This is exactly what I’ve been thinking since the first Spendulus last September/October. I’ve actually begun spending money on things that (a) I’ve been wanting, (b) things that I really ought to have if everything goes to hell; because I figure that savings will be worthless after the administration/Congress hyperinflate the currency.

Earnest Zedillo and Mexico got out of their fiscal cisis in 1994 because President Mr. Bill Cliton GAVE them hundreds of millions of our tax dollars. Maybe even a few billion, I'm a little fuzzy on the details after 15 years.
I'm just guessing that Mexico is not about to return the favor any time soon.

The short answer is it can't be paid for, nor do they intend it to ever be. We are in astronomical debt as a nation already. This is just an extreme push by the left using what's left of the faith in the dollar to consolidate State supremacy over the individual.

"The end is going to be a disaster for the dollar," Schiff said. "The world is going to stop enabling us . . . and we're going to be drowning in a sea of our own worthless currency."
Obama has urged Americans of a need to change course, using the analogy of a "bus heading toward a cliff." Seeing the market as capable of recuperating itself, Schiff said, "Barack Obama isn't changing course, he's stepping on the gas pedal."
Too much a fan of his day job, Schiff's focus is now on expanding his business from six offices to a possible 30 worldwide. Schiff's plans may be put on hold for now, as his expansion relies heavily on the state of the U.S. economy.
"There might not be enough Americans with money left (to invest)," he said.

The world is worried about us paying...how about them paying for NATO, UN costs, Iraqi costs, costs where we have bases around the world protecting their useless asses?
Once they pony up the dough about “paying” the costs for our dead GI’s on foreign soil, they have the right to ask the Q. If not, they can F*** themselves.
To: SunkenCiv
Yeah, well guess what world, WE are worried about that too.

Explain, to this old couutry boy, how that works. You don’t increase GDP but you increase the dollars that it represents, what does that result in?
