Here is a short course on Understanding The United States Debt (101)
I recently ran across an analogy of the US debt and finance plan in a way we all can relate. Let me share the following.
Currently the US tax payers generate roughly $2,170,000,000,000 (Thats Trillion)
Our Federal budget is approx $3,820,000,000,000
Our new debt is approx $1,650,000,000,000
National debt of $14,271,000,000,000
Total budge cuts $38,500,000,000
Now let's remove some zeros and pretend this is a simple household budget.
Annual family income $21,700
Money family spends annualy $38,200
New credit card debt $16,500
Outstanding balance on credit card $142,710.00
Total budget cuts by family $385.00. Are you getting the picture ?
Here is another way to look at the debt ceiling. Let's say you come home from work one day and find there has been a major sewage backup and raw sewage is backed up all the way to the ceiling. What should you do?
1.Raise the ceiling?
2.Pump out the sewage?
Pretty simple isn't it!
