And we are worried about 20 or 30 trillion of spending over the next half century? Its absurd. Yes, the numbers are large. Right now things look grim because people are unemployed and people are buying imports instead of domestic goods with their earnings but turn off CNN, Fox, MSNBC, all these guys and stay on the politician­s to get folks employed again, with everyone working the government coffers will grow full.
