Fri, 18 Mar 2005 15:47:41 GMT U.S. National Debt Clockvia Kjell Olsen2622 days agoThis just about choked me: the only word that comes to mind in expressing this sort of thing is, well, fuck!
The estimated population of the United States is 295,692,676
so each citizen’s share of this debt is $26,300.01.
The National Debt has continued to increase an average of
$2.35 billion per day since September 30, 2004!
Concerned? Then tell Congress and the White House! -

Wed, 09 Feb 2005 07:44:25 GMT The New York Times > National > New White House Estimate Lifts Drug Benefit Cost to $720 Billionvia Kjell Olsen2660 days ago720 billion is the new 400 billion, now that the Bush agency has come out at almost twice the proposed cost of the newly approved medicare program.
Mr. Emanuel said: “The new cost estimate destroys the credibility of the Bush administration. Officials were so far off in estimating the cost of the Medicare law. Why should we believe what they say about the financial problems of Social Security?”
Representative Pete Stark of California, the senior Democrat on the Ways and Means Subcommittee on Health, said: “I told you so. We can’t trust numbers provided by administration officials. They’ll say anything to get a bill passed. And if the new drug benefit costs more, the extra money goes to their friends in the pharmaceutical industry, not to senior citizens.”When will we learn, this guy just isn’t right for us?
