subject: The debt

Household analogy to US Debt: 
Remove 8 zeros from the US numbers for the mythical Jones family.
This year, the Jones family spent: $38,200
Total family income: $21,700
New debt added to the credit card: $16,500

 it doesn't include about $1,000,000 (scaled down by eight zeros) in future
 promises for Social Security and Medicare in excess of the future taxes
for  Social Security and Medicare. That's how truly profligate Obama, Bush
and the  rest of the idiots in Washington, D. C.
