A Conspiracy of Counterfeiters

What should be done to high officials of the U.S. government who consciously set out to dilute and destroy the savings and income of working Americans? What should be done to those who have sworn an oath to defend the Constitution and then steal the wealth of citizens by secretly manipulating the value of the currency, the store of wealth upon which those people depend? 

Is inducing inflation – debauching the currency, the systematic and secret theft of the savings of citizens – a legitimate policy option for the Federal Reserve? Has Congress authorized official thievery? 

Who do these economists think they are?

The government is corrupt beyond the point of rehabilitation.

Simple Math

.                Simple Math         

U.S. income: $2,170,000,000,000
Federal budget: $3,820,000,000,000
New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000
National debt: $14,271,000,000,000
Recent budget cut: $ 38,500,000,000  

                 Mind boggling numbers, to be sure.
        But remove eight zeros and look at them as
        a family budget. 

Total annual income for the Jones family: $21,700
Amount of money the Jones family spent: $38,200
Amount of new debt added to the credit card: $16,500
Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710
Amount cut from the budget: $385 

  A friend sent this clever illustration of nonsensical federal budgeting, but we don't know to whom to attribute it.
