$53 Trillion Dollar Asteroid (...or another take on overspending)

When you take information like this and you add to it the planned estimated bill for the prevention of nonexistent man made global warming, the proposed Global Anti Poverty Bill, intended mandatory universal health, the L.O.S.T. Treaty, and all of the other things.... and this adds up to some real money. However, when total economic meltdown has been achieved... when we have finally broken our economy beyond the point of possible repair... then we will discover the the true purpose of the Federal Reserve as it comes to save us from our own stupidity. I wonder which country will have the most invested in America at that time?

The big probelm is that the candidates are all wanting to increase spending. Obama wants to increase annual spending by 287 billion. Clinton wants to increase annual spending by 212 billion. Even McCain would increase annual spending by 7 billion. Why do these candidates think we need more spending. What we need is less spending. Why do we need the Department of Labor, Commerce, Transportation, Human and Health, Housing and Urban Development, or Agriculture. Before anyone says that all we need to do is get out of Iraq, the Federal government went into debt last year without Iraq.

Thank you for bringing this discussion to my attention..It all just sounds outrageous and a bit scary to think about...I think our country is in big trouble...

Yet another sad refresher on the state-of-the-union. I dunno anymore, Gamer. The few of us that do pay attention to these numbers understand what they mean to the future of our nation - well what's left of it. Since I learned of the NWO and that even our beloved Jimmy Carter was a member, I have had a hard time figuring out how anyone responsible enough to turn America around (i.e. Perot, Paul, etc) would ever be allowed into office. Kinda makes me think deeper about the Kennedy assassination. There is too much greed and power that wants to, and is doing whatever it takes, to make this a one government world. The biggest obstacle to that goal for the longest time was the strength of America and its people. So job #1 had to be to find a way to permanently unroot America's individual AND world strengths. I sincerely believe that the presidents are chosen behind closed doors and that the election process is a matter of motion to provide the illusion that our votes shape the nation. If you look deeply into all the pres's. since Nixon, they all seem to have some sort of relation with the NWO. Favorable relations. This tells me that only those who will support its growth will ever be allowed to win a primary, let alone an election. The party labels mean nothing at this level. "Either you're with us...or you're against us" is the motto. And those against seemingly always fall out of the race early, no matter the support they have from "we, the people." So, yes, the numbers are frightening, but given the general education of the American population, the easy-to-program-into-overspending mindset that is more concerned with the amount of bling they can flash, and a society the poo-poos saving, let alone intelligent personal investments, it is all to easy for NWO to achieve their goal with us doing most of the work for them. Unless there is an all out revolt, I don't see ANY future elected officials doing anything to reverse this trend - it won't line their personal pockets. As to who will own us next...well I'm gonna start ordering my fortune cookies in Mandarin.
