From Our Local Ag Supplier:

ONE OF OUR CUSTOMERS GAVE ME AN EXPLANATION OF OUR NATIONAL DEBT IN SIMPLE ENGLISH.

• United States Tax Revenue ------------------------------------- $ 2,170,000,000,000 
• Federal Budget ------------------------------------------------------- 3,820,000,000,000 
• New Debt Added This Year- --------------------------------------- 1,650,000,000,000 
• National Debt -------------------------------------------------------- 16,271,000,000,000 
• Recent Budget Cut ------------------------------------------------------- 38,500,000,000 

NOW REMOVE THE 8 ZEROS AND LET'S PRETEND IT'S A HOUSEHOLD BUDGET

• Annual Family Income ----------------------------------------------------------- $ 21,700
• Money the Family Spends Per Year -------------------------------------------- 38,200
• Annual Debt Added to Credit Cards -------------------------------------------- 16,500
• Old Credit Card Debt ------------------------------------------------------------- 162,710
• Family Budget Cut ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 385

OUR POLITICIANS ARE PROUD OF THE RECENT BUDGET CUT, BUT AS YOU CAN SEE, IT DOES NOT AMOUNT TO "SQUAT."

You have to admit, this guy knows his fertilizer.
