so, we have huge deficits that are driving down our dollar, and driving away investors-which has effects on growing our jobs here. so, what does our govt do to solve this problem? more spending, which creates a bigger deficit, whiche means less people wanting to invest in this country. after all, every time we borrow for our budget, someone is buying our bonds and such-we're asking countries to invest, while piling more mistakes on ones already made.
and now more spending passed after this 'stimulus' package he signed last tuesday...debt on top of the debt that's already made things difficult. tell me folks...if you want to have more money at the end of the month-do you get another credit card? ask for a raise? or do you cut your discretionary spending?

cut spending ain't no one getting a raise
