You know what's really sad? They are short $200 MILLION for salaries. Sounds like a lot of money, doesn't it? Yet, they can go HUNDREDS of BILLIONS of dollars and even pounce the national debt into the TRILLIONS, for many things our country doesn't need. Yea, some people really have their priorities straight.
$200,000,000 (200 Million)
1/5th of 1 Billion dollars
1/50th of 10 Billion dollars
1/500th of 100 Billion dollars
1/5,000th of 1 Trillion dollars
Sorry, but I have very little respect for many of our Washington Leaders. Call me bitter and pissed off. That's OK. Washington is bankrupting our country, instilling an "entitlement" mentality and dependency on our citizens, and our country will pay the price for generations to come. And the ONLY truly SELFLESS group of Americans, willing to look the other way and still believe in the greatness of our heritage, our constitution, and our freedoms; (Our service men and women); are the ones who will get SCREWED the hardest. Sorry folks, I have to say what I believe is the truth. Mike....
