yes, but the fed is printing dollars like crazy, over 40 states have $1billion or more deficits for 2011 and can't print money or get fed money to cover unlike last year, the government is still spending like drunken Korean girls, even if the gov custs spending by 50% this year (they won't cut at all, they will only freeze best case scenario) it's not enough.
If they taxed everyone in this country 100% this year, still wouldn't cover our debts..
How is it that most people I know that have decent jobs can't afford health care with less than $1000 deductibles and still barely covers stuff, but Federal employees have policies that cover boob implants and frivolous bullshit and are "rolls royce" type policies, and can retire in their 50's at 75% pension and have full health care. There are no private sector jobs that have anything like this anymore for anyone other than very top level executive status.
I can go on, but then I just sound like an anti-gov anti union loon, which I don't think I am.
sad & depressing
