Debt

Pick A Number, Any Number

Spin the wheel and spin it harder, round and round she goes where she stops nobody knows

Congress continues to pass outrageous bills, spending like there is no tommorrow and doesn’t care what it owes

The world today revolves around huge imaginary numbers tossed about carelessly providing little or no meaning

The national debt is at 34 trillion due to this administration’s drunken spending, Biden’s policies, war involvement on several fronts, the pandemic, and worthless hand wringing involving greening

A trillion here a billion there, the numbers keep climbing as the Feds continue to print more money

People see the funds awarded to Ukraine, the lifelines thrown to green companies and bucks paid for athletic contracts and they are finally beginning to think it’s not funny

The out of control spending has hit a fever pitch as numbers in the billions and trillions are tossed about like confetti in the wind

The numbers craze has hit the private sector as well with juries awarding lawsuit settlements in the millions just because they want to see a private citizen skinned

83 million was awarded to an individual claiming that she was damaged by the hateful rhetoric of another person over the years

And the judge and jury awarded settlement based on the fact the defendant was rich and the plantiff was quick with the alligator tears

In 1970 the nation’s annual budget was figured at 195.3 billion and that year showed a 3.4 billion surplus

Today there is no budget to speak of as the national debt stands at 34 trillion and unfettered spending continues on purpose

Money continues to flow to pet projects because Congress continuously raises the debt ceiling

Putting a heavy burden on our childrens’ children without remorse or feeling

Congress continues to throw money around like they aren’t working with potentially rubber checks

The spending parade must go on with a show of greed as they pour money into their laundering projects

Recent expenditures include 75 billion more to Ukraine, 151 billion to aid in the immigration parade, and the completely unnecessary 127 billion to help erase college debt

Why give borrowers a penny when they were never coerced to obtain a loan but now they want American workers to forgive and forget

Recently a ball player signed a contract so huge he could give every American citizen a million dollars and still have approximately 440 million left on which to survive

Its now a waiting game for this teetering economy to fail to pay it’s loans and crash dive

The outrageous numbers continue. The Big Mac now is over five dollars as the price of that secret sauce has soared

But to listen to the chief poopy pants, the economy is great he roared

The secret is out. Crush America’s spirit with ridiculous spending, treat illegals better than veterans and buy up all the land that’s been farmed

A big thank you to the forefathers for the second amendment and the fact most of the taxpayers are armed

Money For Nothing And Your Pricks For Free

Congress is currently battling within themselves to decide how much more they want to put America in hock

What’s another 1.9 trillion anyway? The new President had promised payment so what’s with this Congressional deadlock?

One group says turn the money loose, we’ll worry about the consequences later

“We have the votes” they howl to their delight and the smile of the newly elected dictator

The other group thinks this might be too much money, funds that America doesn’t have

The USA’s debt wound is bleeding profusely and for that there is no salve

The debt is outpacing economic growth at a rate last seen in 1946

To right this ship drastic cuts will be required in government spending slashing pet projects in spite of the pain this inflicts

Fighting the pandemic hasn’t been easy with every unfounded lockdown adding to the nation’s blight

Led by a very small man holding a personal grudge writing counter productive executive orders adding to the nation’s plight

Advancing his agenda to the praise of his toadies he figures the best way to move forward is to kill jobs

His complete blindness to the future of America is caused by his own petty hatred when in reality it’s his own citizens he robs

His promised stoppage of the virus has turned into chaos as people are unsure of the number of masks they need to wear and where and when they’ll get their free arm prick

Sign up slots open when word of a vaccine delivery might show up, but to get the shot before Christmas you need to sign up quick

And speaking of pricks, inside the Washington beltway the pricks are thick as thieves

And will stay that way as long as in the Washington system the oblivious citizen believes
