[SEDS-discuss] interesting read

[Jim Volp]

The following article is very interesting read:

I was a bit in shock with the White House OMB
chart though: are US citizens aware of the amount
of their tax dollar that is being wasted on interest?

I didn't want to put it like this at first, but I guess
there really is no other way of putting it.

I mean if I would loose 10% of my salary on
interest..... that is a lot! Let alone 20% in 2080!

Don't take me wrong, I am not an economist and
I can imagine there is a difference between an
individual having debt and a country, but it really
just doesn't seem to be justified to loose so much
of your buying power......

If anyone can enlighten me, thanks!
