It looks like the House is going to pass the Senate "fix", so here is where we stand:
* U.S. Tax revenue: $2,170,000,000,000 * Fed budget: $3,820,000,000,000 * New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000 * National debt: $14,271,000,000,000 * Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000
Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:
* Annual family income: $21,700 * Money the family spent: $38,200 * New debt on the credit card: $16,500 * Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710 * Total budget cuts so far: $38.50
Nice way to put it into perspective Mac. Now if you made the 142,710 a mortgage, the only thing different than a lot of Americans actual budgets would be that the income is low
