Brown takes a whipping as England runs out of money...
The words are harsh but true...and apply equally to the current cabal in our government (ahem....BOTH parties).

Spending our way to prosperity does not work? I am shocked! Has anyone let team Obama know about this?
BigP, we are in serious trouble. The trouble will build slowly, but the cumulative effect will be horrendous for the few of us that pay the way for the rest.

Japan tried it. I wish we could just ask them what their opionion of President Obama's economic strategy is. I think they would probably sound a lot like the guy in the Vid.

Take NYC as an example. According to their mayor, of the 8 million living there, only 41,000 contribute in a significant way through the amount of taxes they pay. That is an extreme example but an accurate one.
The 10 percent of us that pay for others homes, schools, medical care, food, sports teams, transportation etc. are the group I am referring to.
I am confused by your confusion.
