I.O.U.S.A. - About the 54 Trillion dollar USA deficit
Cost-cutting? From a government?
And the problem may be big in the USA, but it is world-wide in scope. My government managed to find £ 250 billion from nowhere
And the European governments are busy printing more Euros as fast as the presses will run. The Russians are dumping $15 billion a week into their economy and I have no clue what is going on in China other than they are in trouble too.
India is Not Spared either. Jobs Cuts, Salary Cuts, Price increase (Mainly on imported products as Rs. get Weeker). The Day doesn't looks far away when we may have to put lipstick on a Pig and be Happy and Entertained rather than going out for a some Fun or Shopping.
