"Obama’s Budget: ‘Interest Payments Will Exceed Defense Budget’ in 2019”
Two years ago in the blog (on a Movable Type server) I stated that the INTEREST on the debt would pay for 15 F-35 fighters a week. I thought I had to be wrong. But I was not. We could afford to make 2 MILLION Americans physicians EVERY YEAR (university, med school, internship, and residency WITH THE INTEREST (in which case Obamacare would be nearly a moot controversy). That is one of every 10 college students.
$10.6 Billion a week! At $35 million a copy, that’s 302 F-35’s a week. In 6 months we could replace the entire F-16 fleet, and end the program. 2 Nimitz class nuclear aircraft carriers A WEEK!
Half of all Medicare Expenditures!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ADMINISTRATION?
The bigger the government which CREATES NOTHING gets, the worse this is going to be.
PERIOD.
