“If we could manage our own finances the way the Congress does the nation’s, we’d all be living in high cotton and eating high on the hog.”

The golden rule, he who has the gold makes the rule ? Through fraud and being in bed with the gangsters, O, banksters, they live in high cotton and eat high on the hog ! Drunk with power and greed ! Smiling, not so much now, as they read this blog !

If the 'we', was limited to a few and they spent endlessly with no paying back having anything to do with the endless free flow, the quote and concept gets 5 plus stars. If the reality were, every one managed their own finances the way the Congress does the nation's - the incentive to work would be gone and inflation would be far worse than the Weirmar Republic's example was. In that case I would have to give the quote a thumb's down..

Mike's right. We ARE managing our finances like Congress -- everyone is completely in debt! The free lunch only lasts so long. "Let them eat cake." ... it's only a matter of time...
