I am cutting back and you may want to also...
President Obama
ordered the cabinet to cut $100,000,000.00 ($100 million) from
the $3,500,000,000,000.00 ($3.5 trillion) federal budget.
I'm so impressed by
this sacrifice that I have decided to do the samething with my personal
budget. I spend about $2,000 a month on groceries, household
expenses, medicine, utilities, etc., but it's time to get out the budget
cutting axe, go through my expenses, and cut back.
I'm going to cut my
spending at exactly the same ratio (1/35,000) of my total budget. After
doing the math, it looks like instead of spending $2,000 a month, I'm
going to have to cut that number by six cents. Yes, I'm going to have to
get by with $1999.94, but that's what sacrifice is all about.
I'll just have to do
without some things, that are, frankly, luxuries -
six cents worth.
Did this President
actually think no one would do the math? Please send this to everyone on
your list so people understand how idiotic a $100 million cut is in a
$3.5 trillion budget - ludicrous!!
"There are two
ways to conquer and enslave a nation...
One is by sword...The
other is by debt."
