Just had a great lunch at Jame Hoban's. Feeling good after 2 Dogfish Ale's.
I've been wanting to see that. Loved the book The Hot Zone.Me and juli are about to see Contagion. Will report back.
The buying power of $10 is like 2 gallons of gas.

The buying power of $100,000 is like 20000 gallons of gas.
2 gallons will get you 50-60 miles. 20000 will get you 500,000 miles. Is completely different order of magnitude.
I forget the term, but the relative value of money isn't linear. Fewer entities can muster larger sums and whatnot.
I would declare the Household bankrupt unless they had a huge stockpile of liquid assets but the Government of one of the largest economies on Earth is going to get a pass. It can print money/nuke it's creditors.
I'm glad to see that someone else is annoyed when people who can balance a checkbook claim to know how to solve government's debt issues.

Except, it says nothing about balancing the debt, and is instead trying to put the debt issue in a manner that most people can at least comprehend, which, right now, they don't thanks to republican directed emasculation of our education system.
A thorough housecleaning of the budget should be done, analyze the cost/benefit of every single dollar spent. Not on the basis of political popularity. There is some crap that is funded and barely used, the Selective Service (draft board) has a 20 million dollar annual budget for... what?Lay everyone off including the military. Cut all social services. Continue to print money. BAM debt issue solved.
