National Debt, Buyers & Sellers (your money)
One of the reason our country is over nine trillion dollars in debt is based on the attitude one takes when making purchases.
When a person is buying something for themselves, what are the concerns? Simple – the buyer is concerned with both quality and price.
Please note however, when a person is using their own money buying something for someone else, the concern is mainly price.
Please observe, when a person is spending someone else’s money on something for themselves the concern is mainly quality.
And here is the rub, when a buyer is spending someone else’s money on something for someone else, he is generally not concerned with quality or price.
And this, boys and girls, is how OUR government spends OUR money.
P.S. Do upcoming health care discussions come to mind?
The national debt counter is spinning so fast, it’s smoking! Bring out the beany baby collection for barter when it takes $100 for a loaf of bread. Us hoboes travel light, so we can’t barter much. I have to carry a couple of thousand pocket money. Keep a tin of crackers and sardines in your tote bag, and a can of beer.
