Governmental Accounting Explained: let’s add, subtract, multiply, divide, and make up numbers as we go along….

You think you suck at math?!  Check this video out!

It’s the “new math” of our U.S. government:  add, subtract, multiply, divide, and make up numbers as you go along….Make the numbers work by making up numbers.  How ingenious.

Of course, we all know how the national debt and the annual deficits will be addressed in the future.  The U.S. government will print more and more money, driving down the purchasing power of the dollar, driving up prices, and shrinking the value of the dollar, in order for the government to pay back $14 trillion in debt with pennies on the dollar!  This new math is brought to you by our Congress and our President.

What a great country America is…if you happen to be rich.
