I recommend adding more big government programs so America will go bankrupt even quicker.

106 billion for unemployment insurance
125 billion for federal worker pensions
108 billion food stamps and food assistance
191 billion welfare
total including housing assistance 588 billion

fastest growing item is one of the most productive government programs ever - interest

budgeted at just 250 billion, but doubles in 3 years to 510 billion due to higher expected rates, this is why administration's attempted spin is "balanced excluding interest", this is net by the way, so it adds back interest received by the gov't

medicare grows over 10% per year in the future, to 629 billion in 2014

this is a disgrace, easy to blame liberal pols, but I don't see Republicans talking about medicare cuts

I broke down and cried. If I think about my Grandson I may have a mental health break down.
