America's Ticking Deficit Time Bomb

After touching upon some of these issues, I then directed his attention toward the clock just to the left of this commentary that runs every second of every day. That clock measures our collective level of indebtedness without incorporating the costs of our entitlement programs.

I informed my son that the compounding cost of the debt was nothing more than a choke hold on opportunities for him and all of those in his generation and other generations to come. 

The hacks in Washington on both sides of the aisle who display little regard for these debts do my son, your children, and all of us a level of disservice that is indescribable.

Last week President Clinton informed America that managing a budget and the deficit is about arithmetic. What is the math game being played with our entitlement programs? It is spelled P-O-N-Z-I. Many a politician will continue to play the fear mongering that is core to the continuation of the Ponzi-style financing for our entitlement programs. Ponzi schemes ALWAYS fail and nations fail along with them. Who will be the adults in Washington and elsewhere who will introduce meaningful budgetary and entitlement reforms for my son, your children, and the future of America?

On that note, I encourage you to take the mere few minutes to view this clip which highlights the critical issues and numbers embedded within our nation's deficit.  Watch this clip and share it with your friends, families, and neighbors.

Politicians DEFINITELY lie BUT the numbers NEVER lie.

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick . . . . (I encourage you to expand the screen so you can view the data and fully appreciate the impact of this clip)

Navigate accordingly.
