Slainte! St. Patrick’s Day Beer Video… Spending & “Drunk with Debt”
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on March 17, 2011
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to our spendthrift politicians and their unrealistic, unsustainable addiction to spending. And spending. And spending.
The devastating harm to our economy should be obvious, Congress Critters — pay attention to the glasses of beer in the video as they show the increase of racked-up debt for the past century and our current mess under Team Obama.
H/t Big Government.
Slainte!
Drunk with Debt (a St. Patrick’s Day special)
Video summary from the video’s creator, Bankrupting America:
Background: Years of unsustainable government spending by Republicans and Democrats are bankrupting our country. Debt is a symptom of such overspending. And the US gross debt has reached $14 trillion — the size of the US economy. This has only happened once before in American history: World War II.
But cheer up and don’t let the sobering facts get you down on St. Patrick’s Day! Because the Bankrupting America community is getting the message out that Washington must cut spending. You can help by sharing this video now!
