Now let’s compare that to the national
debt. If you want to get really concerned look at the debt clock at http://www.usdebtclock.org/
So what does this all mean? It would
take all of the farm income for 19 years just to cover the current year’s
budget deficit. And, that number is growing. If that is not scary
enough, it would take over 794 years of all the farm income in the United
States just to cover our national debt.
Politicians need to do something to reverse
this trend but it is not politically correct so they do nothing.
Eventually we are going to see higher taxes and less government services.
I hope they fix it before it’s not too late.
