Tales of Our Unholy Deficit spending!

Government Spending 2 times the average Peace Time RATE by Pissed Off Preacher Tom!

Dearly Beloved Citizens of this Great Fiscal Flock,
Today I come not with plague nor pestilence, not with war nor recession, but with something far scarier:

A $1.9 TRILLION yearly deficit spending... in peacetime.

Let the congregation say: ā€œThat’s a whole lotta of moly and Holy!ā€

Now, if we were in a pandemic, a world war, or fending off an alien invasion with flaming dollar bills, I’d say, ā€œSpend away, my good government!ā€
But friends—there ain’t no locusts, no frogs, no Wall Street collapse. Just regular ol’ Tuesday... and we’re still BLEEDING CASH!

🧮 Preach It Plain: The Good Book of Budget Woes

The Deficit is 6.2% of GDP — that’s more than double the average over the last 50 years.
We’re talking the highest deficit outside of war or national panic, and yet Congress is YOLOing money like the Earth is on fire and they have one week to live.

ā€œThe Lord said unto the lawmaker: Stop. Spending. Stuff. We Ain’ got.. thus it's not yo money!ā€ — Book of Unholy Numbers -4:17

😬 But I hear you ask "Why, Reverend Pissed off Tom 3rd president of USA? What Demon Possesses Our Ledger?"

Well, I’ll tell you:

  • Interest payments have become our new golden calf. Over $1.1 trillion just to service the debt!

  • Boomers are Bomming Social Security and the fund is sweating babies.

  • Tax revenue ain’t keeping up, cause some folks got more deductions than the IRS got patience.

  • And worst of all, ain’t nobody in D.C. got the courage to say ā€œnoā€ unless it’s to each other.

āœļø Closing Benediction: Lord, Deliver Us from Debt

So I say unto thee: This is not a crisis budget—it’s a crisis of self-control!
We’ve built a bonfire of borrowed bills and now we’re roasting marshmallows on the national credit card.

But fear not, my frugal flock! For with prayer, spreadsheets, and a holy dose of common sense, we can still:

  • Reform what needs reformin’

  • Trim what needs trimmin’

  • And balance the books before Babylon comes a-knockin’!

Can I get a Debt-Free Hallelujah!?

Amen, and audit. šŸ™ŒšŸ“‰
