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: āThatās 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, Iād say, āSpend away, my good government!ā
But friendsāthere aināt no locusts, no frogs, no Wall Street collapse. Just regular olā Tuesday... and weāre still BLEEDING CASH!
š§® Preach It Plain: The Good Book of Budget Woes
The Deficit is 6.2% of GDP ā thatās more than double the average over the last 50 years.
Weāre 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.
āThe Lord said unto the lawmaker: Stop. Spending. Stuff. We Ainā got.. thus it's not yo money!ā ā Book of Unholy Numbers -4:17
š¬ But I hear you ask "Why, Reverend Pissed off Tom 3rd president of USA? What Demon Possesses Our Ledger?"
Well, Iāll 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 aināt keeping up, cause some folks got more deductions than the IRS got patience.
And worst of all, aināt nobody in D.C. got the courage to say ānoā unless itās to each other.
āļø Closing Benediction: Lord, Deliver Us from Debt
So I say unto thee: This is not a crisis budgetāitās a crisis of self-control!
Weāve built a bonfire of borrowed bills and now weāre 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 reforminā
Trim what needs trimminā
And balance the books before Babylon comes a-knockinā!
Can I get a Debt-Free Hallelujah!?
Amen, and audit. šš
