So as a single person household I owe $11,000 for the current bailout

[stray cat]

And an additional $5-6000 for the previous debt. So excluding what I owe for the Iraq war which I think is not included in the deficit - I now have $17,000 that Bush has put on my credit card even though I am fiscally responsible and have managed to not generally carry a credit card balance. Can I declare bankruptcy? :mad:

3. Your tab: $33,333.33

For the Republican national debt of $10T.


Oh, and don't forget interest over time. Make it $50K.


Have a nice day. :)

Now that sounds like a government response - especially the smiley face!

11. There's some good news...

Palin's tab is $350K for a family of seven.

5. Yes, but now banks will have money to lend to banks to make more money

by selling you junk bonds and jacking up your CC rates to 35% the first time you're a day late with a payment.

6. You should be happy! It's for your own good! Just ask the bankers and politicians.

Happy Days Are Here Again!! For the bankers and politicians.

8. No, you owe about $30,000 on the national debt, and will owe $2300 on the $700 billion.

Thanks to Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush, and Dubya.

9. I thought the debt was 400 billion but maybe thats just for this year?

[TexasObserver]

14. That's the DEFICIT this year. Add all DEFICITS up, and you get the National DEBT.

Each budget has a surplus of a deficit. Reagan, Bush I, and Bush II always had DEFICITS, so the National Debt is almost entirely THEIR deficits, added up.

In the past 30 plus years, the only presidents to ever balance the budget were Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton. The GOP is fiscally irresponsible and has been since Reagan took office.

10. Shut up and be happy.

This is just the first couple of bailouts. More yet to come. You haven't seen anything yet.

12. Ya' remember that Social Security money W wanted to go to Wall Street

He got it didn't he!
Remember when Bin Laden said he'd bankrupt us? He did it!
Remember when Norquist said he wanted to drown the government in a bathtub? He turned on the tap.

13. Call up your bank...

and ask them if you can borrow money to pay your share of bailout.
