OMG this is really getting out of control! The deficit spending is going crazy. I watched the 2 latest episodes of Hidden Secrets of Money of Mike Maloney this week and it is quite worrisome. You should watch it if you have time. Nice post as usual @geke.

I haven't watched it, so yeah - I'll check it out! Thanks!

Sure!

It's incredible not just clean!
