We keep hearing the story that it will take generations for our descendants to  pay off  the debt that our government is accruing to stimulate the economy.

A question has occurred to me.  At this very moment the legendary investor, Warren Buffet, is investing his money in some of the same places that our government is.  If his track record is any indication, he will become even more fabulously wealthy because of these investments.  If he wanted to leave this to his descendants, they would be taken care of for generations.

Why, then, will the same actions by our government leave the taxpayer’s descendants deeply in debt? Why aren’t we asking how Warren Buffet’s descendants are going to pay off their debt?

These are actually serious questions.  If you start thinking about answering these questions, you will learn a lot.

Republicans who claim to be masters of business, and many of them are in their private lives, know how to make money in private business, some even do it honestly.  Somehow they forget everything they know when they try to run the government.
