I.O.U.S.A. - A MUST watch!

[The Renegade]

This is an amazing documentary, but scary in its revelation concerning our financial stability. The best part about this documentary: its non-partisan – no finger pointing at Dems or the GOP, just the facts! Everybody needs to sit and watch this. Its 30 min long, but sit through it… it’s a real eye opener; at least it was for me!

Seemed obvious it was leaning a little left. Leadership deficeit's?! Obviously there are things that each administration could have changed but this one seems clear. The other parts of the vid were good, trade etc. I like these types of documentaries which sort of lay it out for you in terms of how things work etc, but I hate when they inject political leanings, when its obvious or not..

Interesting how Sen. Gregg featured at the 11:00 mark, is the same guy that just pulled chocks from the Obama Administration.

Judd Gregg also just lambasted the PrezBO's new 3.5 trillion dollar budget.

I liked it. I think it only seemed left because of the timing of the latest deficits/surpluses, aka Clinton/Bush #2. They pointed out other moments in the little history that had democratic presidents that caused the deficit to soar. This last one just happened to fall under Bush #2. The next couple of years will be the thing to see...

AKA anyone think that Washington can pull it together and come up with a solution for everyone instead of the "i'll scratch your back if you scratch mine" mentality that, in my opinion, caused all this?

It showed where other Pres have run up the deficit, too.

Of course. Neither here nor there, there is a message in there, and that was data before we just tripled our current budget deficit. Today the message is much worse. Far worse.

Having said that, clearly, as admitted by author, this is a left leaning presentation. One startling omission was the fact that Richard Milhous Nixon had a balanced budget, but only William Jefferson Clinton was mentioned.
