You owe 34,563.94 in back taxes

That was on Sunday night, 2nd November at 7:41:37 EST. If you have paid please ignore this notice. If not please be advised that your debt is growing due to compound interest. Failure to pay will lead to the loss of your pension.


Breakdown of your tax bill:

1,955.14 War in Iraq
1,323.30 War in Afghanistan and other aspects of War on Terror
(US is the only remaining active participant in the W.O.T.)

The remainder is due to the W Bush tax cuts, and left with interest accruing from the Reagan and Bush Sr. tax cuts in the 1980s, the recent insolvency problems, and there's a bit from the Savings and Loans debacle, even a few bucks for W's own part in that.

Note that this is the amount owed per man woman child and retired person. Unless every one of those pays up the consequences will be severe.

And yet, the liberals think they can add $800 billion in new spending while somehow paying this off.

You hit the nail here:

I don't believe either party can get us out of this mess, but it is pretty clear which one can and which one can't.

As someone on CF expressed it:

Democrats tax and spend
Republicans borrow and spend

Are you suggesting that retired persons are not men and women?

Liberals in Canada had government spending below income after years of deficit.
Now, over a decade now, we had surpluses.
What is United States going to do?
Are they going to rely on short-term surpluses then long term deficit?
