MONEY MANAGEMENT

MONEY MANAGEMENT
The bit of political type news that Linden heard Monday centered mostly upon the “budget” that Obama was submitting to Congress. Little of what was heard was complimentary. His spending is of an amount that would cause the excesses of Bush to look like the bank account of the average homeless person.

There was little time on Monday to plan this posting so it will be used to point out just a couple of areas where spending could easily be decreased without there be a negative effect on the nation.

Discretionary type spending within the White House itself is, at best, disgusting. Each of the “Czars” should be terminated. The personal staff of Mrs. Obama should be reduced by, say 90%. In other areas, the Pelosi plane should be grounded. The budget should call for a spending level of less than the previous year, not a 3% increase. A movement should be started to cause federal unemployment to match, on a percentage basis, that in the private sector. These reasonable suggestions are presented to you without Linden performing an in depth analysis.
