Forking over the cash

That's what 600 bucks and 1 cent looks like, very beautiful... until you have to give it away.

(added the 1 cent for funny effects)

It's gone now. Gave it to the UPS guy, (well here it's called Muskoka Delivery Servces). But I'll be getting it back + profit. Rebuilding a machine for someone.

Nah, it's canadian dollars. Don't worry, though! In a few years, it'll be worth as much as our money

I just thought I'd use it in my Monopoly game, since it didn't look real anyway.

Well our dollar is doing pretty well.

No wait, it's the US dollar going down, because of bush.

Yes, sadly, as our fed. reserve has said, having a high debt doesn't exactly create an environment supportive of job growth, which is needed to improve the economy. Deficit spending should be a last resort, not a policy, it doesn't work well with our credit and therefor our debt interest rates(and in turn, foreign investment looks elsewhere) It could be worse, at least Mr. Greenspan is in control of the fed. reserve. *sigh - Greenspan

You're telling me, all we ever do is pay interest. Every year, no president wants to spend any more than necessary on the debt, 7% of our expenses just to pay interest this time I believe. I think, if they don't start paying it off soon, I'll just keep that 7% of MY money, since they don't want to actually pay it off, just continue to spend MY money with no hope or intent of paying it off.

The deficit is good for us.

It's like Flinstones vitamins or drinking milk.
