    Believe me, the old saying is true. The first trillion is the hardest.

    Some get the joy of spending it; others get the chore of paying it. This is insane.

    Turning into a political thread I'd say. Probably best to put a sock in this baby.

Money is so noble a medium that is does not compete with guns and it does not make terms with brutality. It will not permit a country to survive as half-property, half-loot.
