The economy? It sucks - and getting suckier

Former presidential economic advisor Larry Summers says that the United States may well be heading back into recession. He gives a double-dip recession a one-in-three chance. So … we’re starting off with good news today, right?

But wait! There’s more! If you call within the next 12 minutes we have operators standing who are eager to tell you that just as soon as Dear Ruler signed the debt limit increase the United States started borrowing again… and within our days the national debt shot up to $238 billion. That means that we owe more than the total value of goods and services produced in this country over the course of a year.

Amazing. And you know who is going to pay this back, don’t you? Your children.

And grandchildren.
