Enjoy. My Republican Congressional Nominee is going to be running a premiere of this. Afterwards, there will be a live discussion with Buffet, David Walker (former Comptroller of the US), and Pete Peterson (Commerce Sec under Nixon), all of whom make appearances in this film.
Riches are not from abundance of worldly goods, but from a contented mind.

Looks good. The debt is 9 trillion and growing. Future obligations total 53 trillion. The problem I have about the future obligations part is that the bloated military budget is not understood to be largely unnecessary. Much of the military budget supports growing corporate welfare programs for Haliburton and other corporations.

No discussions of cutting or eliminating govt programs should even be discussed before "govt entitlement program" is properly defined. Cut warfare first, then welfare, social security, medicare etc...
