At the Perot site, at the first of the Budget Deficit Charts, the opening sentence reads:
The federal budget challenges faced by the citizens of the United States of America start and end with spending.

Nice presentation, Tschäff! I have to watch it more times to get it all in my head. I like the "there is one employer" approach.

Here is another post I think you might like.
