		<description><![CDATA[If Adam Smith, father of modern economics, were alive today in America, he&#8217;d have a heart attack. We are facing a national debt crisis that&#8217;s unprecedented in size and scope: $12.3 trillion (link warning: may cause sudden depression). Each citizen is responsible for about $40,000 of it. Well, we all know that most Americans do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Apparently $12 billion wasn&#8217;t enough to keep GMAC afloat, and now it&#8217;s asking the Treasury Department for more bailout money. The government and taxpayers already own 35% of the company. It continues to bleed: GMAC, which lost $3.9 billion in the second quarter of this year, got into financial trouble largely to many sub-prime mortgages [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So deep down I&#8217;m okay with President Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize. The peace prize has lost its prestige long ago when the likes of Carter and Arafat and Gore received it. The peace committee is obviously agenda driven, and that agenda has no relation to peace. At least President Obama didn&#8217;t win the [...]]]></description>

For the month of July, the U.S. deficit grew by $181 billion! Because of the recession, tax revenues have significantly decreased from households as well as corporations. [...]]]></description>

But if recent Treasury [...]]]></description>

The depressed economy means much lower tax revenues from families and corporations, add on to the fact that we&#8217;re still fighting a war in Afghanistan, plus a $700 billion in financial bailout and a $787 billion stimulus [...]]]></description>

As of first quarter China holds a record $768 billion of U.S. Treasuries, and the Chinese are very worried about Washington&#8217;s budget deficit and liberal monetary policy causing hyperinflation down the road.

This is a dangerous path. What&#8217;s next? Nationalization of the oil companies?]]></description>
