www.uuforum.org/deficit.htmWhen Clinton left office we had a surplus of 236 billion. Within 4 years the Bush Admin spent 648 billion. That $648,000,000,000, $443,835,616 a day In 2004, the average house cost $264,540 usgovinfo.about.com/od/consumerawareness/a/avghomeprice04.htmTo put that into perspective, from the money we spent, we could have bought homes for 1,677 a day. That would have been a little under two and half million homes in 4 years. By best estimates in 2005 there were three quarters of a million people that were currently homeless. www.naeh.org/content/article/detail/1443I wonder if they would have liked a house, or three?
