The President's $100 million Budget Cut Scam



 Author Unknown

President Obama ordered the cabinet to cut $100,000,000.00 ($100
million) from the $3,500,000,000,000.00 ($3.5 trillion) federal
budget.
 I'm so impressed by this sacrifice that I have decided to do the
same thing with my personal budget. I spend about $2,000 a month on
groceries, household expenses, medicine, utilities, etc., but it's
time to get out the budget cutting axe, go through my expenses, and
cut back.

 I'm going to cut my spending at exactly the same ratio (1/35,000)
of my total budget. After doing the math, it looks like instead of
spending $2,000 a month, I'm going to have to cut that number by six
cents. Yes, I'm going to have to get by with $1999.94, but that's
what sacrifice is all about.

 I'll just have to do without some things, that are, frankly,
luxuries – six cents worth.

 Did this President actually think no one would do the math?
ludicrous.
