Obviously, this is one of your interests. As to increasing funding of libraries. WHERE DO YOU SUGGEST THE MONEY COME FROM?

Cut funding for schools, cut funding for military, cut funding for roads, parks, social security, medicare, sunrail etc etc etc etc. Unless we choose to print money-QUANTITATIVE EASING, the only option is to cut other expenses or to increase taxes

FACTS I'VE FOUND SHOCKING. We hear over and over again that Obama added TEN TRILLION DOLLARS to the national debt. A trillion bucks while we throw the term around, the number is so huge we simply cannot put our minds around it.

Our press has deliberately misinformed us. We hear that China is our largest creditor. THE FACT is that we owe slightly more to the Japanese then to China. THE SHOCK is that TOGETHER Japan and China hold slightly less that 20% of our national debt. SOCIAL SECURITY HOLDS 42% OF THE NATIONAL DEBT. This is NUTS. We trusted our government to hold OUR MONEY and they spent it. Also, interesting, if you were to lend 45 years of your saved money to anyone would you accept that the BORROWER set the interest rate that they will pay?
