If you're talking about becoming a billionaire, then you need to invent a new Google or Johnson Johnson.

If you look at the US budget and assume that the political classes and the voting public supports more debt and spending thus bringing us to insolvency, monetizing of the debt, default, dumping of the dollar as the World's reserve currency or some combination thereof and obviously, terrifying levels of inflation.
BTW, In another thread where the Wambulance was being called upon by NT's legions of left wing, MSNBC talking points readers, in response to a Congressman suggesting that Ronald Reagan's face be placed on the $50, I joked that President Obama can on the upcoming hundred million dollar banks notes (which would of course only be able to get you a loaf of bread or a head of cabbage after standing in line for hours). I mentioned Obama mostly because it would maximize the wambulance factor but if/when this country starts to just tack zeros on its bank notes, we could blame almost every policy maker that has been in Washington since WWII and more importantly, the voting public for insisting that their own provincial and/or parochial special interests never have to make due with less funding.
To paraphrase Kent Brockman when he assigned blame for Springfield economic woes, I place the blame squarely on you, the voter.
Was that the question though??Originally Posted by Nktran001
