Cut back like little o ... Thanks John Bob L!







Leave it to a Md. Pk Urchin, ex-Marine, retired postmaster to use common sense like our pusa:

>    I 'm cutting back and you may want to also....
>I 'm going to bite the bullet, too!!!!
>>
>>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,  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 food 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? Please
>>send this to everyone on your list so people understand how idiotic a
>>$100 million cut is in a $3.5 trillion budget – ludicrous!!!!!!!
