Not feeling it today

I don't have an episode in me today. The weather is just too nice and we're off to enjoy the sun. I'll get an episode posted shortly.

I haven't been listening to podcasts for the last week. I'm taking a bit of a break and letting my favorites pile up.

If you haven't seen it check out the Frontline special on the U.S. deficit. You can watch the whole show on their web site.

Basically, to the U.S. is running huge deficits to take care of our aging population. We are borrowing from China and Saudi Arabia to keep living beyond our means.  There are some hard choices coming. Probably the best thing our creditors can do for us is to cut off the money which will force us into financial rehab.
