Publisher Description: - For every official the United States public has elected, its government supports 5000 unelected employees. - $1 billion is the cost to destroy $16 billion in ammunition unneeded by the U.S. military. - $20,973,890,000 is the total taxpayer cost to the Treasury of gambling losses deducted by millionaires. With easy-to-follow graphs and charts, as well as 20 uproarious full-color editorial cartoons drawn from the prior work of Pulitzer Prize-winning artist Michael Ramirez, Full Faith and Credit locates the tipping point of the $19.4 trillion (and counting) national debt crisis and offers ideas on how to fix it. |
