Big Red Car huddled in front of a fire in the 37F ATX, brrrr. Today we talk budget, budget of the USA.
OK, so the dirty little secret is that we don’t really have a comprehensive budget to run the USA; we have a series of Appropriations Bills — twelve to be exact.
Huh, Big Red Car?
It looks so peaceful, doesn’t it?
Yes, so, let’s dig into it, shall we?
The US budget, Big Red Car? Couldn’t you come up with anything more boring?
Big Red Car here on a perfectly delightful Texas day — convertible weather, y’all.
So, today, we chat about the US budget. [Boring, Big Red Car. Can we talk about … anything … else? No, dear reader, please be quiet and eat your vegetables. Act like an adult.]
