The Fiscal Wake Up Tour

On Monday, Oct. 29, U.S. Comptroller General David M. Walker came to the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) for the Maryland stop of the Fiscal Wake-Up Tour, a nationwide series of town hall forums focusing on the threats posed by the nation's long-term fiscal challenges. The event, sponsored by the nonpartisan Concord Coalition, included a panel of analysts from The Brookings Institution and The Heritage Foundation.

Two men wrote a book about 6-7 years ago Donald Trump - "The America We Deserve" & Robert Kiyosaki - "Prophecy". Both said it was one of their favorite books they ever wrote. You know what there worst selling books were? You guessed it... both of those books. It's unfortunate that most people don't want to know the truth & how we want to live for the "here & now." Well, look at what's happening - HERE & NOW!?! We can change this if WE change what we do personally in our lives. Later, PNugg...

David Walker is USA's greatest Patriot.

I wish my country had him as lifetime President

Forget the Obama/Clinton/McCain debacle going on right now. THIS is what EVERY AMERICAN who pays taxes should be watching and listening to. This is one of the most important conversations taking place in our country right now and is related to every single issue we profess to being so concerned about. This is about mathematics, people. You can't keep spending more than you're taking in and we need to start making the difficult, intelligent choices to keep American out of the red!
