This has been doing the rounds for a while, so I thought I'd translate it to UK standards
- UK Tax Revenue 2010 £548,000,000,000
- Uk State Budget 2010 £660,000,000,000
- New Uk State Debt 2010 £112,000,000,000
- National Debt including PFI and Pensions liablities 2010 £2,990,000,000,000
Now let's pretend that the UK is a family, living in a rented home. Here's the same figures, reduced to hammer home the point
- Family Income 2010 £54,800
- Family spending 2010 £66,000
- New debt slapped on credit card £11,200
- Debt already on family credit card £299,000
Makes you wonder just when the bailiffs will turn up, doesn't it?

You have absolutely no idea at all about economics, do you? Shame. Maybe you should enrol for a course somewhere.
Can't come quick enough old holborn.
