April Fools Day?


When I saw this I thought for sure someone was pulling my chain. Much to my surprise it was for real.

Obama Proclaims April ?Month to Teach Young People How to Budget Responsibly?
Monday, April 1, 2013

President Barack Obama, who has increased the national debt by $53,377 per household, has proclaimed April ?National Financial Capability Month,? during which his administration will do things such as teach young people ?how to budget responsibly.?

Coming form a guy who?s never balanced anything, except maybe a ball on his nose, it?s truly comedy gold.

?I call upon all Americans to observe this month with programs and activities to improve their understanding of financial principles and practices,? Obama said in an official proclamation released Friday.

?My Administration is dedicated to helping people make sound decisions in the marketplace,? he said. Does he mean making decisions in investing in such things as Solyndra and the Chevy Volt?

?Together, we can prepare young people to tackle financial challenges?from learning how to budget responsibly to saving for college, starting a business, or opening a retirement account,? he said.

That sounds great but maybe we ought to help them get a job first. :lightbulb:
