This is the screen play for a video I dreamed up
The scene is: A family is gathered around a large kitchen table the men and women are dressed plainly but in clean working clothes
The men look grim, the women are teary eyed and wringing their hands

If America was a family making 40K/yr the 1.1 Trillon dollar Iraq War would be like them making $50/week payments for 8 years
Man's voice. "The last 8 years have not been easy for the family, but we made our payments"

This years Federal spending and deficit are like that same family spending 70k, every penny they are going to make, and 30K they don't have
Man's voice "But what he is doing now we just can't afford"
Woman ducks her head.
Man's voice "He not only plans to spend every penny we are going to make this year, but 30K we don't have, and he plans on doing the same thing NEXT Year and the Year after and has NO intention of changing!"
Woman puts hands to face and gasps Men straighten up and their faces tighten
Man's voice "If this goes on, the Family Business is GONE, there will be nothing left for our Children!"
Men look Grimmer Woman Sobs
Man's voice "We don't have a CHOICE we have to get him some HELP, we have to,. to save what we have left"
Women are weeping softly, Men are blinking their eyes and trying to maintain
Man's Voice "We CAN'T ignore this ANY LONGER!
We HAVE to do SOMETHING about UNCLE SAM!"
Man's voice softly speaking "while there is still something left to save"
