Canada's Financial House is in Order - Is the USA's?

Finance Minister Jim Flaherty in his November budget update projected the government will post a $7.2 billion surplus this year, and then a $7.3 billion surplus in the 2007-08 fiscal year beginning April 1.

Canada is on track to post its tenth annual budget surplus. A shrinking national debt is a reality in Canada, but an impossible dream in the USA. The reason why so many Americans are living on their credit cards is the example of their spendthrift government. While Canada has its financial house in order, the USA is spending its future generations into unimaginable debt.
