    it would all be sitting at the bank

    you sure that wasn't Ben Franklin that said that ?

    Polonius:
    Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
    For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
    And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

    Hamlet Act 1, scene 3, 75–77
    Shakespeare.

    Boy that quote goes to show how quickly individuals can think up philosophies that stay with us for centuries.

    More importantly, what would happen to the federal government's budget!?
