This video is very telling in terms of the financial condition our country is in. This video is a wake up call to all citizens to get active and demand the government stop spending our money in an imprudent manner. But it is not the end and we will overcome this challenge if we meet it head on which is what I intend to do if you give me the privilege to serve as your next U.S. Senator.
What follows is the original information as posted on the GAO website. Thank you for taking the time to watch this video. Spread the word. Source: Government Accountability Office David M.
