the Federal deficit is growing leaps & bounds, hidden though
the 2001 budget deficit was almost $500 billion, announced by ONeil in a WashDC meeting this summer
it went largely unnoticed
the official deficit is $125B
but add the off-balance sheet stuff, and obligations like Sochacurity, and you get four times that

Enron hidden balance sheets and faulty accounting, as well as lost billion$ from agencies, is commonplace in the USGovt

the feds provide a working example for corporate Amerika
