dvdw, your system is flawed..if you dont hedge your portfolio at least in summer months then you need to go back to the drawing table.

Speaking of the 2010 census, this is pretty cool:

Just glide your cursor over the map and it displays every county.
Can't imagine how long it took to create this map!!

It was not only the nr. of US citizens that changed since 1970.

In 1980, the U.S. public debt was $909 billion - or an amount equal to 33.3% of America's gross domestic product (GDP).

By 1990, that number had more than tripled to $3.2 trillion - or 55.9% of GDP.[48]

In 2001 the national debt was $5.7 trillion; however, the debt-to-GDP ratio remained at 1990 levels.[49]

Debt levels rose quickly in the following decade, and on January 28, 2010, the US debt ceiling was raised to $14.3 trillion dollars.[50]

Based on the 2010 U.S. budget, total national debt will grow to nearly 100% of GDP, versus a level of approximately 80% in early 2009.[51]

The White House estimates that the government’s tab for servicing the debt will exceed $700 billion a year in 2019,[52] up from $202 billion in 2009.[53]
