Ummm....no.
Running the finances of the country, when you have different factions pulling every which way, is totally different than running your own, personal, household finances......which many Americans are woefully inept at doing.
Another point......if more Americans knew how to properly manage their money, it would have a great effect on how many government run programs are needed to bail them out because of stupid choices.
If each individual could sit down and do the math.....no, I can't afford that house,.....no, I can't afford another child, no, instead of buying that boat, I should put some money away for retirement.....it would benefit all of us and the nation as a whole.
Individual financial irresponsibility is a HUGE problem in this country.
