Comments
Under "Taxes and Costs", note that the effective Federal Tax Rate has fallen while "Personal Saving as a Percentage of Disposable Personal Income" has evaporated. Maybe the problem is us! Do we as a society try to own too many material things, as if they are what makes life happy? Do we expect the government so solve all of our problems, as if we have no responsibility?
