What did Ostrogoth King Theodoric do when he wanted to restore the greatness of Rome but had no money?
He consolidated power and plundered his own people to raise the cash he needed. He even resorted to looting the tombs of deceased citizens who had been buried with their gold and silver.
President Obama’s recently proposed budget would mean spending almost all current tax revenue just on mandatory programs like Social Security and Medicare. Who, then, will pay for everything else?
