Not a crime to be clever.

FYI, the USA federal operating deficit has declined more than 30% year-over-year as mandated tax increases and spending cuts take hold plus the economy is gaining traction, raising revenues further.

That trend will likely continue. These periodic global financial crisis/deleveraging periods typically average about seven years from start to finish. You're probably in the middle of year five. Corporations are in great shape, the average USA household debt has returned to about 70% of normal and now governments, the third pole in the tripod, are starting to get themselves under control.

Probably time to bomb Ireland until they change their tax laws though.
