I posted something simple called Finance for Kids yesterday. Today, the topic is politics - for kids. One of my favorite things is to simplify every issue as much as possible - sort of like scientists trying to find one formula that will explain the universe. Einstein tried. He got close. They are still trying.
We have heard a lot about the character of political leaders during the last two weeks. Here is my formula for determining the character of any person - give them some cash (as much as you dare) in exchange for their word (just their word) to pay you back. They will either pay you every time, or at some point in time, just disappear and forget all about the debt. That's my best guess. Good luck.
