If you’ve ever worked in retail, fast food or any business that involved a cash drawer or handling cash, you know that you don’t always balance at the end of the day. You often spend an hour trying to make it come out right (if you are conscientious); looking for that 5 cents that you are over, or usually under.
Or presidential candidates have recently suggested that one of the world's richest men, Warren Buffett, would make a good treasury secretary. Excellent idea! While we’re at it, let’s have Bill Gates, another one of the world’s richest men, be the head of the Federal Reserve Bank. That way, just like you behind the cash register, when we find ourselves a little short after a long shift, they can just throw in the difference out of their pockets, and not spend a lot of time trying to figure out where it went. Who knows, tomorrow we may be a little over.
