"The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender." (Proverbs 22:7)

Jerry closes out today’s show with a haunting spiritual truth. Although the Bible does not call debt a sin, it does tell us the dismal consequence –  if the unprecedented borrowing in Washington does not stop, it is sure to face a bitter, humbling yoke.
