What do you mean by &quot;austerity&quot;?  The US government has spent $8T under Obama in new debt (and that beats the previous record set immediately before by George W Bush- it&#x27;s not a partisan thing, both parties over spend.)<p>As an american who has lived overseas, I totally agree with you about FBARs, it&#x27;s beyond unreasonable.<p>But where is the austerity?
