US Government Asks, ‘Lend Us Your Money’?

In the latest efforts to pay it's bills,  the US Government is now targeting two government employee retirement funds for cash to help pay it's bills.

Treasury Sec. Tim Geithner stressed the plan will not affect Federal retirees and the plans will be "made whole" once funds are found to replace the money.  He called for Congress to take swift action to fix the defecit issues. At issue is whether the Feds are willing to raise the debt ceiling.  Geithner claims the Feds have until August 2 before the government defaults.
