DescriptionTexas billionaire Ross Perot launched a new Web site Sunday, scolding America about its fiscal irresponsibility and the impact bad decisions will have on the country’s future.

Perot says America is spending its way over the edge of a cliff, and has launched Perotcharts.com to shake up voters about the national debt and the federal government’s expensive entitlement programs.

“We have established this site for one reason — to give every citizen access to this information,” Perot says in a broadcast on the site. “Not since the Great Depression have we seen an economic crisis of the magnitude we are facing today. Our enormous national debt reached almost $9.4 trillion dollars on April 30th of this year, and it is increasing by over $1 billion every day.”

Perot is hard to ignore. In 1992, as an impromptu candidate for president, he got nearly 20 percent of the vote, giving Bill Clinton a winning edge.
