Federal Budget Revue - Stan Freberg

In 1980 Bob Chitester thought it would be fun to create a musical satire of the Federal Budget. He approached Stan Freberg to undertake the project, which Freberg did with gusto. This is the result of that collaboration.

Ahhhh, the good old days, when we only counted in the hundreds of billions.

Is that June Foray making an appearance at the beginning?

[@brianstone7103]

If only we could go back to the federal budget being $1 trillion. Or maybe even "...One Hundred Biiiiiiiiillion Dollars"

looks like nothing ever changes, we still have the same issues just bigger

[@OofusTwillip]

Lots of familiar voices appear on-camera: Sterling Holloway, Naomi Klein, Byron Kane, David Ogden Stiers...

[@charterloungeparty]

Naomi Lewis?

Lee Iacocca was no doubt less than pleased over Freberg's spoof of Chrysler's overpriced tanks!
