You persist in your completely absurd belief that going into debt is income
and that paying off debt is spending.  Your first response is to pretend that
you do not know what two simple English words MEAN.  Your second was to ask an
irrelevant question.  I answered the irrelevant question.  Revenue is
"counted" as revenue because revenue IS revenue.  Yes, your question really
WAS that dumb.

Jeff already did.  I already did.  That is why your response is so funny.
