George Bush is a rough democratic equivilant to Russia's Romanov dynasty. The Blind to notice and too dumb to fix things.

eh when you factor back in how much of that is aid and or is actually owed back to us. its not as bad as some arbitrary number makes it look.

Also considering the goverment brings in around 2.5 trillion dollars in taxes every year.

yea its not that big of a deal yet.

because there are millions of whiney little bitches who want something for nothing.


also our public debt is only like 64***37; of our GDP. which while I agree isn't good and if we want to remain a major player in the world market for a long time we need to seriously reduce it. its not horrible at the moment.

now take japan on the other hand thier public debt is 158% of thier GDP. now thats bad.

I'd imagine we're owed similar amounts from other countries. Still, they should work on reducing it, albeit I'd rather it not come from my pockets.

The National Debt is deliberate...and frankly not a big deal...its just a scare tactic when used in that context.
