By the time your born, you owe the government over $185,000. At the rate the government is spending money, our generation will be lucky to have a retirement plan. We inherited a big problem. The US needs to change its ways. Who's going to lend us money now?

The debt will never be paid. it will be settled by a war / agreement not to declare war or an embargo. ( wont happen)

pretty much. If the biggest kid in school owes money to a whole bunch of smaller kids there is really nothing they can do about it. And im talking like the Hulk big vs Emanuel Lewis small.

The U.S. is screwed unless someone like Ron Paul comes into office which would never be allowed because an independent would throw out the two party system so that something would actually get done once in a while. Ron Paul's main goal is too teach the up and coming generations to actually see and think for themselves and be able to go past what mainstream tells them.
