The biggest problem I have is this could be paid off in about 10 years if we had someone that would make it happen. You can not keep robbing from peter to pay paul. You cant keep borrowing and giving money you don't have. Yes it may make Iran, Iraq, Africa, Afgahnstain and a whole lot of other countries mad but you tell them that if they want our help it has to be paid for. Like I thought it was going to be. No more Feed the synamees until nobody in America is hungry. Bye Bye United Nations. Bye politicans salries or at least cut them in half like they did the big banks. Because they have took more money than the banks did. Make prisons have farms and raise animals. The list could go on and on but nobody cares what an avg voter thinks. But I have to agree with bud. Until we show them that we are tired of it and won't send them back if they lie or spend too much then we have no one to blame but ourselves.

I'm just tired of working my tail off for peanuts when other jackasses are laying on their duffs getting paid to do nothing.

I cant afford medical insurance but Non citizens can get it free... same with housing, food, etc...

I have no problem helping those who need help, but when so called middle class americans which by the way are now becoming lower class americans cant get the help they need then it becomes a problem for me!

On a brighter note - God meets my needs and thats all thats important.. I thank God I have a job (even one that pays peanuts)

debt per citizen is when the amount is divided by every man, woman and child

debt per tax payer is just those actually paying taxes..

fact is the nat debt was over 10 trillion under...yup, GW Bush.
and the current amount is being added to every day.

let's not pretend...we can NO longer afford OURSELVES,
if it continues to be our mission to stick our nose in everybodys business.

Learn to speak Spanish,next time you need medical help ask in Spanish,and be sure to tell them you have no job,while your at it go apply for food stamps and housing assistance as well. I will bet you would be surprised just how easy it is.
just another lower middle class American paying someone else's bills, Bill
