Why have you all of a sudden become concerned about the National Debt? In 2008 it was 10 trillion dollars, today it is over 19 trillion dollars and rising at 2.4 billion dollars a day. Obama has added more to the National Debt than the other 43 Presidents combined. If the "US Dollar" is replaced as the world currency as is being pursued by China and other countries, the United States will experience a natiional crisis. When the United States has to depend on borrowiing from foreign countries to fund our government, we are no longer the great America we once knew. If the United States is incapable of working under a "balanced budget", we are doomed as a nation. Even a "fool" should see that if we are dependent on borrowing money from China to fund our government that we are playing right into their hand. Would someone explain why our "government" is any different than a "family" when it comes to managing money? Architect, here is a question for you. I am "assuming" you are married, so if you can't control your wifes' spending and your monthly bills exceed your monthly income, what happens? Unless you are tied into Hillarys "foundation" or have a rich relative or friend to bail you out, you go bankrupt. So is that any different than our government?
