Maybe the debt will be paid off by illegal immigrants, technology, a zero percent tax rate, or magic fairy dust, but the reality is that the US debt is increasing constantly, no one cares, and spending more money to reduce the debt will only lead to disaster.

Debt didn’t work out too well for Rome, Germany, Japan, Greece, or Zimbabwe.

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Last year the one percent took 14 trillion of cash out of our economy. The deficit is the interest you pay for that money gone for ever off shore. We should have never passed the rich tax cuts. Fear is business as usual. It has no basis in fact. The poor don't increase our debt at all, never did never will. We all know who makes us pay those deficits, the filthy . The deficit is money we create for all of us. Except the filthy rich. The game is rigged.
