The 56 Trillion Dollar Debt Inheritance

Email Story To A Friend

The official national debt is briskly approaching $12 trillion, getting $5 billion closer by the day, while the real national debt has already surpassed $56 trillion.  Though cloaked in fear, this clip makes the point rather clearly.  It's also the point 6-year-old Sam made so eloquently.  When today's teenagers learn what happened to their futures without consent, expect an assault on entitlements in response.  Book it.  Runs 32 seconds.

  • ATTORNEY: My sincere condolences upon the passing of your loved one.  Upon review of the will, your grandfather has bequeathed to you, this stack of bills!
  • NARRATOR: Our govenment's irresponsible programs will leave our country buried under 9 trilliion dollars in new spending with no plans for payment, shackling our children with an inheritance of debt.

In 2006 Congress was debating whether to authorize increasing the size of the national debt. A freshman senator addressed his colleagues: "The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt is a sign of leadership failure."

Three years later, a couple of things are different. That senator is now President Barack Obama, and the national debt is nearly 50 percent larger than before. At least one thing hasn't changed, however - in the coming weeks the Senate is expected to vote on yet another increase in the federal debt ceiling.

Hey, you people voted for a semi-illiterate RETARD not once but TWICE. And you continued to support him even AFTER he invaded the wrong country. And started legalizing torture. And started curtailing civil rights. And failed to find the REAL culprits that attacked us.
THEN at election time you OVERWHELMINGLY ignored the ONLY candidate who had predicted this fiasco LONG AGO and who actually HAD a plan to resolve it (R Paul) and instead you decided to go with someone with absolutely NO track record AT ALL, hoping that someway somehow in his immense naivete he miraculously represented 'real change'.

And in a way he did because thanks to the corrupt bastard and his buddies ..we are now Venezuela, camaradas. Si se puede!

read this folks:

Thus, Reagan was the first Republican socialist - and a great one, because his wealth transfer occurred on a massive scale. His accomplishment dwarfs even FDR's, and if today the small businessman suffers a crippling tax burden, he must thank Reagan the redistributionist. However, FDR took pains to help the poor, while Reagan took pains to help the wealthiest like himself.

An essential step toward our
Sat, 03/21/2009 - 15:31 — the lion (not verified)
An essential step toward our society becoming more fair and unified is to have a tax system which is based on consumption not income. Income is subject to definition by the political class and their enablers. This power is used to divide the people and to retain and enhance the power of the political class( elected officials, their appointees, academics, media, like minded business) . This political power is exercised to reward their friends and punish their enemies thereby creating more power for themselves and dependency of the people. This cycle can only begin to be changed by changing the federal tax code. The FairTax (fairtax.org) is a replacement for the current income/payroll tax system. It is revenue neutral, provides a prebate which mitigates the tax on essential goods and services, has no exceptions or exclusions, is transparent, visible, and more progressive than the income/payroll tax system it replaces. Go to the website (fairtax.org), learn about the FairTax, think about the impact it will have on our nation, read the research upon which is based, consider the benefits it will create in our current financial crisis ( wage earners will receive all their earnings each pay-period without any with holding for income /payroll taxes). The FairTax is transformational. Study and learn and then advocate for the FairTax

Matt Renner: What is the wage-productivity gap and how does it affect the health of an economy?

Dr. Ravi Batra: The wage-productivity gap is the gap between the real wage and labor productivity. The real wage is the purchasing power of the average salary. If productivity rises fast and the real wage rises slowly, then a wage-productivity gap develops and grows.

MR: When there is production and wages don't keep pace, what is the result?

RB: Productivity is the main source of supply, whereas wages are the main source of demand. If this wage-productivity gap keeps rising over time, supply will rise faster than demand and then we face the problem of overproduction.

Many like [former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan] Greenspan and other economists love the productivity rise, but if it leads to overproduction, that leads to high unemployment such as we are seeing now. Overproduction is a disaster and it leads to depressions.

If businesses don't sell what they produce, they lose money, and when they lose money, they have to lay off people.

No, you have Mccain to thank for that. It's hard to pretend to be all "mavericky" with a 90% voting record for King George, and the Keating 5 under his belt. Even you had better choices in the primaries.

The only vote that does not count is the vote not caste. I'll continue to vote for the best man, instead of the lesser of two evils like a good herd animal.

"Yes Gomp, your vote doesn't count unless it takes away from a candidate who might actually win. Good work."

So the goal is to be able to say I voted for the winner, no matter what he or she is. I guess I missed that in Federal Government class in High School. I thought it was about voting for what is best for the nation, and so I have always voted for a return to sound money, and a few other things.

You should be proud, always voting for who the banker boys tell your party to vote for. And same for the other party, rogues one and all.
