It's frozen. So the economy keeps getting better and better.
Wait a minute, more instructions coming from the MSM Central Command:
Now, if one of you with $18 Trillion dollars cash (and change) could just step forward and pay this.
Oh, and we'll need $120 Trillion dollars or so for unfunded liabilities.
Thanks in advance.
That, or repeal the damn things.
If only my credit card company’s allowed me to report how much debt I have outstanding.
So this means all deficit spending has stopped, right...?
Well thank goodness! The nation could not survive 18.0000001 trillion...
Yeah. Can I have my credit card balance frozen so I can go on a spending spree with it?.../s
The important thing is how much debt do you “feel” like you have?
Hrrrrrrrmmmmm ... I’m starting to think that maybe we shouldn’t trust their numbers ...
I have no idea if I’m off base on this one but if say, (heaven forbid) we go into another war, like Jeb Bush gets in and says we should or Obama decides so or somehow somebody decides we should...or it becomes somehow necessary we must...
then the debt will increase, correct?
Saying this because it seems there is a big push on Jeb and the middle east is so screwy.
LOL! Nice. Subtle.
I just get mad when I go there.
Yes, we’re saved!
It’s a brilliant plan!
I guess those financial geniuses who run things saw that Discover card commercial on TV where you can just freeze everything by the push of a button.
Oh, I’m sure they have no intention of honoring those things when the crash comes. It will be their excuse.
I’m just wondering how long we have until then.............
My immediate thought is that they have redefined something so it doesn’t show up here.
Hey, we’re only up $155 billion. Pocket change. /s
I was trying to copy the current number.
Lying.
High crime.
And $64 trillion on top of that for reparations:
