Thank you for posting this. It is valuable, to those of us who believe this country possesses wealth on and under our soil that can help our great nation work its way out of this $40 trillion debt monster we have buried ourselves under.

Cutting spending wouldn't even come close. Taxing more, even worse. Both of those, if depended on, would fail as once they start biting into the debt because it would slow down the necessary expansion of the economy.

This shows why Trump, as the energy-centric President he is, is brilliant in his approach to energy. I heard Doug Burgum (Secretary of the Interior) discuss just that recently. We should harness exploitation of the wealth of resources we possess on public owned lands to take a share in solving this debt.

We will survive this debt by:

  1. Cutting taxes in a way that protects revenue.

  2. Cutting spending in a responsible way by getting rid of fraud and by eliminating programs that do not benefit this country.

  3. Exploiting our public-owned natural resources to decrease consumer costs and generate revenue by the leases and sales.

  4. Implementing tariffs to re-shore our industrial base and expand our economy

  5. Embracing AI and other derived technology to increase our industrial productivity as our expanding industrial space grows due to re-shoring by tariffs.
That will do it. We can work our way out of this debt. I can be done, I believe it.

I know there are many in our Conservative MAGA-based movement who love, appreciate and feel real gratitude for the blessings that this country has bestowed on us and the world.

We believe that this country that is ours is damn well worth preserving, rescuing, and invigorating. That is a good thing for the entire world. Even for those who don't want to be involved. It is us or the ChiComs, and we know what they have done and will do.
