The best and the brightest (democrat and republican) up in Washington have mismanaged the financial health of this nation for decades.
This is a national security issue and those responsible should be held to account.
We the people have been royally screwed over.....
But I thought Michael Moore said we’re NOT in debt. I’m SOOOOOO confused!
The public is just as stupid as they are easily manipulated by TV and the media. Some people here think it is a big joke that I point it out. They respond “oh Fox is our friend or I just watch TCM or ball games.” BS - you are still supporting the beast.
The big joke is when they see their standard of living drop dramatically and more and more freedoms are taken away. Old people will become too expensive for society. People will be robbed and beaten and the perps will claim social justice.
The Repubs suck especially RINOs like MCCain, Bushes, et al but the Dems are 10X more evil.

I agree... But now somebody will have to pay the piper...
I think that's simplistic. If politicians don't give the voters what they demand, they're voted out and replaced by some that will. American voters have demanded welfare state goodies for years: social security, Medicare, Medicaid, Taj Mahal schools with armies of overpaid administrators and teachers, etc. They've elected politicians who delivered them.
I look at my own little town. We're building a lavish new high school thanks to a huge bond issue people voted for expecting "rich property owners" to pay for. We have a redevelopment agency, fed by a state tax dollar "grant" that's driving poor people out of their homes to benefit developers. Our new multi-million dollar library is beautiful. It was mostly financed with federal "grant" money.
There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch (TANSTAAFL). Several generations of Americans, both voters and their elected politicians, have deluded themselves into believing there can be. But the bill always has to be paid one way or another.
