So you plan on not honoring those greenbacks for all debts public and private?

Sure, I'll honor the pieces of paper, all they have to do is buy stuff. If they prefer paper, I guess they could eat it.

The income gap is growing.

Income gap, you sound like Clinton.

Real wages are not growing. People are losing good paying jobs. Mothers have to work instead of staying home raising their kids.

Mothers have to work because the goverment takes half our money, not because China gives us cool stuff for green paper.

You are making a communist country wealthy. You are making us dependent on the rest of the world.

Yeah, China is so wealthy that Americans risk their lives to get smuggled into China everyday, oh wait, Chinese get smuggled here. Nevermind.

And why is it that gov't takes half our money? Because they no longer collect tariffs. You do realize that the gov't used to fund itself almost entirely through tariffs. Tax-cut Republicans like you have a single solution for all that ails us, tax cuts. Find a tax and cut it, problem solved. And it's a perpetual power source too since Dems will raise taxes, and then you get to go cut them again. Is it ever necessary to accomplish anything tangeable or is does the rhetoric justify itself? You need to learn to read more carefully. I said we are making the Chinese wealthy, not the Chinese are wealthy.
