I read on a website "The estimated population of the United States is 312,454,280 so each citizen's share of this debt is $49,893.04." "The National Debt has continued to increase an average of $4.02 billion per day since September 28, 2007!" How is america going to pay off this huge debt? What really bugs me is that they have this huge $15 589 292 765 978 debt, and they just continue to spend, when you or me goes into debt, the bank normally blocks off our account, why hasn't this happened to america? Where are they getting this cash? http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/ I think america's going to have to do some serious cut backs, maybe stop spending so much money on missiles. In 2011 the US spent $9.9 billion on Ballistic Missile Defenses. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_budget_of_the_United_States What's your opinion?
