We need to be free!

Debt.. A big issue huh? It's one of the main issues we have in the United States.

Dear Future President,

Why can't we ever payback other countries? Why are we spending money we don't have? The issue of being in debt in the United States effects people and other countries that leave us in a negative way.

The United States is in debt of 23.77 trillion dollars! Crazy huh? We spend money as if we were in a casino in Las Vegas, and at the end of the day we walk out with nothing but a peice of gum in our pocket.

What are we doing to get us out of being stuck in the mud? From the looks of it, it looks like we are doing nothing. In the last 10 years the federal debt has almost doubled to 103% of GDP. If we were putting an end to this our federal debt should have decreased in the last 10 years. Many people have many concerns and feel that we have a baggage over our heads that doesn't let us Continue moving forward. So I speak now! Let's solve this issue so we can live in a debt free zone!
