And just who is this so called massive debt owed to anyway? China...how would they collect? How would any entity collect on this debt of cyber money?edit on 9-11-2012 by olaru12 because: (no reason given)

Your comment is much more hate filled and dividing than the OP.
I don't care about Obama or Romney, for the record.
But really, it's attitudes like yours, not the OP, that will do more harm to this country than good.
I don't hate them. I'm just fed up with them. They're still whining and are still willing to drive this country over a cliff even after they just got spanked.
Unbelievable.

No.......... you won't be starting the constitutional party because there already is one. And you can't even spell it correctly.

Did you even do any reasearch to VOTE for the constution party. I don't even think you are old enough to vote because only an adolescent would think that disenfranchising half of the electorate, and calling them names is the way a democratic republic works.

“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.” – Thomas Jefferson
“…a wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government.” – Thomas Jefferson
I think government schools have done more to destroy this gold nugget. I wonder how many people think the Constitution enumerates the rights of the people when, in fact, the Constitution enumerates the limitations of government in regards to the rights of the people. And how many think the government should lend a “helping hand” when truth be told that extended hand is the same one that will hold you down.

Edit: On topic, if you cut "entitlement" programs you would not only be starving tens of millions of people but it would make a very very small dent in our deficit. The real problem is DEFENSE SPENDING. You could literally get rid of all courts, social programs (water, trash, electricity and all other inner city government workers) and you would still be left with trillions in deficit all because of DEFENSE SPENDING.
The only real solution to this problem is to spend more money on creating jobs and cut DEFENSE SPENDING by 50%+. Four years is not enough to fix what Bush and Dick did to this economy, try four decades.edit on 9-11-2012 by zero1020 because: (no reason given)
