Oh wait, we will never know because they declared bankruptcy when being far less in debt.

We are now at a TRILLION dollar deficit, not Debt, but deficit. We should be cutting all sorts of programs, not looking for ways to let the government spend even more.

edit: put another way, the debt grows by about $50,000 every second. Figure your annual salary in multiples/fractions of that, and then say this country needs to do anything but go on a serious fiscal diet

Good post and I will add this is not a Dem or Rep issue it is both parties that have been spending forever like druken sailors. At some point it has to stop.
