Can you say... 53 trillion...? I've heard several interviews with him, and others that are in the same circles (often on the Glenn Beck program), and this is the government going completely mad... $53Tr is not just current debt, but it is also unfunded mandates they have passed over the years. I don't have cable, so I'll catch a web-cast post broadcast.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

What is interesting is the value of the US dollar, with such a shithouse economy and statistics it still holds a high value. I would bet the rockerfellas and rothchilds etc. would have something to do with that as thier fortunes would most likely consist mainly of US$."When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmcoco84 5 #7 January 13, 2009 The 2008 National Debt.... is 8.7 Trillion! 53 trillion includes everything else, which is mainly Social Security, and Medicare. Which by the way... medicare had a 31.5% fraud rate in 2006. Nearly 20 billion went to fraud... Since the beginning of social security, the program has brought in surpluses that have paid for other programs were there were deficits. In the next 5 years, SS will be paying out more than it takes in. Bring on the 53 trillion.... If we don't fix our debt problems... our foreign lenders will lend no more.... USA... powerful country... and so was Rome... it fell and so can we....... D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
