Our United States National debt currently stands at well over $12 trillion dollars. And it is continually climbing higher and higher. Please feel free to view it using this link U.S. National Debt Clock. Have we, as individuals become so desensitized to the sound of “trillions of dollars” that it’s become virtually meaningless to us?

Strangely, the “Leader of our Nation” who is leading us further and further in to this destructive national debt, tells us as citizens to go out and spend money. Today our unemployment stands at 10.2% and we are in a recession. I’m left in absolute bewilderment at this man and his illogical statements. How much more out of touch can he possibly get with those who voted for him and those that most certainly did not?

Have you ever stopped to realize that one can bankrupt a country? I’m aware of two countries that were lead into bankruptcy, and they are Germany and Zimbabwe. Bankruptcy + Country = Marxist-Leninism, and we all know where that went – Communism.

Let’s fight to ensure the our U.S. national debt doesn’t lead us down the same road.
