Well I am not sure there is a good answer to fix this debt. I can't blame only one political party because they have had well over two hundred years to make this government work and it still is way off ! I do know aside from these problems , (and I would like to see them taken care of) we still have the best country in this world.

I found this site that revealed Defense Spending history since the 40's. Just thought I'd put it out there for anyone to see.

Somebody should pick up Dave Ramsey as their VP. We'd be out of debt in no time.
