Every Main Street American who loves their country, believes in the benefits of what is left of the free-enterprise system and is horrified at the suicidal Congressional spending spree that is bankrupting  current as well as unborn generations of Americans needs to visit USDebtClock.Org website.

Pay special attention, not only to the current national debt of nearly twelve trillion dollars, but to the unfunded liabilities debt of one hundred and five trillion dollars located in the section at the bottom of the web page. Unfunded liabilities (Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Prescription Drugs) are not reported as part of the twelve trillion national debt dollars. This means that the actual indebtedness of our country and by extrapolation every man, woman and child currently alive as well as generations of unborn Americans is well over one hundred trillion dollars! To put this astronomical sum in perspective it takes a thousand millions to make a billion and a thousand billions to make a trillion. If Congress were to decide tomorrow to take ten percent of the 3.6 trillion dollar federal budget (360 billion dollars) and begin paying off the total national debt it would take nearly 300 years to do it!
