    Alternately, we could continue with the status quo, and continue to add to the debt while ignoring its import.

    Just who are we borrowing all this money from? Besides our kids, grandkids, great grandkids, great-great grandkids, you know, the generations that inherit the mess? I mean, I know that Congress has robbed Social Security a number of times, etc., but really, is there a bank out there somewhere holding a mortgage note on our country?

    I don't know where it comes from. What I do know is that anyone going to Washington D.C. and trying to put a stop to it makes a LOT of enemies, enemies willing to do anything to stop them from fixing the mess.

    Makes no sense at all to me.

    Bonds. A lot of that debt is owed to the American people.
