$2291.62 usd per head. Well thats not true, the value of our money is just pretend and isnt worth squat some places.

Yet still, that is mind blowing. I cant quite wrap my brain around it.

Here is a good look at:

Some call me a conspiracy theorist, but the only thing I know to be true about 9/11 are the innocent people who lost their lives. Someday, we will have real justice. Someday the official story will be the conspiracy. Someday, you will have to be the one to shock the system

Its said we were attacked because of our freedom, well it would appear, a decade later and some collective 1.5 million lives lost, that who ever "they are", have won, because AmerIkA is no longer free. NSA, TSA, FBI, CIA, DoD, BATF, DEA, DHS, BLM, USDA, FDA, IRS, and the emerging police state. Its absolutely clear, without unequivocal doubt, that whoever planned this, has systematically won, and has committed genocide that is being written into the books of history as a victory.



Freedom is a frame of mind

The image lends size but not perspective. Dept to GDP would give perspective.

We owed more as a percentage of GDP immediately after WWII. WWII took 4 years to win but decades of post-war treaties still cost us billions.

We more recently fought two ground wars simultaneously. 6 years in Iraq, 10 years and counting in Afghanistan. The up side to these two is we won't likely defend these nations as pretext they not rearm and attempt world domination like a half dozen other countries.

That said, debt per person is much higher than $2291.62. It's probably closer to $229,162.00 - per person.

Another way to look at is:

"These days, a dollar's only worth 10 cents."

That's a valid argument but we can't simultaneously infer $14 trillion is 1910-dollar value.

and so what can we do about it? ron paul? i wish but then you would have to put up with all his deregulation. so?? they'd prolly kill him anyway and make it look like a heart attack. like kim jung ill.

they are all the same. maybe not when they are running, but after they get in and get the law read to them. they change. except for romney, he doesnt have to change, he's already a big money man.
Romney+Money, just add R.

There is no WE. I don't care what some political jack asses promise to whom. You all will be paying to keep me in a cage well before I am ever paying for THEIR promises and spending.

Circle jerk continues, printing presses to warp factor 9!

sorry to say Benny but if you do the math with US nation debt, you should also do it with only US population instead of world population, don't you think ?
so you get 50k/US citizen like PeanutButter posted before and not that 2k/head as in the OP.

in fact, for the rest of the world (like china for instance) US debt is their money of demand and not the whole world's debt/head!

You're right, there's no I in we. Austerity never countered contraction.

Lock you up? What are you gonna do, refuse health insurance, go to the emergency room and make us pay for it? Lots of peeps do that. No particular reason to single you out.
