This is merely debt to foreign nations. It is not the national debt. We owe more money to the federal reserve than to any one nation. If we abolish the federal reserve we have a fighting chance.

No we owe money to the American people and institutions more US treasury debt is held within the US than outside. So yeah screw the American people and then we have a fighting chance. Sorry Grandma we had to rape your pension.

You are wrong. We owe them money in future dollars which will be inflated. Which is why the whole thing almost fell apart when deflation started kicking in. You might also want to put periods between some of your sentences. I doesn't matter you will find some other thing to argue about or just ignore me outright because what I said doesn't fit your view of the world.

It's like telling a kid not to touch the burners on a stove or they will get burned. The kid is going to touch it anyway and burn himself. Why? Because he doesn't know what a burn is yet.

Or could it be that people have different views based on their experiences and they are equally valid? No, it's cos you are Mr freaking super ego always right and anyone who doubts him must be totally narrow minded and wrong. Get over yourself. There's so much your limited figures don't tell. Don't get all upset just because someone points that out.
