. Astronomical U.S. Government Debt The Debt Clock
Federal government now owes $15,000,000,000,000 - that's $55,000 per person in America - and increasing exponentially.
The government borrows $.42 on every dollar that it spends and runs an annual deficit of over $ 1.1 T.
Some think - and I agree - that this election year 2012 is the most important fot the future of America since the election of 1864, when, if Abraham Lincoln had been defeated, then the South would have remained slave states.
