But before we can get to that point, we’ve got $14 trillion plus interest to pay back.

No problem-o. According to IRS tax statistics, total gross collections of Individual Income Tax Returns and Corporate Tax Returns for year 2009 are rounded to 1.4 trillion. So we just stop all federal services and entitlements, other than tax collection, for 10 years and, fork over all individual and corporate gross collections from these two sources for 10 years!

Or each of the 300 million Americans can fork over $46,667. So for me, my wife and 8 children, I owe $467,000.

Will you take a check?

Isn’t that what printed money is? I wonder if we’ll be paying off our nation’s debt in 300 million commemorative $46,700 US dollar bills.

Well, those kids had better get a lemonade stand going, after they get regulatory and NLRB approval…and don’t forget to have them pay their sales and business taxes as well.

Actually, that’s similar to what needs to happen in order to reduce the debt. Reduce spending while continuing to take in taxes. But the taxes must be applied to the debt, not more spending. That will slowly bring down the debt, but we will get nothing for that money except debt paydown. But it is necessary. The binge is over.

As a devoted Catholic of 60 I am some what bothered that our faith is being used by Catholic media to push views of the right wing only, why certainly we are against abortion,for morality,and support the holiness of the Family all are fine and also right wing issues how ever other issues are closer to left wing views such as feed the hungry Jesus did not say we should only feed those who can afford it.To cloth the Naked to give shelter,to help those who are really sick and need it.he cured the leaper healed the lame raised the dead and never said a word about judging their personal conduct.I feel that to do good for others of course we must never take away their ownership for them selfs,but still their those who are in real need of help anyway to do good must be from God to do nothing must be evil because the absence of good must be evil for what else is their.If a baby dies from lack of correct medicial attention is it no as dead as the aborted child both are wrong if a older person dies for lack of resourse to bye correct perscriptions are they to in a sence aborted by being denied the rest of their life.My issue is that both sides are wright on somethings and wrong on others I see the issues of life and treatment as one as taught by Jesus .who keep numbers on those who suffer or die because of or societys neglect of these other issues who. God bless All

While the republicans may have their imperfections, the democrat party endorses abortion, gay marriage, legalizing drugs, and euthanasia. They also denied God and Jerusalem in their platform three times which I personal feel repercussions will be coming for that. Jesus said, “Everyone therefore who shall confess Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever shall deny Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 10:32,33). Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

I understand your reasoning, but I fail to see why the right is considered to be unconcerned for the poor, etc and only concerned about how they can get ahead in the world? There is no truth to this. The liberal left believe that Government should take care of us all (like in Jesus’ s time, how’d the Romans treat the poor?) Instead, Jesus did it Himself. That is actually more of a position of the right. The conservative position is that instead of government doing it all, charity comes from the will of the individual and actions of the private sector or churches. It is because of our love for others that we volunteer our time, talents, and money to help the poor.

It is a fundamental misunderstanding:

The left - Government responsibility to take care of the needy (That way they don’t need to do it themselves? Just a thought)

The right - Charity comes from the heart, not a government check.

A-men! Love your signature too!

I didn’t bring that much cash…guess I’ll have to wash dishes.
