Exactly.

Umm..your graphs show that the majority of spending is for social programs of one form or another...soo...

There are really only a few facts you need to understand about debt. Everything else is fluff.

1) Debt, both in the US and globally is massively unpayable in current value terms of the currencies in which it's denominated. That means the debt is worthless.

2) Central banks everywhere have vowed to do "whatever it takes" to prevent the massively unpayable debt from outright default, and they're multiple decades into that course of action. That means the currencies of those central banks are also worthless, which was always inevitable.

3) Central banks and governments are managing this currency default in such a way as to strip mine the assets of their middle class, which will be progressively forced into poverty and dependency. The beneficiaries of that process are a relative handful of global "oligarchs" who wield power over politicians and central banks.

4) All of the global political chaos, corruption, class warfare, real warfare, etc., is due to government rulers and "oligarchs" jockeying to improve their personal outcomes when this financial house of cards collapses.

5)If you're looking for someone to blame, you're wasting your time. A quick read of history demonstrates that this is just the messy way that evolution works at the top of the food chain. Winners and losers are hard to predict despite the best laid plans of mice and men.

True...until we go to a cashless system Then the only winners is the government.
There are counties already transitioning to that, with little reported in the press..(surprise..surprise). In some places you can't buy a loaf of bread with cash. The vendor will not accept it. Once that happens your life will be under total control of the government..there will be no underground economy or people working for cash. It will have no value nor any place to use it.

I think if you took the time to do even a bit of research you would already know that the programs you are talking about wouldn't even put a dent in the deficit. Military spending, corporate welfare, medicare, social security. Conservatives have never and will never have the balls to touch any of it. You've been sold a bill of dog shite and you lap it up like a ravenous sewer rat.

Plenty of money was wasted by the dear leader. He doubled the debt in 8 years.


Spending is controlled by Congress.

Not when you have a phone and a pen, are the first half black pres and the MSM toting your water.

dims also controlled all three branches for his first two years and accomplished nothing but more debt.

The first thing that needs to happen is Congress signing off on a balanced budget. How this is not required is beyond me.

Yawn.

It's something I'll let my kids worry about. Not my problem.

Reality is dems are at their lowest point since the 1920s

Thanks obama!
