Well yeah we have somalians and haitians to take care of and make rich.

What percentage of it is due to fraud and outright theft?

Do you support massive spending cuts for government programs? Smaller government?

And almost all of it is fraud/laundered.

There’s no such thing as gross domestic product because we don’t produce anything

We are doomed. Time is the only factor.
And when the Merry-go-Round stops we will return to mob rule or he with the most weapons survives.
Millions will perish in a short amount of time.

Just quit printing money, get the fraud out & cut government programs 1% per year for a decade or two and watch what happens

I'm not sure how they're doing their calculations, but we passed 100% several years ago.

Yet we won't cut the trillions of non essential spending.

Not according to the article. Where are you getting your information?

It's quite the concern, almost devastating.
One side of the Uniparty doesn't care, as long as power is maintained or acquired. The other side only cares slightly more ... to simply give lip service.

Austerity measures? Sure, let's have them.

From my head. Current US Federal debt is $39+ trillion. US GDP is $32 trillion. 39/32 = 122%. Debt/GDP has been greater than 100% for several years and steadily climbing by 5% or more per year.

Probably 70%. Not even kidding.

Do you want government spending to be cut? Where?
