Under Ryan's budget he will add approximately $10 TRILLION to the $14.3 TRILLION NATIONAL DEBT. (1.6 trillion minus the 600 billion ryan cuts, equals an annual DEFICIT of 1 trillion.)
He takes us from the current 14.3 trillion to 24 trillion NATIONAL DEBT in 10 years! It delays fiscal collapse but it does not even come close to preventing it.That is not solution, is continues the problem. Maybe there is no solution.
God Help Us.
