$20 Trillion National Debt for Dummies
 
The US Surpasses $20 Trillion In Debt As Bankruptcy and Hyperinflation Loom Closer - YouTube

It'll be $30 trillion when Trump is done.

When you borrow nearly 1/4 of your annual budget...when you owe $20 trillion...when you have NO way of EVER paying it back...

You're ALREADY bankrupt.

We're in debt because we're ALWAYS AT WAR.

The price you pay for entitlements. War is a pittance in comparison.

War is to maintain your freedom
Entitlements are to maintain your submission (slavery)

War is to maintain dominance.

Entitlements to keep the rabble quiet.

SS is NOT an entitlement.

Welfare is an entitlement. Medicaid is an entitlement. Section 8 is an entitlement. Food Stamps are an entitlement. Earned income credit is an entitlement. Obama phones are an entitlement.

An entitlement is something for FREE, something you receive without paying into.

Almost half the black population receives a government entitlement. 10% or less of white do. Don't believe me? Go to the Leesburg or Wildwood welfare office...any day...and see who's sitting there. Blacks and Hispanics...and 1 or 2 white girls with black kids.

Go on...go down and see for yourself...before you tell me how racist I am for pointing out that FACT.

I would like to see us disban any part of the military that is not required for defense. Way too much money spent on touchy feely BS.

Some of these posters need to take a peek at that the pie charts for the federal government and each state and they will get a better sense of where taxpayer money is going.
they should pay particular attention at the amounts paid to public unions and especially the unfunded liability for public union pension funds.

Thanks to Obama fiats the military is in desperate need of more ships, more replacements parts for planes, etc.

six of 10 people who apply to the military are rejected because of either obesity or drug use. A a result the military continues to lower standards.

We need to bring back the draft.

You really cannot believe the military doesn't have spare parts because they don't receive enough of the federal budget. Are you getting a military benefit of some type? I can't believe anyone out of private sector would say that.

So, what is your explanation as to why the military procurement and supply system is unable to obtain the spare parts needed to maintain mission readiness?
