"It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world." - Thomas Jefferson
Scant consolation to the widows and children of the 3,750,160 Americans who have died or been wounded in American wars since Jefferson. And it is no consolation to me that the U.S. debt is growing at $1.66 Billion dollars per day, now tracking at more than $8.5 Trillion dollars.
What kind of world will our children have to live in to pay off our debts?
