Social debt is immoral, unjust and illegitimate,
That seems to be very much in line with our founders.
As a very important source of strength and security, cherish public credit. One method of preserving it is, to use it as sparingly as possible; avoiding occasions of expense by cultivating peace, but remembering also that timely disbursements to prepare for danger frequently prevent much greater disbursements to repel it; avoiding likewise the accumulation of debt, not only by shunning occasions of expense, but by vigorous exertions in time of peace to discharge the debts, which unavoidable wars may have occasioned, not ungenerously throwing upon posterity the burthen, which we ourselves ought to bear.
- GEORGE WASHINGTON, Farewell Address, Sep. 17, 1796

Yes there is extreme poverty but somehow their leaders live in golden palaces. It is not America’s fault of world proverity as we have shown and told the world what to do and vast, vast amounts of our treasure has been taken from us to prop up those leaders that live in those palaces as opposed to demanding our treasure, if allowed to be taken from us should go directly to the people, not those peoples government.
