--- "The U.S. national debt is rising by $1 trillion about every 100 days"

This has passed from poorly conceived, through idiotic, and is now essentially immoral and criminal in any sane world.

All else, from war to peace, hinges on the above.

Since 2001, the "leadership" of this nation has grown the debt from circa 5 trillion USD to today's insane 34.411 trillion USD.

The writing is on the wall, and no prophet is needed to read the message.

Ronald Reagan was the first President to reach $1 trillion in debt - in Fiscal 1982.
