Uncle Sam is saying, Don't let debt defeat a great Nation.
America is going broke. We must carefully weigh the implications of a costly new government spending program at a time when the country already owes $56 trillion of entitlement obligations to China and to Saudi Arabia.
I am deeply concerned about the national debt, which has doubled since 2000 and is nearly $12 trillion for the first time in history. Any plan put forward must control costs, not add billions of dollars to an already ballooning deficit.
America is going broke. Is this the legacy Congress wants to leave to our children and our grandchildren? Don't let debt defeat a great Nation.
