That's the same reasoning that Japan uses. More than half of Japan's annual budget is funded by deficit bonds, but nobody plans to do anything about it.

The reason these guys are in the soup is that Wally gave them the snitsch as I mentioned a few days ago. If there are only 85 Elbonians each one of them would have a dollar to spend so that would get things going, no problema....have a great weekend, everybody, and don't spend all your money in the same place.....

Ok it is obvious that 85 dollars won't do it and since their treasury is empty then this country will default. Dogbert is about to become the owner of a country.

Okay please tell me why the word e-n-t-i-t-i-e-s is censored. Oh wait I know why now it is a bad algorithm for blocking the word t-i-t-i-e-s. LOL, The web developer of this sight needs to learn how regular expressions work :P

@aeberga Yes we have a large debt, but what most people forget is that a large portion of that debt is actually owed to ourselves. It is not all owned by foreign !$%*!$%* as most people think. A lot is owed to Social Security and other private or public !$%*!$%* within our own country. See this graph:

http://www.optimist123.com/optimist/2011/08/pie-chart-of-who-owns-the-national-debt-mid-2011.html

As you can clearly see 61% is actually owned by our own country, and it's not like we are going to send ourselves to collections LOL!
