    U.S. NATIONAL DEBT CLOCK. Dear Multinationals, Just imagine that all I got was just one Dollar, but I would spend 10 Dollars instead of 1, is that what capitalism is all about? I think that in the Netherlands they would say I got a hole in my hand, but apparently I am the lucky guy: on... more

    The American %GDP debt has actually been higher in the past. It is important to know that gov. debt differs in a few ways from household debt, but a very substantial chunk of debt you Yanks have got there :P It doesn't help that since Reagan and on no one's been concerned about paying it off; It's not healthy for a politician's image to do the responsible thing and up taxes when the economy is hot.

    We had a surplus in the Clinton years because Republicans remembered what it was they were supposed to stand for and enforced that, not because Clinton was any more miserly than Bush. He wasn't. He would quite happily have amassed huge debts if he could have. Mr. Obama though, and the Dems, make both Clinton and Bush seem incredibly miserly. Of course, there's no surprise here. Anyone familiar with California knew what would happen when Dems ran the whole fed show. So now we have runaway spending with no end in sight.

    Its crazy high. Not from the US but I read a comment asking what happened to personal responsibility. Well the personal responsibility in this case lies on the elected officials that borrowed the money on behalf of the people. It is not like the people are asked to vote on it each time the government has to borrow money. It seems to be all too common that all parties will borrow to pay for todays expenses and worry about the cost tomorrow.

    An interesting talking point but doesn't provide enough context.
