We seize obama and bushs assets and use them to pay off the debt and if its not enough, then we send bits and pieces of obama and bush and say heres your cut. but its probably all going to default or we pay it off by going into hyper inflation

This.  I wouldn't be upset if they went after people who voted for the spending also, first legislators, then talking heads, then the general public if it can be shown they're responsible like anyone with a republicrat bumper sticker.

The debt will continue to grow and hyperinflation will destroy our purchasing power until our dollar is only worth the heat it will produce by burning them to keep warm.

A couple of more thoughts...........Why should we, the young pay off a debt we didnt help incur?(Its from the Civil War) Defaulting is the best option, methinks because otherwise even if we pay it off incrementally, we would still be paying billions for INTEREST ON THE DEBT. Currently, we pay 13% of all taxes collected on interest on the debt, and keeping that practice up is retarded. It doesnt pay off the debt or make the investors realize they made a big mistake.

Also, I shouldnt post when I am loopy from sleep medication.

I'm willing to forget all that is owned to me (and, it's a lot), as well as all that's been stolen from me (again, a lot) if they just go away.
