Normally when times are good and you are making money, it is time to pay off some debts. Right?
Well we hear every day that the economy is booming, unemployment is 4.1% (lowest in many years).
Today the federal debt just hit $21 Trillion. This is not a red or blue problem...it is America's problem, and mostly our children's problem. And I am not hearing any solutions or painful measures to fix it.

Using the 2015 data:
Total Expenses $3.8 Trillion Partially made up of these expenses: Medicare and healthcare $986 Billion (about 26% of the total) Social Security and Disability $895 Billion ( about 24%of the total) Military & Defense $598 Billion (about 16%) Veterans Benefits $170 Billion ( 4%) Education $70 Billion ( 2%) Unemployment 36 Billion (1%)
Interest on the debt $229 Billion (7%)
