semantics.

people dont care about the debt. people are not gonna care about the debt until it really effects their quality of life.

if people really cared about debt then they would care about what the fed is doing with our money supply, but alas people couldnt care less.

hold up, didnt Clinton leave office with a surplus? And if debt is 16 tril, and Obama racked up 5+, then Bush racked up 11. What am I missing?

This guy does a good job of explaining the difference between debt and deficit...

just because you run a budget surplus does not mean you're paying off the debt
