Re: Is the national debt a good thing or a bad thing?
I agree, the site is certainly slanted towards the viewpoint of its creator...
I certainly think it's important for all of us to know more about our debt so that we may help to influence how our government spends our money... seems only fair. For example, I'm all for the gov't spending money on heavily padded no bid haliburton contracts, but I just get an upset stomach thinking of all the old people we're paying to take care of and keep alive- shame we can't just execute them all instead.
But i'm not trying to imply that the debt is bad! I just wish we were putting more money into say... wars, and less into schools.
