Iceland, Greece, Portugal, Spain... all had a debt to GDP of anywhere from 80-130% - ours is approaching 800 and we're still 'chugging along'? =)) Shows you just how much manipulation, criminality and fraud there is with what the 'Fed' is doing.(CNSNews.com) – House Budget Chairman Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said President Barack Obama’s budget strategy is to “do nothing, punt, duck, kick the can down the road” while the debt remains on track to eventually hit 800 percent of GDP. Ryan added that the CBO is saying it "can't conceive of any way" that the economy can continue past 2037 given its current trajectory.
2037??? We'll be lucky to make it to 2017.![]()
Ryan also said that the House Republicans’ FY2012 budget, which he unveiled yesterday, would save Medicare and help the United States avoid a debt crisis.
It is mathematically impossible to get our debt and deficits under control and besides... that isn't the plan anyway.
