What was the last year we paid down our debt and not just interest towards the debt? How much was the paydown? lol There is a point of no return and sadly we're headed full steam for it! |

The last year we paid down our debt was right before Bush W. put us in the crapper. And I think his first year did, too.

![]() If you could do that with a treasury credit there would be no problem. But you can't and that's where the fairytail part starts.

All we have to do is have the Treasury take a credit from column A to column B, issue a bill, and place the cash in that account as needed. It's what we've been doing for years. We've never been 1 day late on any payment. Is this really too hard to understand? The only fairy tale is the Tea Party understanding of "finance". I find it amazing some are freaking out over something that has been being ably taken care of for years. Now - tell your Congress to get your income back, that they gave away! You have bills you have agreed to pay! Never mind, they are on vacation from their 4-day-a-week, two weeks on, one week off terrible schedule. Leaving the swamps of Washington for a month to avoid the heat and malaria. Just like the founding fathers.

![]() I hope the ceiling is never raised again.
I certainly dread the day when our debt reaches 25 trillion, 30 trillion, etc. that is what it will look like if the dems and repubs keep their game going. they do NOT care about the future of this country.

(Happy August! Were you planning on driving your kid to college this month? Buying school supplies? Paying a tuition payment?) We are losing 30 million a day in FAA fees? While the airlines are grabbing that up as profit by keeping ticket prices the same? (and they say consumer protection agencies are not needed, right) Congress, who was too damn lazy to stay one more day and take care of this (they asked Boehner, he said they'd deal with it when they got back) - well, they have cost us 1.2 billion 1.2 billion. We worry, while they vacation. Hey Congress? JOBS? You know, here's 94,000 you could have had paid in August. Let alone the 1.2 billion you'll cost us. Rand Paul is gonna get an earful at his first local town hall ![]() Let's do the math: this happened because GOP wanted 16.5 million in cuts. They are costing us 1.2 billion by doing so. Reckless, irresponsible, spenders, the GOP. They haven't changed a bit since the Bush years. Demagogue and cost us money, and people their jobs, food, cars .... Where the hell is the Tea Party on this matter? Oh, they rushed home for vacation. Quote:

![]() Riot, the dems do the same things, its not just the GOP. When I look at Obama I see GW Bush.
we need a complete goverment overhaul. The politicians should be volunteers who only get paid a per deim. Two term max. and lobbyists should be deemed unconstitutional and be tried for treason.
