Look how fast their debt goes up!

U.S. National Debt: 14 Trillion and climbing fast! (Top Left numbers)

You will notice the debt climbs at a rate of $100,000 every 3 seconds.

Please DO NOT turn this into a political thread.
I only post this so you can see how fast their debt is rising.
Keep ALL political comments to yourself.

U.S. National Debt Clock (real time): http://www.usdebtclock.org/

EDIT: look at the U.S. Total Debt! (see it at about centre of the whole clock)
55 Trillion!
1/ Interesting how the pollies have one rule for themselves an another for the rest of us. We save, they spend.
2/ Nauseating that this is our money they are spending
3/ Get ready for the crunch... Its gonna hurt
4/ I'm going bush next year, and we'll be off the grid more or less within a couple of years.
