What I want to know is, why aren't you so-called "coservatives" afraid of this? A low or nonexistant national debt has always been a conservative (and a libertarian) goal. The same goes for a streamlined government.
Have you ever bought a home?

Have you ever paid your own property taxes?

Can you even explain why this supposed "national debt crisis" is a "crisis"? And, "Because my teacher said so" is NOT an adequate argument.



The economy is booming - despite the setbacks such as 9/11, Katrina, etc. But all most people can do is sit around screaming, "Bush ruined the American economy!!!!!" Unfortunately, everything keeps coming back and hitting y'all in the face.
