US Debt Clock: Unsustainable, but our government wants to keep spending until we can no longer borrow from anyone. What happens then?
[John K. Matyi] [UPDATE] The US Debt Clock seen below was published here in this post on July 1, 2009. It shows the US National Debt as $11,360,411,191,230. You can see the update of this clock (they have also added a few new categories) here . You might notice that since July of 2009 this figure has gone from 11 Trillion to 13 Trillion. If you have the stomach, again, you can check all the new figures HERE. Below the line is the original OPED from last year.

This is just a "Snipping" of the web site http://www.usdebtclock.org/ but if you would like to see this in full motion (so you can see how fast the debt for our nation is mounting up) just click over to the link above. BTW, this is just the top of the page... much more on the actual site. If this doesn't wake you up, consider this; click over to the site and watch the "Interest on Debt" in real time... it will get you dizzy.
When I look at all the increasing figures on this site I find it hard to get my head around them. So let me make it a little easier for us. Our government unfunded liabilities are now at almost 59 trillion dollars. So if we spread this out amung all US citizens, we each have a liability of $188,846. Now you know the real reason Obama is forcing Cap and Trade on us (Again, the largest TAX ever forced on the American people).
