I hate to break this to you, but I've seen you throw this number around in quite a few posts now. You guys are actually in debt by $13 trillion...

I think he meant the deficit, but either way, holy crap. Even if we cut military spending by half, it would still take at least 20 years to pay it down. TARP literally isn't even a drop in that bucket.
Well, you know what they say about debt? If you owe the bank $1 million you're in trouble, if you owe the bank $100 million, the bank is in trouble.
