Where does it borrow the money from?

Answer 1

like everyone... ugh.

we should drill our own friggin oil! stop the importing jeez!

this is craziness. we need palin!

edit: we ALL thought there were weapons of mass destruction. i for one have noticed a patten, people blow up our stuff and kill our people... we bring it. 9-11? what would y'all have done? well i'll tell you one thing. you wouldn't have just sat there to wait for it to happen again. what we need to do is get in there, take out the terrorists and then get the h**l out. but not before. we leave iraq like this, it'll be like we left germany after world war 1. that worked well, now didn't it? trade hitler for some bearded extremist arab, who makes an alliance with russia against us both! now THAT is world war 3!

edit: you can't deny what i just said. you're grasping at straws. are you saying we deserve it? they hate us because we're "poisoning the lands of allah"

are you american or british or what?

edit: yeah, and hussein is a big loving huggable guy... he slaughtered his own people daily! they are insane people who want to kill us all! do you think the united states government just sits down and says "gee i'm bored, what country should be push around today..." h**l NO. ever since the soviets and the taliban they have been bad news. you can't show weakness with these people! they actually like killing. ever read the kite runner!?

edit: WTF... you're deffending hussien?!!? please, do the world a favor and do some research. he is a BAD BAD BAD guy. the kite runner is a famous book and now a movie about afghanistan and the screwed up things that happen there. iraq was a foot hold for terrorists. it was called for.

sarah palin's state, alaska, has a surplus of money. so much that the alaskan government just hands gave everyone a huge check [ i forgot the exact number, sorry] democrats want to tax us into the ground... how the h**l is that going to help anyone?! palin has a plan. she'll do great things.

edit: journalists, my friend. facts injected with opinions. sometimes it's hard to tell which is which. i'll read your articles. but you need to find something concrete to stand on. may i suggust foxnews.com? = ]

Answer 7

Drug dealing in the USA is likely about a 5.11 trillion dollar "business", per year. Sexual perversion is likely another 5.11 trillion dollar "business". This gives the "mob" more money than Congress for discretionary spending. This is extrapolated from data generated by the FBI during Carter's Administration; the problem by all accounts I've seen is now much worse.

When that much money is moving, there are problems in placing it all somewhere, where the politicos won't look.

Where do you think some % of it goes? Cause over time, it wouldn't take a large % to = all our current debt, if the "contribution" were 'rolled over'.
