Note: The above article was published in 2014 when America's national debt was $17.8 trillion dollars. Today our national debt is somewhere around $31 trillion dollars. I say "somewhere" because our national debt is actually $142 trillion if you take into consideration the following: Unfunded Medicare Promises, Unfunded Social Security Promises, Publicly Held Debt, Pension and Retiree Healthcare Liabilities, and Other Liabilities (Source)
And that doesn't even take into consideration the numerous wars which our current administration seems to be trying to get us involved in! Mark Levin, who is also a Constitutional scholar, said recently:
"You should view these politicians with the deepest contempt you can possibly imagine. What they are doing to this country, what they are doing to our finances - there is not a criminal in any federal prison, state prison, city or county jail with respect to financial crimes of any sort who collectively could have done the kind of damage that Barack Obama and Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and yes, willing, timid, gutless Republicans have done to this country! To your future, to your children and your grandchildren. What they are doing is with malice and with forethought." (emphasis mine) (source)
1935 - Franklin D. Roosevelt signs the Social Security Act, creating a government pension system for the retired.
