The 56 Trillion Dollar Debt Inheritance

From The daily bail The official national debt is briskly approaching $12 trillion, getting $5 billion closer by the day, while the real national debt has already surpassed $56 trillion.  Though cloaked in fear, this clip makes the point rather clearly.  It's also the point 6-year-old Sam made so eloquently.  When today's teenagers learn what happened to their futures without consent, expect an assault on entitlements in response.  Book it.  Runs 32 seconds.

  • ATTORNEY: My sincere condolences upon the passing of your loved one.  Upon review of the will, your grandfather has bequeathed to you, this stack of bills!
  • NARRATOR: Our government's irresponsible programs will leave our country buried under 9 trilliion dollars in new spending with no plans for payment, shackling our children with an inheritance of debt.
