That's how bad the debt situation is.

It's so tiring listening to fools fall for the class warfare game.
Not only will increasing taxes on the rich not make a dent, taking everything they have won't make a dent-but then again it's not about the debt is it? It's about your hatred of successful people isn't it?

Personally, I am extremely thankful for the rich because everyone I know who has a job works for a rich person.

If you took everynes money it probably would not cover the debt The DEBT is the US is well over $3 QUADRILLION, which is well over 3000 Trillion. Your income taxes go to the Federal Reserve in payment of massive debt and not to our treasury. The treasury continues to borrow, because the small amount of taxes it does receive hardly covers this countries bills.

You people have no clue.

Some 1/4 of the world's entire GDP is stashed in offshore accounts.

For many the only jobs they provide are for their tax lawyers and paying people to clean up their shit.

Most of the debt is also 'owed' to these same nitwits so who the fuck cares - just default.

we do not have NESARA, it FAILED. And now the CHINESE OWN the FED, (which is the global central bank folks), and they aren't about to do NESARA. The NESARA as presented by 4 winds, is not Nesara and Never was. Dove did not Understand it. It cannot ever be manifested as long as major powers own the FEd in fact. it included getting this country out of the FED in fact and that did not happen. I DO KNOW THE DETAILS of this. So stop hoping on it, it cannot happen.

But Obama needs to blame somebody... and he knows that the poor people who follow his every word will agree with him that the rich people are evil for not giving them their money. That's one of Obamanations "look over there, not over here" tricks. "Be mad at the rich 1%, not at the crooked government."

If all countries owe money, who do they owe it too?

The banks.

It's a big con. All they have to do is cancel all debts and we continue on just fine.

If Congress imposed a 100 percent tax, taking all earnings above $250,000 per year, it would yield the princely sum of $1.4 trillion. That would keep the government running for 141 days, but there's a problem because there are 224 more days left in the year.

Taking corporate profits would keep the government running for another 40 days, but that along with confiscating all income above $250,000 would only get us to the end of June.

Agree OP rich people are not the problem, psychopaths however need to be forcibly evicted from the gene pool.
Again rich people are not the problem , rich corporations that are for all intents and purposes , treated like people need to be dismantled.
Rich institutions secular/religious , charities , trusts , foundations, etc . Need to be dragged out from the rectum of humanity like a slimy parasitic shit eatin wyrm . Then examined under a microscope to determine their value if any to humanity.

Mind reading machinery, Gene testing science and all other various and sundry technologies. Need to be utilized on any and all elected or selected "leaders" to determine whether their actions are in the best interest of humanity as a whole and if not be ostracized onto an island with others just like themselves for life.

America would have great prosperity if we cut ALL gov programs by 50%, eliminated all taxes on manufacturing (they would return), and closed our borders.
These are the tough decisions that will have to be made. We know that no democrat politician would support any of these and 95% of republicans would oppose them-so we will collapse. Afterall, we have allowed our politicians to give themselves lifetime pensions and medicare paid by us so why do they care?

Who is creating the money then? The money is created out of thin air and "loaned" to the government at compounding interest.

SOMEONE is creating the money and loaning this fiction money out creating these massive debts.

Might that someone creating and loaning this money dirty filthy rich? I mean Rothschild/Rockefeller/Saxe-Coburg-Gotha rich?

Why not take THEIR money away then. The bankers and all their lickspittle stooges then.

Yes, I know "rich" people as the media defines them as making 100-250K a year didn't create the problem. But someone did. Let's look at who created the problem and make THEM pay for it.

Anybody think this is odd, or has anyone even thought of it this way...

Obama (the administration) is targeting the wealthy...big oil, jet owners, etcetc. But he is the one who placed the target on the firong range. He set them up with subsidies and bailouts. A tax break on private jets was part of his recovery package.
