According to Kevin Williamson at National Review Online, America’s debt is “more than all of the money in the world.” If this doesn’t wake our country’s leaders up to the debt/deficit crisis we are currently facing, nothing will. On the bright side, President Obama recently announced his plan to stimulate the economy””injecting $50 billion into building roads, railways and airport runways. Wait, that’s not good news. Good grief.

There’s a reason the saying “those who don’t learn from history are condemned to repeat it” is a saying. It’s because it’s true.
