$9,372,462,330,025.07 Dollars on the National Debt.

Divided by 303,989,787 (estimated current population of the USA.)

= $30,831.50 per person.

And that's in *total*.

Now, let's take approximately 13 Trillion for the total budget
and say that 50% is spent on entitlements and their associated
debt load (it's actually higher than that, probably closer to
60%, but I won't quibble with details:

6.5 Trillion/303,989,787 is about $24,000/person PER YEAR. It's not
the war that's bankrupting us, it's entitlements. Period.


And after eight years of a Republican Administration, you find fault
with whom?
