Just checked our national debt. did you know there's actually a site showing our debt, down to the penny?
http://www.publicdebt.treas.gov/opd/opdpenny.htm
Assuming that national debt is repaid at about $4 Bln/year, we're looking at about 20 - 30 years of debt repayment, at aproximate slice of about $25,000 per EVERY person (adult, child, retiree), broken down into convenient monthly payments for the next 360 or so months.
Now, if your family has 4 people, you're looking at your share of $100,000 war tab (not counting the accumulated interest and dollar devaluation). Give or take.
Want to chip in?

Funny, I didn't realize there was no national debt prior to Dubya taking office. $8T for the war alone! Croiky!:rolleyes: |

| Relax, the U.S. is not going to go bankrupt. There's a little thing called the debt ceiling which they will have to raise in order to avoid this. |
