Look it up!
I see... your solution is to propose fantastic scenarios that have absolutely no chance of actually happening, and then pretend you've offered a real solution.True, my State repudiated its debt in the 1880's - I understand ilDuce repudiated his COUNTRY's debt in the 30's (I think)
I do think the consequences would be a disaster however
No need to do that either.
If we hand our grandkids a debt of $20T when they have a GDP of $45T, absolutely no one will be complaining.
With the current deficits, $20T debt will be here is 5 years or less.
How, exactly, do you propose tripling our GDP by 2017?
I don't. We don't have to.
Rolling back the Bush Tax Rates coupled with decent economic growth and some targeted cuts could easily put us with no deficit by 2017. Then we just maintain it. We don't pay down the debt and we don't add to it.
