Then there is internal debt which is much higher as the cost of war is at 2.1billion a month on average for the last four years alone in Iraq. Not to mention the Afghanistan war, extremely expensive homeland security, botched emergency effort in New Orleans, dozens of natural disasters, domestic auto sector being wiped out. The list is long. Most of your foreign debt is to Canada for energy, raw materials, food and assorted other items. The only three areas on growth in the US is law enforcement ( ironically things like 8million aliens aren't criminals), armed forces and the medical fields. Sad state of direction for any nation. Do not lose focus on how and where they blew the money- The one that really fry's me and should have a FULL investigation was when Bush flew 10 BILLION IN CASH into the waiting hands of military contractors. You can buy a LOT of votes and loyalty with 10 billion, just what did they do to deserve such a reward? How much of that made it back to Bush family coffers?
