    We're borrowing money from countries like China and Saudi Arabia, making us indebted to them and no longer the global super power we once were. It's embarrassing and sad that our children and grandchildren will be the ones to pay for Congress' negligence. We were once a nation of self-dependent workers and entrepreneurs. Now nearly 1 in 5 Americans depend on the government to take care of them. The very mention of rolling back these dependency programs brings screams of "you hate so and so," and no spending can ever be cut. Take action before it's too late. We can either continue on this path of increased spending and borrowing, or we can turn things around and protect our childrens' financial future.

    Total federal debt is now surpassing $15T, and that doesnt count the more than $50T the government owes in unfunded retirement promises. The debt exceeds our GDP. And, you guys agreed to raise the debt ceiling $1.2T higher back in January. Just do the math once: The federal government collected $2.2T last year--a huge bunch of money that is nowhere near the $3.7 T it SPENT! You are part of this problem. We (the taxpayers) need a change.

    It's past time to STOP THE SPENDING and the illegal ENTITLEMENTS. FDR'S work programs could solve lots of problems - reenact WPA or something verrrrrry similar.
