How about this for a contract with america… If you folks in washington can sustainably balance the budget, then we the people will tackle the national debt. We give loads of money to earthquake victims, feeding the poor in foreign countries. Start a national charity that brings the whole country together for fundraising. Some examples: let local fire departments cobrand (half to them, half to the national debt). Elementary schools can do bake sales. Every community group could do 50/50 raffles specifically for the national debt. I mean everywhere. Something on the scale of the war bond effort during the great war. every corner of the country. Start organizing it now, but let congress know that there is NOTHING UNTIL and UNLESS you stop the bleeding by balancing the budget sustainably (year over year).
No, go after the Government Insider Trading Employies, and take all their gain and apply it to the debt, back 10 years !
