Just A Reminder

The estimated net worth of American families is slightly over $47 trillion, and nearly all of it -- 90 per-cent -- would be needed to cover government's current obligations. And don't think we can grow our way out of this hole. According to the GAO, it would take real double-digit growth over the next 75 years to pay off our current debt--an impossible task, considering that the growth rate during the 1990s boom years averaged just 3.2 percent.

Oh, by the way, that was written a year ago.
