America's new debt ceiling - $19,600,000,000,000 (thats in the trillions if you were not sure)
Thats $60,000 debt for every man, woman and child in the country.
Ticking timebomb waiting to blow, keeping the gold nicely polished waiting for the day


The debt ceiling matters little. This figure is constantly used as a tool to mislead others. Considering that the vast majority of this debt is owned by Americans themselves it makes little difference.
