As long as your grandkids co-sign.
Get to work! The overlords are depending on your obedience.
Funny how our unfunded liabilities are greater than the entire world’s GDP combined…oh wait, no it’s not…
Edit: I stand corrected…it’s only close “GWP (gross world product): $63.17 trillion (2010)” from the CIA World Factbook

Still looks unpayable though.

I’m agreeing with you.
And we will cut nothing because no one wants to feel the pain.
Cut the Military? You hate America
Cut Social Security? You hate poor people
Cut Medicare? You want to kill old people
Cut foreign aid to everyone? Your an anti-semite
Get rid of the department of energy? Really no hate word for this yet so they may happen.
Get rid of the department of education? You hate children
Get rid of the EPA? You want to world to reach 10000000 degree’s and everyone to die
Get out of the housing market? You hate poor people
So yeah we are fucked.
