If they truly think we have to pay off our debt in order to fund healthcare, feed the poor, fund education etc. why don't we just execute the tiny percent of people who own that debt or just cancel it? Same result either way right?
By defunding these programs to pay off our debt, we are effectively killing and brutalizing millions. I think my solution is more humane.
Debt cannot be destroyed, only transferred. Like the curse ailment in Dark Souls.
