As the DC Swamp and other US State governments reach the point of no longer paying out what is owed, or not getting Federal $$$$, things will get very nasty quickly.

The DC Swamp needs to seriously look at AMERICA FIRST and start balancing the budget.
Otherwise, in 2030 we are looking $46+ Trillion national debt.
Which is about 7 x's annual collected Tax revenues.

ie. No more Taxpayer funded foreign governments that just turn on us and bite us. (eg. Somilia), no more Taxpayer raised single parent families for votes.

Blame of how they got us here, can be shared all around.

But here is a A Visual Chart showing the growth of the national debt since 1970 and the president/admin involved.
