Background: Years of unsustainable government spending by Republicans and Democrats are bankrupting our country. Debt is a symptom of such overspending. And the US gross debt has reached $14 trillion -- the size of the US economy. This has only happened once before in American history: World War II.

But cheer up and don't let the sobering facts get you down on St. Patrick's Day! Because the Bankrupting America community is getting the message out that Washington must cut spending. You can help by sharing this video now!

I don’t think it really matters whether our deficit is growing or being decreased. The whole concept of the monetary system and debt creation is a fictitious andinstituted as way of subjugation. Obama or whoever else preceded him is following orders from select few that control the game. either way we lose.

Guys, if any of you have credit problems, call -888-338-3875 -. They helped me restore my credit history within 3mnts(2 years of struggle), and they are cheap. Class acts.

They say that over 300 million Americans has at least $40k debt each. Equal to the national debt right now. I however, have no debt of no kind.

@SALEHinCANADA I hope to god you're kidding. Otherwise, the human race is clearly doomed if there are real people with attitudes like yours.

@Boehnertard2012doom I was under the illusion that I owned stuff that my husband and I paid for at one time too. Come to find out, the government says I have to pay for the right to say its mine every year and not only me, but if we will it to our children after we die, then they also have to continue to pay. We paid sales tax on it all when we bought it and yet we still pay tax after tax, year after year. We have death taxes; sin taxes; sales taxes; air taxes; etc. taxes,... it never ends!

[MsTruthordie]

We can't go against our big giant enemies, until we quit fighting the little guys who aren't against you!! The government doesn't need more money; they have all they money they need... They are after power and the way they do that, is by making sure its people can't or won't fight against them for taking it.

@Boehnertard2012doom Why do men get so offended when they are presented with ideas that don't agree with their own? No one expects us all to know this stuff before it's mentioned. Lay down your pride and pick up a little humility; don't be afraid to learn something new every day; and please forgive me for knowing something you didn't know before. God bless!

@Boehnertard2012doom- In other words: Who's keeping score? And why? Credit in and of itself is DEBT!!! Needing credit means you want something, or you attained something, without having what is required of you to attain it. So, what do you need a credit score for, if you don't have debt, or you don't plan on attaining debt in the future? Credit scores; credit cards; loans; it all equals the government illusion that credit is necessary. It is only necessary for them to keep its citizens inslaved.

@Boehnertard2012doom It's lady, thank you. I'm sorry that you have been offended by my observations. Chill out; you cannot be a citizen of the United States and not have debt. The government won't allow any one of us to be debt free. That's what this video describes. What do you think our countries credit score looks like? Just being a part of this country; says we are in debt! Being in debt does not mean you don't pay debts on time; it just says that you pay for your debts on time.
