This country needs to find ways to transfer the debt payments from going to foreign interest and have the money come back into our economy. If that means paying higher interest on bonds to Americans it is a better way to go than chocking the economy by adding taxes. While they waste billions throwing money at the failed school system they should try and get the young interested in savings. Why not return to the days when there was pride in this country.
