Your Share Of The Debt

The Outstanding Public Debt as of 22 Nov 2010 at 09:13:52 PM GMT is: $13,802,062,378,229.40

The estimated population of the United States is 309,527,930 so each citizen’s share of this debt is $44,590.68.

The National Debt has continued to increase an average of $4.17 billion per day since September 28, 2007!


Unemployment Rate:
9.6% in Oct 2010 is equivalent to 29,714,681 People who are not working not counting those who are on a Pension and over 65. People under 20 years of age made up over a quarter of the U.S. population (27.3%), and people age 65 and over made up one-eighth (12.8%) in 2009.

So now take that 9.6% who are not working and the 27.3% who are under age, and 12.8% who are over 65 and you have a total of 49.75 of the US population who do not contribute to the National Debt nor GDP.

So instead of each citizen paying 44,590.68 to the Debt., you now have 155,537,785 people who are working and can pay the debt.

This means each working citizen owes the US Gov $88,737.68 and for each day you do not pay you then owe an additional $26.81 to the pot.

Each working adult in the USA owes almost $90,000 in debt on top of their own mortgage, and credit cards and car loans.

And the US dollar is dropping in value and is no longer considered the fiat currency of the world as other countries begin to dump it and replace it with gold.
