"What are you, some kind of racist? A right-wing extremist? Don't worry about who pays it back, you're getting free money today!" "Well, someone has to pay it back, right? So how much of this debt has the US government racked up, in total?" "$37 trillion." "Sounds like a lot." "It's just a number. So can we sign up up for the subsidy?" "Well, that's just the debt. So how much are we paying in interest on it?" "WHY DO YOU CARE? What, are you with some right-wing think tank?" "So you can't answer it?" "We're paying more than $X trillion a year in interest. Now what?" "And how much new debt is the US govt adding to that $XX trillion, each year?" "We're racking up $X trillion in new debt every XXX days."
