How do we get out of a $14 trillion debt? Honestly, I have no idea, but I know it'll take a very long time. Perhaps the tax cuts might have contributed to our debt, or maybe the spending on defense and stuff. Obviously it's easier to spend than to gain. However, perhaps if we somehow stop everything we're doing and focus on rebuilding our economy, the debt will slowly go away.

Since I know nothing about our government, my suggestions are all based on natural instinct. If I owe someone money, I would make sure to pay them back as soon as possible. I would stop all these complicated things, like tax cuts and trust funds (no idea what would happen if that did occur). Everything should be simple; we fix our budget and do one thing at a time each year, instead of splitting it up on so many different areas of concern. Our nation's birthday isn't Gemini, so we can't multitask.

Perhaps we should establish better relations with other countries, or totally annihilate them to establish dominance. But then that would just lead to other conflicts. I think we should just isolate ourselves for a while, just enough to erase half our debt or something. Basically, we need to be more independent, and stop with other affairs. While it's not morally just for us to ignore everything, we should look out for ourselves first. Then, after we're financially stable, we can help or interact with other countries. I have no idea what would happen if my plan were to occur.
