lies about the national debt being dumped on our children

I'm sick of the politicians (Democrats during Bush's tenure, Republicans now) complaining that the national debt is placing an enormous burden on our children. I have news for all of these pols, the DEBT IS PLACING AN ENORMOUS BURDEN ON US, RIGHT NOW. And when the debt crisis really hits, we will ALL see our standards of living fall. If we don't do the right things (free up the economy, cut spending by a bare minimum or 43%), yes, our children and grandchildren will suffer. But if we do the right things, we will have some adjustments for our way of life, but we will leave the children and grandchildren a free and prosperous place.
