It’s hard to get my mind around such a large number, but the Debt Clock breaks it down to the debt of each American citizen. One thing this clock makes clear. The income side of the balance sheet requires one thin and one thing only: Taxes. America, we can’t have it both ways. We can;t have low or no debt AND low or no taxes. Each of us must pay our fair share of tax revenues!
