Default Who America Owes

In today's AJC Sunday Paper, Parade Mag. pg 6, has a breakdown of who we owe money to.
Japan 585.9B
China 541 B
UK 307.4B
OPEC Nations 179.8B
Caribbean Nat. 147.7B

The Reb. party used to be pro-business and less taxes. Now they spend and owe. We cannot continue on the road we are on. The bill is due. I would gladly pay more taxes to know I wasn't paying interest to the likes of Chavez. We have some diffcult desicions in the upcoming months and years. I thought we owed the most to China.

I was expecting this response. Your country caused it, but your arrogant about it.

"We caused the crisis, but so what, we're American, we can do what we want". Thats how the USA comes across.
