U.S. National Debt Clock

well basically you owe about $29,948.11. Now if you can pay that right now you can pay in monthly installments of $462.19 for 20 years at 18.00%


Sorry no IOUs. But how about sharing some nuclear secrets for a low interest rate?

I can beat that. I'll give you an adjustable loan starting at 7% with a balloon at the end.
