Our estimated debt is going to reach $15 Trillion today.  We should have a party or something.  It will mark a 50% increase in the debt in just three years. 

That's more than half the value of every home in the US.  It's $4 trillion more than the total value of the New York Stock exchange.

Congress went right out and charged up that new credit card we gave them, didn't they?
