I found this site that has some interesting facts about the national debt
As we all know "we should cap federal government spending at below 20 % of the national gross domestic product." was the winning thought about the national debt. This means that they want the government to spend 20% less on foreign goods than the total value of goods and services the US earns a year. I honestly believe that this quote only one because the other one had the phrase, raise taxes. That's what stood out in that quote. Though not all of us have a job we do know what tax raises are and how they can effect our family. I do believe the students did not fully understand the issue. If they did they would realize they voted for an option where the plan is to only cut spending by lowering the percentage of how much we can spend. Look at all our debt and look at all the products that say something other than made in America. Point being our gdp is not that high and if or budget for spending is 20% of that amount there goes not only all our bells and whistles but our fuel sources.
