School House Rocks – Tyrannosaurus Debt
You will find your self singing this tune on your way to work, in the elevator, etc Like the Original School House Rocks it is a catchy song that helps you learn history. Abreviated and maybe not 100% accurate but at least you remember something right.
To help you out, here are the lyrics to help you sing along.
TOUR GUIDE: To your left, folks, is the Washington Monument, to your right, the White House. And over there, just beyond the Capitol, is the National Debt!
TOURISTS: Oooo! Wow!
There’s something huge
Red, white, and blue
That’s grazing in D.C.
It’s gobbling up the taxes
That are paid by you and me
It doesn’t seem to notice
We really can’t afford
The billions that it’s costing us
To pay its room and board
It doesn’t roam
But seems content
To dwell on Capitol Hill
As long as trucks keep pulling up
With tons of green-back bills
We’ve got to feed the big guy
We really can’t forget
It has an awesome appetite
Tyrannosaurus Debt
TOUR GUIDE: The debt was born in 1790 when our new government took over 75 million the colonies spent in the Revolutionary War.
We’ve got to feed the monster
So it doesn’t get upset
It’s got an awesome appetite
Tyrannosaurus Debt
TOUR GUIDE: Alexander Hamilton, our first Secretary of the Treasury (he’s on the 10, you know), wanted a federal debt to provide a reason to establish taxes to support our new nation.
The debt was young, they kept it small
They didn’t know back then
In 1812 another war would make it grow again
By ’66 the Civil War had cost the nation millions
The government in Washington now had a debt of billions
TOUR GUIDE: The Civil War ran up a debt of almost three billion dollars that still wasn’t paid off by World War One.
We’re spending money we don’t have
Or so it would appear
The deficit is that amount we overspend each year
Though congressmen and senators
Make vows to cut its size
Despite their honest efforts
The debt just seems to rise
TOUR GUIDE: Now the debt’s over 4 trillion dollars and still growing…
A balanced budget would be great
To spend within our means
To stop the monster in its tracks
Before we bust our seams
It feeds on just the interest
Its appetite is whet
It never, ever stops to rest
Tyrannosaurus Debt
TOUR GUIDE: And this is the U.S. Treasury. It sells Treasury Bonds, bills, and notes, and savings bonds to finance the debt. The U.S. government promises to pay the owner interest plus the value of each bond at a future date.
We’ve got to try to tame the debt
And bring it down to size
To let it grow unchecked like this
Is certainly unwise
The debt’s a monster problem
That we really can’t ignore
I guess we should be grateful
That it’s not a carnivore
We’ve got to keep on servicing
Our trillion dollar pet
It’s got a monster appetite
Tyrannosaurus debt
A fiscal misadventure
With trillion dollar dentures
Tyrannosaurus Debt
TOUR GUIDE: Feeding time is ALL the time.

Crash Course: Chapter 8 – The Fed & Money Creation by Chris Martenson
Chapter 8 (The Fed Money Creation): Chapter 7 explained money creation via money loaned into existence by banks, on the local level. Chapter 8 explains money creation by the Federal Reserve, where we learn that it is manufactured out of thin air. Perpetual expansion is a requirement of modern banking. The banking system MUST continually expand, because that is how it was designed. By understanding the requirement for continual expansion we will be in a better position to make informed decisions about what is likely to transpire and take meaningful actions to enhance our prospects.

Crash Course: Chapter 7 – Money Creation by Chris Martenson
Crash Course Chapter 7 (money Creation): Understanding how money is created provides a foundation for appreciating the implications of our massive levels of debt, because it tells us how that debt came into being. As John Kenneth Galbraith once said, “The process by which money is created is so simple, the mind is repelled.” Dr. Martenson walks us through this simple process of fractional reserve banking.

$78.8 Trillion; United States Debt Obligations exceed world GDP; Monetary Collapse Looming?
How in the world are we going to pay off all of this debt? Raising taxes to do it would burden our economy, and then the situation would only get worse. To me the solution is obvious, cut spending.
For too long in this country we’ve had the give-me-stuff people standing there with their hand out, and the government putting something in it. Does the idea of small government ring a bell? It is what our founding Fathers had in mind when they gave us our constitution. That is why there is a list in the constitution that quite clearly spells out the powers of the federal government, and also what it is not allowed to do. So basically if it was not listed as a power, then they are to stay away from it, and allow the States to handle it.
Just take a look at federal laws. At the very beginning they will state their authority in enacting the law, and it is almost always the commerce clause. I’m sure they even think that just because your computer is hooked up to the internet, and therefore has contact with other computers in other States, that they then would have the constitutional right of regulating your computer, and thereby your internet communications; they are out of control.

Federal obligations exceed world GDP
Does $65.5 trillion terrify anyone yet?
As the Obama administration pushes through Congress its $800 billion deficit-spending economic stimulus plan, the American public is largely unaware that the true deficit of the federal government already is measured in trillions of dollars, and in fact its $65.5 trillion in total obligations exceeds the gross domestic product of the world.
The total U.S. obligations, including Social Security and Medicare benefits to be paid in the future, effectively have placed the U.S. government in bankruptcy, even before new continuing social welfare obligation embedded in the massive spending plan are taken into account.
The real 2008 federal budget deficit was $5.1 trillion, not the $455 billion previously reported by the Congressional Budget Office, according to the “2008 Financial Report of the United States Government” as released by the U.S. Department of Treasury.
The difference between the $455 billion “official” budget deficit numbers and the $5.1 trillion budget deficit cited by “2008 Financial Report of the United States Government” is that the official budget deficit is calculated on a cash basis, where all tax receipts, including Social Security tax receipts, are used to pay government liabilities as they occur.
But the numbers in the 2008 report are calculated on a GAAP basis (“Generally Accepted Accounting
Practices”) that include year-for-year changes in the net present value of unfunded liabilities in social insurance programs such as Social Security and Medicare.
Under cash accounting, the government makes no provision for future Social Security and Medicare benefits in the year in which those benefits accrue.
“As bad as 2008 was, the $455 billion budget deficit on a cash basis and the $5.1 trillion federal budget deficit on a GAAP accounting basis does not reflect any significant money [from] the financial bailout or Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP, which was approved after the close of the fiscal year,” economist John Williams, who publishes the Internet website Shadow Government Statistics, told WND.
“The Congressional Budget Office estimated the fiscal year 2009 budget deficit as being $1.2 trillion on a cash basis and that was before taking into consideration the full costs of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, before the cost of the Obama nearly $800 billion economic stimulus plan, or the cost of the second $350 billion in TARP funds, as well as all current bailouts being contemplated by the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve,” he said.
“The federal government’s deficit is hemorrhaging at a pace which threatens the viability of the financial system,” Williams added. “The popularly reported 2009 [deficit] will clearly exceed $2 trillion on a cash basis and that full amount has to be funded by Treasury borrowing.

Eliminating Debt with Bad Debts
The national debt is making highs it hasn’t seen in a long time. In fact, higher than we have ever seen. The amount of people whom owe to financial institutions like JP Morgan and Citi is very high. The amount owed to the credit card companies and any other company keeps going higher.
This is because we live in a system where we charge interest and this comes from no where but the increase of debt. Because the central bankers all over the world monopolize the money system, it is impossible to pay this debt back. If we were on a gold and/or silver standard then we could at least mine our own metals to pay interest expenses and charging interest could work.
It does not work with fiat dollars and in this video I go through what seems to be accounting basics that would eliminate debt. However, for this to happen we would need to see all the creditors of the world be nice to eliminate debt. This in turn would lower than equity and profits significantly.
Thank you for watching
