Ten Trillion and Counting

I watched a terrific but sobering PBS/Frontline documentary last night entitled "Ten Trillion and Counting". It originally aired in March of '09, so is quite recent. The documentary explores our mounting national debt and the politics behind it. The United States is borrowing money like mad just to function and, sooner or later, it's got to end--which will mean much higher taxes, cutting services to the bone or financial catastrophe.
