America Is In $1.4trn Debt ,every Household Owes N5,656,920 by femiakinbully(m): 2:16pm On Oct 04, 2016 |
For all you people that think America is so perfect and all is well with them...It's not well with them . Their media is very good at shielding the truth and showing the world irrelevant issues which we all gulp like Gluttons . If we divide what America owes (The Federal Reserve ) by the population then each household would be owing (at our current black market rates ) N5,656,920 . Please read below ; Federal Debt in FY 2016 Jumped $1,422,827,047,452.46--That's $12,036 Per Household By Terence P. Jeffrey | October 3, 2016 | 4:36 PM EDT (CNSNews.com) - In fiscal 2016, which ended on Friday, the federal debt increased $1,422,827,047,452.46, according to data released today by the U.S. Treasury. At the close of business on Sept. 30, 2015, the last day of fiscal 2015, the federal debt was $18,150,617,666,484.33, according to the Treasury. By the close of business on Sept. 30, 2016, the last day of fiscal 2016, it had climbed to $19,573,444,713,936.79. According to the Census Bureau’s latest estimate, there were 118,215,000 households in the United States as of June. That means that the one-year increase in the federal debt of $1,422,827,047,452.46 in fiscal 2016 equaled about $12,036 per household. The total federal debt of $19,573,444,713,936.79 now equals about $165,575 per household. The increase in the federal debt in fiscal 2016 was larger than it might have been had Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew not declared what the government calls a “debt issuance suspension period” on March 16, 2015 and kept it going until Nov. 2, 2015--when President Barack Obama signed the “Bipartisan Budget Act,” a spending deal he had cut with the Republican leaders in Congress. During the “debt issuance suspension period,” the Treasury used what it calls “extraordinary measures” to freeze that portion of the federal debt then subject to a legal limit set by Congress at a level just below that legal limit. These “extraordinary measures” largely amounted to changing the way the government accounted for government employee retirement funds, including the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund, the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund, and the Government Securities Investment Fund of the Federal Employees’ Thrift Savings Plan. While using its “extraordinary measures,” the Treasury said that the portion of the “debt subject to the limit” was frozen at $18,112,975,000,000 for 233 straight days. The day Obama signed the budget deal, the total federal debt jumped from $18,152,981,685,747.52 to $18,492,091,120,833.99—a one-day climb of $339,109,435,086.47. The budget deal suspended the debt limit until March 15, 2017. CNSNews.com is not funded by the government like NPR. CNSNews.com is not funded by the government like PBS.

America is in 20 Trillion dollars worth of debt but still remains one of the most powerful countries in the world, do you know why? Because we are f*cking Americans, which means we don't claim to be surviving on less than $2 per day yet a massive amount of the population uses smartphones. It means the government still gives a d*mn about the people and are willing to get in debt to secure the nation. It also means that the world is under America's feet as 85% of the world's economies rely on the Dollar as their reserve. If America goes down, it surely won't go down alone. Instead of focusing on America, focus on Nigeria. Ask yourself this honest question, if our leaders were actually doing the right things such as stable electricity, plenty of jobs, safety and good roads at the cost of Trillions of dollars in debt; would most of us complain? Answer the question honestly! 2 Likes |
