During the 1940 census (according to the late David McCord Wright, an American economist) a housewife was asked if she had a mortgage on her home. “Yes,” she replied. “For $40 billion.” That figure (about 40% of 1940 GDP) now seems quaint. The federal debt held by the public was $8.9 trillion in August 2010, or about 60% of GDP. Add to that the Treasury debt held by America’s public-pension scheme, and the national debt reached $10 trillion back in September 2008. The extra digit obliged the national debt clock near New York’s Times Square to move its dollar sign to make room. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
