That is of course absolutely true. However I think the
primary evil is not government debt, the mother of all evil is
the large percentage of the economy that the government
controls. I would rather see a small government deeply in
debt than a huge government that can account for every
penny. Even better than both would be no government at all.
Samantha, on other matters we disagree very very deeply,
but on this particular question I don't think your opinion
would be radical different from mine.
