The United States Government needs to stop funding other countries when we are so far in debt ourselves. Our current national debt as of 16 March 2014 at 12:09 AM GMT is $17,517,170,416,454.44. The estimated population of the United States is 317,830,695 so each citizen's share of this debt is $55,114.78. That is more than the price of a new 2014 Ford F-450. If we were to cut funding to other countries we would immediately see an increase in our nations economy. We would also see a monumental decrease in our Nations debt. In addition to cutting funding we should as a Nation entertain the idea that if we were to stop paying other countries to make our products for our country we would see an increase in jobs, economy, as well as a decrease in the homeless population, uneducated youth, etc.
