    What about cutting the military budget before we take away ''entitlements? In the days if hacking and drone strikes, do we truly need all of these tanks, warship and ground troops?

    In 2011 Mr. Greenspan said :"Rising price of previous metals and other commodities are an indication of a very early stage of an endeavor to move away from paper currencies. We have at this particular stage a fiat money which is essentially money printed by a government and it's usually a central bank which is authorized to do so. Some mechanism has got to be in place that restricts the amount of money which is produced, either a gold standard or a currency board because unless you do that, all of history suggest that inflation will take hold with very deleterious effects on economy activity. There are numbers of us, myself included, who strongly believe that we did very well in the 1870 to 1914 with an international gold standard. "

    I have mighty respect for Mr. Greenspan but how can he speak negatively about a fiscal environment he helped to create?

    Watch the Bonds and the Margin debts. That should tell you where the markets are going.

    The bottom line is that government should never be allowed to borrow money....ever....Because they never pay it back

    Greenspan should be revered by all, he's an exceptional powerhouse of economics. People who believe he was the cause of the 07-08 disaster are ignorant and conditioned to believe so

    I agree with you, debt is huge, therefore, government should downsize, and stop bailing out the big business ..

    Entitlements (like Medicare, Welfare, Social Security and Unemployment) are not the only issues. The Military Industrial complex and government employ retirement benefits are also part of the equation. Okay, lets go back to the 1950s. Get rid of Medicare, Welfare and Unemployment insurance. Cut Military spending, balance the budget and cut taxes. How about that Senators?

    I agree, but congress and the Feds still have QEs and tax cuts that creates even greater impact on debt
