I got news for ya, the budget will never be balanced , they cant even pay china the interest on it now .
Only way that it could be balanced , would be for the gov. itself to find a huge amount of gold on gov. land , big enough to wipe out the debt.
Maybe. Maybe not. Done going there in this thread. OP started a thread about space. Apologies to him if I had anything to do with derailing to politics.
