It's all over T.V. and the newspapers. The United States of America is in a debt crisis. I believe that we should not owe all this money to certain countries! We helped most of them fight off Hitler and the Nazi's in World War 2 by giving them ammo and food. We let the people of other nations live in this country and we help them when a natural disasters such as the earthquake in Japan strike. They owe us for what we do and I think that the leaders of this country need to make that known! History repeats itself. America is the Roman Empire of our days and if not careful, we will soon meet the same fate that one of the most powerful nations of all time fell to.

I'm a teenager who cares about modern day predicaments and wants to make a better future for this country and I just hope that those who read this article will have the same passion for America as I do.
