Well your number is wrong. But the point of the matter is since Bush came into office cut a great portion of taxes,stole money from other parts of the budget and is still spending more money than they are taking in it is getting worse. I know how much people complain about taxes but where do you think a government gets the money to run the country? The reason welfare,medicare, programs for underfunded schools are in place is to help the troubled people of this country. The repubs like keeping people dumb by taking the money away from public schools so that they become their sheep. The reason they dont like welfare is because it helps the poor. Granted it could use some better regulation to get the people that are on it to get jobs but its still in place to help. The reason they dont like medicare is because it works off the premise of helping people get the medical attention that they need at lowerd cost. Which their drug company backers dont like. This is also the reason they passed the bill introduced by the people backed by the drug companys to make it illegal to get the cheaper medicines from Canada.

Don't forget that the GREATEST PORTION of the national debt number represents welfare, military, gov't overhead,medicare, social security, etc. Only 18.578% of the national debt is 'external debt' or money that the U.S. owes to other countries.
Thus 81.422% of the national debt is money that we owe to ourselves and so doesn't really count.
