RANDOM MUSINGS FROM THE TOP OF THE HILL

1/08/2018

JANUARY 8

On this date in 1835, the National Debt of the United States of America was $0 - this date in 1835 is also the last time it was ZERO.  So, one hundred eighty-three years ago today, we didn't owe "nobody nothin'."  Whatcha' think about that?  

Is owing a bad thing?  Not necessarily.  Depends on to whom, how much, at what cost and for how long.  

Who thinks it will ever be $0 again?  "Not I" said the fly.  "Not me" said the bee.  "Not Pat" said the cat.

183 years ago today.
