Dtroit's current debt is roughly 18.5 billion dollars.
The current population of Detroit is 706,585.
Do the math to discover that every single Detroiter owes $26,182.

The national debt is approaching 17 trillion. (16,737,246,099,998)
The population of the U.S. is 316,285,000.
Do the math to discover that every American owes $52,918.

The national debt per person is double Detroit's debt per person.

And, growing by leaps and bounds.

Think I will max out my lines of credit and cards.  May as well go broke before the government takes my money and spends it.  We can go bankrupt at the same time!!!
