America's Debt

An easy to understand analogy of the Nations Debt

Sam was in his car going to visit his three nephews
they liked to call him Uncle Sam

Sam got into a car accident and cut an artery in his leg
and Sam was bleeding very badly and could die

A man standing on Sam's rignt side said, "We have to
apply a tourniquet to stop the bleeding or he will die"

A man standing on Sam's left side said, "No, all we need 
to do is give him more blood"

Who do you think Uncle Sam should listen to ?
