National Debt Clock
Running Out of Room

Well, it looks like the National Debt Clock is about to be replaced. Why? Because it has room for only 13 digits, not 14 that will be required for our quickly approaching national debt of $14 trillion. With today's looming financial crisis, I guess it won't be very long before that 14th digit space will be needed.

It's amazing how our government's financial situation and families financial burdens across the nation are similar. They're both bogged down in the "D" word---DEBT. We as families and individuals have to get out of debt, and we need to start now.
