Several people have asked me to comment on the YouTube video “Brother Can You Spare a $Trillion“.

Link in case the embedded video above does not play: Spare a Trillion?

I already have, in advance. I have been harping about interest on the national debt for years, and explicitly brought the subject up twice recently, most recent of which is Interactive Map: Paul Ryan vs. Obama Budget Details; Path of Destruction

Interest on the national debt is a serious issue and unfortunately far too many ignore it.
