I don't believe those in power have any motivation to pay off the national debt. Banks get rich and all the power people work with the banks.

Years ago, I read about a 4th grade school teacher who held a contest in her classroom. She asked her students to come up with a way to pay the national debt. One of her students won; his idea involved the government selling tee shirts. It was a workable solution to the problem.

There are a number of potential workable solutions, but no one is willing to apply any of them.
