Camel's Back !!! Baloon Bursting !!! What about our Debt???

Our parents and grandparents were appalled when the Government’s spending and debts were put in numbers as Billions and Tens of Billions. Now our government expects us to accept Trillions as the norm. Make that Tens of Trillions!!!!
There is a straw out there and the camel's back is sagging!!!

Remember watching a child pushing a pin into a balloon. One second the balloon is filled with air and then, in an instant, it has burst. The child cries and apologizes. He can’t understand what happened. He didn’t mean to break the balloon. While he was pushing in the pin, the child felt in control. Everything was going his way. Only after the balloon burst did he realize he went too far.

Could our current debt be that balloon? Will we only know the mistake we made after the balloon breaks? If it does break, then what? Maybe it’s time to pull the pin away from the balloon!!!!!!
