Democratic Senator Ed Markey of Massachusetts said during a Foreign Relations Committee hearing that our $19 trillion national debt is "not actually right now" a threat to the country.
After Chairman Senator Bob Corker retrieved his jaw from the floor, he told Markey that was a "crackpot" idea.
"I've said many times that I believe the single, biggest threat to our national security is our debt, so I also believe we have every responsibility to help eliminate that threat,"

It seems as if the term national debt is as politically incorrect as the word nigger because there is not a politician in any federal party in the US or Canada who will say it.
