Consequences of Growing National Debt-In class today we watched a short introduction to the documentary I.O.U.S.A. which discusses the “rapidly growing national debt and its consequences for the United States and its citizens.”
I would like you to watch the documentary and submit a written reaction to its content. Your written submission must be at least 500 words, typed using Times New Roman font, font size 12, and double-spaced, with page margins of one-inch. Please feel free to submit a longer response.

The documentary is a little dated. Therefore, you should also watch some of the videos available here:
