Devalue the dollar.  Have our government devalue the U.S. Dollar by lets say 20% - 30%.  As our Government would then have a cash stimulous to pay off our debt, the U.S. citizens would keep paying their bills in our dollars, and the national debt would be almost eliminated.  The dollar owed china would be paid in $0.75 dollars.  The jobs lost overseas would come back almost immediately, construction would pick-up, and we would be able to impose all of our military might whever we wanted it.

Could it cause runaway inflation, who cares our interest rates are soo low a little boost would certainly help.

Sounds like a good idea, but if Obama were to do it, the Republicans would attempt to throw him out as it would only hurt the idle rich, international money people, illegal foreign account holders, and many more Republicans than Democrats.  It would also hurt the shipping industry as it could be cheeper to make the products here that overseas.  

The rich wouldn't even have the opportunity to cash in on it.  They wouldn't even defeat Obama in the next election, as the Republicans would have to admit they are attempting to keep the economy slow as can be, for their own political gains, not for the unemployed or voters.

IT would force REpublicans to be Americans.

  I know. Lets blame it on Bush.

The solution remains simple, just do it.  It will hurt both Republicans and Democrats, but it will benefit the people of the US.  Probably the people who are on this blog won't even care, as it will hurt mainly the rich, and this means the rich would have to pay their fare share.  The other possibility is that many republicans will have to disclose they are Republicans because Mommy and Daddy were, and haven't ever thought for themselves.   Sure would make China seem like a fool, because they may have to buy some of the products made in the USA.  It would also hurt our other "friends" as Canada, Germany, and the U.K. may not like it either.
