The U.S. Debt Ceiling - Continued...The U.S. debt ceiling is frequently confused with the trade deficit, deficit spending, the national debt and our unfunded liabilities. The debt ceiling tells Congress what the limit on their charge card is, while the national debt tells us what our outstanding national credit card balance actually is at any one time. The trade deficit is the difference between our total exports and total imports (and we are a net importer and this is not good). Our unfunded liabilities are all of the legal debts our fiscal appropriations processes have contracted under law to require us to provide, but for which we have no current means of satisfying (i.e.: there are no tax revenues identified to pay for them at this time - they are over and above all our spending and tax receipts today and include the national debt). Currently, we have approximately $107 trillion in unfunded liabilities and this is almost twice the wealth of the rest of the planet's population combined. Obviously this is not a good thing and stands as an indictment of our current fiscal appropriations system's shortfalls and failures.
