dan, a percent of the interest is going back to us citizens, for sure. however, the opportunity cost of that money is that principle is tied up. remember your economic stimulus argument? if folks weren't tied up in bonds then more jobs, etc would be created b/c many would choose alternate investments. my #1 fiscal concern is that the time between $5 trillion and $10 trillion will not be that long once we get bad economic times. squirrels use the good times to save nuts so they have something during the bad times. we could learn a lot from squirrels.
