Makes sense; but if you adjust this by workweek (approx 34 hours) then it takes 20 minutes to add a dollar in debt; divide by people employed / total (137/306MM) then a dollar in debt is added every 9 minutes.

In other words: during a working hour the public debt per employee rises nearly $7 (while the employee makes $18 per hour on average).

That´s quite an uphill battle.
