Based on the forbes 400, there is quite a bit of money that liberal billionaires could give to offset national debt.

I think that it has been pointed out that, who really needs more than $1B?

Bill Gates is worth $54B. If he gave $53B to the US Government, he'd still have $1B.

So here's how much these billionaires could give and still have $1B left
Gates - $53B
Buffet - $44B
Bloomberg - $17B
Page (google) - $14B
Brin (google) - $14B
Soros - $13B
Zuckerberg - $12B
Jobs - $5B
Schmidt - $4B
Geffen - $4B
Lucas - $2B
Spielberg - $2B

That is $170 billion dollars that could be applied to debt principal. And it wouldn't inconvenience these fat cat billionaires at all. Why wait until death, give now!
