It seems these days that the major buzzword is "Sustainability" Everyone is wondering if this activity is sustainable or if that product is sustainable. All of this is leaving me wondering why no one is questioning if our national debt is sustainable?
Take a minute to go to this Website and look at the actual numbers:

Right now the national debt per citizen is approx 344,000 and rising. Could you pay your portion off?
To me it only makes logical sense where this is going, and it is no place good. How can we as a nation possibly sustain this??? That is why I think that it is insane that we are even considering things like health care and climate change legislation which are not truly pressing, when the real emergency is the financial security of our country!
Robert D. Hales said in April 2009 general conference, "the four most caring words for those we love are “We can’t afford it.”" It is time our legislators started loving this country and showing discipline by eliminating the things that we cannot afford and helping us get out of this mess!
