You have to remember, the gumint doesn't RUN out of money. It has NO money. Never has, and never will. It only has what it takes from US. Printing money doesn't count either, only makes what money we do have worth less. Like I explained to someone else. whats a hundred dollar bill worth to you? He said a hundred dollars, I said OK what if you and everybody else could just go out and pick them up off trees? ( IE, PRINTING YOUR OWN CASH? )Then whats it worth? For some reason he understood it that way.
