I was thinking. Did you know that the US deficit is over 12 trillion dollars? Not surprised? Well, what if I told you that in 2009 American movie goers spent over 1 trillion dollars in move tickets for just the top 3 movies? What do you think they would say to sending a check, marked "Toward Deficit" on the memo line, in the amount of a amovie ticket once a month? Good idea?

The deficit has nothing to do with people. It happened due to the wars. But at the moment we pay $2billion to China everyday. So I suppose this explains why this deficit is never decreasing. The government has to help people increase their purchasing power. Then the economy might again start doing good.

People already pay taxes to the government. And the way to help the US is not by putting a dent in one of it's own industries but rerouting the money. I'm not sure this would be a good solution at all or help in the least bit. It's just my own personal opinion though.
