The Chinese are Coming! The Chinese are Coming! (and they want their interest payments!)

Dear Readers (and Watchers),

Here's a scary video about the national debt you should watch and propogate:







And here are some scriptures that go along with the video:

Deuternonomy 15:6

For the Lord thy God blesseth thee [the ancient House of Israel], as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.

Doctrine and Covenants 19:35

(This is a revelation from God to Martin Harris, through the Prophet, Joseph Smith)

Pay the debt thou hast contracted with the printer. Release thyself from bondage.

I think it's pretty clear that God is saying in his Holy Word that his disciples should not be enslaved by debt, either to foreign nations or to individuals. God wants us to get out of debt. There are two fronts of this battle- the national front and the personal front.

On the national front, all you can do to fight debt is call or write your elected representatives and vote for candidates who have a track record of actually reducing spending.

On the personal front, I reccomend following the advice of Dave Ramsey or the Provident Living website.

Sincerely,
Telemoonfa
