You would need a weapon of mass destruction to wipe-out all three.

You cannot really EVER "stop the debt clock going up", and if you could, it would serve no purpose.
Unless human beings stop breeding, the cost of running the government (even if we had frozen EVERYTHING at 1959 levels) would grow each year with the population...so focus on the debt in dollars is essentially meaningless.
If we look at debt relative to GDP instead, that makes a whole lot more sense, and soon we will either have to reduce spending growth rates or increase GDP output, the latter option being far easier by stimulating business growth.
Source(s): Debt grew mostly under Reagan & Bush, and was "best" under Carter...do the "Tea Party" folks want to return to more "Carter-like" policies? Or are they just innumerate and confused? http://zfacts.com/p/318.html - 1 decade ago
Revolt and start over.
Honestly, that's the only way.
"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty.... And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure." - Thomas Jefferson

Remove all corporate taxes so every business in the world will rush to make their headquarters in the US and will have lots of capital to hire more workers. Corp taxes are just a double tax on citizens anyway as taxes are recouped by a higher product price.

Hmm, I'd ask some libertarians about this,
