The Outstanding Public Debt as of 06 Nov 2007 at 06:31:15 PM GMT is:
$ 9,084,348,936,922.94
The estimated population of the United States is 303,460,363 so each citizen's share of this debt is $29,935.87. The National Debt has continued to increase an average of $1.43 billion per day since September 29, 2006! Concerned? Then tell Congress and the White House!
