Jesus died carrying humanity’s original sin.
Recently, President Trump seemed to cosplay as Jesus. In that case, could he also die carrying America’s economic original sin and thereby cancel the U.S. national debt?
- acnomics 6mo agoIt’s not as good as it might sound. By “canceling” US debt, it would mean that the government failed to pay back those who lent it money, of whom the majority are US nationals themselves.

- JumpCrisscross 6mo ago> majority are US nationals themselves Including banks and pension funds, all of which would go broke overnight if the U.S. actually defaulted.
- mandeepj 6mo agoWell, he’s single handedly responsible for 1/3 of the debt! And, will add more before his term ends either by force, naturally, or duration completion. He don’t know how to cancel debt, but would happily add more to it and laughingly take home that cash.

- testing22321 6mo agoThe dude started a war that has already cost $25 billion so far without any approval from congress. It’s mighty clear he can do whatever he wants, and spend huge sums of money doing it.

- solid_fuel 6mo agoJesus (who is also God), died so that God (who is also Jesus), wouldn't be mad at us - who He created - for sinning (breaking the rules that God (who is also Jesus) made). He had to do this because although He is omnipotent and omniscient, He was unable to forgive us without literally pinning our sins on His Son Jesus (who is also God) and then letting us kill him for it. It makes perfect sense and has no contradictions when someone teaches it to you every Sunday during your childhood.
