I have been following Hastings Henderson's blog regarding the donations he has been making to you for the reduction of the principal of the National debt.
His idea to ask one of the organizations such as the United Way to allow direct donation from their paychecks to the National Debt is a great idea. That would be an amazing opportunity to allow us, as Americans, to participate in our economic recovery. Let's face it, he's right-the debt is a clear and present danger to the United States. If 150 million people donated $1.00 a week (or more) think of the impact. What's the hold up?
To this end, here is $52.00. That's a dollar a week that I would otherwise donate to the United Way, Red Cross or the like to help reduce the principal of the National Debt. Please make sure that this gets to the US Treasury in a timely manner. Would you please let me know when you forward this to the treasury?
Also, I was curious. Have you decided to accept Mr. Henderson's challenge and donate 1% of your salary to the cause? Rep. Webster did so and also asked his staff to do the same. That would be a remarkable display public leadership and of sacrifice.
Regards and thank you for your kind attention,
Aisling Maes
