So, this is pretty cool. Not sure what actual action will come from it, but maybe... MAYBE direct democracy is taking a baby step in efforts like this!

Prohibit Economic Assistance to Countries Who Hold More Than $50 Billion in U.S. Debt
Saves: $180+ million over ten years
Of America’s $13 trillion national debt, approximately $3.9 trillion is held by foreign countries. Over the past year, foreign holding of U.S. debt has increased by almost $700 billion. Ironically, we actually provide economic assistance in the form of foreign aid to some of our largest creditors. For example, President Obama has request at least $18 million in economic assistance for countries, including China, that hold in excess of $50 billion in U.S. government debt. In essence, Congress is borrowing money from foreign countries and then giving it right back to them for free. This proposal would prohibit any economic foreign aid to a country that holds $50 billion or more in U.S. debt.

Ho-Leee SHIT!!!

I'm not guessing their internet security is really setup to handle a human powered ddos.
