The 100-Year Path to a Debt-Free America: A Vision of Fiscal Renewal

 The United States faces a national debt surpassing $34 trillion—a figure so large, it almost feels abstract. Over the decades, both parties have contributed to its growth, and despite countless debates, the debt continues to rise. But what if we shifted our perspective?

Instead of scrambling to fix it in a decade or two, what if we committed to a 100-year plan—a long-term, disciplined strategy to gradually eliminate the debt while growing stronger as a nation?

This is not a call for panic or austerity. It's a call for vision, stability, and responsibility—a generational promise that the future will not be burdened by the past.

Can Asteroid Mining Pay Off the U.S. National Debt?

 Introduction

As the United States grapples with a national debt exceeding $34 trillion, policymakers and futurists alike have begun entertaining ambitious ideas for transformative economic solutions. Among the most tantalizing is the concept of asteroid mining.

Echoes Through Time: The Striking Parallels Between the Punic Wars and the World Wars

   “History never repeats itself, but it does often rhyme.”

— Mark Twain 

When people think of historical parallels, few would naturally draw a line from the ancient battlefields of Carthage and Rome to the mechanized trenches and blitzkriegs of the 20th century. And yet, history doesn’t just repeat—it rhymes. In the case of the Punic Wars (264–146 BCE) and the World Wars (1914–1945 CE), the rhymes are profound and revealing.

    Separated by more than two thousand years, these two eras of conflict show an uncanny symmetry: the narrative of military resilience betrayed by political surrender, the imposition of harsh peace treaties, the rise of charismatic leaders bent on revenge, and the ultimate defeat of once-great powers. By unpacking these echoes, we gain not only a deeper understanding of the past, but a chilling reminder of how easily the cycle of war and resentment can repeat.
