13. My silly solution to unmanageable federal debt

(thinking out-of-the-box)

When we can't afford to pay service on the debt, we can start selling states, especially to countries that hold a lot of US debt.

My suggestions:

Sell Alaska to China. They need land and they have icebreakers.
Sell Washington State to Korea. I happen to know they like Washington State; the kids who play vicious ping-pong at our community center are all Korean kids.
Sell Oregon and Hawaii to Japan. Let me know soon so we can move to Oregon or Hawaii before this happens.

I think this could raise 5-10 Trillion easy (paid over time to service the debt), and we haven't even started talking about Texas and Florida.

or at least, fantasy.
