You could raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans instead of cutting their taxes while celebrating the signing of a new bill that adds several trillions to our already enormous $36 trillion debt. Alternatively, you can set up a small Venmo account that allows average citizens to contribute money to reduce the national debt, much like a GoFundMe.

The United States is a deeply unserious nation. As such, under President Donald Trump, Pay.gov now has a small section that allows you to contribute to paying off the national debt, much like a scrappy band of kids holding a bake sale to save the rec center.

“Ryan adapts well to most things. He loved it since day one.”

Ryan, who lives with Down Syndrome, has worked in packaging at South Australian disability employment provider Bedford ever since.

The 39-year-old said he has met his best friend and girlfriend at Bedford and enjoyed going every day.
