National debt at $545,668 per household

Quote from not4kids:

The number does not add up. We know that the population of America is 300 million. Therefore, the national debt per person is slightly less than $40K. What is the typical size of an American household? Four persons per household is my guess. Therefore, the national debt per household is around $150K, not $500K. Am I wrong here?

But how many households are net tax payers? I think 45% don't pay any income tax, IIRC

According to the above it's currently $37,008.33 per citizen.

Edit: In just a few minutes it's increased another nickel per citizen.

Everyday in class or on tv our kids learn that dems rule and repubs suck ass.

Such a "small gray matter" comment deserves to be put on ignore..
