We have heard Republicans warning of the "debt bomb" we have building up, threatening us all here in America, with unfunded pensions, spiraling national debt, etc. And we also know that President Obama wants to take military action against Syria for its alleged use of chemical weapons. And we also don't want to cause mass casualties, or necessarily throw off the balance of power in the stalemate civil war. And so I recommend deploying the debt bomb we're threatened with on Syria.
No, hear me out. If we started using debt bombs instead of explosive or incendiary ordnance, we could drastically impact and punish whatever regime we're mad at without killing anyone, and our enemies would be so far in debt that they wouldn't be able to buy more weapons or even pay their own soldiers anymore; plus, every time we drop a debt bomb on another country, they assume our debt, and we don't owe or have to pay it anymore. So come on, military industrial complex: develop the debt bomb for military applications! And if it works, you can pay yourselves any amount you like, because we're just going to drop the bill on someone else anyway...
