The Treasury began accepting Venmo payments a few months ago. Last year, the government received $2.7 million in gifts to pay down the debt.

    My math came out a little different: $36,000,000,000,000 ÷ 340,000,000 = $105,882 per person.

    Still agree with you, though. This is above the median household income, and the people who extract more wealth from this country should also share a greater burden of its debt.
