So in other words the newly formed government was in debt 20 million dollars. Ben Franklin shoved a lightning rod up our asses and did a rain dance. We will never be out of debt.

    Plenipotentiary: A person, especially a diplomat, invested with the full power of independent action on behalf of their government, typically in a foreign country.
