Mr. President,
As a American, I am proud of my Country and it's people and what we aspire to be. I believe, if U. S. Citizens were asked to help their Country pay off it's National Debt, we would contribute or donate money. Particularly if we were given an incentive(s).
Such as:
Reassurance this money won't be abused or become a means for Government to spend more.
Perhaps a Plaque with Contributors Names honoring them Nationwide, at the U. S. Treasury.
A group has Lunch with the you/ 1st Lady/ or other celebrity... .
The more someone contributes, a tax break is given.
Just a few ideas?
If anyone pursues this, I would like to be the 1st to contribute $1000., I commit to this.
