The word you are looking for Mr. CFO is “infantile.” Infant is a noun, not an adjective.
“The dictionary business is an infant industry.”
Tell me where the adjective is in the above sentence Mr. Riverside

Isn't having arse loads of debt the American way?

Yeah, Clinton was the last Prez to have a balanced budget, but Bush blew that up quickly. They never looked back after that.

I forgot it was the executive branch that spends money. Silly me
They have been sequestering funds and otherwise subverting congress's power of the purse.

The consistent thing in these decades of incredible waste and spending is career legislators. Placing the blame at the feet of any one executive is just partisans doing partisan things. Congress is the fricking problem

That imbalance is expected to worsen in the years ahead, with the US firmly on track to break the all-time record of a 106% debt-to-GDP ratio set in 1946 after World War II.
So we've come back from this before at least?
Yes, but these were the tax brackets in 1946 - 1950 (based on 1950 dollars to 2026 dollars)
0 - $26k - 20%
$26k - $52k - 22%
$52k - $78k - 26%
$78k - $104k - 30%
$104k - $130k - 34%
$130k - $156k - 38%
$156k - $182k - 43%
$182k - $208k - 47%
$208k - $234k - 50%
$234k - $260k - 53%
$260k - $286k - 56%
$286k - $338k - 59%
$338k - $416k - 62%
$416k - $494k - 65%
$494k - $572k - 69%
$572k - $650k - 72%
$650k - $780k - 75%
$780k - $910k - 78%
$910k - $1.04M - 81%
$1.04M - $1.17M - 84%
$1.17M - $1.3M - 87%
$1.3M - $1.95M - 89%
$1.95M - $2.6M - 90%
$2.6M+ - 91%
$100k in 2026 dollars paid in 1950 would have paid roughly $26-$28k vs $17-$20k today.

And this
In 1946, Total tax revenue was roughly $78.6B (from what I can find) which is roughly $1.3T in 2025 dollars. This translates to roughly $9,100 per person
In 2025, total tax revenue was roughly $5.3T. This translates to roughly $15,500 per person

You really need to get your TDS under control. You conveniently ommitted the trlllions of dollars wasted by the demoncrats over the past 60 years.

A main driver of the surging debt, the CBO noted, is increased spending on programs like Social Security and Medicare as the population ages, not to mention interest payments on the debt itself.
Incorrect
The main driver of surging debt is Dim politicians like Nancy Pelosi and their never ending fraud.
