Trump - Biden - Trump has been a deadly combination for our debt.
Edit:
Trump started in 2017 with $19.947 trillion in debt.

Just saw that. Our trillion dollar defense budget doesn't provide enough missiles and our Navy is sputtering out. Feels like the last gasps of a dying empire.

If we confiscate all annual income from every billionaire and millionaire we could knock that down almost 5%. Really, to create the Socialist utopia we deserve, we will have to seize all their private property too. Then we can pay off that debt and eat the rich- win-win, right?

The plan is to make money worthless. Then after the dust settles crank up the world again

Democrats don't care.
We need reparations, food stamps for everyone, and "free" health care for everyone.
Can't let something like printing money stop you from having utopia.

This is gonna be a painful reset. This is why I have a decommissioned missile silo.

The depth of depression this economy would undergo from paying off the debt would be almost as bad as the debt bubble bursting

I think maybe the better thing is to stop getting conned by defense contractors.

Maybe we do need a world war to settle things…

How much of that is interest on debt that we owe ourselves?

Meh, almost all of it is driven by long existing entitlement spending. That and Covid. Discretionary spending like defense is nothing in the scheme of things. Parasites are killing the country.

The national debt is a scam.
The money is printed out of nothing, gets its value from the people and yet somehow those same people have to pay back, with interest money that is never created which makes it impossible anyway, that which was stolen from them.
All of which is used to fund the deep state and everything that is used against you.

$100,000 was added to our national debt in the time it took you to read this sentence.

There is always a reckoning.

Yay fiscally conservative president and GOP!
I'm honestly amazed they've cooked the booked effectively enough to keep the house of cards standing this long. Gonna be hell when it finally comes tumbling down.
