First, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and our policy of foreign intervention has greatly contributed to the amount of money we owe; cutting taxes at a time of war and the Great Recession exacerbated a long term and growing issue.
The debt will come down, once we elect a fiscally responsible Congress. Note, fiscal conservatism and austerity are not solutions, they are political talking points. Raising taxes and cutting unnecessary spending is the solution!
Borrowing and the Federal Debt
Whining about the national debt is one more wedge issue, a talking point by the Republican Party (and callow posters who parrot the current meme) who contributed greatly to the problem and now want to point fingers at President Obama. That's one more BIG LIE by the Party of Grover Limbaugh.
