Im just saying, we are currently each paying off the debt in the form of inflation and day care and medical bills because our "goverment" education and infrastructure is dogshit, because we cut it to make up for the trillions in spending we send to corrupt foreign governments and through wars.

You have owned 10 iphones in 10 years though. So I guess it's all worth it.
I'm using a three or four year old Android device, but at least you aren't still accusing Biden of forcing Putin to invade Ukraine or something retarded like that.

Every dollar invested in primary and preventative healthcare returns ten.

Healthcare isn’t underinvested due to lack of funds or economic outcomes - it is ideological.

Just remember next time you think we dont have to pay off our debt, 90% of your income is erased because of it.

You spend 90% of your income on paying for the effects of that debt.

Maybe more, everyone in the west's entire life is basically a hamsterwheel by now.

So we wont get rid of the debt, but you're paying for it out of pocket every day.

Debt is fine if it's useful and not too onerous. Like I said it's 6-12% of government revenue, which is a tiny fraction of US GDP.

i don't "think" we don't have to pay off the debt, we literally don't we can even print a 32 trillion dollar bill and pay it all off right now if we wanted to.

imagine thinking this shit has "rules"

100% of the reason we cut every dollar we spend is because of the debt

healthcare in the USA today is theft

infrastructure is a train derailment a week or bridge collapse a month

public education is a purge simulator

the border is a crematorium

retirement is a myth

medicade on the chopping block

all of this is because of the debts high score, none of it is because of anything else.

We spend money on foreign shit, we cut shit at home to pay for it, our debt goes up, americans think we're not paying for it.

I think that's the Byrd rule but debt interest and payments are not a big problem for the budget right now. It would be nice if they were better I suppose but this is no calamity.

e: I'm wrong it's PAYGO

Sure you're right Im not like anti capitalism, just not the crazy shit. If we had 75% less national debt, we'd all have cancer free bodies becuase there was an MRI in every public highschool doctorate program classroom.
