I have been concerned about the debt for as long as I can remember. At 56, in my lifetime, all I can recall is that it has increased. Yes, there was that short theoretical time at the end of Bill's second term when they said the budget was balanced, but I don't recall that ever materializing. No matter how large the number or how it compares to GDP, I just don't see how practically everyone on this board understands that one has to live within their means (or below) and our government never has to live within it's means? Let alone live debt free? There's a train wreck waiting to happen. Just a matter of when and what it will look like. My bet is printing money and significant inflation.
Well done Jerry
I'm 55 & feel the same way.
