What have we had in those five years?
Higher deficits, constantly growing debt with higher interest rates. No action to protect Social Security or Medicare, but repeated calls for more spending are no problem.
Are Americans willing to pay higher taxes to responsibly fund what they want from government?



Plus Covid 19. A Black Swan if there ever was one. Game changer.

The frog in the cooking pan has already been cooked to a crisp. Paying the interest on the exponentially increasing national debt is exponentially increasing. More money is now being paid on servicing the debt than for our national defense. And paying the debt interest comes first in priority. Think about that!

I do believe in “what can’t go on, won’t go on”, so just be patient and the reckoning will occur. The adjustments will be made over several future administrations gradually or the change will be forced on us more quickly. I’m referring to the limits of what we can carry in the national debt.
