Interest on debt is about to sink us

Interest on national debt on pace to eclipse entitlements, defense spending amid funding battles

Criticism of sustained deficit spending prompted house Republicans earlier this year to pressure the White House to make budgetary concessions in the Fiscal Responsibility Act that aimed to address the nation's runaway spending. The debt service may soon exceed that of major allocations.

The question I have...is it on purpose. The left HATES America. I believe it is.

Not a problem, the DEMS and RINOS will just raise the debt ceiling and borrow more to make these payments.

Its what should have scared the hell out of all of us from the Trump years. The economy is blowing and going about as strong as it can and we STILL couldn't pay our bills. As good as our economy was our countries balance sheet got worse, not better. If we can't pay our bills when the economy is that good, when will we ever be able to do it again?

What scares the hell out of me is people who put what's best for their politics ahead of what's best for their country. Saying this is Trump's fault is not only lying, it's a deflection attempt to not have to deal with the CURRENT problem.

America First. Not your politics.

it is actually pretty simple

you have to spend less than you bring in
we cannot continue to use baseline budgeting(each line item has a built in yearly increase)
we cannot continue to give billions to other countries
we cannot continue to be the World's police force
we cannot allow millions upon millions to cross our borders unimpeded with their hands out
we need to scrap the IRS and go to a VAT- that way everyone who buys something in the US contributes
