No choice but to keep increasing the GDP 😭
We may eventually just pick up the trillion dollar bills on the sidewalk.

Well, it’s gonna go up a lot more before we really face major consequences or a political push to fix it. Both presidential candidates are running on platforms that would explode the deficit.

It ends with the US taking on more and more debt and then having a debt crisis and defaulting due to debt interest servicing payments all by themselves becoming too unmanageable. And then a global economic crash. And then we get a few decades of fiscal responsibility with a far leaner government that does far less for people, and then of course populism comes back and ruins it again because people are stupid

It’s bad, but you should probably adjust it for interest rates to measure the real impact.
