Totally flawed economics.

40 years of failure. I note you haven’t addressed any of my points simply misinterpreted them for the purpose of deflection. So I will repeat my point:

Future generations have no such windfall. Only the debt from previous generations extravagance and poor decision making.

If it’s about balancing the books then when should we pay the 2 trillion back? How do we fund it so we can stop squandering billions on interest payments?
