National debt numbers are totally meaningless !!!!!!The number appears scary today because interest rates are high. And I could collect all the money in a heartbeat just by making the rich class like Musk and etc pay their fair share. In the 1960 part of the reason there was a solid middle class was that the upper classes paid more taxes. They slowly change it to suit themselves and we were like a frog in hot water, we did not complain because it happened slowly.
