By no means particularly well versed in economics, I do understand that over the long term debt is not what it was when incurred. Even with my mortgage lender front-loading the debt portion of the loan, the fixed monthly payments became less of a burden as the economy expanded, inflation was factored in and my wages followed. The home is now fully owned and I get it. I can’t see help but wonder, however, if the simple minded in the make America great crowd do. While I have little argument with government trimming waste and having budgets balance, I also know that “lay away plans,” and fear of planning for the future with sensible investment are “sucker bets!”
