But national debt isn't really "debt" - certainly not in the way you'd normally understand it. Better to think of it as so many very secure accounts with the national bank. If a bank has lots of customers, is that really a problem?

But this doesn't say national debt. It says debt. So I am assuming it is adding up all individual debt into one big pile. It is trying to say we are all idiots for getting in so much more debt than before, but this is taken way out of context. In manageable amounts debt is good.

HAHAHAHA, what context? that's my whole point you've just expounded it. I agree folks get themselves in trouble with debt. On a global scale I am clueless and frankly I don't care about any of it.

I think we are saying the same thing. I mean as long as you don't go crazy, some debt (mortgage, 1 car loan, etc) is good. By context I meant that. The meme is trying to imply all debt is bad. But debt helps people move up SES ladder if kept under control

Agreed. Of course, those are the ones I am most likely to respond to because they annoy me so much. Probably the point. Engagement trolling.
