The US debt is about 36 trillion dollars. The highest in the world.😱 The US should tax the medium rich, the rich and the mega rich to pay down the debt instead of cutting the help to the poor. It is the right thing to do. The rich became rich because of the labour of the poor.

The debt is always higher under republicans, always! Trump himself said that "The Democrats seems to always have a better economy than republicans" That is factual.

Yes, I remember he said that . For some reason the republicans like to see the very rich get richer , this one they are asking for 4 trillion dollars in tax cuts. That means they take 83 percent of the money and the poor working guy gets 17%. We are so stupid that is why they do it to us

You're 💯 percent correct! All this is to line the pockets of the very wealth 1% so they can buy another 8th vacation home.😡 Elon $38 mil NASA contract $300 mill Gov contract to build armor tesla's. Hes taking over the 2 billion 2 year Verizon contract for the FAA IT system & installing Starlink.

Centre right and right wing governments don't do that. It's the same here in the UK.

Except that debt is meaningless. Government debt is a voluntary security service for the financial sector. You could print all the money, pay it back, without substantial inflationary effects. But this way, banks/billionaires receive free non-productive income. But social security is the bogeyman.

The UK should call in this 760 billion debt and fix its problems. Bollocks to the USA.
