Does Government Debt Matter Anymore? | Perspectives On Policy
Proponents of government spending argue that the government can borrow as much as it wants, so long as the interest rate is less than the rate of economic growth. However, government deficits are far too high for this to be the case. Continuing to run large deficits will either lead to higher inflation or sharp cuts to entitlement programs. Solving the US fiscal problem will require strong pro-growth policies, a slowdown in government spending, and reforms to our chaotic tax system and entitlement programs.
