Random factoid:

For most businesses and--especially--governments, #debt isn't paid off, it is rolled forward.

Paying off debt is counterproductive and actually injurious to a credit-based, Keynesian economic system.

It is not the goal, and it never has been... despite the rhetoric.

As an aside, things will function very differently once #Bitcoin inevitably becomes the global reserve asset and global reserve currency over the coming decades.
