    United States Public Debt and Free Government Program

    The Federal Budget Deficit: The U.S. federal government has been living beyond its means, spending more on public goods and services than it collects in tax revenues-the difference being the budget deficit. Although fiscal discipline coupled with a strong economy brought a return to surpluses in the late 1990s, since 2001 the fiscal outlook has deteriorated dramatically, and the federal debt-the cumulative sum of annual deficits since the start of our government-has increased by trillions of dollars. While the recent budget deficits are the result of a combination of extravagant tax cuts, a costly war, lack of effective budget controls, and a relatively weaker economy, the much larger budget deficits projected in the decades ahead are largely explained by a growth in entitlement spending that will outpace…

    How the National Debt Crisis Affects My Life Essay Example

    Today the debate over the national debt crisis has many U.S. citizens concern about their financial future. With our national debt ceiling set at 14.3 trillion dollars, and with debt rapidly accruing, the decision to raise the debt ceiling must be made soon. Although both the Democratic and Republican parties have their own opinions on how to fix the issue, a decision must be made before August 2, 2011. Without a solution, the Treasury would not have the authority to borrow any more money. This means that the nation will be unable to make the necessary payments on debt, and also will result in defaulting on prior obligations. While both Democrats and Republicans debate on what’s best, my worries of financial security and my future goals seem to be in jeopardy.…

    The Pros And Cons Of Debt

    When you hear debt your mind automatically think it’s a bad thing, Which is not always correct. Now everyone know America is in debt but do you really know who much our country is in debt. “On January 29, 2016, the U.S. debt surpassed $19 trillion. That meant the debt-to-GDP ratio is 106%, since 2015 GDP is $17.9 trillion. However, the public debt was a more moderate $13.7 trillion. That made the public debt-to-GDP ratio a safe 76%. According to the World Bank, the tipping point is 77%.” (useconomy). Debt is not a completely bad thing but it does have its downfalls. No one wants to be in debt to someone. A little debt is okay but 19 trillion dollars is a little much.…

My paper dedicates to examine the federal budget balance and government policies over last ten years and analyzes the reasons for this dramatic change from substantial surpluses to massive deficits. Furthermore, I will also shed a light on the dilemma facing Obama administration to cut the deficits.…

    4. Rise in Debt to GDP ratios. The most useful guide to levels of manageable DEBT is the DEBT to GDP ratio. Therefore, a fall in GDP and rise in debt means this will rise rapidly. For example, between, 2007 and 2011, UK public SECTOR debt almost doubled from 36% of GDP to 61% of GDP (UK Debt – and that excludes financial sector bailout).

    The Economy Is in Trouble

    The second major problem I see is that lack of monitoring what is really the underlying cause that is keeping us in debt. You might think I’m delusional because of course there are many people that watch how the country’s money is spent but I feel like it is not being watched as closely as it should be because of the magnitude of money that is being spent everyday. I think if our country’s spending was being watched correctly we would be able to come up with a plan the country could follow that would get us out of debt and would help us figure out how to manage our money correctly so no other economically crisis would occur. This problem seems to be a problem that slowly has become a huge problem because many years ago when the…
