That’s up $3.4 trillion since the pandemic — almost $30,000 per household. On top of $10 trillion in new federal debt — almost $80,000 per household. In all the average American household is now carrying over $400,000 in debt. They make one-sixth that. Debt is clearly unsustainable at this point. And it’s the only thing holding up the economy.

Under GOP administrations since 1980, spending has risen at an average annual rate of 6.35%....revenues at an annual rate of 4.17%.

Does that look sustainable to you?

Credit cards alone are well over a trillion... and that's unsecured debt.

I am glad to say that we owe $0 to anybody. I haven't had as much as a car payment in probably 20 years.

The only bills we have are utilities and property taxes.

Now do the House of Representatives.  You know, where spending originates.

Congratulations on that milestone and even more epic it happened 20 years ago!

It's our turn this year. Carrying some interest free debt for furniture and blinds for the new house which will be gone this year.

No matter how you slice it, the struggle is real for the majority of Americans.
