I think the debt is definitely an overlooked issue but a) I couldn’t not make this joke b) I think conservatives should re-examine fiscal policy sacred cows and c) we’re in a unique situation.
The Venn diagram of people who care about the deficit and people who have said the word “scoundrel” out loud is a full circle.
The debt and deficit is 100% an issue of intergenerational justice, though. Middle aged folks are mortgaging the future of young people (like me) by failing to consider the long-term damage.
