The National Debt: Who Bears Its Burden?

Description: The United States has been free of national debt for only two years, 1834 and 1835. We began our existence as a country in 1790 with a debt of $75 million. It rose to $3.8 trillion in 1997. It rose to a high of 108.6% of gross domestic product (GDP) at the end of World War II; declined to a post-World War II low of 23.8% of GDP in 1974; and, then, rose to another high of 49.5% of GDP in 1993. The major cause of debt accumulation has been war. The United States has financed the extraordinary expenditures associated with war by borrowing rather than by raising taxes or printing money. This pattern was broken by the large budget deficits of the The 1980s and 1990s, which caused the national debt to rise substantially as a fraction of GDP during peacetime.
