Someone has to get less, propose 1 spending decrease. –Why did you select this expenditure? –How would this spending decrease impact people? What would be the impact of your proposal?

National Debt Will the national debt cause the U.S. government to go bankrupt? Q: How does the government pay for it’s budget deficit? –A: It borrows money (issues bonds, treasury bills) –“Crowding out” means it costs average U.S. citizen & businesses more to take out a loan.
