The fact that the national debt continues to rise is astonishing. I never heard of the PAYGO rule before watching this documentary, and I think it was a good rule and it should have continued to be followed. The Bush and the Obama administrations shouldn't be able to pass expensive plans when they have no way to pay for it and it would only increase the debt instead of lowering it.
but can you grow your way out of the debt? Isn't that what happened during the Clinton era?
