About 20 years too late probably.
40 years ago we were still paying off the Vietnam and Korean wars, but the national debt was a manageable $900 billion. 20 years ago (before 9/11) the debt was large -$5 trillion-but still manageable with the right game plan in place.
Fast forward to 2021, our overseas wars have come home. ...refugees pouring in, millions are being layed off at a time when there's a driver shortage....and we're seeing hyperinflation start to creep in....but by the time gasoline hits $10 a gallon, that Walmart you just shopped at may be converted into a FEMA camp.
