US National Debt: How Deficit Spending Affects Our Future | Mark Higgins

The US National Debt now sits at around $35 Trillion. Higher debt means higher interest payments.

Isn’t it important for our government to only spend what they have coming in just like the rest of us?

To help us learn more about the state of our national debt and what continued deficit spending means for our future, I’ve invited Author Mark Higgins to the show today.
