Are you worried that our debt to GDP is over 100%?

No I'm a Democrat and there's no such thing as consequences

Having a debt at 100% of GDP is not a big deal. Most families have a home mortgage that is more than their annual income as well. The reason is the same, that debt is not paid in one year. The federal debt is financed with 30 year maturity Treasury Bonds. The United States is not a third world country that has to take out loans, it is more like a well run corporation that issues bonds for the savvy investor to finance the business.

Social Security and Medicare are indeed "entitlements", because the benefits are paid for by the participants themselves, the government is just an administrator of the plan. In this sense, you bank account balance is an "entitlement" too, because you expect to get that money back some day, that is why it is shown as a liability on the bank's books. Not one penny comes out of the federal congressional budget, it is entirely off-budget. It does not contribute to the national debt, to the contrary SS alone has a $2.6 T surplus, which mean SS holds more than twice as many bonds as China. In fact most of the debt is held by government itself, including state and federal pension plans. Another large share is private pension funds and individual citizen savings. The reason other governments buy them is as a hedge against their own economy going south.

funny you should mention ACA costs, because Paul Ryan uses savings to government from the ACA implementation to help reduce the deficit in his Republican budget plan. That is why he is silently not calling for ACA repeal, he knows it is good for America.

You have to get past the idea that some government programs are big. That does not make them bad or more costly than the alternatives. Just as large corporations do better than small mom and pop companies even with a little bureaucracy and CEO bonuses, big government does some things better than individuals can fending for themselves. sorry Ayn Rand was wrong.

Don't worry, Obama is a historic black president so debt doesn't matter. Or so liberals tell us.

Well we are now in dangerous territory and we have no idea when our creditors will stop buying our debt

Well.. Obama you better fix everything NOW!
