The increasing debt represents a wealth transfer to asset holders. If you can exchange your dollars for things like houses, before those dollars are devalued, then you win. This is regressive.
This is not an argument for fewer social programs. It is an argument for more taxes.

We need to cut spending to match taxes, then start deciding what’s important and what people want to pay for with increased taxes Giving people everything for “free” to win the next election is very bad policy for the country
