Debt bubble:

comstockfunds.com

A previous bubble, after the stock market crash, which was built up quickly, collapsed just as quickly.

Our present bubble has been building for 20 yrs., and shows no sign of slowing down.

The above graph is a couple of years old, and probably underestimates what has happened in the exploding credit market since. Note, this is "total credit", not national debt.

For US national debt, see:

The facts and evidence is out there for all to see. Great graphs, and we are exactly where we should be thanks to the stewardship of our leaders. Debt is good and more debt is better. This I know for sure, because if it were otherwise, "they" would tell us, right?
