No the debt won't stay static while the economy grows, but if you get a lot of new debt that is only going to come from new spending. Its currently growing at a slower rate than the economy. The debt by itself is quite sustainable, esp. since a big part of government debt is debt to itself.

The big problem isn't the debt, the big problem is all the future promised spending.
