>> As to the debt, notice that we never paid off the massive debt of WWII? What happened to it?

We were, for the most part, a good credit risk after WWII; we had no competition in the world, our debt was in control, and we didn't have 10s of trillions of dollars in commitments to our older generation that we couldn't pay.

The fruits of New Deal are rotting now.

There is no free lunch.
