Are you worried about the national debt?

Are the younger voters in your life concerned?

The national debt of the United States is approximately $36 trillion dollars. The interest alone on that debt is almost $2 billion a day—a figure that is expected to double over the next decade.

We all ought to be concerned.

But it’s not going to get easier because the electorate just does not care about the national debt. 

If the debt alarms you, figure out a way to express the risk it poses to the future generations the way that climate alarmists have persuaded Millennials, Generation Z and Generation Alpha that the future is dark because the planet is going to cook. Young voters worry about getting jobs and buying first houses or about the climate. Don’t expect them, much less the beneficiaries of entitlements, to demand fiscal responsibility unless and until Congress at least makes a show of shaving off the obvious fat.
