History of debts in the US?
Ever since the beginning, debt has been a part of a country's operations.
The US authorities were first found in debt in 1790, Following the Revolutionary war. Ever since, that has been fueled over the centuries by more war and by economic recession.
The countrywide debt level of any nation is a measure of how much the government has its creditors.
The ratio of debt to Gross Domestic Product is more important than the dollar amount of debt.
As of October 1 2021, the US national debt is $ 28.8 trillion and Rising.
In recent years the US government has preferred to suspend debt ceilings for a fixed time instead of raising the ceiling amount. when the suspension period lapses the government increases the debt ceiling to the amount during the suspension period. If the US Congress does not raise a ceiling after the suspension period, it will lead to a fiscal crisis. Debt ceiling has been suspended in 2013, 2014 ,2015 ,2017 and 2019 and now once more attempted in 2021 and raised after the lapse of the suspension period.

"Republican votes for raising the debt limit will not be provided by us"
"Bipartisanship is not a light switch that democrats get to flip on when they need to borrow money and switch off when they need to spend money."
