our Founding Fathers only put permission for the government to borrow money, for EMERGENCIES, like WARS.
...never for perpetual debt, to be passed on to posterity!

“... but by vigorous exertions in time of peace to discharge the debts which unavoidable wars have occasioned, ...” - George Washington

“It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes.” - Thomas Jefferson
