Really not all that much of a stretch. People carry insurance for the remote chance that something will happen.

For most of the last 100 years or so the national debt has been almost nothing. The debt incurred in the last 6 years is greater than all of the debt incurred from 1900 to 2000.

You seem to think this trend can continue without drastic correction. I’d say you are one of the very few around here that hold that position.
