We’re excited to invite you to the next No Labels Talks on Thursday, September 26 at 1:45 PM ET via Zoom, featuring Bill Galston—political scholar, columnist, and a leading voice on America’s growing national debt problem. His recent Wall Street Journal editorial, "A U.S. National Debt Crisis Is Coming," makes a compelling case for why America will have to reckon with this problem sooner than many think.
As Galston writes, both parties “now behave as though budget deficits don’t matter. Red and blue politicians alike seem to think we can increase spending, cut taxes indefinitely, and borrow whatever we need to close the gap—all without paying a price. But if we persist in this, we’re asking for trouble."
With the national debt now over $35 trillion, and interest payments alone projected to hit $1.7 trillion by 2034, we can’t afford to look the other way. Bill will discuss the dangerous trajectory we’re on, and what we can do to restore fiscal responsibility to Washington before it’s too late.
