Page 8 June 29, 2017 Patriotic Investors from front page 1835. Congress that year paid off the debt, according to an article on the Pulitzer Prizewinning reporting site Politifact, but not before racking up more unpaid bills from the War of 1812, also fought against the British. To reduce the national debt and pay back private and foreign investors, the U.S. Congress after 1812 required debt reductions of at least $10 million per year, according to Politifact. The financing plan worked, and the national debt that had ballooned to $58 million ($1.4 billion in today’s dollars) by 1835 was paid off that year. Still, an expert in federal spending told Politifact that paying off federal debt entirely isn’t always a sound fiscal policy. Neil Buchanan with the George Washington University Law School said that immediately after Jackson’s presidency ended, “the country did eventually have the good sense to borrow again to finance the country’s enormous economic expansion” into the 20th century. Even today, the U.S. government’s debt is tied to military campaigns and wars, according to federal spending data. Conflicts, starting with the eight-year war for independence, are associated with taxation and economic inflation, according to published sources. A history of America’s war debt published at Debt.org, a consumer-help organization for consumers with debt, shows that World War II put the U.S. government further in debt and warranted tax increases. Congress paid for the Korean War again by raising individual and corporate taxes. “In the United States, conflicts tend to lead to the rise of both debt and taxes as the government struggles to fund its armed forces,” says the article “War Debt: America’s Cost of Going to War.” Recent conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan boosted the national debt without raising taxes, it noted. As America liberated itself from King George and fended off a series of military challenges from the British, the national debt grew with the military victories. When the Revolutionary War ended, the newly created Department of Finance reported the national debt at $43 million. The government debt skyrocketed after the Civil War to $2.6 billion, and today stands at $19.95 trillion, according to the US Debt Clock. New York investor and developer Seymour Durst created the clock on February 2, 1989. Durst said at the time, “If it bothers people, then it’s working.” The national debt on the clock’s opening day was $2.7 trillion. Durst’s debt counter is located in New York City, and though it has only been around for less than 30 years, the $19.653 trillion number that flashes today at New Yorkers passing by at West 44th Street and Avenue of the Americas is a numerical reminder of the cost that came with declaring freedom from British tyranny. One of the other takeaways as Americans celebrate the national holiday for the 241st time is that before there was Wall Street, there were investors who backed the dream of independence that the signers of the historic document unleashed on July 4, 1976. It took more than vision to create a new nation. There were lenders and individuals in the background, many of them silent shareholders in what would become the United States of America. • touch & take off!
