The main problem illustrated by this slide is how long we have been running deficits (over 20-years), which means that our entire economic structure has aligned around this imbalance. Its not just a little bit of overspend, but 50% more than we take in, year after year.
At some point, when we have to reign in spending and reduce the debt (which is currently projected sometime in the next 6-years or so), that will produce significant market effects that could possibly crater consumer spending.
