The $2.3 Trillion State and Local Government Debt Monster

04-12-2010 • MyBudget360.com

States do not have the ability to print money at the whim of any central banker. And the state and local government debt market is up to a whopping $2.3 trillion. At this point, trillion is the new billion. The growth in local government debt has exploded since the 1970s. We went from $295 billion in 1968 to $2.3 trillion today. But as Greece is demonstrating, there is such a thing as having too much debt and at a certain point the markets no longer have an appetite for so much borrowing. Average Americans probably have a hard time examining the large numbers being thrown around.
