It's $oo,ooo,ooo,ooo,ooo Big—The "national debt" hit $30 trillion. — Stephanie Kelton

I titled chapter three of The Deficit Myth, “The National Debt (That Isn’t)” not because I believe that the so-called debt doesn’t matter but because I think it doesn’t matter the way we’ve been taught to believe. I gave the Milken Institute permission to publish the chapter in its entirety. You can find it here.
