How come the “richest countries” have the most debt

400 viewsOther

The USA and Chin have the highest debt in the world but i don’t understand the concept of them being some of the wealthiest countries, does that debt need paying off? How do they get this debt? Ultimately it just doesn’t make sense to me.

Politicians everywhere like promising benefits at the expense of future taxpayers. The richer and more productive the country, the more debt they can accrue before destroying itself.
