The US has always borrowed money; even the Revolutionary War was partially financed by loans. The national debt of the US has risen and fallen at different periods of its history. President Ronald Reagan borrowed much more money than his predecessors, and that trend has continued with only a few interruptions (Bill Clinton is the only recent President who reduced the national debt rather than increasing it). President Obama is borrowing more than anyone ever has before, but he is trying to cope with proboems that he inherited from the previous administration, so I do not blame him personally.
