The U.S. accumulated debt through a combination of factors, including financing wars, such as the Revolutionary War and World War II, which necessitated borrowing. Additionally, government spending on social programs, infrastructure, and economic stimulus measures has contributed to rising deficits. Economic recessions and tax cuts without corresponding spending reductions have further exacerbated the debt. Over time, these factors led to a growing national debt as the government borrowed to cover shortfalls.
