National Debt and Spending Fuel the Roosevelts Critics
In a 1933 analysis, William Bruckart argues the United States faces a growing national debt funded by taxes on citizens. He notes the November debt near 23.53 billion and December adds 225 million, warning that ongoing federal spending to create jobs risks taxpayer burden and possible debt repudiation. He cites emergency outlays, under Roosevelt, totaling 692.8 million through November, with 298.5 million in November alone. He warns of new taxes to balance the budget and critiques revenues from liquor taxes as insufficient, urging restraint on spending and debt growth.
