I find it interesting that a large number of people support spending increases to get out of debt.
Macro-economics 101, state based infrastructure spending to stimulate growth in the private sector during times when it is unable to support itself effectively, e.g recession. It's a pretty mainstream theory and the reason why so many people consider the current round of austerity measures to be ideological as opposed to economic measures.
