Unsolved debt debate

Watching the debates strikes an amazing similarity of two teenage girls arguing. The conversation on how incompetent our politicians have been made and the argument on who is better, like either is a good choice, have been said and that horse, beaten. The issue of them alone is not what this about. Trump and Clinton are always making unnecessary digs and never really answering the conflation fully and or head on. One of the main topics they’ve answered but never solved is our nation’s debt issue. The article Ignoring the Debt Problem brings to light how our candidates are avoiding one of our nation’s main issues.

 Donald Trump's plan is to have deep tax cuts but that has the risk of increasing the debt to G.P.D. While Hillary has a more thought out plan it still won't be the best long term because it would fail to stabilize the debt. As I've said before, and what many people are thinking, neither should be running to run our country. Especially, since neither have a solid answer for our debt. Whichever one graces us with their leadership will be faced with an issue they don't have an answer for and people will be expecting them to begin to solve it immediately but they will have to run around in ovals scrambling to make a passable plan. Our debt may be manageable at the moment but our country should know better than anyone that things can take a turn for the worst at any moment. We are already in unbelievable debt as of now and if we let it get any more out of hand, we will be eating out of the hands of our foreign friends and we all know how much Mr. Trump hates working with anyone other than Americans. If that is reality we are headed towards it will be his personal hell. Our IOU can only grow to a certain amount before our "friends" will start expecting us to pay up. We want to be able to provide a stable economy for our future generations yet the people leading us have no plan to get us there.
 
Our candidates need to approach this realistically. I have no real personal statement of what that plan should be but I don't think I have enough information to make one but you know who should? Our candidates. We don't need a fancy plan that supposedly gives us everything we need; we just need a simple plan to get us started down the right path. It won't happen immediately and to think it wills is just is as realistic as a good candidate winning this election. Gradual changes that will keep in mind that benefit of the population are the best. Again, I'm not sure what this plan is but I don't have enough life experience to make one but at least I'm trying to think if a beneficial one instead of making people think I know what I'm talking about when all the candidates are really doing is, just talking to hear themselves talk. Having a plan with no real details on it is just as good as no plan, which is basically what we have anyways.
