Visi zina par to, ko viņiem nācās atsaukt. Bet tas jau nav tikai Rogoff & Reinhart, to saka arī Pasaules banka, rinda citu ekonomistu: "A study by the World Bank found that countries whose debt-to-GDP ratios exceeds 77% for prolonged periods, experience significant slowdowns in economic growth. Pointedly: every percentage point of debt above this level costs countries 1.7% in economic growth. This phenomenon is even more pronounced in emerging markets, where each additional percentage point of debt over 64%, annually slows growth by 2%." https://elibrary.worldbank.org/doi/abs/10.1596/1813-9450-5391

Ņemot "debt-to-GDP" pašreizējos apmērus (valstis ir daudz aizņēmušās kovidkrīzes dēļ), patiesību varēsim visai drīz noskaidrot reālā pasaules eksperimentā. Pagaidīsim 10-20 gadus un varēsim redzēt eksperimenta augļus.
