The $40 billion a year of higher economic activity would, however, generate roughly $10 billion a year in additional tax revenue. Using some of it to pay the real interest on the debt and saving the rest would mean that when the bill comes due, the tax-financed reserves generated by the healthier economy would be more than enough to pay off the additional national debt.
但是，经济活动每年提高400亿美元会产生大约100亿美元的额外税收收入。用其中的一部分来支付债务的真是利息，并将剩余部分储蓄起来，这样，在债务到期时，由更健康的经济所产生的来自税收的储备将足以偿清增加的国民债务。
