There were many, many times the US was in significantly less debt than they are now.
Also, your other statement about Keynesian economics is wrong. We've had many times where government spending contracted and growth was rapid. Look no further than the 1990s: The government tightened up how much it spent over the whole decade, and we had a lot of growth. Comparatively, the 2000s saw rapid growth in government, and we ended on a horrible note in regards to the economy.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
