You seem to be having trouble understanding, so i'll try explaining it again. See the concern isn't the Debt its the lack of consumption and investment, now when government spends those billions that money enters the economy, they buy stuff, labor, goods, services, and materials, that goes to people and companies who save some of it and spend some of it, it doesn't matter who you are NJ5, even in this economy you are still spending some of your money, the money that isn't saved or used to pay off debts is then used to buy things, which means the money continues on the chain, at each stage some gets saved or used to pay down debts but some gets spent. This how a few hundred billions can result in trillions in effect, now for the government taking on debt isn't a concern in the short term which is why it doesn't really matter right now if they are going into debt, bcause they can continue to deficit spend in the short term.
