The War of 1812 more than doubled the nation's debt. It increased from $45.2 million to $119.2 million by September 1815. The Treasury Department issued bonds to pay a portion of the debt, but it was not until Andrew Jackson became president and determined to master the debt that this "national curse," as he deemed it, was addressed. By selling federally owned western lands and blocking spending on infrastructure projects, Jackson paid off the national debt after six years in office. This actually created a government surplus that Jackson divided among indebted states. Andrew Jackson was the last President to accomplish a Debt-Free America. America's current debt now stands at a staggering 27 + Trillion Dollars. Debt is a formidable impediment that must be managed or it can sink a small business in its wake. Today, I am interviewing a CEO who has developed a software that not only manages but eliminates your debt at many levels and puts you on a track to acquire a wealthy future.
