The national debt represents a transfer of wealth from "us" to "them" -- the bond holders.
The problem is that this transfer of wealth increases the class inequalities between "us" and "them".
By increasing taxes to pay down the debt we further increase the inequalities between classes.
Another problem is, as shown by several studies, countries with large inequalities between social classes grow more slowly. Social discontent is the logical outcome to high national debt.
