Less government for each borrowed dollar

Government non-interest expense for each dollar of interest expense.  How much more government do we get for each borrowed dollar?

Less, the slope is trending down. A good deal of our interest expense is tied up and refinancing the  Reagan/Bush bailout of Texas as well as bunch of other money losing programs.

Consider the ten year rate, declining almost continually since 1980. The means Krugman convinces us to spend today with the high rates of yesterday. We end up paying the Krugman bonus to wealthy people by being so cyclic.
