Public sector net debt amounted to 95.8 percent of gross domestic product in the United Kingdom during the 2024/25 financial year, or 90 percent when the Bank of England is excluded. UK government debt is at its highest levels since the early 1960s, due to a significant increase in borrowing during the COVID-19 pandemic. After peaking at 251.7 percent shortly after the end of the Second World War, government debt in the UK gradually fell, before a sharp increase in the late 2000s at the time of the global financial crisis. Debt not expected to start falling until 2029/30 In 2024/25, the UK's government expenditure was approximately 1.28 trillion pounds, around 44.7 percent of GDP. This spending was financed by 1.13 trillion pounds of revenue raised, and 151 billion pounds of borrowing. Although the UK government can still borrow money in the future to finance its spending, the amount spent on debt interest has increased significantly recently. Recent forecasts suggest that while the debt is eventually expected to start declining, this is based on falling government deficits in the next five years. Government facing hard choices Hitting fiscal targets, such as reducing the national debt, will require a careful balancing of the books from the current government, and the possibility for either spending cuts or tax rises. Although Labour ruled out raising the main government tax sources, Income Tax, National Insurance, and VAT, at the 2024 election, they did raise National Insurance for employers (rather than employees) and also cut Winter Fuel allowances for large numbers of pensioners. Less than a year after implementing cuts to Winter Fuel, the government performed a U-Turn on the issue, and will make it widely available by the winter of 2025.

The United States economy began to experience a period of higher inflation at the end of the 1960s. This trend marked the end of what was termed the 'Golden Era of Capitalism', a period following World War II in which the United States experienced historically unprecedented annual growth rates, along with low inflation and unemployment. While the causes of this inflation are debated, expansionary fiscal policy related to the Vietnam War at a time of full employment in the early 1960s likely contributed to rising price levels. Taxes were not raised to compensate for the increased costs of the war until 1968, at which point inflation had already climbed to 3.6 percent. On the other hand, military spending was small compared to overall U.S. GDP during this period, reaching a peak of 9.8% in 1968, indicating that military spending alone cannot explain the rising inflation rate. The sharp uptick after 1973 came as a result of the 1973 Arab-Israeli War in the Middle East, where Arab countries implemented an oil embargo against the United States for its support of Israel, and the price of oil rose exponentially.
