The recession may be over at last — so what now? [edited]

How did such a high amount of debt (in regards to GDP) get paid down TD, all while the standard of living, incomes, etc... all increased?

It didn't get paid back.

GDP went up and it made the debt a smaller percentage but only a small amount was actually paid back. That is one of the main points about the government spending so much money. They haven't paid anything back for 70 years, why would we believe they would start now?
