Mr. Unexpected didn’t expect that borrowing lots of money to pay people not to work would cause the country to be massively in debt — while also reducing the number of people able to repay that debt.
Mr. Unexpected also didn’t expect that this would require him to get the country into even deeper debt to repay the existing debt he couldn’t pay back in the first place.
Mr. Unexpected expected that if the country was a nicer, kinder place, no one would really worry about the debt at all.
