Not only does nobody care, but nobody should care. Apologies if you're already familiar with it, but "The Deficit Myth," by Stephanie Kelton, shows that our moral panic over deficits is based on a fundamentally flawed understanding of how money works. Everyone should read this book (it's very readable), but if Dem (and other liberal/progressive) politicians read it, that would be a start. https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/lsereviewofbooks/2020/06/22/book-review-the-deficit-myth-modern-monetary-theory-and-the-birth-of-the-peoples-economy-by-stephanie-kelton/
