debt

In Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, @the Hub launched in June with volunteers offering people support on issues like benefits, housing and debt advice.

They include new residency slots, debt forgiveness, waived medical school tuition, new ways of paying doctors, expanded nurse practitioner roles, and a statewide target to increase primary care spending.

Leeds City Council does not make people ineligible for housing because of rent debts when they are fleeing domestic abuse, but Gemma did not know this.

A little less unlikely perhaps is the idea that those countries with a trade surplus with the US could help fund the US with an effective tax on their holdings of US government debt.

If these programmes are not cut back, sweeping tax cuts that Trump has promised would further increase the scale of US government debt and put at risk arguably his biggest election promise - economic prosperity.
