I'm not so sure it's a myth that will never go away. Polls show that almost nobody cared about national debt until the 70s, when there was a concerted effort by the neoliberals of the world to use it to squeeze more surplus from the working class and the global south.

As easy as this myth took root, another can. It's a matter of effort/organization.
