Month 2 of the slow-motion meltup

On 7/31/18, the Debt Held By the Public was at $1.5569 x 10^13.
On 8/31/18, the Debt Held By the Public was at $1.5785 x 10^13, an increase of $216 billion in only one month, during which the economy was booming. I think that every month from here on out (with the exception of April) this number will increase more than $100 billion per month.
