Deficit spending usually is done to maintain social welfare programs, which makes more money available to low income citizens, which raises inflation. It’s telling that the first parts of the budget they always want to be cut are government wages and benefits.
This also acts as a signal for the private sector that it’s ok to reduce wages.
But they don’t hold it against the US or European countries, even with inflation but to under developed countries any amount of deficit spending is a deadly sin which gravely damages their risk indices
They applied the same things to the European PIICGS that went under (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Cyprus, Greece, Spain), in coordination with the European Central Bank.
