Er we were not fine. I'm not sure who you know that went through the post WW2 years in Britain but according to my grandparents it was pretty austere. A large chunk of debt was to the USA / Canada, and we only finally paid your WW2 loan off in 2006. If you don't mind your future generations being under the yoke of debt until 2075 or so then go ahead...
