Debt - Has to be repaid reduce money for Div - How ever once repaid the div can increase - The debt has a limited life span that allows increased div's to current issued share levels after a period of time
Equity - True no equity no repayments - But dilution you share the increased funds with new shares issued permanetly. Unlimited lifespan. So increased profits have to feed more mouths.
Pretty obvious & media now running the rights issue angle
