The United States' Colossal National Debt and the Challenges of Financing It =============== #7b8e26cc ver:0.63 The United States is facing a dire situation with its colossal national debt of over $34 trillion, almost the same size as the entire economy. The debt is projected to double within 30 years, posing significant risks and increasing funding costs globally. Despite warnings from institutions like the IMF, there is currently no plan to address the growing debt crisis. Raising taxes and reducing the budget deficit are potential solutions, but the urgent need for action remains unresolved. The mounting debt and rising inflation present a contrasting reality to President Biden's claim of economic growth. The US government's borrowing to fund expenses has resulted in a debt that is becoming more expensive to finance. The debt is not expected to be repaid anytime soon, and there are concerns about the functioning of the government and frequent disagreements over the debt ceiling. The national debt is over $34 trillion, and interest payments are approaching $1 trillion annually. The US economy added 175,000 new positions in April, but unemployment nudged up to 3.9%. The national debt took 215 years to reach $7 trillion, but it overspent another $7 trillion from March 2020 to June 2022. The lack of media coverage and fiscal conservatives in Congress contribute to the lack of attention to the debt issue. The rising levels of government interest expense on the debt could trigger a market shutdown and jeopardize the economy. The US debt numbers are pushing investors towards alternative investments like Bitcoin and gold. #NationalDebt #USDebtCrisis #EconomicRisk #Inflation #Taxation #BudgetDeficit #GovernmentShutdown #FiscalResponsibility #FinancialStability #Bitcoin #GoldInvestment... #newstr #UsDebt #NationalDebt #Economy #GovernmentSpending #DebtCrisis https://here.news/story/7b8e26cc?ver=0.63
