The U.S. is drowning in debt. 80 trillion dollars. It’s not numbers on a page. It’s money borrowed and owed by everyone alive now and generations not even born yet. Politicians keep spending like there’s no tomorrow but there is one. Interest payments are eating everything alive. Less money for what matters: defense, roads, schools.
The media pretends this isn’t a disaster. But it is.
Here’s what you won’t hear from them:
• Every day we borrow more than many countries make in a year
• Countries like China hold a stake in our debt and can use it against us
• Inflation has already wrecked the dollar’s value
• No one in government wants to stop spending or fix the mess
• Interest rates going up could blow the whole thing sky high
