#USNationalDebt

The #USNationalDebt continues to be a pressing concern as it inches ever higher, now standing at over *$34 trillion* —a staggering figure that reflects years of cumulative borrowing and policy decisions. While some argue that national debt is a necessary lever for funding infrastructure, defense, and social programs, the scale of current debt is sparking serious conversations about long-term sustainability.

With rising interest rates, servicing this debt is becoming increasingly expensive. A significant portion of the federal budget is now going toward interest payments—money that could otherwise be invested in education, innovation, or public health.

Congress faces tough choices ahead: whether to rein in spending, increase revenues, or find a balance between the two. But what’s undeniable is that each delay in addressing the debt adds pressure to future generations.

Markets may remain resilient for now, but the growing debt pile carries weighty implications for economic stability and global trust in the U.S. financial system.

It’s time policymakers prioritize not just political wins—but fiscal responsibility that sustains the future. #FiscalPolicy #DebtCrisis #EconomicOutlook
