#USNationalDebt
The U.S. national debt has surpassed $34 trillion, driven by persistent budget deficits, government spending, and rising interest payments. This growing debt poses long-term economic risks, including inflation, reduced fiscal flexibility, and higher borrowing costs. Investors often monitor it as a sign of economic health and potential instability. Political debates continue over whether to cut spending or raise taxes. As interest rates rise, so do debt servicing costs, making it a growing concern.
