#USNationalDebt ¿A Growing Risk? 📉📊

In June 2025, the national debt of the United States reached $36.2 trillion, according to data from the Department of the Treasury. This amount, which combines public debt ($29 trillion) and intragovernmental debt ($7.2 trillion), reflects an increase of $4.7 trillion since 2023.

This has raised concerns among economists, investors, and citizens. This increase is due to ongoing spending on social programs, defense, and the servicing of interest on the existing debt. The Federal Reserve has expressed concern about the impact this fiscal burden may have on economic growth and long-term stability. 📉📊

One of the biggest current challenges is interest payments, which already represent one of the largest items in the federal budget. As interest rates have remained high to combat inflation, the cost of borrowing continues to grow, limiting the fiscal space for new investments. 💵🧨

Some experts suggest tax reform and stricter spending controls to curb this unsustainable pace. However, in an election year, structural decisions are postponed, leaving the country vulnerable to future crises of confidence in global markets. ⏳📉🇺🇸
