#USNationalDebt The United States public debt has grown significantly in recent decades, exceeding 120% of its GDP. This increase is due to persistent deficits, high spending (wars, economic stimulus, pandemic), and insufficient tax revenues. Although US Treasury bonds are considered safe assets globally, the escalating debt is causing concern. Organizations such as the IMF are urging the US to address its fiscal burden. The persistence of deficits and the need to refinance huge short-term maturities entail risks, including the possible need to raise interest rates and inflationary tensions, with repercussions for the global economy.
