We waste more on interest each year than Medicare, Medicaid, Education, Agriculture, Veterans, Housing, and Dept of State combined.
223 trillion with all the books involved. Never talked about, we are past being a joke. If your old, keep a good relationship with your children. You will live with them as our grand kids will vote the lie of social security away, with new government promises of course.
Don’t feel bad, your grand parents lived with their kids to.
