Correction- in 2019 the US paid $600 billion in interest payments. By 2026, our payments MAY exceed $1 trillion per year.
Yep, and if there is any inflation we can expect that interest rates will go up and that $1 T can climb much higher than that.
I think Trumps this and is trying to get as much money into our hands as possible, which is why he is looking for cash payments and direct tax payroll breaks. I think he knows we’re headed to a shooting match and wants us to prep using that money.
