The US National Debt is as of today 1/29/26 trending at 38 Trillion US Dollars, and projected to grow to 40 trillion shortly. In 2026 the US interest on Treasury securities is expected to be 1 Trillion US dollars, and this amount will continue to grow every year. Currently the interest on the US debt is 22% of 2026 US revenues. I see a future where the United States has to issues new Treasury securities to pay the debt on old Treasury securities. If the US was a company, they could not stay in business long practicing this type of debt management.
