The Government Debt Crisis That We Have Been Warned About for Decades is Happening Right Now

For decades we were warned that someday our politicians would push things too far. We were warned that someday our national debt would spiral out of control, servicing that debt would become extremely oppressive due to soaring interest rates, existing bonds would crash thanks to the shift in interest rates, and foreign sources would start stepping back from buying any new debt that we would be issuing. Unfortunately, that time has arrived. The government debt crisis that we have been warned about is here, and it is going to be incredibly painful.

At this moment, our national debt is sitting at $33,836,693,993,860.35.

It is probably going to hit 34 trillion dollars by the end of the year.
