The U.S. is choosing to increase government spend while decreasing tax revenue. More debt - higher interest payments. Unless something drastic changes, we won't grow our way out of this problem. This debt will be eventually by paid though money printing, which is a tax on holders of dollars and U.S. bonds. This means the erosion of the U.S. treasuries as the world reserve asset and the flight to alternatives. Gold, bitcoin, eth, commodities, and some capital assets. God help anyone who holds wealth in bonds.
