US Faces Financial Crisis: $1.9 Trillion Deficit in 2024 and Growing
Who’s to Blame? Both Parties Contribute to Mounting National Debt
According to Yahoo, The United States is facing a big financial problem. The government is spending more money than it’s taking in. This means it has to borrow money to make up the difference. The Congressional Budget Office predicts that the government will borrow $1.9 trillion in 2024, which is a lot of money. Over the next 10 years, the government will borrow even more, which could cause big problems.
Both the Republicans and Democrats have contributed to this problem. They have given tax breaks and increased spending over the years. The current president has also increased student loan forgiveness, which will add to the debt. Despite promising to reduce the debt, nobody has made significant changes to fix the problem.
