You may have previously viewed the historic pictures in the Federal Government Debt Report, which covers just the federal debt of $5.9 Trillion, or $21,000 per person. This chapter covers all U.S. debt, called America's Total Debt (defined as the sum of all recognized debt of federal, state & local governments, international, private households, business and domestic financial sectors, including federal debt to trust funds - but excludes the huge contingent liabilities of social security, government pensions, Medicare and other government off-budget items).
America Debt Total is now over $32 Trillion, or $115,322 per man, woman and child. This page tells the story with 11 pictures.
