Look at it another way. 5% annual interest on $2.4 trillion comes to $120 Billion per year forever.

Look at it another way. If you were a business person or just a stay at home person balancing a budget, wouldn't you want to know what you are getting for borrowed money you are spending? Wouldn't you want some accountability?

Wouldn't you be a little bit concerned if you failed to borrow enough from your creditors with an open check book and need supplemental borrowing of $46 Billion for essentials (like food, bullets, and other essentials to support your soldiers who you say are fighting an existential war for survival)?

Is this just a bit alarming or not?
