Fox News isn’t involved.

The fact is over half of what we owe is owed to SS Trust and must be repaid in the coming 12-13 years. In addition, federal retirement plans and Medicare are owed most of the rest and the Medicare will have to be repaid by 2028. So, while it is true we owe China and others relatively little, the crisis is real and will become far more crushing in the coming 10 thru 15 years.

But you know this. I’ve been explaining it to you for at least that long.
