US Debt Rises Above $33 Trillion For The First Time, Soars By $1 Trillion In 3 Months

On Sept 6, when looking at the latest daily debt numbers, we predicted that total US debt would hit the very special ( at least for Masons) number of 33 in two weeks.

We were off by 2 days, with the US treasury naturally obliging by hitting the number early rather than late.

Today, the Treasury announcedthat for the first time, total US debt has surpassed $33 trillion, rising by $56 billion in one day,and by a mindblowing $1 trillion in just the past 3 months!

The historic breakout takes place just weeks before the interest on total Federal debt is set to hit $1 trillion, surpassing how much the US spends on defense - and soon after - every other outlay category.

Finally, for those who expect a happy ending, we have one word: "don't."

Here is the CBO's latest debt forecast. It shows that US debt is now set to hit $50 trillion by 2030 (probably much sooner though), and then proceed exponentially higher until the US currency finally collapses.
