America’s escalating public debt has reached $34.7 trillion, and experts like Jamie Dimon and Jerome Powell are alarmed by the rapid increase, with an additional $2.1 trillion added in just three months. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reports the deficit will rise from $1.5 trillion this year to $2.6 trillion by 2034, with the debt-to-GDP ratio expected to surge from 99% to 122%. The rise is fueled by recent legislation, including $95 billion in aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Indo-Pacific countries, along with ongoing funding obligations.
