Deuda de EE.UU. supera $40 billones, Vance culpa a Biden

El Departamento del Tesoro informó el 19 de agosto que la deuda federal bruta de EE. UU. había superado los $40 billones, y el vicepresidente JD Vance el 22 de agosto culpó a la administración Biden del nivel récord, lo que llevó a los observadores fiscales a advertir sobre una trayectoria fiscal insostenible.

Informes anteriores a principios de agosto mostraron que la deuda alcanzó $40,05 billones, con pagos de intereses que superaron el billón de dólares al año y un crecimiento de aproximadamente $90 000 por segundo. Los analistas señalaron que alrededor de $11,5 billones se acumularon durante la presidencia de Donald Trump y advirtieron que el rápido aumento podría encarecer los costos de endeudamiento y comprometer la estabilidad fiscal.
