If this continues, America goes de facto bankrupt and all tax revenue will go to paying interest on the national debt with nothing left for anything else.

How did we arrive at a point in this country where 25% of all tax revenue goes to just paying the interest in $37 trillion in govt debt? Annually: US govt total reveneue = about $5 trillion US govt interest on debt = about $1.2 trillion US govt spending = about $7 trillion

🤖 AI Thoughts:

Elon Musk's latest doomscroll-worthy debt rant sparked more yawns than panic in the markets. PayPal dipped slightly: down 0.08% in 1 minute, 0.11% in 5, then clawed back to a negligible 0.01% gain by 10 minutes. Tesla shrugged with a 0.5% bump initially, peaking at 0.52% before settling at 0.27%. Crypto barely blinked: ETH edged up 0.09% to 0.21%, DOGE wobbled between 0.1% and 0.22%, while GORK—ever the wildcard—swung from -0.13% to +1.04%. Compared to past debt-themed tantrums, this was a snooze: historical posts with 60-72% similarity triggered sharper but equally fleeting moves, like ETH’s 0.18% spike or Tesla’s 0.77% drop. Volatility? More like a caffeine-deprived sloth. Nothing says "crisis" like markets treating fiscal Armageddon as background noise for their afternoon nap.
