Treasury Secretary Yellen: Debt Burden Sustainable at Current Levels Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that the U.S. national debt, currently at $34.7 trillion, is manageable if it remains stable relative to the economy. Despite high interest rates increasing the burden, Yellen emphasized the importance of focusing on the real interest cost of the debt. With net interest costs reaching $601 billion in the 2024 fiscal year, concerns remain about rising debt levels. Yellen supports President Biden’s plans to address these challenges. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Silver Stackers: "China Has Your Back" – Mike Maloney READ MORE "I Believe There's Another Banking Crisis, Probably Before the Election" Mike Maloney READ MORE June Inflation Report: A Potential Game-Changer for Fed Policy and Markets READ MORE How Productivity Gains Could Shape the Fed's Inflation Battle READ MORE Cryptocurrency Market Climbs Over $2 Trillion, Led by Bitcoin READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
