Debt Monster!

At $21 TRILLION, the national debt is growing 36% faster than the US economy

For example, in the span of a SINGLE DAY, from Thursday to Friday, the national debt grew by $73 BILLION. In a day. 

To put that number in context, $73 billion is larger than the size of most major companies like General Motors, Ford, and Southwest Airlines. 

And in the month of February alone, the national debt grew by an astounding $215 billion. 

$215 billion is larger than the GDP of New Zealand. Greece. Oregon. More than twice the size of the GDP of New Mexico. Just in a single month. 

Most disturbingly, the national debt has grown by more than $1 TRILLION… just in the last SIX MONTHS
