I saw this today:
“The United States federal debt is forecasted to grow to a record 202% of the gross domestic product by 2051, the Congressional Budget Office reported on Thursday, reflecting healthcare and debt services cost growth. The national debt for 2021 is estimated at 102%.”
So I’m curious, if the U.S. is in so much dept (I think a lot of countries are?) How doesn’t it run out of money?

When you don’t print your own money, debt is cash you need to acquire in order to pay off. When you do print your own money, debt is a bet that you will do better economically in the future.
