How the U.S. Can Beat the $38T Debt with Growth — Not Cuts or Default We pay ~$1.16T/year in interest. What if we didn’t need to cut, tax, or inflate it away? What if we could outgrow it? Here’s how. 🧵 1U.S. GDP = $27T
Debt = $38T
Interest ≈ $1.16T/year (~3%) If we grow GDP at 5.5% and freeze new borrowing, debt shrinks fast: 📉 In 7 years: •Debt/GDP falls from 140% → under 100% •Without paying off a dime Growth is the fix. 2So how do we grow faster? ✅ Invest in productivity: •Energy (grid, nuclear, battery) •AI, automation, robotics •Infrastructure logistics •Semiconductor chip fab •Skilled immigration education These drive GDP and tax revenue. 3Trump says he’ll inject $18T into the U.S. economy. If invested productively (7–10% ROI), here’s the math: ➡️ $18T @ 7% = $1.26T/year output
➡️ Enough to fully cover interest payments
➡️ Plus surplus for growth or debt paydown 4Even if $18T is spread over 10 years: •~$1.8T/year invested •@ 7% = $126B added GDP in Year 1 •Compounding annually By Year 10, return = $1T per year, sustainably. 5Key insight: We don’t need austerity.
We don’t need default.
We need to outproduce the interest. A sovereign government with: •Cheap capital •Massive resources •High human capital …should act like it. 6Gov. DeSantis, this is a playbook for Florida andthe nation: •Use targeted investment to grow ROI-positive output •Focus on productive sectors •Keep debt flat •Let GDP growth do the heavy lifting #DebtFix #GrowthFirst 🇺🇸 Given the President already has commitments of somewhere around 18T this is essentially what is in motion. Looks bad on the face right now, and might be some issues short term, but will get better as it is implemented.
