Займы государственного долга выросли в два с половиной раза, но кого волнуют такие мелочи? Можно подумать, страной руководит человек, который шесть раз доводил бизнесы до банкротства. Смотрите - КАРАВАН!
The U.S. Treasury Department estimates it will issue more than $1 trillion in debt this year as higher government spending and sluggish tax revenues push the deficit higher. The Treasury said Monday it expects net marketable debt to total $425 billion in the fourth quarter, which would bring total debt issuance in 2018 to $1.338 trillion, compared with $546 billion in 2017. That would be the highest annual debt issuance since $1.586 trillion in 2010, when the U.S. economy was still crawling out of a recession. The Treasury’s fourth-quarter borrowing estimate of $425 billion is $15 billion less than it estimated in July. That would be the most for any fourth quarter since 2008, at the height of the financial crisis, though the figures can be volatile from quarter to quarter. The Treasury also plans to borrow $356 billion in the first quarter of 2019, compared with $488 billion in the first quarter of 2018. Rising federal budget deficits are boosting the Treasury’s borrowing and could restrain economic growth as the cost of credit also rises. https://www.wsj.com/articles/treasury-estimates-annual-net-marketable-debt-to-total-1-338-trillion-in-2018-1540839709
