Why is the U.S. Debt Expected to Keep Growing? | Econofact Despite the high-stakes debt ceiling negotiations, U.S. debt relative to GDP is projected to keep growing over the next decade. What factors account for this projection and why does it matter?

U.S. ran biggest trade deficits with China and Mexico in 2024. What about Canada? The U.S. ended 2024 with the second-largest trade deficit on record — and China and Mexico were the countries that benefited most from sending goods to America. Canada? Not so much.

Stay Loyal to NATO

The United States joined NATO in 1949 as a part of an effort to rebuild and stabilize Europe after WWII. The need to keep Europe stable is still in our best interest. The need to have allies in the world is in our best interest. Betraying our allies is is not!
