An excellent question, and at what level of interest?
A record $8.9 trillion of government debt will mature over the next year. Meanwhile, the government deficit in 2024 is projected to be $1.4 trillion. This means that someone will need to buy more than $10 trillion in US government bonds in 2024. That's nearly ONE THIRD of all
