Hey Big Spender! US Gov’t Pays $3 BILLION In Interest Per Day (Federal Unfunded Liabilities At $219 Trillion While Total US Assets At $213 Trillion)

The US government now pays out on average $3bn in interest expenses per day…If the Fed cuts interest rates by 1%-point and the entire yield curve declines by 1%-point, then daily interest expenses will decline from $3bn per day to $2.5bn per day.
