While watching a video on empires that collapsed, I started a chat with #AI to help me understand where the United States might be heading.
It explained that spending exceeds income by about $2 trillion per year in the U.S. federal budget—a sum so enormous it’s hard to grasp without comparisons or metaphors.
So I asked for a few of ways to put that amount into perspective…
America’s yearly budget shortfall is about as much as the whole economy of Brazil.
America’s annual deficit would buy Apple outright, every year.
$2 trillion is about $8,400 for every American adult - that’s $700 per month.
