Original Note:
Though used interchangeably, debt and deficit have differences. The projected deficit for the U.S. was about $3 trillion in 2021. Deficits don't rely on principle or interest. Debts are money owed; 31.1 trillion in 2022. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/081315/debt-vs-deficit-understanding-differences.asp
