Original Note:
73% of the “waste” presented here are payments on our national debt. We have to make these payments, even if we reduce government spending in other discretionary and/or mandatory areas. Failing to do so could result in defaulting on our national debt. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/politics/how-a-debt-default-could-affect-you https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/datasets/interest-expense-debt-outstanding/interest-expense-on-the-public-debt-outstanding
