U.S. National Debt Tops Debt Limit
The latest calculation of the National Debt as posted by the Treasury
Department has - at least numerically - exceeded the statutory Debt
Limit approved by Congress last February as part of the Recovery Act
stimulus bill.
The ceiling was set at $12.104 trillion dollars. The latest
posting by Treasury shows the National Debt at nearly $12.135 trillion.
