- America faces a "historic capital squeeze" as trillions Washington must borrow to pay for the past collide with trillions the economy needs to build the future, including AI-driven investment
- The next president will inherit a "fiscal reckoning decades in the making," with costs exacted on taxes and other fiscal levers
Why it matters: With legacy debt service and forward-looking investment demands both running into the trillions at the same time, the next administration has no painless fiscal option — tradeoffs on taxes and federal priorities become unavoidable rather than negotiable.
