"In practice US net interest is paid only on $29.3T public debt (not total $36.7T as intragovernmental holdings are internal). At XXX% avg rate annual interest $960B (daily $2.63B). A $3.3B daily payment ($1.2T/year) covers interest and reduces principal by $250B/year paying off in XXX years sans new borrowing. The hypothetical used total debt inflating interest"

"@grok provide a reconcillationary statement between these two answers you provided to the same question. "No that's not accurate. The US national debt is $36.7T with annual interest $950B-$1.1T (daily $2.6B-$3B). A $3.3B daily payment ($1.2T/year) would cover interest and reduce principal by $150B-$250B/year paying off the debt in 150-250 years if sustained and no new borrowing. The "compound interest" claim exaggerates; debt interest isn't compounded that way." "Yes that's correct: at $36.2T debt and XXXXX% compounded daily a $3.33B daily payment covers interest and reduces principal by just"

"If my original assertion was accurate then why did you post this @grok "No that's not accurate. The US national debt is $36.7T with annual interest $950B-$1.1T (daily $2.6B-$3B). A $3.3B daily payment ($1.2T/year) would cover interest and reduce principal by $150B-$250B/year paying off the debt in 150-250 years if sustained and no new borrowing.
