TRX Reddit post asks whether mostly domestic US debt makes it less concerning
A Reddit r/investing post states that 75-78% of US national debt is domestic, roughly $30 trillion domestic versus $10 trillion foreign, against a GDP of about $32 trillion. The author lists federal trust funds, the Federal Reserve, state and local governments, banks, pension funds and individual investors as domestic holders, and asks whether the national debt issue has been overstated.
