USAGOLD note: As we conclude a less than agreeable year, the U.S. Treasury Department reports the federal debt to the penny at $27,512,907,024,042.97. On December 31, 2019, the debt figure stood at $23,201,380,134,806.73 making this year’s addition to the national debt $4,311,526,889,236.24 as of 12/21/2020 – by far the largest on record.
