U.S. debt and liabilities total $129 trillion

Russ Greene questions why individuals should bear responsibility for $40 trillion in U.S. debt and $89 trillion in unfunded liabilities related to Social Security and Medicare.

He points to the combined financial obligations as a significant fiscal concern.

Greene previously attributed the potential bankruptcy of Social Security in 2032 to what he called a lack of action by seniors, citing missed opportunities since the 1990s in a recent analysis. He has also drawn attention to public pension costs, highlighting the L.A. pension system's monthly payouts exceeding $100 million, with some retirees receiving over $1 million, according to prior reporting.
