A new report from the Peter G Peterson Foundation, with analysis from EY's QUEST practice, projects that the United States' national debt will lead to a significantly smaller job market and lower wages for younger generations like Gen Z and Generation Alpha. By 2075, the U.S. could see 3.6 million fewer jobs and a 5.3% decrease in take-home pay compared to a scenario where debt is stabilized. This fiscal trajectory is driven by rising interest costs, which are projected to exceed the combined outlays of several major government departments. AI
IMPACT AI's potential to offset job losses due to national debt is mentioned, but the core impact is economic policy.
