A Data-Driven State of the Union | Just the Facts

Описание: What does the data say about the state of the United States?

In this video, USAFacts takes a data-driven look at key government indicators behind the State of the Union — including federal revenue, spending, deficits, national debt, inflation, trade, and the labor market — using official U.S. government data.

In fiscal year 2025, the federal government collected $5.3 trillion in revenue and spent $7.1 trillion, resulting in a $1.79 trillion deficit. By the end of the year, the national debt surpassed $38.5 trillion, while interest payments alone accounted for 14% of total federal spending.

This video also covers:

Where federal revenue comes from and how it’s spent
The size of the federal deficit and national debt
Interest costs and their growing role in the budget
Inflation trends and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts
Trade deficits, tariffs, and customs duties
SNAP participation, labor force trends, unemployment, and wages

Rather than focusing on politics or policy proposals, this video presents a concise, fact-based snapshot of where the country stands — so you can understand the numbers behind the headlines and make up your own mind.

All figures shown come from official U.S. government sources and reflect the most recent data available.
