These Numbers
As of the End of FY 03
Debt held by the public—$3.9T
Trust fund debt—$2.9T
Gross debt—$6.8T
Gross debt per person—about $24,000
If we add everything on the previous slide that is not included in gross debt, the burden per person rises to over $140,000. Alternatively, it amounts to a total unfunded burden of more than $40 trillion in current dollars, which is about 18 times the current annual federal budget or more than 3 ½ times the current annual GDP.
