Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, warned at the 2025 Forbes Summit that the United States will be “drowning” in debt unless methods to stimulate and develop the economy are found. Fink pointed out that U.S. national debt has risen from $8 trillion in 2000 to $36 trillion now, with an upcoming tax bill expected to add another $2.3-2.4 trillion. He emphasized that if the U.S. cannot achieve a real growth rate of 3% per year, it will face a serious crisis.

Despite the severe situation, Fink still proposed solutions, including releasing more private capital, simplifying licensing procedures, rebuilding infrastructure, and addressing the anticipated shortage of 500,000 electricians. He stated that the foundation for rise still exists, but if the U.S. continues to hover around 2% economic growth, the national debt will eventually crush the country.
