I am curious, what do you think happens when the US government is faced with the choice of paying interest on its current debt versus funding its current service obligations?

I can only think of a handful of options, and each one has potential negative trade offs:

1. Reduce services to pay debt. 2. Raise taxes to pay debt. 3. Print money to pay debt. 4. Default on some debt to pay for services. 5. Take on more debt to pay debt.

None of these are mutually exclusive, so it is possible to pick all of them, some of them, or only one.
