Look here for what the .gov pays in interest rates:

These rates are abnormally low, and if they double (back to about average), the .gov pays twice the interest and adds hundreds of billions to the deficit. Plug in Jimmy Carter rates, and it is all over - the federal budget doubles and it is all interest payment.

Compare to 1990 rates:
