well, you are confusing the national debt with loans made by the federal reserve. the frb loans money to banks which the banks pay back to the frb+ the interest.

the national debt is comprised of debt held by the public & is all federal debt held by states, corporations, individuals, and foreign governments, such as Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, TIPS, United States Savings Bonds, and State and Local Government Series securities.
