Everyone is waiting for the 20 trillion of QE that will allow zirp and brrr later this year.

I’ve seen estimates for sovereign debt crisis from 10-20 years from now time range. Big money would likely make moves ahead of the real disaster possibly several years. This is a real problem in most of our lifetimes.
All I can figure to do about it is focus on acquiring real assets and I’ve started a rural property food forest as big inflation and or financial system lockup could disrupt movement of goods to local stores. If everything is fine I will eat healthier and enjoy the property.

They keep saying, "There's no way out of this." They always ignore the most obvious solution. Just take over some weaker country and take their resources and use profits from those sales to pay off the debt.

We privatized the executive branch, congress, and the Supreme court... this guy would still serve the monarchy in another time. Bow to the king.

"no different than a household"? I've heard enough. I'm out of here.

Couldn't the Fed crash the market by temporarily raising interest to 10%, then buy stocks cheap. They could then lower interest to zero and the market would rally. US could then use profits from selling stocks high to offset national debt.

OK, let's be honest here: Yes, the U.S. national debt is 36 Trillion dollars. However, we owe 9 Trillion of those dollars to OURSELVES! The government borrows money from itself when surpluses from special funds are lent to the rest of the federal government. So, owing yourself money is not really a big deal. Next time you do a show, keep truth in the frame. You're welcome.
