Why? Global reserve currency and the US, as messed up as it is, remains the BEST economy and currency still going in the world.
And hundreds of billions in corruption no longer matter either. Corruption is the new standard and now normal.


At best though we will go thru some form of japanification. You keep using deficit spending to "create" growth but really you are just borrowing growth from the future.

At worst the delta between the well being of those that own homes and equity securities and the poors will grow so large that friction will be inevitable.

So essentially there is absolutely nothing that can stop any of this right?

Crazy how a few billion a few years back was such an issue, and look at where we are now.

Sad what this nation is being turned into. Wonder when we'll start seeing reports of foreigners not wanting or dollars.

This is when I know someone is full of shite. Loopholes = the current law. Just say you want to change the law, don’t make it sound like people following it today are doing anything wrong or have found some way to cheat.

40% of the currency we have in circulation has been printed in the last year.

It's a multi-trillion dollar stimulus, just the same.

Corporations fight tooth and nail for market share. The only way all of them would raise prices to cover all of the tax increase would be if they coordinated. Otherwise there's too much incentive to maintain prices and maintain market share.


Oh my a God at the moronic logic. How can one get out of high school believing this?

As long as we write it all off, and it doesn't have to be paid back, I say print and print.

The most important lesson Trump taught Democrats is to never take Republican squawking about the deficit seriously ever again. Make the money go.
