Its directly. For about 45 years we have been borrowing money and handing it to folks like the Walmart heirs. Everyone suspected something was amiss but they got us debating things like gay folks in the military and men in dresses reading to kids in public libraries and here were are.....

And what are you alluding to? Trump's inauguration? Surely you don't think he can drive the economy off the cliff that fast, do you?
I mean, he’s gutting the civil service and throwing up tariffs. That doesn’t exactly inspire consumer confidence.

I saw an article the other day that basically said the US government is propping up delinquencies in the FHA housing market. Basically everyone that isn't paying their note, the government is just rolling that principal back into the loan and not marking them delinquent. I'm curious to know if that's true or not

(a) how is he gutting civil service, describe please in terms of percentages of salary spend or headcount.
(b) how does that ruin consumer confidence? I'm a lot more likely to think our nation is well off if there isn't a glut of civil service employees running up the debt

If 20% of the TOTAL budget is fraud, then eliminating that will (short term) drop a nuke on GDP.
No one is alleging that 20% is fraud. That is a ridiculous estimate.
