IMF Issues STARK WARNING TO UNITED STATES!

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) the US is on a collision course with disaster if our government keeps spending the way it is. They say that if we continue down this road, we will no longer have fiscal stability and that's a big problem considering the United States holds the privilege as having a dollar being the global reserve currency. Our bad behavior can up and the entire global economy, if we keep this up.

I would love to know how you believe that raising interest rates cools off inflation? How exactly does giving people, that already have money, more money cause inflation to slow down? Interest rates only have an effect on the cost of things. When you raise rates, you raise the cost of everything. That is not a deflationary action. The Ukraine war has had an impact on inflation because Ukraine has been targeting oil refineries to prevent Russia from selling oil and fuel to fund the war is waging on Ukraine. India finally quit buying oil from Russia so they are purchasing out of the same oil supplies that we purchase from. That drives the price up. When oil goes up in price, everything goes up in price.

[@thomasbassett5475]

I can't imagine wanting to be lied to for any reason. I prefer to always know the truth so that I'm able to make informed decisions in my life. This is just common sense. That's why I was very surprised to find out that most people in this country never want to face the truth unless it's good news. The moment you start talking about anything bad that's happening here, the majority of the people immediately go into denial mode and refuse to talk to you anymore. So I just don't talk to people in this country anymore and I'm moving to a more sane country that like to keep things real and is willing to talk about things in order to hopefully find a way to make things better. Many times that might require that people fight back the people who are trying to rip us off no matter who they are. It's obvious that our government has been hijacked by the rich and this should have every American furious and unacceptable to them. There should be people rioting and protesting in the streets that they will not allow these criminals to do this to them and that they will physically remove these people who are doing these things if they continue down that road. But we are not seeing anything like that which is why these criminals have continued to rob us blind. And the majority of the people don't seem to give a shit about this and they prefer to just not believe that our government is capable of screwing us over like this. They are going to have a very rude awakening eventually and I'm sure they are all going to be pointing fingers at each other when it was the people's fault really for allowing those criminals to take things so far. Why wouldn't these criminals rob us blind when they know that nobody is going to hold them accountable. One thing for sure is that this is not just a reset that the people in this country will be able to accept. These criminals put us in debt for the next 1000 years and that's just the hard reality that nobody wants to accept. So I hope the people will enjoy living in a third-world country because that's going to happen now. The damage is already done and it cant be undone. The only way to undo this is to pay off that debt. Economists all agree that it will take us thousands of years to pay this amount of money back. People have no idea how much a trillion really is. To give you an idea of how much that is, they say that you could stack 1 dollar bills to the moon and back and to the moon again. And before this is over we will be in debt of around 34 trillion dollars. This money can only be paid by the taxes that we pay to our government. And once this economy begins to collapse, there will be millions of people finding out that their banks are now bankrupt and that the dollar will be worth about 3 cents and that they no longer have a job to go to anymore. And there is no way to prevent this from happening any more. The people who stole this money will certainly be long gone from here. The billionaires have been cashing out of their stocks in and purchasing other currencies with that money to prevent them from losing the majority of their wealth. That should be a clear sign that they know this economy will not be saved. Really the best advice I could give anyone in this country today is for them to sell everything while you can even at a loss and find some other country to move to while they still can because that wont be an option for many people in the near future and it will no longer be a safe place for people to live because things are going to get real bad here and its not going to get better in our lifetimes. It doesn't sound real, I know . But that is just the cold reality of this situation and you will never hear them talking about this in the mainstream media. All you will here is lies from them because they are not trying to start a panic.But I can assure that they are only holding that panic back because there is no way to fix this. If there was a way to fix this then there would be people talking about that and I have yet to hear anyone talk about any possible solutions for this situation. People who wanted to be informed with the truth have the luxury of trying to save themselves from what's to come here. People who choose to not want to know will be in for a rude awakening and will find themselves in a very bad situation because they didn't take action before it all collapsed around them. People seem to think that its impossible for our society to self implode and they are very wrong because history shows many examples of great societies that were destroyed and never came back. So history will repeat itself once again because we didn't learn from their mistakes once again.

That's part of the problem; other would be reinstating Glass-Stegall Act and the other from that era prohibiting stock buybacks by companies, or at least, taxing it heavily. And USA has to move from credit card to debit cards, like Europe does. Because credit card habits and culture translates to acceptance of state and gov spending. Also - while that might sound crazy - taxing excessive debt: say, any payment beyond 25% of monthly income is taxed in some rate - say 10% - and money go to dedicated stability fund or something.

Rates need to be raised, but only because the government won't stop spending. The Fed can only control the demand side. The supply side is the result of the treasury's reckless spending. The problem is a combination of bad monetary policy(the Fed), and bad fiscal policy(the US treasury). The later does the bulk of the damage.

[@carolbagwell6769]

​@matthewphillips5483 Right 100% this is a program that was created 17 years ago to help get people to choose public service. They work for 10 years in lower paying jobs to help pay for their student loans. It's a program that has helped fill very needed positions that were going unfilled. Just like when you join the military to go to medical school and then have to do 6 years as a military doctor. Would there be enough firefighters to save you or your house without this program? Nurses or doctors to save you from a heart attack? Teachers to educate your brats? People aren't realizing they have been counting on a lot of people in their lives that have used this program.

If you look at European history, when there was a serious economic crisis, that was followed by WAR. Wars often start following growth collapses. Sharp economic slowdowns and low levels of income per capita appear to increase the likelihood of conflicts. Economic slowdowns can lead to military conflict as political leaders facing domestic challenges may seek diversionary targets, particularly vulnerable trade partners. The economic conditions can lead to War if terrorist groups use terrorist activities as a means to bring about change in the country. And if you don't think that the world is in a heightened state of preparation for War, is already at War, a world where we're all drowning in a rising sea of red ink - then you haven't been paying attention. Nuclear weapons science and technology is at least 80 years old. IOW, it's a mature science and technology. What we're working on now is miniaturization; the bomb in a suitcase. BTW, the Nuclear Club includes Britian, China, France, India, Israel, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, the U.S. Not all of them are our friends. You can see where all this is headed. Not good.
