[@jayconrad5963]

Props to Matthew Piepenburg for the very thorough and excellent analysis!

[@platingandetch]

I remember one commentator during the 2020 election worrying that if Trump won he'd be walking into a catastrophic financial crisis (think Great Depression type crisis). Has that happened? No. There appears to be no limit to how far our politicians can kick the can down the road. But predicting a catastrophic financial crisis is a good career move. Most people don't want to be so downbeat. So when a catastrophic financial crisis does eventually occur, you look like a genius because you were one of the few voices predicting that.

Well he's been peddling gold for years. But he's wrong in his hair on fire attempt the be politically equal. SenileoelJoeBribem and thedemcorats have been unnecessarily and unprecedentedly deficit spending 6 to 10% of GDP since the minute he took office,... and getting 1 to 2% GDP growth,.. giving us 9 to 4% structural inflation. Demcoratseven say,.. "hey the economy is great,.." If it'ssophecking great,.. why are you stealing from tax payers and deficit spending $2 to $3 trillion each year,... in 2021, 22, 23, 24,.. years after the pandemic is over adding another $8 trillion to the debt,.. and causing this destruction of the dollar?

[@vincentrockel1149]

Our debt problem is not so much a debt problem as it is an integrity problem. The legislative branch has been deficient in their duty to eaise revenue in order to pay for the legislation they they pass. The debt is caused by irresponsible behavior in the financial system. No one is held accountable.

The politicians don’t have enough integrity to start cutting the budget and eliminating the huge deficit. Government spending must be drastically reduced. Whole federal departments must be abolished. Basically they have to create a jobs depression in government in order to keep the economy going.

[@ZekeTorres-r4q]

I hear you say AMERICA, AMERICANS!! As the name of our country?..WRONG! America happens to be the name of our CONTINENT! The name of our country is United States. We are Americans because our country happens to be in the American continent. America has 35 sovereign nations and over one billion people. We are Unitedstadians and our country does not speak for the rest of the 34 other countries in America, the Continent!! Precedence? There are many American countries that are over one hundred years older than the USA and we do not own this continent. With over 800 military bases around the world, not many want to disagree with US. The Europeans, Russians, Africans and Asians call us Americans because we tell them that we, the UNITEDSTADIANS are "Americans" We want to ignore the truth, to ourselves and to the world... but we do not speak for the interests of all Americans. Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Cuba, Haiti and many more are also American! How would the rest of Europeans respond if the French would claim themselves as being the ONLY EUROPEANS? I love my country where I grew up and live, USA. But if we want to be respected while we are not holding a whip, then stop our name ignorance. Latin Americans refer to us as 'Unitedstadians'... l agree with that!

[@Mr512austintexas]

What you're saying is NOT accurate. It undercuts your own argument when you don't have your facts straight. Here's a report from CNN: HEADLINE: Biden increases tariffs on $18 billion in Chinese imports in a new warning to Beijing TEXT: "President Joe Biden is increasing tariffs on $18 billion in Chinese imports across a handful of sectors deemed strategic to national security - an attempt to cripple Beijing’s development of critical technologies and instead prioritize US production. The increases will apply to imported steel and aluminum, legacy semiconductors, electric vehicles, battery components, critical minerals, solar cells, cranes and medical products. The new tariff rates - which range from 100% on electric vehicles, to 50% for solar components, to 25% for all other sectors - will take place over the next two years."

[@skanderchida9174]

It's the urgency of paying the bills right now, that cripples congress of thinking long term. Deficit spending, is predicated upon raising the debt ceiling, which ultimately puts the Fed in a position of printing more money to monetize that debt. That's why the prognostics are in favor of higher inflation, and possibly hyperinflation.

[@RonaldWarman-gr9kk]

I disagree. America is not polarized. That perception is what the media spews out.

[@fkrr5]

Our media is absolutely terrible

[@JB-qt3wo]

More even distribution of ethnic groups and the shrinking White majority is creating polarization. Why? Because the inherent power trapped in the White majority is being redistributed and the other groups are fighting over that power. The truth is sometimes not pretty. Hey, at least we had cheap labor and propped up the real estate market.

Thanks David. Can we please get a couple of guests on that have an alternative view to the doom and gloom. Investors have no problem buying more and more debt so why is there a current debt crisis. Yields are falling and inflation has moved back towards target. The rate cut cycle is about to kick off and whilst there has been some pain in the real economy via inflation, unemployment hasn’t deteriorated significantly and the rotation is now on in the Stockmarket as investors position for the next growth cycle…it’s hard to ignore what is actually occurring..

I accept distress in money system but it is not global. There are many countries that have FIAT systems and issue and withdrawal them responsibly. Inflation is issuing excess paper money compare to the nation's increased production. There is no inflation if the money issued matches increased productivity (literally vice versa for deflation) .

[@DavidWerking]

You can't run a world economy on precious metals alone. You can't run a countries' economy on precious metals alone. Gold is on the stock market exchange, and if you go on the stock market,, inflation is usually priced in. You could cut everything right now and in about 4 years time, we'd be up and running again, because some states run balanced budgets, (+1 if you live in one). If there's a crash, it all happens just the same, it just takes longer to recover. It's not crazy to petition for a controlled demolition. I feel that the people on the opposite side of my veil would have a difficult time coping with any changes for any duration of time. GDP is not government, never has been.
