It should be junk rating. That debt will never be repaid and the country will most likely go bankrupt soon.

Just as expected. The puppet master banksters have been made very happy.

The debt downgrade occurred back in August, and market already priced that in ages ago. This video would only be relevant if the downgraded US debt again today.

Can we get Andy's mic adjusted, hard to hear him compared to Corey & Noah. Thanks!

[@Gottie333]

He keeps on turning his head when he’s excited 😂. He’s not talking into the mic. The other two keep their heads pointed at the mic.

Hmm 🤔🤔🤔 = The Government Numbers 😂😂

My instinct is... zero course correction in 2023 has tipped the balance: the US [after real inflation gets factored in] has tripped into negative territory regarding marginal productivity of debt. About this time next year when the final 2024 report is in hand, there are going to be some jaw dropping revisions. Anyone not familiar with what going negative means its this: for every dollar uncle sam borrows, it causes loss in growth. Keep in mind of course one of the government accounting tricks is an automatic assumption is made in government borrowing: it gets counted as "real" economic activity and gets added to gdp, no matter what - zero uestions asked. The nation has been... taterized.

If you think Americans are economically illiterate, I was just trying to explain cash flow to some Germans. They don’t stand a chance.
