THE ERA OF TRUMP

What’s the insolvency number? It’s not 20 Trillion dollars.
And who is coming past our stockpile of world-destroying nukes to collect?
Riddle me that.

I would hope that the Officers in the DoD would have a plan to keep them secured in the absence of paychecks...


So riddle me this DB - how high can the debt go? No limit?

[DBTrek]

Higher than 20 trillion, which indicates “no limit” is a distinct possibility.

We would be the first country in the history of the world to do so - seems reasonable

Recite you points to me again when the debt is $40 trillion and we’ll see how you feel about thing then.

Its happening either way. The Left didn’t make it happen any more than the Right did. People are waking up to the fact that they’ve been sold a bill of goods.

What are people waking up about ?

That the state gives precisely zero fucks about your personal 'freedom' or well being. They've sold your potential for short-term political gains, and granted total freedom to megacorps that are poisoning Americans and destroying lives across the globe every day.

All aspects of government can now be tied to profit and corruption. The rule of law applies only to those without a lobbying group.

Those horrible employers ... forcing productivity and prosperity on innocent victims since 1776.

Nobody needs to "collect", they simply need to stop lending us money, and accepting dollars. Which is precisely what's happening.

The 10-year yield recently went above 3%, so we started issuing 1-3 month bonds. That's like pouring rocket fuel on the national debt.

The Chinese launched the Petroyuan, and Iran has started selling their oil in Yen rather than Dollars. Russia followed, and others are starting to. It's the beginning of the end for "reserve status" - which simply means that our currency is the most trusted to hold its value.

Meanwhile, we just created $20 T in play money when our banks failed.

Once bond sales fail, where is the money coming from? What's a dollar worth?

Bain Capital, Lockheed Martin, Amazon, Google, and Goldman Sachs... "employers".

Propaganda runs deep with you.

Right - Amazon, Google, and Lockheed don’t employ anyone. I forgot. They’re run by droids and ghosts.


Fuckin’ Evil Employers
