I’ve seen/heard estimates, including unfunded liabilities, of anywhere from $50 trillion up to $200 trillion, depending on what it includes and the variables used to calculate it. My view is, whether it’s $50 or $200 trillion really isn’t the point. The point is our government has spent this nation into bankruptcy, and all that’s left for it to come to a head is a catalyst event that causes a tipping point in loss of confidence in the fiat dollar’s real value. When that happens, there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth as we dive into a hyperinflationary collapse. The time to prepare for it is now, not later.
