I have more than $200,000 in stocks, mutual funds and IRA’s saved for my retirement.

I would not be sorry to see it all disappear if it meant burning the entire federal government to the ground and forcing everyone to start living within their means.

The USA will easily be at >$1 Trillion deficits if there is a stock market correction or financial crisis.

The Federal Reserve, the foundation of the massive progressive nanny state, will then monetize government debt like crazy - helicopter money.

Then the US Dollar will become funny money

Baraq & Mooch will use the Clinton playbook starting with massive POTUS pardon bribes followed by Mooch running for Senate and hinting about being POTUS someday.

Massive influence peddling payoffs to the Baraq Obama Foundation will allow them to live like potentates.

From the person who grew up in his white country club surroundings in Honolulu and probably was excused from homework because his mother and grandparents thought that that was beneath him.

This fraud wasn’t venturing into country clubs as a youth. His character was being formed kneeling in front of a communist reprobate and then sucking on a roach.

All part of the act. The Democrats tried to be prophetic with the Denzel Washington-Liev Schreiber movie. When in fact, they engineered it themselves.

If it comes to pass that our entire life savings and investments made, at the time, at great sacrifice in order that we never become a burden to the ‘state’, go down the drain due to an inept, greedy, evil Congress and entire central socialist government, then I do hope it becomes ashes.

No, he just built half of it in eight years.
That was more debt than we had accumulated in 232 years, but then who's counting?  The nation's news media refuses to.

I certainly do not dispute that.

Nice... Just the “debt held by the public”. So debt in the Social Security program, or other debt held by the Government (borrowing from itself with loans covered by itself) doesn’t count?

If you go to the “Debt To The Penny” website, you’ll see the national debt is up $1.2 trillion this year - and still climbing. Probably break $1.3 trillion this year. Of course, that’s the TOTAL debt, not just a chunk of it...

It already is... Check the increase in the total debt over the last year, it's about $1.25 trillion so far, and counting.

So he’s blaming tax cuts that he first extended and then let expire?

"But God help us when the day of reckoning does arrive, as it inevitably will."

Yes, may God save us all, when the bill can no longer be kicked down the road, a tremendous set of shackles will descend upon us all and permanently enslave us to the banker and central government.

“So when does the system blow up?”

I don’t remember the source, but by 2028, all the tax revenue collected for the year will not be able to pay the yearly interest generated in serving Washington’s debt.

My guess is by 2028, if nothing changes.
