If it doesn’t the greed, corruption and lethargy will.

The debt will be cancelled - all of it.

What it will take for that to happen is unknown and unknowable at this time. But a simple knowledge of history tells the story, over and over.

“Owe the bank ten thousand and can’t pay? You have a problem. Owe the bank ten million and can’t pay? The bank has a problem”

It was Bush Cheney and the deal for the WOT and the Invasion of Iraq to fix the Middle East that got this all going.

Market will ramp up and in the course of 3 days drop 20%.

Ask yourself where did that go?

Yeah, between the creation of the Federal Reserve, the direct election of Senators, and the National Income Tax more than a century ago, the event has already occurred.

No Nation in the history of the World survived such debt like we have, the Germany Republic after WW1 only had 1 trillion in debt...

Declare bankruptcy with the Federal Reserve, a private non governmental entity.
US then has a currency crisis, develops into a Venezuela scenario, government shuts down for lack of financing….the good news? It can rebuild on sound money principles- if our enemies don’t finish us off.

We also have tens of millions of migrants, and tens of millions of American underclass, who rely on government handouts.

They won't take it well when the handouts stop.

Surely this is a joke...
The American “empire” no longer exists in any residual form...
All that remains is a Soviet-style 3rd word country...

Interesting that Italy and france can control their debt but the United States cannot. We need to study why they are smarter than we are.

Can’t Biden just forgive the debt like the student loans? Obvious sarcasm but it needs to be pointed out as such for a few.

They are going to die, ALL OF THEM, within the first 90 days of a government collapse. They will first resort to cannibalism but quickly run out of flesh to feast on. Many democrats in the shithole urban ghettos do that now.

They will also riot and burn down their OWN cities but to no avail. NO ONE is coming to help them! It is going to be glorious. /spit

And fifteen years later they damn near conquered the world.

Stop focusing on money. On September 2, 1945 all your yen were worthless. Look at Japan now,

The money system will be rebuilt. The usurers will hang or flee. It will be fine.

That $$$$$$$$ is going into evil leaders’ pockets all over the world. Strange how the common man has to at least try (in these hard times) to live within his budget but governments can spend other people’s money willy nilly. FJB wrote and check to Z, the guy he calls Putin, this week.
