People misunderestimate just how long a modern government can keep their balls in the air. In the old days it was just a keen eye and quick responses. Now with computers it is all forecasting where their balls will be at any given moment in the future. This will lead to overconfidence of course, so it will take longer, but be bigger when it happens. Their balls will be crushed!
I agree completely.
On that same note, I constantly underestimate the timeframes. The government always drags out the inevitable longer than I think they will. You would think by now I would learn to adjust my predictions knowing how good they are at delaying the inevitable consequences. I don’t. I still expect things to occur too fast.
But you are right. They will delay and the crash will be larger as a result.
