If minting a 1 trillion dollar platinum coin is the end point of Obama economic policy that has failed to produce real wealth, then the Administration will have jumped the shark and be laughed out of office. Chinese must be really happy holding 2 trillion in treasury notes and just can’t wait to trade them in for two of those coins. Delusional and comical , but emblematic of a declining America that consumes more than it produces.
In order for laughter to ensue, the audience needs to comprehend the joke. The end result will be much like an obscure, highbrow Dennis Miller joke.
