I would speculate in green ink and silk threaded paper. The Treasury is going to need a lot more with the money printing presses running at full tilt.

I am no genius economist, and I hope someone will correct me if I am wrong, but it seems the pathetic BOASTING that some of the leftists do about the yearly deficit “shrinking” over the past seven years is NOT because of decreased government spending “per se” but because of the low interest rates that have been keeping the outlays on that portion of the budget lower....

In other words, the economy has been so bad that interest rates have been kept down—which means the interest payments on our debt (which continues to rise) have not risen as fast as they would in a “normal” economy.

Hope that makes sense.
