Bingo. You nailed it. Traditional economic models are in the process of being disproven, which is more or less like the Law of Gravity being repealed.

You’re right. Artificially low interest is the future. Can you imagine if rates hit 22% as they did on July 22, 1981? What is the daily interest on $23 trillion at 22%?
