“US Empire now pays half a trillion dollars in interest payments per year to service its debt. US debt increases by a trillion per year. It’s a death spiral that cannot be undone. Self-destruction and USD collapse are unavoidable. Get out of USD and US stocks. Buy gold & crypto.”

Except the whole world will not always bow to the dollar. China has many things in development to get the global financial institutions to rely on more than the dollar. Long term goal for them is to take down US and have their own globally accepted reserve currency.

All that money spent servicing debt could be used to fund the military or finance a tax cut, though.

If the U.S would stop sending millions of dollars over seas each year for so called "Humanitarian" reasons and stop telling other countries what to do then maybe that debt would not be so high and could actually start shrinking.

we owe the money to a printing press. Why cant we just not pay it back? Its not like a real debt to an actual financial entity.

In normal loans 2 things happen that incentivize you to pay loans back: they wont loan you any more, and they take your stuff. The fed cant take america, and we can just sieze the printing press for ourselves. Give the treasury the power to print money again.

So really we dont have to pay it back and the debt isnt really real. Its a made up concept.

>> No.11559151

Something I don't get; the treasury prints money, ok, just tell them to crank it up. Long as they got paper they'll be ok. The dollar ain't backed by anything really anymore, ex.100 dollars = 1 little nugget of gold. If it was we'd be in the shit long ago cause there just ain't enough gold on hand to cover it all. Just an example. Another thing; if we owe so much money to other countries what's keeping them from just one day saying " ok time to pay up". Banks do it all the time to the common cuck, why can't they just do it to us?

The printing press is the jews. We would need non-corrupt politicians to do what you’re suggesting. And when I say WE, I mean America. If another country tries to do it, America will freedom-ize them. The only single person with the charisma to call for such a thing is Trump, and hey whaddaya know his kids are married into the jewish mafia. Even if he DOES try to issue debt-free currency, the last few people I can think of who did that were Ghaddafi, Hitler, and Lincoln, and look what happened to them.

Ok to the people in this thread THAT ACTUALLY READ THE ARTICLE.

if you had gained a windfall slush fund that could only be rolled over into investing of 10 thousand USD what would you invest in for a balanced portfolio?

Personally I would get a bitcoin, 2k in longterm mutual funds, 2k in etfs for dividends, and then the change in some stocks.

What would you do /biz/ you get 10K and it has to be rolled into accounts and can't be immediately withdrawn I wont say until retirement but lets say for at least a 8 year period.

china isn't directly lending us "money", right?
they are buying us treasury notes which keeps those yields low and maintains faith in the us economy. money is created out of thin air using cotton/paper/linen raw materials then pumped back into the system to pay workers. money is created by the fed/treasury and lent back out. it's all a very circular system. we don't really get what's going on but clearly there's an imbalance.
