Quoting: Anonymous Coward 61295752 Four years of Trump's reckless spending is the cause of all the inflation The POTUS and Executive Branch does not legislate federal budget spending. The House of Congress enacts federal budget spending which is approved by the Senate and then approved or vetoed by POTUS. A budgetary deficit or a surplus budget has nothing to do with the national debt. There is no balanced budget law. The national debt will never be paid off or paid down. It isn't intended to be paid off or paid down. It is fiat funny money that is only as real as people believe it has value. Riiight they just mint platinum coins and say they are worth 1 trillion USD to go around congress or sue aaaalleexxxjjjjjjonesssss for it. |

That is not 50 years down the road, it is NOW with the retirement of the baby boom and every penny of the trust fund has been "loaned" out.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 61295752 Four years of Trump's reckless spending is the cause of all the inflation you have to spend money to make MAGA and achieve all this winning. he can spend even more to do the draining of the swamp and locking hillary up when he wins 2024. its going to be even more wonderful. i cant wait for more winning. you sound like a sucker. trump didn't drain the swamp when he was president and he didn't lock hillary up. you sound dumb when you state he will do it the next time he gets into office. The Trump supporters will support him until they are gone. Without question. Even though he sold all of us Americans down the River for a quick buck and became the Father of the Vaccine. Anyone thinking Trump isn’t part of the whole Elitist game is a clown. It’s not TDS, it’s called not being a complete buffoon and learning from the past. By HIS Grace Alone. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 61295752 Four years of Trump's reckless spending is the cause of all the inflation Are people really this ignorant? In 1933 our national debt was $22 billion but FDR wanted to be free of gold backing our currency (debt) so he detached the dollar from gold. If you assume a rate of debt expansion by 8.5% a year, we would have a total debt of $22B(1+0.085)^(2022-1933) = $31,310 billion or $31.3 trillion which is about what it is. This means that our total debt doubles every 8.5 years (1+0.085)^8.5 = 2 |

That's only three $20 gold coins.
