Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

The problem is 10 yr Treasury bonds are very close to the dealty spiral rate because of our debt. So we are choosing hyper inflation vs bankruptcy.
The only way out is this is to pay back the debt 10 years ago
the real way out was to not have reagan erra voodoo economics become the way to go.
TBF to Reagan 🤮 it was the Nixon Shock that established the debt-based economy we have today.
Yeah its not like we did not have debt but reagan normailzed it as being fine.
That and Clinton's nfta. That really killed American manufacturing.
yeah but in regards to debt his party use to be universally against it and he "proved" deficits don't matter and they switched to against it only if its not us doing it.

Edit: downvoters, just check this idiot's profile.
You might have room temp IQ, and that is ok. Very reactive monkey brain.
You're cool with this and him pouring billions into installing fascists around the world but sure man that makes me a moron.
Zero people buy what you're selling here. You'll be banned within hours. Enjoy that, magat nazi.
I buy it -- at what point did he imply he's MAGA? What he said is a statement on the reality of the nation's finances. Can you please be a little more civil?
Let me know if you're cool with this ^
More fascism throughout his comment history too.
Hell yeah
I guess you just told me you're also a Nazi sympathizer too since you asked me to be civil to a Nazi who just directly called me intellectually disabled as an insult.
Okay, okay, Jesus Christ, he's not a good person and you have receipts. I concede.
Glad to see you can acknowledge. So I was probably wrong with the Nazi comment against you and I apologize for that.
Ty! 😊
I never said i was ok with it, and I'm not selling anything.
