Whether planned or not (they've at least been planning FOR this inevitable situation) it seems like the US is headed for a real sovereign debt crisis.
They've been spending like drunken sailors in "peace time" for decades now and now we're sitting at record debt to GDP levels in a nasty stagflation period, and to top it all off several trillion dollars of debt needs to get refinanced at higher interest rates than before. Debt interest payments are already too high, nearly the amount of the military budget.
Central banks around the globe have been stock piling gold and driving up the price. Even large firms like Blackrock came out recommending and buying gold in 2024 and 2025 https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/insights/stay-long-gold. These firms are revaluing their price targets for gold to gold bug levels for the coming years.
Add to this multiple billionaires warning about the debt crisis. Billionaire Jamie Dimon is issuing strong warnings about the bond market and the market in general.
'You are going to see a crack in the bond market. It is going to happen,' Dimon told the economic forum, predicting it could appear in six months to six years. 'I'm telling you it's going to happen, and you're going to panic. I'm not going to panic." https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14766139/jamie-dimon-warning-trade-china-enemy-within.html
All that points to a real sovereign debt crisis for the USA, which you can bet your bottom dollar TPTB will take full advantage of.
There can be no debt crisis. They literally print the currency themselves. They can do whatever the fuck they want.
I'm sure Argentina's government said the same thing. And Venezuela's said "we pump the oil, we can do what we want".
USD being the reserve currency is only a temporary get out of jail free card. Forever low interest rates are just not an option.
80 years and counting.
Why? Math doesn’t exist. Economics doesn’t exist. Number go up. You really don’t seem to understand this. We have never, ever, had any situation like this before in human history. It has never happened. Every single currency is identical and part of the same system. Worldwide. All of them. It cannot collapse because it is based solely on itself. Numbers do not matter. Percentages do not matter. It’s literally all a hoax. They type numbers into a computer and suddenly they’re not in debt anymore. No one can say or do anything about it because there is no external system against which the economic system can be measured against.
They won a long, long time ago.
