My calculator states that the interest in 20T @ 3 percent is 600 billion annually in debt service.
LOL. Superior luck with that.
The thing is there’s not enough cash to payoff all of the debt. That is because the banksters don’t make money to symbolize the interest component of loans, as they don’t want cash in circulation that does not pay them interest.
. . .that a single day, debt does not exist.
. . .where each time that a .gov do-gooder politicians wants to fire up a new app, or build a new bridge, etc.. .that your taxes have to go up instantly to cover for that program.
. . .you desire 3 fresh Aircraft Carriers. . .then an additional $23 from each of your paychecks for the subsequent 12 years.
. . .you want universal free healthcare. . .then an additional $273 from each pay check….forever.
. . .you want to build a new soccer stadium. . .then an additional $74 from each paycheck for another 10 years.
Then, allow the people vote for all these apps. 90% percent of each program the politicians propose would get shut down immediately if we had to observe the paycheck implications of .gov spending.

Sure, that works. However, if you are among those 62% of Americans who actually have jobs you are going to be quite pissed about having to pay for all while the other 38% gets it at No Cost. I am delighted to have used people pay for my share of this debt and purge every thing for me mentioned each person in the 38 percent.
On the other hand, if we aren’t making employed people pay for what, who is gonna take action?
BTW, do we all agree to discontinue with the BS unemployment rate and start having a count of working full and part time people rather?

Only works when only people who’ve paychecks to vote. That’s only about 1/3 of those voters in the us so very good luck voting down more “freebies”.

To say nothing of the 30 year multi-trillion dollar bond bubble bursting, you know that will leave a mark. Uncertain what everyone’s plan B appears like however owing tens of thousands of dollars going to the jaws of a large depression isn’t going to be pretty. Going for a lot of people learning or re-learning the way to suck penis, imo.

However, as stated by the anglozionazi model of rigged market “capitalism” debt is riches and liberty is slavery and imitation news is accurate.
Sid DavisFour Star Jan 4, 2018 4:00 PM
So this is the deal; the normal New Yorker or average person anywhere can’t fork over his share to cover debt. And because the authorities can simply get cash from taxpayers, either by tax or by printing money, the debt can’t be paid, not today or ever.
Government debt as 1900 has grown at a more moderate rate of 8.5% in order another 8 or nine years it will double. And that does not contain the unfunded obligations. However, the market only grows at about 3 percent in the best, or so the wealth to cover the debt is not keeping up with the growth in the debt. As time goes, the debt becomes much less likely to be compensated because it turns into a greater burden.
Default in some type is a certainty. The only real question is who will be left holding the empty bag. Can any authorities suffer a default on its debt, and the related financial meltdown? I doubt it.
Here is the dictionary definition of “politician”:
: a person experienced in the art or science of government; especially : one actively engaged in running the business of some government
Two a : a person engaged in celebration as a profession
B frequently disparaging : per person primarily interested in workplace for selfish or other slim usually short-sighted factors

For the wheel to continue turning or a greater example, for the ponzi scheme to continue you require many fresh folks, nevertheless trump halted new folks from coming into the country in very large amounts as desired , he threw a monkey wrench in that major wheel of credit quitting it cold.
Now you understand why the two parties desired to legalize all of the illegals adding fresh 20 million newcomers into the credit market to continue the ponzi scheme.

“One thing is certain we’re leaving future generations giant shit sandwich down.”
1 solution is for a subset to secede. They then get to develop into another country, and all of that debt gets stuck on the folks who remain. The very same folks who view the Fed Gov as the answer to all.
Another solution would be to split it away, Zimbabwe/Weimar design.

That’s probably what 80% of those “students” who are taking out student loans are believing.
The majority of them have absolutely no intention of paying off the loan back.

As long as we could keep debt over the boundaries of charts it should be okay. Otherwise, create the charts larger. It is really just an occasional slight extension of a red pen line, what is the big price, direct is cheap? Might be a fantastic idea if we don’t keep up with it, it merely gives people headaches, so it’s in the past anyway?
AlphaSeraph Jan 4, 2018 4:18 PM
Not quite. The Chinese are playing with the super long game. The income/cash generated from Treasury holdings is now really a facade. Nixon’s EPA was made for one reason and one reason only. To grab valuable land and post it as security to the Oriental (mostly – there are several other foreign entities included) for the debt (suck on it enviro-nazis, the EPA does not shield shit).
The Chinese are using America as their bitch to develop their manufacturing (assess), purchase gold with both palms nonstop (assess) and to get title to land all around the world and America (assess).
The income they produce is a bonus. What they actually want is all of the aforementioned and to be the strong hand of leverage.

I distinctly remember when Karl Denninger trotted outside the ‘mathematics’ thing, back in 2009 on the Economy Ticker. He was sorta out ahead at the time with that meme, and rather outspoken about it too. Thing is however, much like that which public education has done to mathematics, history and science, it sorta does not matter, does it…? And it sure has made Lots of otherwise smart guys to seem sorta – well, you know… It has all been changed into a feel-good illusion.
Will actual math (vs. the common-idiot number), ever make a comeback…?

Keep in mind here people, the US$ worth of all
Bills and coins in circulation in all issueing
Gov’ts net is around $7.6Trillion.
Everything is “notional” value. Keep that
$7.6Trillion figure in your mind everytime someone
Discusses GDP/ debt/ M2/ M3/ gov’t paying…
Ron_MexicoIn.Sip.ient Jan 4, 2018 5:07 PM
So, subsequently, everything beyond the 7.6 trillion can be considered as “rehypothecated” cash, or “IOUs”. The lowest line using IOUs is if it is possible to collect them.

Right now, it’s about getting the US market up and running again and again on all tanks. Energy dominance is important to everything. There’s a great deal of shit to eat but with a yield of a strong US market, somebody else will probably be eating most of it. I hope the “celebration of Davos” will eat a large chunk of it jointly with China and all of those autonomous wealth funding. We can handle the rest following the crooked globalist Masters of the Universe are bankrupted.
So who will finance their wars? Who cares!!!!! It will not be our problem anymore!!!
Sonny Brakes Jan 4, 2018 4:46 PM
Does that imply debt repayment is optional? My experience was that failure to repay debts incurred results in hardship to the debtor. I avoid with debt, but using a heap of fiat currency sitting in the bank is largely useless.
Pasadena PhilSonny Brakes Jan 4, 2018 4:55 PM
Much of the debt is collateralized. Default about the debt, your resources are captured. The normalized marketplace subsequently reprices those resources to reality. I have zero debt. I’ll still get hurt when prices of what tumbles but that I have things that are crucial. I’ll be fine as long as I endure the “stunt invasion”. Yeah, I’ll be fine.

Funding is insignificant and matters not. It is different this time. That’s the message in the politicians, markets and participants. Tax cuts pay for themselves (they don’t), leverage does not matter (it does) and the increased costs of servicing the debt as a result of increasing rates will likely be offset by fanciful real wage growth to return (they wont).
However, the calmest market waters in history continue to maintain these illusions alive as asset prices maintain levitating in record to record.
Funding does issue and it has been left to Janet Yellen to voice any remnant concerns regarding the sustainability of debt to GDP: “It is the type of thing that should keep people awake at night” .
After all of the debt burden has never been higher and rates, after years of enabling the biggest debt growth in history, are beginning to rise in the united states. In the bigger historic context rates are still low, but let’s be clear, they’re climbing:
And with increasing rates come inquiries of the sustainability of servicing incredibly high debt loads.
The global equity rally because the early 2016 lows has caused a large gain in the market capitalization of global asset prices which have increased by more than 25 trillion in value since then. As mentioned in my US market capitalization is currently north of 143% of US GDP.
Low prices and free cash in type of global QE and today US tax cuts make it all possible and result free. However, is it?
Let us take a look at the leveraging game over the previous 2 years as this is when the most recent rally started. And notice in most cases we don’t have full 2017 data however so I am employing the running 2 year data where I will pull it. The trend is the same: Up, up and away.
Federal debt has increased by $2.1 billion. Different management, same effect and tax cuts will likely render a revenue source gap in the long term funding and will include Additional :
Business debt has increased by more than568B during the Exact Same interval:
Household debt has increased by $364B:
Revolving debt, you already realize the one subject to higher prices, is currently exceeding $1 trillion, around $100B in under 2 years:
Student loans continue to expand unabated, up by another $166B:
And customer loans credit cards at commercial banks will be up by another $100B because the February 2016 prices alone:
We don’t have full year end data however, but there are indications about how the :
“Shoppers in the U.S. frees up an average of $1,054 of debt this Christmas season — an increase of 5 percent over previous year — 44 percent of shoppers rallied more than $1,000 in holiday debt, and 5 percent gathered greater than $5,000 in debt.”
So you find a solid portion of the GDP growth you are viewing is debt spending related. It is not quite as natural as it may seem. US government deficit spending filters its way to GDP as far as customer debt spending.
How will consumers deal with all these gains? It is a good question as actual disposable income is up only $382 per capita over the Exact Same time period:
And private interest obligations keep climbing while the private savings rate keeps dropping:
One more nugget: refinancing debt in stock exchange accounts has improved by a because the February 2016 lows and currently stands at over $580B. Graphically this resembles that:
The Fed say they are devoted to reducing their balance sheet also will continue to raise rates.
Wall Street is projecting for your 10 year rate to move into :
They have tried this prediction a few times earlier, but it’s never materialized. Maybe it will and, if it can, here are a couple of Important questions looking at a 30 year chart:
What is the breaking a 30 year downward trend in the 10 year do equity prices that seem to have been completely determined by said downward trend?
And how will consumers sustain their debt driven spending habits as the burdens of ever higher interest payments aren’t a theoretical construct but also a fact knocking on the door?
The waters are calm, but they mask the actual danger of the debt under and that is The math does not work.
