the national debt isn't a problem unless people stop buying our bonds, but the sale of US bonds is a self fulfilling prophesy, its why we can sell trillions at basically 0% interest. a worldwide financial meltdown that would be caused by a possible US default actually, paradoxically, ends up making the US the safest place for money, as long as we stay the worlds only super power. this is why ****ing morons who call for US isolationism are basically children who have no clue why they've grown up in the greatest most peaceful place in the history of human existence. Everything on earth is traded in dollars and its done at THE BARREL OF A GUN. (these are the same children who think bitcoin is "unstoppable", it could be stopped, forever, with the flick of a switch) (full disclosure i own and have made 7 figures on crypto but im smart enough to know its a casino game and not a monitary revolution of "currency" that buys NOTHING)
