I think the US Debt is too far gone now.
It can't realistically be fixed.
Raising taxes - Not happening
Cutting spending - Also not happening

Why even talk about it
Its practically a dead horse
Just allow the inevitable disaster to unfold.

spending never gets cut, so its never part of any alternative

when the alternative is Comrade Kamala Harris raising taxes on hardworking Americans and inflating all the prices, then smart people would rather choose the former

What we have in the US is party based political warfare.

You are given power over the treasury and your answer is to say 'nah we won't spend any money'... doesn't really work as a strategy when your opponents are all spending money and gaining political influence from doing so

>>541160396
why is cutting taxes calculated in the deficit?
i mean, i get why since there's less money to spend and more debt on credit, but why is this deficit even talked about?
why is government spending included in GDP?
government spending is literally just taxes, so you make money, which is actual economic growth, then you take 30% of that, and spend it...which isn't economic growth, its just spending money made from economic growth...so you are just double counting 30% of genuine economic growth

obviously, lower taxes is beneficial to the economy

is there a non retarded metric that can be used to judge economic health?
>>
>>541161018
Only because of Republican-dominated legislature trying to fuck him over. It didn't work, and they're never going to do it again. People would rather pay the inflation tax they can control than the mafia tax they can't

Maybe the deficit is the future ways to control usa they will be dependent on forgine aid to buy the debit.

Talking about debt/deficits in the US in 2026 is basically just making fun of goyim dumb enough to still think any of that bullshit genuinely matters. Massie is a narrative foil cast by the same people who made this mess in the first place. This is just another joke at your place expense, but you'll praise this slimy fucking coward anyway.
>>
>>541160977
Securities buy backs are basically liquidity injections. They exchange securities for money and the “system” gets more money when its liquidity constrained. It’s ironic because it’s always basically just a bank bailout since they can just issue credit without reserves.
>>
>>541161264
There's nothing wrong with it, until it's in the hands of the completely corrupt or even worse the completely deliberately destructive. There's no way in hell IMO that any of the western nations need to run such huge deficits, Australia's was also completely corrupt and brought on by the covid hoax and our happy clapper treasonour PM handing out hundreds of billions.

When your only product is sleazy financial fuckery and a promise that "line go up", it's only a matter of time. America is over, it's just gonna take a while for people to start feeling it. America is huge and propelled by inertia from WW2. It's now brown, broke, toothless and culturally devoid.
>>
>>541160835
You are completely right.
But we're trying to play it as straight as we can and make somewhat of an effort, just for show.

And the rest of the world can bitch, but what are they gonna do? Come get their money? Them and what army?

Fact is, the world is scared of America, and you fucking should be. You niggers need to get your shit together enough to actually scare us. Maybe then we'd respect you, and make a genuine effort to pay off our debts.

In short

It's just jargon to disguise the fact that banks are moving money around between each other to create the illusion of prosperity and functionality while the actual economy craters. Financialization is the most Hebrew process imaginable.

I think AI will actually be so big though that it dwarfs the current debt in terms of productivity growth.

It's bigger than the industrial revolution. It's huge, you don't understand.

nope. it's all subjective bullshit in the moment, and only objective analysis after an event which is then determine to have been good or bad; and whether or not there is still an active effect of said event. Social sciences aren't true sciences, observational speculations more than anything.

Everybod understands basic economics (except commies). The problem is that they are paid very well by interest grouos to do the opposite.

Yes but this is only being done because long term bond yields are mooning, when this shuffle fuck doesn't work the printer is going to go brrrr.

Wasn't speaking to you and don't care about the AI fad. That's for surveillance and brainwashing the masses.

Of course they'll spend tons of money on it. It's not my money.

>Spending was cut under Clinton
yes and infrastructure began to crumble in the years and decades following. public services declined and cities fell into deep disinvestment. you do actually have to spend money to invest in your citizens for the long term.
>>
Every thread on this board that deals with the national "debt", the deficit, etc. no matter which political point or party it is trying to support and/or needle, is almost always entirely wrong because this board doesn't (or doesn't want to) understand the difference between a currency issuer and a currency user.

Why don't you think about this for about two seconds?

Why would the government need money from you? Where did you get it from?

I agree in theory. AI is a logic machine that reads the material and masters it, being able to answer questions and quickly do tasks that'd take humans hours.
However, there's a problem. AI can't and won't be used for thos because if it is, it will expose all of the corruption and useless bullshit that permeates everything. If we had an AI that was running numbers and keep track of the national budget, we would also be able to locate and find out who and where money is being siphoned. It would also cut down on bureaucracy because it would be able to send, recieve, and process "paperwork" exponentially faster than humans could and with better and higher accuracy. It would cut down on processing time dramatically. That won't do. If that happens, niggers and women are out of jobs, the system would be auditable, laws could be processed and made with 0 loopholes (putting lawyers out of a job), and medicine wouldn't need as many doctors.
People pretend to want it, but they don't. In America, we're only "racing" because China is doing it. We don't actually plan to use it for the correct use cases at all.
I know this because I work for a massive Healthcare provider. I am hired to do data entry for nurses because the managers don't want to. As someone doing it, I can tell you right now that AI could and honestly should replace the managers and administrators at the hospital. Things would move faster with either the same or better accuracy and save a shitton of money because these 6 figure jobs wouldnt exist, but it would cause all of the higher ups being removed.
They refuse to implement it, even for my use case. I made a fucking presentation just for my job, and I got a shitton of blowback, all making ridiculous claims of why we shouldn't use an AI that was developed in network and remains in network.
AI could be great. It won't be because of goy brained goy cattle.

Repugs do understand basic economics, but they only care about making the rich richer, they dont give a shit about jobs or helping the poor, that is why they push the bullshit that 'tax cuts pay for themselves, tax cuts create jobs' when all tax cuts really do is make the rich richer, its not rocket surgery, but tards still argue about this simple fact

Did you seriously think libtards will do something about the ballooning debt? If anything, they'll inflate the debt even more and tax you even higher. You'll get California style spending billions on projects that are never achieved and is just corruption hiding in plain daylight. Only a libtard would fall for that and claim it's somehow 'better'.

a lot of this is rightoids masquerading as libs. they will come in to slow down something like a rail project and say "we need more studies though because of the trees and to make sure we're serving the right people" or some other nonsense. then some independent group gets $900k to perform said study which takes 4 years. then momentum is lost, they find some reason to stop all progress. then you come to find out that the people calling for the study are donating to a GOP politician in the next local election that is vowing to kill the project with no other plan.
>>
>>541168496
glad people are starting to figure out conservatives engage in false flags, mostly from the most niche and etxreme shitlibbery, to reinforce parasitic rents.
>>
>>541168496
Oh yeah bro the California high speed rail project faiked because those damn conservatives have so much power in California.
