> debt ceiling donald trump really isn't a poster child for good credit.. in fact, he's the opposite.. he's the profile of businessperson who is most likely to not pay you.. as well as take on debt that he has no real intention of paying back, absent the complete total success of his plans.. so, i'm really not optimistic about this.. if anything, it will drive interest rates up, which is a good thing for savers.. but that's on debt that's derived from treasuries.. if some bank wants to give me a better deal on a savings acct, that deal has at least some relationship to the treasury market.. it really just kind cascades downward, this loss of confidence in replevin.. see? what incentive does a bank have to pay me when the bonds on their books are also not paying? .. i could buy gold and silver i suppose.. but i can't sell it back to the system without getting fucked for it.. nor can i use it as money, except locally, and sparsely at that.. am i seriously gonna give the lady that cuts my hair some silver quarters? you guys are idiots, aren't you? .. if i could use that god damned silver for anything at all, other than a door stop, i'd love nothing more than to buy it today.. but i can't do it.. i wanna do it. i can't do it.. can't spend it.. no wonder all the capital is flowing into crypto.. and all the transactional technology and entrprenuership.. it's all in crypto.. that's why your bank sucks.. the guys that worked there aren't there anymore.. so borrow away, donald.. just don't borrow nothing from me
