Please explain how it is broken?

It created the greatest country on earth and one that keeps many countries afloat. Without the USA and it’s money, the world would likely go into despair.

Tell me you don’t know how the world or the economy work without telling me.

Socialism and communism has worked so well that millions flee it for freedom and risk their lives doing it.

The one that's currently about to collapse under the weight of its debt? The one that's about to be overtaken by China?

Socialism isn't communism.

The goalposts have moved so far in this country that this very moderate new mayor is being considered a communist from the lowest IQ group the country has ever seen during a cost of living crisis only rivaled by the great depression

Haven’t you heard? The solution is 50 year mortgages. So the solution is…. Debt forever!

China has been overtaking us for twenty years. Yet the world still uses the dollar when they said it was all going to change to Chinese yen. Glad you can watch CNN!

And do you know how the debt is backed? If you did, you would know that it won’t collapse. Again, people really need to learn economics and our system. Not trying to be a d*** but come on.

Our biggest issue is a government being allowed to keep raising the debt ceiling and not cap it. We should have never allowed a change in the mid 1900’s to allow the government to overspend. It was up to the people to buy up bonds and allow them to spend but not go into debt. The debt is the biggest issue because of interest. We will spend close to 1/4 of our tax revenue on interest payments. That is insanity because of three decades of incompetence from our government.

Red or Blue, it doesn’t matter. Less government the better for everyone’s lives. They are all crooks.

I was referring to the interest on that debt, which is absolutely about to become an issue. And you have far more confidence in the bond market than I do.

Socialism is literally the first step in communism and it’s ultimate goal is communism.

Thank your government for the cost of living crisis. There spending did it. And that’s red and blue.

And calling people stupid when your comment is inherently wrong is pretty funny. Plenty of smart people who vote blue and red. Most are moderate who happen to fall on one side or the other based on a few views.

I know Harvard grads who are die hard Libs and Die hard republicans. Calling people low IQ because of your views is and what’s wrong with this country. No middle ground anymore and there should be.

It literally can’t fail. And no politician would let it. I mean technically it can, but if it does and other areas fail, well game over for our country and the world. Big reset then! Ha

Right. Nothing can possibly go wrong when China, Japan, Saudi, or others choose to no longer buy our debt because we've become hostile to their business interests. And certainly the bond market had nothing to do with Trump backing down over tariffs.

And of course we have no example of any major leader calling others low IQ.

I feel like this is a “I hate Trump” fest. I don’t agree with all the tariffs or some items passed in the BBB.

Guess you loved Biden and his spending which sky rocketed inflation and forced gas over $4 a gallon in months by shutting down the pipeline with one of his first EA.

Truth is blue and red have screwed us all and it makes me laugh when people side so hard with one side. They have both screwed you.

I'm a Reagan Republican. Red looks nothing remotely like that these days.

Inflation was due to Biden? Funny. It was worldwide. No, it was due to the massive amount of stimulus that actually started well before him.

No, it was mostly from 2021-2022 and MiT even studied it and said almost half was because of the current spending. So, yes it was a lot from him. Almost 20% increase in inflation after spending. Those are facts.

Stimulus spending due to COVID. Started during Trump, continued under Biden, and caused worldwide inflation and subsequent supply chain disruptions.

I didn't vote for either. Don't care for either. They both suck.

I feel like people that keep calling this the greatest country on earth only think of dictatorships, or dangerous South American countries lol. There’s several first world countries in a lot healthier place than the United States right now. The rich getting richer is not a solution to fix this country’s issues, that much is obvious atm. But this isn’t the political form and I honestly am on here as a distraction from stuff like this so I’ll just leave it at that.

To be fair, the national debt crossed the $37 trillion mark this August and the $38 trillion mark this October. When I was a kid in the 1980s, it had taken two centuries for the national debt to increase by $1 trillion. Then it eventually started taking only two years. Now, it's only two months. The next train station is two weeks, then two days, then two hours, then two minutes etc. A 50-year mortgage might make more sense than a 30 since Trump the Debtor King, the GOP Republicans (except maybe Massie & MTG), and the Democrats are wanting to inflate the debt and the US dollar. The extra half million might only be the cost equivalent of a loaf of bread three or four decades from now on our current trajectory. 😅
