The US govt and majority of it's citizens have been living way beyond their means for decades. All propped up by the petrodollar in the end.

But its not a 5% return if inflation is at 4%.

The scary part isn’t that bonds are suddenly “unsafe.” It’s that the risk-free rate is now forcing every other asset to justify itself. If the government has to pay 5%+ to borrow, then stocks, real estate, corporate debt, mortgages, and even the federal budget all have to reprice around that new reality. This doesn’t feel like a 2008-style overnight collapse. It feels more like a slow squeeze where the free-money era ends, leverage gets punished, and cash flow starts mattering again.

This is what happens when the future of a country is put into the hands of people who won’t live long enough to see the consequences of their actions

When you realize the USA economy is a ponzi scheme.

The market is no longer pricing a temporary inflation shock... it’s questioning the sustainability of fiscal deficits in a higher-rate regime

US voters should demand a law if the deficit more than 3% congressmen won't qualify for re-election

Of course, when I start earning some decent money, everything has to burn down.

The U.S. debt plan is basically: “trust me bro, future us got it” 😂
