debt is such a joke, anyone who cares about our debt that much is completely economically illiterate.


a nation can easily run a deficit for its entire history without problems- what matters is debt:gdp. As long as our debt:gdp is not too high and our government appears competent enough to keep up interest payments (this is why its so stupid when republicans try to shut down the government), interests rates will remain low. When interests rates are less than inflation as they are in america, the government is basically getting free money from debt. Debt to GDP has recently stabilized, I have little concern.

>>79768143
>you don't seem to get the current system means you need more debt to pay the interest rates.

the interest we pay on debt is less than inflation. All our debt is constantly getting less valuable. The government is getting free money from debt as long as interest rates remain low (which likely be the case if we continue to have democratic presidents).

>you seem unable to understand the danger of compound rates with a fractional reserve banking system plus a fiat currency.
it sounds like you've watched a lot of scary youtube videos but don't actually know very much. Governments have and can run debts for hundreds of years, as the economic growth and inflation outweigh the growth of debt.
>>
>>79768332
>how that's not gonna make the market to implode.
It did in 2008, thanks to a lot of irresponsible Bush and Clinton policies. However, we recovered; abundant capital is important for economic growth, and credit card debt merely owed to ourselves does not pose an existential crisis.

if you understood economics my point was that higher inflation is GOOD for managing debt (though high inflation has negative effects).

However, while you've posted these chats, I'd like to point out that these are both comically bogus and I have looked into them in the past. The first one literally makes an assumption "well, the feds are probably hiding like 3.5% inflation" and just adds a constant to the official numbers (look at the graph, its literally just offset by a constant factor).

The second graph does a similar brand of fear mongering, but using a linearly growing offset to the official numbers. Of course, neither of these charts actually are connected to reality in any shape of form except for the fact they just arbritrarily do an offset from the official numbers.

Yes but all if not most of modern day inflation can be traced back to the federal reserve and it's the fact that it's not even a federal entity.

ok buddy, I think history knows more than the federal reserve.
Gold has been always used as storage value (money) since the babylonians.

You need to remember one of the definitions of REAL MONEY (money that has value) is scarcity.

Also gold is one of the few natural elements that can serve to make coins and bars, you can't do easily coins with hydrogen, or uranium.

Gold scarcity means a goverment can't infinitelly print it or counterfeit it.

You're a blue pilled retard who instead of listening to the investors who know what money is, listen to their college professor who are dumb as fuck.

Good luck storing your savings with dollars and letting the goverment tax you in terms of inflation.

>ok buddy, I think history knows more than the federal reserve.
>Gold has been always used as storage value (money) since the babylonians.

No. Rome did not use gold as it's main currency and when it did the nominal worth of the money was more than the materials it was made out. That was the case until the collapse of the eastern roman empire.

>You need to remember one of the definitions of REAL MONEY (money that has value) is scarcity.

Yes and that scarcity can be artificially created and almost always was even with gold (temples or governments and later banks stockpiling large amounts of it and only allowing a small amount circulate).

>Gold scarcity means a goverment can't infinitelly print it or counterfeit it.

Which is actually a bad thing. A currency should be able to adapt to the needs of the country, not the other way around. And a gold currency can still be manipulated by the people that have stockpiled large amounts of gold and control its release (banks in the current year).

>You're a blue pilled retard who instead of listening to the investors who know what money is, listen to their college professor who are dumb as fuck.

Not the definition of money taught in college.
Investors have their own interests.

>even a toddler understands monopoly paper (dollar) isn't real money.

Most people have no concept of monetary theory.
Money can be whatever as long as it has a government stamp on it.
Money is worth something because it is backed by the government by different means including taxation and government contracts and of course the law.
Gold is not money, it can however be monetized because it posses qualities which are beneficial to have in a money (scarcity, divisibility, durability,etc).
As for gold has always retained its value see when the Spanish conquered south america or when the roman empire finally collapsed. Gold prices varied wildly in those situations because gold is a commodity affected by supply and demand.

Sounds like you are the one who never got fucking educated you jackass.

More debt is only needed because revenues are too fucking and outgoing credit is too high within the federal budget. If you fixed that then you wouldn't need more debt and could pay down what you fucking owe without fucking over the rates you know, like any proper fucking citizen would.

Since when did people and governments and companies running around with giant living debt bombs become a desirable thing to you fuck sticks?

Fuck of cuck. It could be fixed but it won't be because more debt benefits those who are the creditors, in this case global transnational financial firms and banks that are above the law and seemingly answer to nobody.

And with gold money the money still historically ended up in the hands of the banks/governments through usury.

Compare the progress achieved under commodity based currencies to progress achieved under fiat currencies or the distribution to wealth. If you are not stockpiling money inflation is in most cases a positive for you. Unless of course you live in a country where the monetary system is not functioning efficiently.

Going to them for economic advise is like looking to a psych ward to develop your philosophy.

There is basically 0 evidence that hyperinflation is going to occur.

The only real threat is if the people who are buying up the debt stop doing so because of predictions of deflation and it spirals out of control.

i don't even know if thats true that humans lived for centuries when inflation was at 0(in fact im pretty sure it isn't cause i read the diary of some spanish king who was bitching about it but he didn't know what it was, he was just mad that all his gold became worthless). But thats a pretty shitty example for something we should do.

Again, if you took any kind of economics class you'd know that until the industrial revolution the wealth of the average person more or less stayed the same across nations and time periods for thousands of years.

The only thing that increases the wealth of a nation in the long run is total factor productivity increases. What you conspiritards don't seem to understand is that the only thing that makes a rich country poor is when they do things like block effective technology from being implemented or the government makes stupid restricting types of regulations. Even when countries are decimated by war and hyperinflation they recover quickly as long as the government is letting them.

Things like inflation only affect business cycles which are temporary.

Gold could go up, not denying that, that does not however as I said make it money, it is still a commodity.
That does not make it money. Buying stocks of gold mining companies still relies on the system functioning which would not be the case in your total collapse scenario.
If I were to believe in what you were saying I would be buying physical gold and hide it somewhere, not buying stocks which require a functioning law system to use, like money.

Money is never a good thing to store your money for long periods of time. You are better off investing it in something, gold can be such an investment if you have reasons to believe it will be worth more later.

>you know chinese are hoarding gold like crazy, right?
>expect soon the dollar not being the global reserve.

Hoarding gold is far from being the only thing china needs to do. They would need to catch up militarily and technologically which will take decades even if you consider that they have already caught up economically (which in my opinion they have not).

my argument is scarcity drives innovation which promotes efficiency. And if you look at history its true, when things start to become too expensive to use people invent a similar alternative, or switch to one that already exists. It's happening with coal and natural gas right now.

And we are running ZIRP just to finance it. The fact is, people just don't want to face the mathematical certainty that this debt-is-money system will fail. Start paying it off, and you reduce the M2 money supply, which impedes the ability to further pay it off. The total debt in the US is something like $60 Trillion. Total M2 money is something like $12 trillion. That discrepancy is due to interest. The USD is a Ponzi scheme.

>>
>>79784565
do you even know how technology works or have any idea how big the earth really is?

The main resources that we consume are energy ones, and as i stated there are ways in which you can get practically infinite energy because by the time they dry up humans will be dead anyway. The only reason we don't use them now is because they aren't cost efficient, but when we start running out of oil, coal and natural gas guess what theyll be cost efficient.

Nuclear, geothermal, hydroelectric and solar power are all ways of getting practically infinite energy.

If you think we are going to run out of metals like iron i think you need to actually look at how much iron is out there. Some resources are so fucking dirt cheap that its more cost efficient to throw them away and buy new ones than it is to re-use them. And when it doesn't become cost efficient to do that guess what PEOPLE WILL STOP DOING IT.

Yes (as well as the best universities, military production, research and development,etc) and in the current system that is what matters and the current system is unlikely to change as long as the USD remains the international currency which as I've said will stay that way for as long as the US maintains military and technological superiority.
