  1. Negative real interest rates are irrational and wouldn’t happen without central bank manipulation. Even after all the rate hikes, real rates are still barely positive and below historical real rates. My point is don’t expect rates to go down.

  2. The US Federal government has been averaging trillion dollar plus annual deficits since the great financial crisis. That Ponzi scheme is the only thing keeping the economy from completely crashing. Debt is finite so who knows how much longer we have. The French Revolution happened when debt payments were about 50% of revenue. The US is getting close

  3. Every dollar the US government spends either has to be directly taxed (taken) from someone and/or paid for with inflation (devalued currency). Few people truly understand this.

  4. Yellen is definitely an idiot but I don’t think she’s quite as stupid as she lets on. She’s selling long term bonds because she knows inflation and rates are gonna start back up. Not to mention a a debt saturation point.

  5. Maybe all these fired government workers can learn to weld to help build the keystone pipeline and expansions in Alaska
