I KNEW IT! Rand Paul confirms compounding DEBT happening
Well, just head what Rand was saying on the floor. FUCK HE'S SO RIGHT, because years ago I studied the rate of debt accumulation that was happening nearing 1 million a minute, and it's been slow to ramp up, but the compounding effects are going to start to happen. When he said we're close to the 2 million a minute mark, this means debt is growing faster exponentially. In other words the whole process in speeding up, and shorter intervals that give margin to put it off. That 2 WILL EVENTUALLY go to 4 a minute even faster now, and doubling by the factor of exponents until out of control. It's less and less time to figure out, more needed increases, which leads to default or out right hyperinflation. The rate of spending will tell you how close to hyperinflation spark it is. I thought it would be much less than 20 trillion by the way John Willams was speaking, but not up to 30 trillion total. I think in between 5 trillion more factors in numbers will kick in and it begins and mathematical forces take over at that point. Maybe it can reach 30 trillion, but at some point the factors and exponents are the drivers in debt.

We went past the point of no return long ago (2008). Everything is on auto pilot now.

The crash is a certainty now. It is not a question of "if" but "when". No one knows exactly when but it will be soon because the whole house of cads is unsustainable.

The wealth of this nation has been sucked out by the Chosen Ones.

Ron Paul bringing up the WALL without anyone asking about it. It was surreal at the time because i never heard any talk about a wall ever. I always wondered why he used his time to make such a seemingly controversial statement.

Then Trump began his WALL campaign and I nearly lost it.

Rand made better inroads in the cycle to be better prepared, looks more prominent than before by taking the stances he has done.

 Quoting: Rebel4contarian


IF this theory is true for fiat currencies as our monetary / economic system, then it is on its face, redundant and obsolete.

To place an economic stumbling block capable of crashing an economic system, in the form of debt, is so unjust, it's not even funny.

See this is the entire problem. The debt-based fiat monetary system is defunct by design and the ultimate-end of any system based-on and in-debt, is debt.

On it's face it's a redundant and ridiculous system -- debt-based. It's rigged to fail, and it will -- just look at the rewards -- debt!

One might assume that a credit-based or precious metal-based system would be more adequate and fair...

This is just lunacy using a debt-based system.

Re: I KNEW IT! Rand Paul confirms compounding DEBT happening
It may be true about the debt but you have to take into account that there are things here in the United States that have not been done in almost 50 years.
We have to take care of our infrastructure, that is a must.
We have to take care of our military in this critically dangerous point in time.
This must be done, just because the last 5 or 6 Presidents didn't do it doesn't mean it doesn't need to be taken care of it is critical.
Paul talks about the Republicans being hypocrites because they are having to spend so much with the budget but most of it cannot be helped.
There is a stark difference between the money spent by Obama and money going to be spent by Trump.

Obama used most of the money for social programs and sending it overseas to back up our troops...cough cough..or shall i say the terrorists. He let our military go without so he could feed all the illegal aliens and refugees he was letting into our country at our expense, for more voters for the Democrats.

Trump is spending most of this money for things the country sorely needs like military, our decaying infrastructure and our veterans.
I mean when all those past Presidents kicked the can down the road ...on these issues...eventually someone would have to take it up...and that happened to be Trump.

Re: I KNEW IT! Rand Paul confirms compounding DEBT happening
Umm yah the government has consistently increased the national debt around 8.5% a year, every year since 1932.

In the beginning it doesn't seem that bad, but as all exponential functions do, it begins to increase more rapidly until it finally reaches an asymptotic vertical line.

We are very close to the point where the debt goes asymptotic.

I agree Rand Paul didn't quite have the top dog personality to win..even without Trump running..(def would of beat Jeb)..so hopefully he is seasoned now and took a lesson from Trump.

That's kinda why I think Trump was the elites 'Trump Card'. I will change my tune if mass arrests begin. But police state and continuing economic collapse is about all Trump has 'accomplished' in 2 years.

It would be perfect to watch Trump arrest the political criminals and then set the stage for a true constitutional government.

But increasing our debt now when we're on the precipice is not what I expected of Trump. It appears just as likely Trump brings the collapse before he brings the arrests. Which might be the agenda all along.

I believe Rand would be tougher than Trump against the swamp. He could read the law on live tv.and explain why vast amount of politicians are being investigated.

Constitution is not something Trump speaks of often and certainly isn't abiding by it as president.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76231912


Manages the debt how exactly? The more debt there is, the more the future is enslaved to servicing what has been consumed in the past.

That's debt if you take out a loan for $100,000 to go on a trip around the world then you spend the next 10 years paying off the debt and there is no benefit. If you take that $100,000 and buy power tools you can build a cabin or a boat or something worthwhile.

I guarantee you most of the debt the Bank of Japan is issuing is going straight into supporting past debt and wasted spending just like the United States and every other developed economy in the world.

The swamp battle always seems 50/50. Each side..left or right...seems to walk away from each revelation as if it.bolsters they're side.

His lack of constitutional principals has always been q concern.

And surrounding himself with bankers was very swamp like.

Bolstering the police military surplus equipment.goes.against.posse comitatus. Etc.

After Ron Paul, Trump seems like Elite Coop.

Rand Paul is addressing the real issue of limiting government.

Trump is WWF swamp vs Trump. It's not going anywhere and the major issues are continuing to destroy this country.

We have to take care of our military in this critically dangerous point in time.
This must be done, just because the last 5 or 6 Presidents didn't do it doesn't mean it doesn't need to be taken care of it is critical.
Paul talks about the Republicans being hypocrites because they are having to spend so much with the budget but most of it cannot be helped.
There is a stark difference between the money spent by Obama and money going to be spent by Trump.

Obama used most of the money for social programs and sending it overseas to back up our troops...cough cough..or shall i say the terrorists. He let our military go without so he could feed all the illegal aliens and refugees he was letting into our country at our expense, for more voters for the Democrats.

Trump is spending most of this money for things the country sorely needs like military, our decaying infrastructure and our veterans.
I mean when all those past Presidents kicked the can down the road ...on these issues...eventually someone would have to take it up...and that happened to be Trump.

Congress spends our money. Not Trump. Watch Rand Paul's speech.

Democrates got everything they wanted and so did the Republicans. No one knows what they spent it in because no one read it. Not even Trump.

Aka..2 years in and NOTHING has changed.

Rand Paul is trying to make REAL SOLUTIONS a talking point.

Maybe Trump will promote Constitutional Goverment.

Re: I KNEW IT! Rand Paul confirms compounding DEBT happening
Umm yah the government has consistently increased the national debt around 8.5% a year, every year since 1932.

In the beginning it doesn't seem that bad, but as all exponential functions do, it begins to increase more rapidly until it finally reaches an asymptotic vertical line.

We are very close to the point where the debt goes asymptotic.

Japan manages much more debt, but then the interest rates are also much lower.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76231912


Manages the debt how exactly? The more debt there is, the more the future is enslaved to servicing what has been consumed in the past.

That's debt if you take out a loan for $100,000 to go on a trip around the world then you spend the next 10 years paying off the debt and there is no benefit. If you take that $100,000 and buy power tools you can build a cabin or a boat or something worthwhile.

I guarantee you most of the debt the Bank of Japan is issuing is going straight into supporting past debt and wasted spending just like the United States and every other developed economy in the world.

You Keynesians will see the day when people break down your door in the middle of the night and take you outside to hang from lampposts.

I am not a Keynsian. It's just a fact, that Japan has much more debt.

Interest rates have even been negative (not sure if they are still now).
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76231912


Sure seems like you are a keynesian defending the debt levels. Your argument is, it has worked to this point so then I am assume it would work forever.

There are other financial games they are playing to support their grotesque debt load, and their society is highly conformist unlike western societies.

The people are paying the price for their leaders malfeasance and they are essentially living through a depression.
