Agree. Total meltdown & disaster is the only thing that can

engender the kind of day and night media pounding necessary to awaken the public to the grim reality that only a tiny percentage of the population currently realize is rapidly approaching.

From a practical, nuts and bolts, real world, professional money managers perspective? The only question is:

How long can Asian buyers continue to gobble up larger and larger helpings of new US government debt?

IMO, they don't even have to stop. All that has to happen is for their current frenetic pace of buying to slow down.

Of course, all that matters to those in positions of financial and political power is reelecting the corrupt incumbents - of both parties - next November. Billions have been invested over many successive reelection cycles to own their votes by foreign AWA US interests.

And that foreign financial interest (via the billions spread around Congress from various foreign lobbies) may be what keeps the game going a bit longer than some of us might think. Remember, one of the largest lobbies that has invested heavily in US government officials for the past 10-15 years is the Chinese.

Well, back to work for me. Will have to let you carry the ball on this issue. My posting time is very limited. So, can't hold forth very often (at length) about such things.

Best regards,
