thanks for your comment, as loan professional
entire US economy is built on debt
entire Q4 consumer spending "recovery" was based upon equivalent consumer credit expansion

fiat currency is doomed
the only question is how long?
the biggest absurd contradiction I know is that the USdollar is a store of value, but most often purchased in the form of the USTBond

so the flipside of the dollar is a debt
store of value cannot be a debt
plain & simple
for those who fear a confiscation of gold by USGovt
dont waste your time
if announced, then the US$ would drop 25% overnight
