Q&A on debt - from my board on the fool
Q. i'm confused. when the united states increases its already massive debt it will trigger an "economic rebound". but when a country other than the united states increases its already massive debt it will trigger IMF intervention and mandatory austerity measures for the citizens of said country.

A. The bully on the playground never has to worry about paying back his debts. The U.S. dollar is backed by precious metals, namely uranium and plutonium. You cannot escape the Matrix.
