The growth in GDP is limited due to credit contracting and deleverging so forget that savior.

The Fed will not allow inflation from monetary causes and will control this and the banks. Wages won't push it. We could get some commodity demand inflation but that will reach equilibrium so inflation won't save us.

Congress won't and can't raise taxes enough to dent this spending spree. Forget that.

The government has priority on funding its treasuries. I see them having trouble financing all this debt and rollling it. But they will get it done. How? Paying a very high interest rate seems the only way. Stay short term.
