Hey Big Spender! (Federal Government).
The US government now pays out on average $3bn in interest expenses per day…If the Fed cuts interest rates by 1%-point and the entire yield curve declines by 1%-point, then daily interest expenses will decline from $3bn per day to $2.5bn per day.
Even worse, unfunded Federal liabilities total $219 trillion while total US assets total only $213 trillion. In other words, if China (for example) forced us to pay off our unfunded liabilities like Social Security, Medicare, etc., we couldn’t.
Notice how NO politician ever discusses The Federal goverment spending LESS money. Particularly not Joe “The fool on the hill” Biden or Kamala “Word salad Kammie” Harris.
