Look at Puerto Rico right now. They are about to go under and are screaming at congress to allow them to fall under the same municipal bankruptcy protection that US states have.
So, while we might be up chit creek with a turd for a paddle, remember that the creek is only a foot or so deep. We can just default on everything, claim bankruptcy and start over. Just fire up the printing presses !

That's right Chris, keep your head in the sand and everything will be fine.

Sure, and China is going to allow that. Well, they might allow that if the USA agrees to retreat from the western pacific and Middle East / Africa. In which case, yes, past Peak America.

OK John. Thank You for making a difference with your internet rant. If we all did that it would be a better place.

Default on everybody? How about the senior citizens who rely on social security checks?

In the end, we will realize that not only do compassionate conservatives like Paul Ryan, NOT want to destroy Social Security,m but that there were in fact, trying to save it. Others, mostly liberals are willing to let it go under, so that they can buy votes today.

"Just fire up the printing presses "

Because that has no downside...
