#12 Matt, that was me, the limerick idiot, idiotically taking the name in vain upon remembering Shipman's thing for pie hats. Should've gone with "Ghost of Shipman," or just kept quiet, since I only knew the man from his later posts here. Sorry for any confusion.

#14 NO! We are broke! The national debt is north of 30 trillion and growing like a cancer. If the Treasury had to pay even 3% return on existing t-bills/debt it would consume the entire federal budget. The Fed doesn't dare use liquidity tools or decrease buying treasuries in the greatest ponzi scheme in world history, or the whole fiat money system would collapse when any sane person looked at it. Since the 1960's America has endured the greatest looting of the public treasury since the fall of Rome, and the level of direct and indirect ruinous taxation on the middle class is worse than that experienced by the serf class in medieval Europe. We have exported our industrial base, imported useless illegals and torn the fabric of the nation to tatters over racist slanders as we devolve into tribal groupthink and educate our children in progressive gibberish. And the remedy of an honest election is now dubious at best as we see that the Marxists and their allies clearly stole the last elections....God help us!
