Lies, lies, and more lies.
That was a small sized font...
No, they print 80,000,000,000.00 bucks, and put it in a bank account for banks to borrow at zero interest and play stock market with.
Pumps up the market and steals your savings at the same time.
Great plan, if you intention is to destroy the American Banking system while making it look like your helping at the same time.
Maybe they have to wait until higher numbers are invented.
No one can say a word....
That is the problem even moreso than the fact that how illogical this debt clock “stopping” thing is.
Why? Is the debt clock just some no factual diversion to begin with? Or does the debt clock actually mean what it says?
Can anyone explain this?
I don’t think that is “The Official United States (you can trust us!) Debt Clock”
