Probably a better analogy is looking at a farm.
If I wanted to increase gross revenue 20%, I can do it with a lot less dollars, and assuming my farm isn't profitable just like the government - then with less debt. If I have 600 acres and machinery for it and want to grow to 800 acres then a guy can say debt expansion won't be too much.
Now let's say its a 6000 ac farm going to 8000 ac. You will be borrowing a lot more for land and also to increase the equipment and manpower capacity.
Government and economy is no different. And this is not rocket science. Remember years ago when every talking head and government rep said we can inflate our way out of debt and I said bullschit. It's pretty easy. The only way you can do that is if you cut spending and run surplus. Whether it is government or the farm, it don't matter.
What we are clearly seeing is government has no intention of paying off debt. In fact, as i say, the system relies on debt expansion. So all that inflating prices does is mean borrowing will be more in size, more in interest and also the big one - the amount of dollars needed to by pumped in will be on an exponential curve because if the farm analogy I just made.
The trick is to make the peasants not understand this. And likely why we have these BS government agendas like climate change, LGBTQ, open borders requiring massive social assistance programs. It's all to explain away that government needs to spend more.
The reality is it is hiding how the system actually works.
And why we need to be concerned what and when the end game is. I know people think eventually the debt gets paid back so there is no end of the line. I would say we can start seeing the end of the line.
Buying land is not a bad idea. But I don't know exactly how the end game goes or if someone intervenes. I can't bet either way. Debt expansion and inflation is certainly a safe bet so land makes sense but that is all based on a 30 year outlook. I highly doubt we go 30 years of more of the same. So I can't say what makes sense long term.
US is certainly picking their wars right now. All part of the game. $1T to protect the nation and its borders and then purposely leaves the borders wide open. Does "incompetent" apply to the entire military and government operations or is better to say "by design". Or who are they really fighting and why.
