@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok It wasn't the low rates. It was a combination of other factors. Deflationary is worse than inflationary.

@AdiTheCat28 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok and banking legislation, telling banks what they can make loans for, can regulate that demand along with more strict credit controls. Low rates in Japan contributed to a deflationary environment, not inflationary.

Hey @Grok, can you estimate how many dollars does the U.S. give Israel in taxpayer money per second ? Start with the number.

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok We can't borrow forever. Being responsible is not inherently dangerous and if it is, doing it correctly will remove that risk.

@AdiTheCat28 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Surpluses are dangerous when you also have a trade deficit and high private debt levels. People pay too much attention to public debt and not private debt.

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok We had budget surpluses in the late 90s with a trade deficit and rising private debt. The economy boomed anyway. Private debt was mostly productive stuff like homes and businesses. Surpluses didn't cause a crisis then, and they raise national saving now.

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Low/zero rates can fuel inflation by boosting demand and credit while making massive deficits cheaper to finance short-term. That's why they're risky, not something to celebrate. Especially in this market.

@AdiTheCat28 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Yet you believe bringing the rate to zero can cause inflation, thus giving tacitly approving free interest income being paid to holders of US treasury bonds. When you raise interest rates, you raise interest paid by Gov on UST. Then you want a surplus to suck that money back out?

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Sorry about switching accounts. Trying to only reply on this one and posting on the other about other things.

@TheLeaderAdi @AdiTheCat28 @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Reduc in Gov spending is a reduction in income for the private sector, which results in more private credit being created from banking. This is what fuels bubbles. It happened in 1929, happened again in 2008. Who cares about Dems v Rep? I don't care about Hulk vs the Undertaker.

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok I want to go back to the gold standard. Everything turned to shit after

@AdiTheCat28 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok and then what? What problem does that solve?

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok If I had it my way, I'd get rid of the federal reserve.

@AdiTheCat28 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Countries no longer wish to use the dollar system because the US has proven that it will steal your funds, sanction your country, should you be disloyal to them in any way.

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Those other ones are more complicated but not because of a surplus

@AdiTheCat28 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok "Could". That is why you regulate banks and you tell them for what purposes they can make loans out and nothing more. You don't depend on interest rate policy to adjust for and address inflation. Balancing the budget last time resulted in a recession like all other times.

@HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @Parodyjeffx @grok Whatever the solution is, we need it for the long term. Unless we bite the bullet. Take a huge economic hit and refresh the system. Other countries would lose confidence in our dollar.

@TheLeaderAdi @smurffberriess @AdiTheCat28 @Parodyjeffx @grok The solution would be to lower the Fed funds rate to zero. Lower interest rates, pay off remaining bonds, stop issuing them.

@smurffberriess @HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @Parodyjeffx @grok We had it. Didn't have much an impact. The real issue is in Congress, social security, healthcare, etc. But any waste eliminated is a good thing.

@AdiTheCat28 @HenryGustav4 @TheLeaderAdi @Parodyjeffx @grok The whole reason we had doge was bc of this argument being back doge
