US debt: Federal interest payments could soon exceed military spending

[beijingwalker]

But it does, as long as the correct balance and timing are maintained, as has been done many times in the past.

it's been over half a year already, they can try raise the rate to 100% and see what will happen.

It takes a longer time, with gradual steps, not like your idiotic advice.

Stay cool, I suggest nothing, if US tries to slowly kill itself, why should I care.

Exactly, but then what will you do without posting every little scrap news that you can find about USA?

Let the Fed adjust the rates gradually, and titrate its rates according to the responses of the markets, and it will bring down inflation gradually as well. No worries here.

Because I always know whatever I post about US will get you here, lol..cheerleaders are always the fastest, I got to give you for this.

Of course, we'll see how they deal with the messy aftermath.

It is nothing new, they have the tools and the experience necessary to deal with any and all such issues.

That interest rate hike will control inflation.

and it will also choke the economy that is dependent on and addicted to consumer spending...look at the full picture B

 

[lightning F57]

For now its clear the US tax payer will continue to foot the bill, I wonder if there is a threshold if breached will make it unattainable to maintain current spending levels.

And you can see the "full picture" better than the Fed?

 

[chinasun]

There are no carrots in the United States, only big sticks. Interest rate hikes will stop by May next year, and then use dollars to buy the world's soon-to-be-bankrupt high-quality assets to complete a harvest.

I am not arguing anything here, specially with a person who can see the full picture better than the Fed.

I am not teasing you, or anyone else, here. I am merely expressing my trust in the Fed to take measures within its remit, to control inflation while balancing all of the other requirements that it keeps an eye on, as part of the full picture. Another rate hike is expected today, but it may signal that this might be the last big hike for a while, with only smaller adjustments the next time.
