Morning guys. I have listened to the podcast three times now, and of course he gets the debt part. But I think he is completely naive about politics. There is NO way the Dems. and Repubs. could work on this. We have seen it too many times. It will take a total collapse of the dollar to fix it. Why do you think the National Defense Authorization Act repealed the 1878 the Posse Comitatus Act and suspended Habious Corpus? The government is preparing for the wost. Things are speeding up so quickly we may not have the time.Unquote.
