Let’s see if this adds up…

The US National Debt is supported through bond sales...

When economic trouble looms, the Federal Reserve purchases these bonds (quantitative easing)...

And they generate new money for these purchases?

So essentially, the US keeps renewing old debt with new debt.

Understood... consider Bitcoin.

Frank Chodorov wrote a good article about government bonds, debt, and inflation. In short, repayment is rooted in extortion and inflation. It's immoral though and through.

Thanks for the link. Yeah, the whole bond system feels like a mess when you dig into it. Inflation and extortion as repayment? That’s pretty messed up.

Yes, and the cost of that is passed onto the citizens.

Yeah, it’s kinda wild how it all trickles down to us in the end. Inflation hits, and we’re the ones feeling the pinch.
