1:49Now PlayingI want to explain in a nutshell why the US debt situation is at a very dangerous inflection point.
Put simply, the US is now spending 40% more than we’re taking in. This accumulation of debt service payments has spiraled over decades and is starting to squeeze away buying power.
And if you run the numbers, there’s an imbalance between how much debt has to be sold, who the buyers are, and the likelihood of it all being bought.
Together, these two influences are why I worry about suffering an economic heart attack in the near future.
