I'm just going to sit tight and wait for it to implode on itself.
Then the debt will go *poof* along with 85% of government workers.
That will get us the smaller government that most want.

This is the sort of thing that happens only in whackjob internet financial guru wannabe la-la-land. Don't wait up for an occurrence in the real world.
I trust Geithner. google it, dozens of sources same stuff.
Wow, a blast from the past that has nothing whatsoever to do with the current topic. He made a mistake doing his own taxes. When that mistake was identified and brought to his attention, he paid what was owed. In fact he paid tens of thousands of dollars more that weren't actually owed. Hundreds of thousands of people every year find themselves in the same sort of situation as Geithner did. The risk of it comes with having a tax return of some complexity, even if you choose not to do your taxes yourself. Some people ought to grow up a little and maybe learn to understand and accept the world the way it actually is.

try your own advice. Some people ought to grow up a little and maybe learn to understand and accept the world the way it actually is.
You know, each day that I tune in to P&OC for a while, it seems to turn out that I know and understand a lot more about particular aspects of the world as it actually is than a whole lot of particularly right-wing other people. Not my fault, not necessarily theirs. Just the way the world actually is, I guess.

That would be nice. And I'm sure there are some here who would be in the same sort of ballpark in the same sort of areas if they'd had the same sort of training and experience that I've had. Maybe not a lot, but I would certainly say some.

Reason: quit the insults
I think hyper-inflation is on our horizon in terms of our costs, but I'll bet wages decline anyway. I haven't seen wages rise much in the 25 years I've been in the work world, but housing and insurance (among other costs) have gone through the roof.
Yip welcome to wealth redistribution Reagan stile. We need the inflation in wages/prices with a cap on the top of the wealth structure. Bring the top and bottom back closer together. Just my humble opinion.
