       @stux Considering they're stealing and benefiting from the data from many around the entire globe, this solution could apply to the debts of other countries too.

       @stux There's no way in our lifetime that that country can pay it all off.

       @stux 100% true!We all know how they benefit from us, and we all know they don't pay their share of taxes for the countries in which they have homes and businesses.  Tax the rich!

       @stux  Trump thinks he will never be held accountible. Republicans always destroy things. Then pretend to care about the debt when a Democratic president is in. Trump never plans on leaving.

       @stux For a country like the U.S., paying off its debt is as easy as printing dollars (to put it very simply). Since global demand for dollars is so high, in principle, U.S. debt pays for itself. Paul Krugman explains the significance of the rise in interest rates on 20-30-year U.S. bonds in this post https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/what-are-bond-markets-telling-usSpoiler: AI also plays a role here!

       @stux I'm guessing the senator you're citing isn't on board with your tax-the-billionaires scheme....(Just giving you a glimpse into HOW broken shit over here is....)
