I remember seeing Penn Jillette say this would happen in a vlog about a dozen years ago. Looks like this day finally came.😢

In other words, even by stopping immediately ALL the military activities, wages etc and using the saved money to pay tne interests on the debt, till the US would not be able to stop the debt growth.

Crazy.

Stack accordingly
