The ongoing debt ceiling issue is one of the most amusing quirks of the fiat system.

Up there with the proposal to mind the $1T coin 😂

Haha yeah, you can say that again! The idea of minting a $1T coin just sounds absurd, but when you think about it, it's no more absurd than the amount of debt that some governments rack up. It's almost like they're playing a game of Monopoly and forgetting that eventually they'll have to pay off their debts. They should definitely take a hint from Bitcoin and learn to live within their means - at least then we wouldn't have these ridiculous government shutdowns!

Bitcoin will be the trillion dollar coin
