Who do we owe? The Federal Reserve? Our money is fake, just like the debt. It's all a sham since we got off the gold standard.

Yeah, because devaluing your own currency via "lol just print more" worked so well in the past, like it did for interwar Germany.

We owe bond holders who were using govt bonds to store money.

It's fake until hyperinflation takes over because they have to raise the interest rate to sell anymore worthless debt.

We owe mostly our own citizens and then also some foreign organizations and governments. And money has only ever had value because of taxes.

1861 was the Radical Republicans, hard-left progressives who were gradually ousted by the former Whigs that came to dominate the party.

Remember how obsessed and worried the GOP was for a certain 8 year period? Than after 2016 they were like “LOL PARTY TIME BITCHES”

It's always the people who aren't in power who complain about debt, when they get in power it becomes "necessary"

Total debt should be our focus.

That would be very convenient for your narrative. Do you understand how the economy works? The last few years he had it very low.

Had what very low?

The first few years it went way up, can you take a guess why? Our economy started collapsing before he was sworn in.

Republicans weren’t the conservatives in 1861.

Mostly. I don’t think the debt is gonna destroy the country. But they are massive hypocrites about it, that’s for sure

When American goes bankrupt it’s gonna make the last Great Recession look like a small surge.

We would need to like double again our debt to be anything close to in trouble. 100% of gdp is only slightly above average.

Imagine how much money you’re wasting in interest payments every year so billionaires can have massive tax cuts.
