      1812, the United States was engaged in the War of 1812 against Great Britain. The war was expensive, and the government was forced to borrow money to finance it. However, there is no evidence that the government defaulted on its debt during this time.
      In 1933, the United States was in the midst of the Great Depression. The government was facing a severe financial crisis, and it was forced to take a number of steps to address the crisis. One of these steps was to abandon the gold standard, which meant that the government was no longer obligated to redeem its debt in gold. However, this is not the same as defaulting on debt.
      In 1971, the United States took another step away from the gold standard. President Richard Nixon announced that the United States would no longer convert dollars into gold. This decision was made in an effort to stabilize the dollar and to improve the U.S. balance of payments. Again, this is not the same as defaulting on debt.

    • @Jocky8807
      @Jocky8807 Рік тому +4

      The same. Default means not to keep your promise as stated in contractual agreement.
      The US promised to peg the $ to gold. It was no longer keep it's promise and on one side changed the agreement. It was a default. That's why it was shocked the world.
      But the US could get away with it. Face no consequences. That is another question. But it was a default nonetheless.
      Also, there was another one. Before ww1 where JP Morgan bailed out the US Government.

      I think now it’s different because millions of people can lose their jobs, which might cause a severe and deep crisis not only in US, but across the world. If the US does not honor its commitments and defaults on its debt, they are doing the same as Argentina did. And all the hegemony that the US once had around the world is being lost. So it has to be careful.

      But judging from how fast they are printing money and raise interest rate.
      Either default or inflation is the only exit doors available. Both options would end up the $ shrinking usage (dedolarization).
      Many see these as china influence. In my view, this is just practicality. Who would hold $ when it is certain it will lose value (inflation)? The other exit, who would use and borrow $ when interest rate is 5%. With that rate, third world countries have to borrow/refinance at 8-9%. Even then none would buy their bonds.

      I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but EVERYTHING in economics has a floor and ceiling. Demand, supply, revenue, expenses, debt, equity, cost of goods sold, asset valuation, depreciation. You literally cannot have economics or an economy without a floor and ceiling to measure the gradient. And if there were no debt ceiling, the USA would probably end up like Venezuela due to how much they love starting endless wars.

    I'm sorry can you just remind me how do you spend over $33 trillion and what do you spend it on? This is equivalent of giving each man, women and child in the US $100,000 😦. So, let me get this straight their best case scenario is to remove the debt ceiling, right?
    This seems to me like that time in the 70s when the president took USD off of the gold standard and gave the reigns to bankers. Now look where this has got the USD. So seems like these lot really didn't learn anything and they are now in it till they literally collapse USD (in other words print so much of the currency to make it worthless), taking US and the rest of the economic world with it.
    Is it just me or does someone smell something off about this? Sounds to me like they are talking about a great reset (where the entire economic system comes to a halt, it's reset using a new monetary system in form of a new cryptocurrency backed by the government and off course the fed, central banks, IMF, etc. and then shoved down our throats).
    Once we are on the new 'system' they literally can control what we spend the money on, how we spend the money, how much the money is worth, where we spend the money, and tax us as much as they want. Welcome to new modern day slavery, where you can just be turned off from the system. Reminds me of that film, ummmm... what's it called, oh yeah!! The MATRIX!

    Eventually yes. I don’t see any possible solutions for the US governments to reduce spendings. It is very likely that the debt ceiling will continue rising and the US governments or the US dollar will lose reputation.

      There is plenty of solution to reduce United States government spending. Six months ago, the government passed a huge spending bill to rebuild infrastructure and implement green energy infrastructure. None of that spending was absolutely necessary and could easily be curtailed. But the democrats are opposing it.

We literally need infrastructure and need to reduce are carbon foot print not give corporations and the wealthy tax cuts which was done under the republicans who literally had no problem with the debt while they held the white house.

      ​@Seymour Butts constantly but it increased due to the 2017 tax cuts which reduced tax revenue and because of the pandemic but also because of the 20 year occupation and several wars we launched for no real monetary return for the government. The republicans want to cut social safety nets which will increase poverty and reduce consumption which will probably throw us into a recession.

      @@franzjoseph1837 Interesting to hear you say that exactly at the same time that I lifted my finger from texting my congressman that we need to raise taxes.
      However, we already have enough infrastructure and do not need more at this time and green spending can wait. For example part of the green spending bill installs a chain of electric car chargers across the United States. I do not think the government should be doing that at all. Private companies should pay for that. You are against big corporations not paying taxes, but okay for the federal government to pay for the charging stations, when corporations will get the profits??
      Your comment to that guy saying "the Republicans want to reduce social safety nets" is just not true.

      @@Matthew_Loutner House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s debt-limit-and-cuts bill puts the U.S. economy at grave risk by using the need to raise the debt ceiling as a bargaining chip to force a set of unpopular, harmful policies - policies that would make deep cuts in a host of national priorities; leave more people hungry, homeless, and without health coverage; and make it easier for wealthy people to cheat on their taxes. The bill would also repeal the Inflation Reduction Act’s funding to address climate change, and would undertake harmful changes that would undermine how regulations are crafted.
      In exchange for these highly problematic long-term, and in some cases permanent, policies, the McCarthy bill would only raise the debt ceiling through early next year (March 31, 2024, at the latest), allowing House Republicans to use the deadline for another round of hostage-taking.
      By putting forward this debt-limit-and-cuts bill but not a full budget, Speaker McCarthy hides the full House Republican fiscal agenda. House Republicans have made clear that they intend to make all of the expiring 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent, including those that benefit very wealthy households, at a cost of some $300 billion annually, without any effort to raise revenues to pay for them. This would erase most of the bill’s claimed fiscal savings. Examining the tax cuts and program cuts together shows that the House Republican agenda re-allocates trillions in resources to well-off households at the expense of investments that promote broader opportunity and growth.
      Cutting a broad swath of public services - from schools, child care, and public health to environmental protection and college aid - and making it harder for people to afford the basics while permitting more tax cheating and cutting taxes for the wealthy is failed trickle-down economics at its worst. This agenda would narrow opportunity, deepen inequality, and increase hardship.

      In the United States, the democrats believe in and trust the government to do everything for you including wipe your bottom. Trusting government like you trust your mother and expecting the government to be your nursemaid is left.
      The Republicans do not trust governments. They are highly suspicious of anything the government does that would control anything in your life. Republicans lock the government out of the bathroom and wipe their own bottom. Suspicion of all governments is right.
      To a Republican, the whole rest of the world is naive because the left trusts the government and the right trusts the government. Trusting the government is dangerous and stupid. The government is your first enemy.
