Yeah it’s pretty sad and obvious that no one cares about doing anything about the debt and are only interested in getting re-elected. And you’re right Trump did complain about the national debt and how low interest rates hurt savers.
Reelection is what they are thinking of and obviously they are wanting lower interest rates so the market goes up as well as people buying more homes it doesn’t look like anyone is brave enough to do what’s needed according to the Simpson-Bowles committee.
I guess buy and hold gold as this seems to be the standard the country will stay in maybe will even see negative interest rates like in Germany and Japan.
