The U.S. government is insolvent.

trump will tell all that is good, the best insolvency the world has ever seen

Quote:
“The U.S. government is insolvent. That’s not hyperbole,” wrote Steve Hanke, professor of applied economics at Johns Hopkins University and David M. Walker, former U.S. Comptroller General, in a recent Fortune op-ed (1).

While the USD is top dog currency, printing the crap out of it avoids insolvency.

BRICS+ are purposely working against the petrodollar, by circumventing. Trump's mob are working on stable coins to take up the slack.

Thing is, all fiat currencies are derivatives of the USD. When the USD implodes, other currencies/economies like Australia goes down with her.

Central banks stocking up with physical gold/ + other precious metals, is the best advertising on what everyone should be doing in preparation.

ai :

As of early 2025, the expanded BRICS+ bloc (comprising 10 full members and 9 partner countries, including Vietnam, Nigeria, and Indonesia) represents approximately 54.6% to 55.61% of the world's population, with a combined total of roughly 4.45 billion people ... over half of humanity, while also capturing 42.2% to 44% of global GDP measured by purchasing power parity (PPP).

Physical gold's the liquidity.

China alone holds possibly 25,000 tonnes of physical.

What's your point ?

Golds higher than it was 6 months ago ... and is massively up on the 12 months/24 months/5 year time scales ?

Whatever happened to Trump's promise to verify Fort Knox's pretend gold. He went there and it was empty?

The U.S. government is NOT  insolvent -

as it can print as much money as it wants to repay people with paper.

But at a cost of 10% interest.
Something that Obama did and couldn't pay off

Trump could just take over the Fed -
print $38 trillion and pay everyone off.
However it would cause massive inflation.
