So are you saying you object to raising the debt ceiling?

I'd sooner deep fry my testes in peanut oil than subject myself to any mainstream media news outlet,...... and you won't find me on ----.

The answer to your question is never. But, as you usually do, you structured the question so the answer will conveniently fit to your narative. In doing so you left out crucial facts that expose a growing trend. A trend which shows the dollar slowly losing it's place as world reserve currency. Raising the debt ceiling will do nothing to stop this trend and will only disgruntle our creditors. There's pain to be had for our past mistakes, and no amount of kicking the can down the road will make it go away.

There will likely be no need for apocolyptic hoarding, but the standard of life here will fall dramatically while it rises in other areas of the world. In fact, it's happening already. I'd submit it's probably wise to be proficient in areas of self sufficiency.

Take it for what you will, continue your roll as court jester. But ignoring the writing on the wall doesn't change the fact that the last 98 years of central planning has been a failure.
