That's a problem in and of itself.
And the only reference to "environment" was someone asking why environment hadn't been mentioned, as of the time I started writing this.
- chis 10y agoThe national debt? My understanding was that most economists don't rate that as a very significant issue. But I'd love to be linked to something proving me wrong.
- lend000 10y agoAll kinds of debt, but government sponsored/owned debt in particular. It's a significant problem in our country when the economists in power do not consider (or pretend to not consider) the debt or the deficit trajectory, let alone unfunded liabilities, to be the serious problem that they are. Something has to give, whether it's a debilitating depression brought on by balancing the spreadsheet or significant devaluation of the US dollar to fraudulently meet obligations.
