Well, this goes right along with the garbage I heard today that Putin is claiming that "The Russian Federation" has a clause in it between them and the U.S. that after so many years they can take back Alaska! Since when. The man is delusional!
When the only tangible difference between the day before Russia invaded the Ukraine and today is ~75,000 dead Russian troops, perhaps Putin should stop outsourcing his brainpower to Alexandr Dugin.
Switch to Diet Nihilism. The full flavor is fuggin him up.
Debt to who? Good intentions? Take away all the promises to pay "unfunded mandates" and the US debt to GDP ratio drops to near-nil. Sure, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security will have to send out nice form letters that read "sucks to suck, sucker" instead of checks, but most of the people that will rely on that money will die without it so the balance sheet balances itself.
$80 billion dollars, 8 days of US government spending to have Russia commit suicide by Kiev... that's a bargain.
Biden should offer Russia a peace deal that allows Russians in the Donbas region and Moscow to move to Vladivostok in exchange for all Russian land west of the Caucasus Mountains to be ceded to Ukraine.
How many jobs would be created if we tore down a city and rebuilt it somewhere else in the US? How much money would change hands? How much wealth would be created if we kept the cities we have and built more of them with the land and resources we have in reserve? ;)
America doesn't have a debt problem. America has a collateral stagnation problem. Do you think foreign investors are buying up US real estate because they're afraid of being taxed to death?
China springs immediately to mind. If Enron were a country, it would be China. The CCP is in a panic because millions of Chinese are now refusing to pay rent.
China's real debt to GDP ratio is rapidly approaching 400%. That have entire cities with massive buildings, office space, and housing, that are all totally empty. Nobody wants the Chinese Communist Party to be their landlord.

ReplyDeleteMinus would cheer if (somehow) Alaska became Russian property.
ReplyDeleteAnything would be better than Lisa Murkowski's Senate votes...

You forgot the $80+ billion in additional US debt, beamish.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot the addition $80+ billion in US debt. That only $1.067 million per Russian killed.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't sound very cost effective. We could probably buy Russia for less.

"First off, Vladipoo, we are highly offended that you want to be taken seriously like a real country..."
ReplyDeleteI hate to be the one to tell you this, beamish, but there's still that little matter of $30 trillion in outstanding debts.
ReplyDelete$30 Trillion debt vs.
ReplyDelete$225 Trillion in assets
Imagine having more than seven times what you owe tucked away in property and assets, and being upset about it....

You going to confiscate the private wealth and "household goods" of US citizens to pay it off, beamish? That's very Poi Pot of you.
ReplyDeleteNah, I'm just saying the national debt ain't shit compared to countries with no private property owners.
ReplyDeleteWhat countries would those be?

The end of the end of China has begun.
Those bldgs are privately owned.
ReplyDeleteAnd undeveloped husks because of "feng shui" - developing property lowers its market value in China lol
