The debt will never go away if the fed just buys it out. It has to
be paid off.

The debt will never go away if the fed just buys it out. It has to
be paid off.

A given treasury/security has a term and the question of who holds it---the Fed or other---does not change servicing. A given treasury/security will eventually mature (meaning it will be paid off). So, it will \"go away\" if the Fed buys its, just as it does for any holder. The issue is new debt continues to be generated (and the Fed often monetizes it).

Priya Misra is an economist? Article doesn\'t say that. Maybe.


This one was interesting:
\"\'But for Treasuries to serve the purpose for which they have been anointed -- which is a cash substitute -- the intermediation mechanism\' needs to be more robust, Younger said.\"

\"Cash substitute\" is a euphemism for profligate spending by consequence-free politicians.

It does? Tell that to the people who buy houses on credit and move every 5 to 10 years.

Paying off is impossible. The debt will be inflated away, essentially
stealing everyone\'s savings and coincidentally jacking up everyones\'
tax brackets.

The answer to too much government is apparently more government.

Those same people don\'t give a damn if someone else loses their job and house. So who in their right mind would give a damn about them. Go sell that fiction to someone else.

Author of the article is a woman and a hack with little to none formal education in finance. She\'s just another \"content provider\" and she uses one of those computer aided assists to write her articles- which are full of tired newspaper speak. What you end up with is what you see. Not much there other than a disorganized attempt at thinking.

Bozo is as ignorant about the economy as he is about climate change, maybe more so. He likely doesn\'t know how the government is stealing his wealth (what is left of it, that is) thru inflation.

Well, as long as things are \'as usual\', that says we don\'t have another great depression.
The controls here are very loose; tighter economic control (more tampering)
has a bad history, so... the economists are doing their job well.

Banking in Lebanon is in a crisis nowadays. What did Lebanon\'s economists do

An appreciable chunk of my income comes from UK pension funds (I worked in the UK for 22 years), and the incompetence of the UK government means that the UK pounds that they send me don\'t buy as many Australian dollars as they used to. More of it comes from investments in the Australian stock market and that is pretty much inflation-proof.
