    It should have been a Constitutional stipulation that any deficit spending would be paid for out of the personal wealth of Congress.

    • @HectorYague says:

      You need to allow the monetary mass to grow to match the rate of growth of the economy. So, your rule would be as follows: any deficit spending above real GDP growth comes out of the congress personal pockets.

    • @trobertday1390 says:

      ​@@HectorYagueThat is good in theory, but the politicians and bureaucrats would just fudge the data to stay in power. Better if there was a hard deficit avoidance law coupled with a sunset clause that required legislators and bureaucrats to give up their posts if a deficit persisted longer than a limited timeframe on their watch.

    • @MichaelRaatz says:

      @@HectorYague growth of government does not equate to growth of the economy. Here is how to accomplish what you want: cancel all internal revenue collection and let all government spending be conducted out of new money creation. The amount of new money the government is allowed to spend should be pegged to the Net Domestic Product. That is currency expansion that matches the economic growth, resulting in net zero inflation and a rock stable currency.

    There’s definitely something stirring beneath the surface when it comes to treasury yields. We’ve seen fluctuations before, but the sharp movement in recent weeks feels different—it’s almost like the bond market is quietly trying to warn us about a shift in macro sentiment. Whether that’s inflation expectations, recession fears, or a policy change ahead, one thing’s clear: yields don’t move like this without a deeper story brewing.

    • @creissantrocheleau946 says:

      What I find interesting is how disconnected equities seem from these signals. Historically, when yields spike or drop significantly, it tends to ripple through every asset class, but lately, markets have been behaving as if the bond market and stock market are telling two different stories. That divergence always makes me nervous—someone’s got the story wrong.

    • @Elina_H says:

      It’s made me re-evaluate how I’m positioning my portfolio. I used to think of bonds as the “boring” side of investing, but the last couple of years have made it clear that even the fixed income side has drama. The way yields are behaving right now makes me question the timing of rate cuts, and whether the Fed is as in control as they want us to believe.

    • @grey_johnson6718 says:

      Just finished a book that completely shifted how I view investing—The Philosophy of Smart Investing by Jennafer Turner. It made me reconsider how I approach money, risk, and opportunity. If you’re in the middle of re-evaluating your financial game plan like I am, this one’s a must-read. It offered a fresh lens—and honestly, a new perspective is something we could all benefit from these days.

    • @WEi45635 says:

      The book dives into exactly the kind of mindset shift that’s necessary when markets get unpredictable like this. Turner really challenges some of the traditional thinking about safety and risk—and in the context of treasury yields signaling big changes, it’s incredibly relevant. There’s a lot in there about how to build flexibility into your investment strategy while still aiming for long-term growth.

  • @weldwizzz says:

    Doesn’t make sense. The golden rule is that when there is massive demand for treasuries the interest on those treasuries goes down because the FED doesn’t need to incentivize the buyers with higher rates. So why is it not going down, since you always say George, that the market dictates the rates not the FED. I’m totally confused.

    • @1erkyrob2 says:

      There is no demand for bonds as the world does not trust the US government anymore and is dumping bonds as a consequence.
