General Discussion

is driving this chaos. Your nation is no longer credit-worthy. You’re overdrawn, and your creditors are losing faith in your ability to honour your obligations. What a comedown, eh?
There’s no easy solution whatever side of the aisle you’re on. You could try not incurring more international debt , you can pay back what you owe, and cut your purse to fit your pocket. With a much smaller bond debt the Reagan admin. handled that. The tariff biz, which never works, is a sideshow, a distraction from your real issue, now before you. An international set of large obligations is not insurmountable if taken in gradual negotiated steps. In stride, your creditors will cooperate.
I believe you can do this and end the administration idiocy that now plagues you. Watch the current gang kowtow and/or run when this becomes top of the agenda.
Here in Canada , your friendly northern neighbour, we’ve running low international bond costs and keeping our spending roughly within our means. Most of our loans as bonds are domestically taken up. Yes the scale you operate on is ginormous but spending above your income (tax revenue) can really get out of hand.
Reel it in, or look out, Charlie Brown!
