💰 The world is drowning in debt… but who is the lender?
The numbers look staggering: 🇺🇸 US debt: ~$36 trillion
🇨🇳 China debt: ~$15 trillion
🌍 Global debt: ~$317 trillion
So the question naturally arises 🤔: If everyone is in debt… who is holding the other side of the balance?
🏦 How the system actually works
In modern finance: 💵 Money is often not pre-existing
📊 It is created through lending (credit expansion)
When banks issue loans: ➡️ money enters the system
➡️ but the interest required to repay it is not created at the same time
🔁 The cycle effect
This creates a structural loop: 📉 old debt requires repayment
📈 new debt is taken to repay old debt
So global debt keeps expanding over time 🔄
🏦 Where does the “other side” go?
Behind every debt: 💼 there is a corresponding asset somewhere in the system
Over time, this tends to concentrate: 🏛️ large financial institutions
📊 major investors
🏦 global capital holders
⚠️ Key insight
This is why: 📈 debt keeps increasing globally
💰 wealth tends to concentrate over time
💡 The big question
Is this just how economics naturally works…
or a system designed in a way where debt never fully disappears, only rotates? 🤯
