THE MAN WHO MANAGED 2008 IS WARNING ABOUT THE NEXT CRISIS - AND IT'S WORSE
Former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson: when the Fed becomes the only buyer of Treasuries and yields keep rising, "when we hit the wall, it will be vicious."
$39 trillion in debt. $1 trillion a year just in interest - more than the entire defense budget. In 2008 the government could bail itself out. Not this time.
The only option left: print more money to pay off old debt. Every dollar printed devalues the ones in your pocket.
Bitcoin: 21 million. Fixed. No printer. No bailout. No debasement.
