Your arse must be extraordinarily roomy, given what you keep pulling out of it.

Well, that's a different issue, innit?  I was just wondering where you got a 90% unemployment rate.

Debt creates jobs. On gold statndard there is not enough debt to create jobs for everyone.

There will be blood on the streets.

Nixon took us off the gold standard in 71... the best thing he ever did for banks with our worthless bullshit fiat money.

We'll be back on it before the end of the next decade. It worked very well for 5,000 years...

You were wiser when you selected “ignoramus” as your name.

Report your findings to regulators. It's their job to prevent crashes.

You should compare tax revenue vs debt payments when talking about government debt. Debt vs GDP or debt per capita is irrelevant. Also countries like US can't default on their government debt since debt is denominated in their own currency.
