This is the hyperinflationistas dream scenario they have been predicting for decades… having to issue Treasuries in order to pay the interest on the Treasuries..
This is textbook Art degree moron hyperinflationista 101…. These zombies are probably all foaming at the mouth…
I wouldn’t think this development (the embarrassing credit downgrade) would tend to politically motivate the Biden people towards more rate increases.. perhaps the opposite…
Fitch is based in UK and US probably thinks the US rates are too high compared to the UK hence the downgrade of the US … UK rates would have to be well over 10% to be comparable to current US 5.5% rate… with UK CPI at 8% and US CPI at 3%…
Downgrade came soon after US Fed psycho’s latest rate increase in the face of continued reduction in US CPI…
Fitch probably justified in its decision… if the Art degree Fed psychos keep going like they have been the fiscal interest income will get so large it will most likely destabilize US prices towards rapid increase eventually…
Probably Fitch’s way of telling the US Fed psychos “enough already!”…
