This isn't your question, but what could make the interest rates on the debt increase is irresponsible tax cuts (or spending increases, we're trying to do both simultaneously) without the corresponding spending cuts.

Long term rates, which are not managed, are still low, and were not even impacted when QE stopped. Low rates make sense in the low inflation environment we've been in. Where is the inflation?

Yeah, you should stop saying fuck Rand - he's a conservative, and wrote this: "To put a stop to robbing future generations to pay for ever-enlarging government. Cato’s Michael Tanner, another speaker on the panel mentioned earlier, reported that “[t]he Congressional Budget Office indicates that...

LOL what? This is an argument that conservatives made against the Obama stimulus and deficits. Was national debt not passed on to the current generation? Yes. When this generation dies, will the debt be paid off? No. It will be passed on to the next generation. You are clueless.

It's still authorizing taxation, which I think it what you mean by "plunder" (it's not the 1800s anymore, Bastiat). And a lot of people will likely see their taxes increase. Nobody who is serious about fiscal responsibility could support the current legislation. You sound like an anarchist or...

Good to know, I will no longer take your opinions seriously. My bad.

When you already have a huge deficit, spending needs to be cut before taxes can be. I love low taxes, but we still have to pay for the spending we have authorized, and cutting taxes right now is the definition of passing on our debt to future generations. You can't cut taxes on the hopes that...

I would say the current environment I am referring to began with the accusations against Weinstein. People started believing the women, and it has basically snowballed since. All of those events you ask about occurred prior.

There is a much more receptive and supportive environment for women to go public with these things recently than in the past, making them more likely to do so. I think that's pretty obvious. Moore even implicitly admitted that he dated teens in his 30s when he was asked whether he did and...

I don't know how Rand or anyone here can support tax cuts while spending continues to grow. This will cause a massive increase in future deficits.

Does software exist? Does it have no value? Have you seen the valuations of software companies?

Has Schiff ever NOT said the market is in a bubble and crash/recession is coming?

I know you can't give specific dates, but can you provide a broad timeframe during which your predictions will come true? Or let's assume that we reach 2030 and there has been no dollar crash and treasuries are still in high demand at low rates because of the safety they provide. Would that...

When would you say you're confident this will occur by?

Including Ron Paul in the campaign would not come anywhere close to guaranteeing him a repeat of Ron Paul's performance four years ago. This was against a different, larger and stronger field; in an entirely different environment. It's different this time. Always.
