10 Myths About Government Debt. Do the rich pay their fair share? Can the debt problem be fixed?
Myth 1 is that the government owes “only” $20 trillion. (In reality, it’s much more.) But luckily, Myth 10 is that there’s no way to fix this problem… Prof. Antony Davies explains.

Inflation is a thief to all who have worked hard and saved for their retirements. That is why it might be better to own Real property, instead of cash in saving accounts, especially in times of inflation.

May 1, 2021 at 3:08 am#870425GeneBalthropParticipantProclaimer….but the problem is “inflation”. When money is not tide to some kid of standard of value. It creates “inflation” , inflation over here is beginning to escalate at an alarming rate. Saving accounts are eroding. Prices of food and other things are on the rise, everything is moving up and up in prices, home just a year ago are up 20 to 30% , gas is up 30 % food prices are soring, the more the government prints money the faster ‘“inflation” grows, and the the more people become poorer. Our middle class is steadily shrinking, while those considered in poverty are Steadily growing.
