Yea, but it's really the financial mess of a once prosperous nation that is the problem. It's a hole that is impossible to get out of that the younger generation was born into. It's like our parents took out federal credit cards in our name and bought $150,000 of bullshit on them for themselves, then handed us the bill when we turned 28
Interest rates and housing prices are inversely correlated. If interest rates were 17%, houses would be 1/2 of the cost they are today. I'd rather have a cheaper house I could put down 50-60% on than a low interest rate
Tax revenue doesn't even matter. They printed over 30% of all us dollars in existence last year. The 140 million people that pay taxes in this country owe 1.2 million dollars each in government debt and unfunded liabilities. 180 trillion in unfunded liabilities. 180,000,000,000,000. It's fucking over. Buckle up and protect yourself with preparedness
