Essentially no different than what the Weimar Republic did to pay off its WWI debt.

Indeed. It would trigger hyperinflation by throwing $29 trillion or so into the economy over a very short period. But I think at some point they will have no choice. Politicians are not going to deal with the underlying problem.

Article makes a ton of sense, especially on border security.  We all want it - but there is zero chance of Biden implementing it.

Chad Asks US to Cease Operations at Strategic Army Base

(Bloomberg) -- Chad called on the US to withdraw its troops from an army base in the central African country that’s one of the West’s few remaining outposts to fight a roiling jihadist insurgency in the region.

The move comes a month after Niger — another key Western ally in the region — suspended its security agreement with the US, amid a series of coups that have seen military-ruled governments in the Sahel forge closer ties with Russia while cutting those with the West.

Chad has alerted the US “to stop their activity at the base,” according to a letter to the US defense attaché seen by Bloomberg. The letter, signed by the air force chief of staff Idriss Amine Ahmed, was verified by a foreign ministry spokesman, who declined to comment further.
US broadcaster CNN on Thursday reported that Chad had asked US troops to leave the country, citing a separate letter sent to the US defense attaché.

“Chad hasn’t asked US forces to leave,” a US state department spokesman said.  .  .

First, Niger.  Now Chad.

Says the man who defends lying to destroy people.

And the irony of you accusing me of "whatever it takes" to take someone down is doing exactly that.

LOL!  All I did in my post was to point out the "virtue signal" questioned. 

And that's the the end of the discussion @DB
