Why, he can loan the same $9 Trillion he loaned to the banks, to Washington DC, you, his partners in crime.
Who cares where it comes from... it's all counterfeited toilet paper anyway.
This is more propaganda and fear institution for the ignorant and to ensure all his spending Dumbocrats vote yes to raise the LOAN DEBT AMOUNT to whatever.
There's 3 ludicrous things about all this:
1st: The debt ceiling is not a credit limit. Credit card limits are set by your lender, and they're not self imposed.
2nd: There's no cap on spending. It's the gap between spending and revenue that matters.
3rd: Nobody believes that the current debt ceiling can be maintained, even with aggressive Rand Paul/Paul Ryan-like austerity measures.
It's all a fony fiscal farce with the Federal Reserve

Perhaps somebody can answer the one question I've been having this entire time.
Why do we need the banks so much that we had to bail them out to the tune of $900 billion?
If all of those banks had failed, wouldn't the free market take over for their loss and people would still be getting loans from other places?
Because if the likes of JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, and AIG fail, then you'd have widespread chaos in the credit markets that would spill into the rest of the economy, since credit is, roughly speaking, 50% of all capital. People would lose their checkable deposits at these banks, which totals nearly $200 billion, retirement funds would get decimated due to stock market losses, and jobs would be lost in the tens of millions from the domino effect into the rest of the global economy.Originally Posted by Dr.3D
Of course, I'm just playing devil's advocate here

I am more and more convinced that man is a dangerous creature and that power, whether vested in many or a few, is ever grasping, and like the grave, cries, 'Give, give.'

Oh, okay... I thought it was perhaps to save the member banks of the Federal Reserve and thus perpetuate the insanity.Because if the likes of JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, and AIG fail, then you'd have widespread chaos in the credit markets that would spill into the rest of the economy, since credit is, roughly speaking, 50% of all capital.

Well, you're actually somewhat correct in that remark. These ARE member banks of the Federal Reserve System, and they've been getting a lot of privileges through the Fed's discount window lending activities over the many decades.
Who pays for the political campaigns and lobbyists?
Out of every one hundred men they send us, ten should not even be here. Eighty will do nothing but serve as targets for the enemy. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, upon them depends our success in battle. But one, ah the one, he is a real warrior, and he will bring the others back from battle alive.
Duty is the most sublime word in the English language. Do your duty in all things. You can not do more than your duty. You should never wish to do less than your duty.
The longer he puts it off, the more catastrophic the correction is going to be.

Maybe he knows that and is looking for someone to blame when the catastrophic correction does happen.
