Yes, there's a limit. There's no indication that those who buy it are
going to stop any time soon.

So you think we should wait until they do stop buying our debt before
we act?
That is a hell of a game of chicken you want to play with the full
faith and credit of the US.

Never said that, as you know.

You just did.
You are not going to believe there is a problem until you see it
happening. By then it will be too late.

Please show me where I said the long term problem doesn't exist and/or
doesn't need to be addressed.

You just think everything is "long term" AKA someone elses problem.

Fear-based nonsense.

The real problem is the entitlements and we will never go after people
who are retired or within 10-15 years of retirement. That means most
of the boomer problem is still coming and there is nothing we can do
about it.,
