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.
It is here right now.

Everything? Really? Typically, when someone says everything, always,
and similar, that's a clue that the argument is full of holes.

It has ben your answer to everything in this thread.

That's not accurate either.

The time to fix this was 30 years ago. We may already be past the
tipping point.

Fear-based nonsense.

Keep telling yourself that if it gets you through the night.

Umm... fear-based action is what "gets" you though the night. Rational
people are not quaking under the blanket.

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.,

Maybe the Republicans should reinvent death panels ala Arizona style.

Don't be shocked when that happens. It will come in the guise of the
Canadian waiting list.
Medicare does spend most of it's money on people in their last 6
months of life and the estimate is it really only buys a month or so.

Well, perhaps if the Republicans stopped their nonsense about the
false death panels, people would have a greater ability to consult
with their doctor and thus prevent some of the unnecessary care, but
when you have politicians playing on fear, e.g., pull the plug on
grandma, then you certainly are not helping the situation.
