I understand that, but thrashing the economy is very different from thrashing the credit rating of the whole country. But I can see how perhaps I’m still in denial, looking back it is true that this regime has been worsen than my wildest imagination in all aspects
Thank you for your mercy, even though you eventually ran out of it
My bad, I jumped to conclusions since a lot of the case discussions are indigenous. I hope someday you and their other loved ones impacted by this negligence get some closure, even if it doesn't come from the institutions that should have helped.
If USD is devalued over time we'll make bank in other ways, so not concerned about that. What's more likely is higher inflation would demand higher bond yields, which means bonds are cheaper and Canada should buy even more of them. It does mean that current bonds lose value but if we hold them to term doesn't matter much
A trump never pays his debts.
What "a trump" does is not important, even the shittiest demagogues out there still rarely default on treasury and public debt like this. What's way more likely is that they'll fuck up the entire economy to pay off these debts, and use that as an excuse to cut the tiniest amount of public services and social welfare they accomplished in the last 20 years.
A default on public debt would impact Trump personally. On those matters you can bet that he works hard to cover his ass.
“Cloaking” a modicum of non-aggression as respect while still jumping the conclusion that someone is based solely on anecdotal evidence is not as helpful as you might think, but at least I appreciate the spirit
Because we know they’ll pay it one way or another, their recession/inflation is irrelevant
There’s nothing more Reddit like than “I think what you mean / you should be saying” and a “this is such a Reddit moment” to boot lol
(AFAIK the causal link between racism and intelligence is not clear, so we agree on your main point, though there are studies that correlate racist discourse and verbal ability)
most of these cases are treated as write offs and they really don’t care
Yes, that's systemic racism and oppression in the works. Not only the RCMP isn't invested on helping out, they are part of the problem. Doesn't mean that nobody cares, though.
Yes, clearly this thread has shown that some people care
Why doesn’t anyone care?
Why would we think that nobody cares? I don't understand this outrage bait; obviously a lot of people care about this
So far, for this kind of debt, 100%
