When I read this stuff, I'm so glad a decent portion of my portfolio is gold.

Every time I read about MMT, I start giggling. I mean, come on. No one can be that stupid, can they?
Obviously they can. Which is why it tickles me so.

MMT would probably not be discussed so frequently if it wasn't for the amount of debt accumulation the country has seemingly survived without any apparent damage to the system. I agree with others that such talk is a great indicator for gold futures.
