Bigworld, Yes, a house of cards for sure. So how long can the Ponzi scheme continue is the question? The debt bomb is now parabolic, and in that case trying to rein it in at all could trigger a liquidity crisis that brings it all down. Several years ago, Rickards compared the situation to an inevitable avalanche, with the only question being when, and what will be the trigger event. Quadrillions in Derivatives are piled on top of the underlying financial instruments, which is what turned the 2008 crisis into a global near death catastophe. Trump came in like a bull in a china shop, on steroids, so that could turn out to be the trigger event that gets things snowballing. The timeline is the question - does the unraveling happen soon, in a few years, five years, etc? Guess we'll find out..
