Ep 91: The One Trillion Dollar Coin
Update: 2023-06-20
Description
Here we go again. The Federal Government is butting up against another debt ceiling crisis. They owe a lot of people a lot of money and soon will not be allowed to borrow from the public to pay those debts anymore.
But wait. An idea that has been floated around for 30 years is gaining more traction.
It's the idea of the US Mint producing a Trillion Dollar platinum coin that can used to pay down the government's current debt and ultimately keeping them from hitting their debt ceiling.
It all seems like word salad, so in this podcast episode Derek breaks it all down in simplified terms so you can better understand what a one trillion dollar coin is meant to do.
Enjoy!
