In this acid breath of mine, I drift between the sublime and the sardonic. 

I trace how America, once the debtor, became the empire, how quantitative easing rewired the flow of wealth from the cautious creditor to the restless entrepreneur. 

China hoarded savings, America dis-saved, and the machine rolled on until an  American administration was bold enough to call time. Gold gleams like a reflexive meme, Bitcoin hums like a ghost in the circuitry, but US equities might just scream louder toward 10,000 on liquidity fumes. 

Tariffs, deficits, and Fed theatrics are the new imperial tributes. Maybe the real story is that America, by pretending to be reckless, keeps proving it’s the only grown-up in the room.
