    Oh and the "Council of Economic Advisers"... not a 3rd party independent audit firm. It's a group of people Trump hired over the last few months to basically nod their heads to him.

                        There are jokes going around bond markets about Big Beautiful Bill.

                        BBB is the lowest credit rating you can have before junk status.

                            LOL

                            I look at a couple of forums about thailand and there are starting to complaints from expat retirees about how their money has lost XX% vs the Thai baht.
