As they will in the US unless entitlement spending is radically reformed, spending is drastically cut and the federal taxation system modified so that way more people have a financial stake in play. It is shocking that nearly half of US citizens pay no federal income tax.

Yes it is shocking. Even more shocking is that the people running the system have zero accountability. If they were held to the same ethical and accounting standards as the private sector, they would all be in jail.

Under the current rules they can just throw up their hands and say: "gosh, how were we to know", and then just walk away to a comfortable retirement.

Default Nothing to see here

All is well, everything is stable and going according to plan. It won't effect us at all, we are in full control.

No really, super high taxes and massive debt are just the ticket to sound economic growth. Wait, come back!

The opening shot of what is going to be a very big move.
