The GENIUS Act, requiring stablecoins to be backed by U.S. Treasuries, follows the same funding model as the National Bank Acts; however, it has serious limitations. Stablecoins can bolster the market for U.S. debt, but they won’t tame the voracious interest monster that is consuming the federal budget.

When we examine the current economic climate and the daily news, it is clear that there is widespread popular discontent. The impression they give you is that there is no way to beat the system -- that you are stuck in a debtor's prison without any resources to protect what little assets you have left.

All points lead to what could be seen as a financial firestorm. All that is needed is one spark, and you will have to decide how to hang on to what little assets you have.
