This Sunday, we decided to take a break from the serious business of the debt ceiling, federal deficit, Federal Reserve policy, banking crisis, and the rest of the list. Instead, we would like to offer three visual metaphors that depict the difficulties of the decision-making process that drives the list above.
Here’s the first one, which suggests what the central banks and market agents would like to see done to uppity inflation.

We’ll end this Sunday with a link to a 2016 Congressional Research Service report that discusses “Has the government ever defaulted?” The summary takes about as long to read as one of the YouTubes did to watch.
