Reckless government spending is pushing the nation toward a fiscal cliff. The mechanism is straightforward but often overlooked: when lawmakers spend beyond their revenue, prices inevitably climb. This isn't some obscure economic theory—it's a hidden tax that erodes purchasing power for everyone.



Government expenditure that exceeds tax intake directly fuels inflation. The currency in your wallet becomes worth less. For investors and crypto participants, this dynamic is particularly important to understand, as it shapes monetary policy and asset valuations across the entire financial ecosystem.

ngl, the inflation mechanism here is technically correct but the causality chain requires further auditing. government overspending ≠ automatic price climb—there's implementation details they're glossing over. demand destruction, velocity collapse, all that gets swept under the rug...

technically speaking, the "hidden tax" framing is interesting but let's dissect this... deficit spending → inflation pipeline has some questionable implementation details nobody talks about. monetary expansion != price ceiling necessarily. audit findings suggest it's way more nuanced than lawmakers-bad-go-brr narrative tbh

That's why the proportion of crypto in my asset allocation is increasing more and more. The devaluation of fiat currency is really no joke.

NGL, the government is printing money like crazy, and inflation is taking off in minutes. Will my BTC still be valuable?
