For the first time in US history, interest payments on non-mortgage debt in the US are equivalent to interest on mortgage debt, at $575 billion.
Exactly 3 years ago, interest on non-mortgage debt was at $250 billion.
This marks a 130% increase in household interest expense on non-mortgage items over just 3 years.
Furthermore, 3 years ago interest on non-mortgage debt was HALF of interest on mortgage debt.
Americans are "fighting" inflation with high interest rate debt.
How is this sustainable?

Everyone I talk to is struggling. If things continue at this pace, Americans will lose their shit. Thank god I finished The Mandibles, seems like mobility is key….. that and securing ur stack.
Look at Argentina 🇦🇷 or the third world
The American reaction to this lingering financial hardship will be unlike anything the world has ever seen.
The coddled Americans values, identity and beliefs will be snapped like a twig under fiats boots.
We live in a world where anything above 4 percent interest is a catastrophe
Great point. We need to start somewhere and remember anything above zero compounds!
Non-Bitcoin escape valves:
Yes great list. Hold on for the ride. It’s gonna be wild!
This isn't and we definitely will be the lucky ones because we have Bitcoin as a saviour.
Yes, joining Bitcoin class of ATH 2021 I seemed a bit crazy to those I know, but my conviction is so strong now! All the pieces are coming together!
