1598: Guardrails

War as a Liquidity Event for the Military-Industrial Complex

The hosts characterize the conflict as a necessary "liquidity event" for the military-industrial complex and the global financial system. They note that the war provides a justification for massive money printing and government spending at a time when funding for Ukraine was facing congressional hurdles. They point out the convenience of the current lack of a statutory debt ceiling in the United States.
