Debt, Debt, Debt...

Just as I'd said, it was bound to happen:
Weak demand at a Treasury bond auction touched off worries in the stock market Thursday about the government's ability to raise funds to fight the recession.

The government had to pay greater interest than expected in a sale of 30-year Treasurys. That is worrisome to traders because it could signal that it will become harder for Washington to finance its ambitious economic recovery plans. The higher interest rates also could push up costs for borrowing in areas like mortgages.

Itoldyaso....

Interest on the debt will rise. The government won't be able to pay. Inflation is imminent.
