Yellen was Right, the Federal Debt “Should Keep People Awake at Night”

"If the burden of interest payments increases, will Congress make the difficult decisions required to reduce federal spending? What contingency plan do Yellen and Powell have in their back pocket if the dollar suffers a speculative attack owing to an unsound fiscal position? Yellen was right: 'It’s the type of thing that should keep people awake at night.'" ~ James L. Caton
