Duh, that is what a currency is. You issue a paper (OK, this has to
be done by the FEDs, not by Congress per se, but that is a minor
difference) and use it. You now have a debt to the one you handed
it to. This is exactly what a fiat currency is. It has value because
you say so. 

There are _no_ assets (not debt, the other side of the balance
sheet) backing the dollar. No gold, no other currencies, no shares, 
only unsecured bonds, no raw materials. The bonds are just a bridge
between the FED and Congress; which makes a thin veneer that this
is a backed currency.

And so are the vast majority of other currencies too, although some
use the US currency as a collateral, still following Bretton Woods
40+ years after it broke. 

Issuing currency this way is a very lucrative business. You get
interest free loans from everybody, and can place that money into
interest bearing or revenue generating instruments.

This behaves like a rubber band. If you have trust, you can issue
more, just like if the band holds you can stretch it longer. But the
moment that trust breaks it will unravel very suddenly.

The Saudi family is the US most important financial ally, yes. They

That was reaganomics. It has some quite limited operational
limits, and will not work nearly as well in todays environment.

What?  Neither Reagan, Bush nor Dubya ever had a surplus; the core of
Reaganomics is massive tax cuts for the rich plus massive defense
spending, which inevitably results in massive deficits.

Clinton had the _only_ surplus in the last 40 years, and it was mostly
by doing the _opposite_ of Reaganomics: big tax hikes for the rich and
flat (before inflation) defense spending.

> It has some quite limited operational limits, and will not work
> nearly as well in todays environment.

Obama reversed Dubya's tax cuts, taking us back to Clinton's rates, and
cut defense spending; the deficit shrank and the economy recovered, so
it seems like Clintonomics still works just fine--unlike Reaganomics.
Of course, Dubya left Obama a bigger mess than Reagan and Bush left to
Clinton, so it's taking longer, but the record so far is quite clear.

Obama only _partially_ reversed GWBs tax  cuts.  The GWB rates remain in
effect for  individuals earning 2K,  families earning 2.5K.   The Repubs
reluctantly went  along with  this but  assured us that  the end  of the
world was upon us.

He reinstated the 39.6% bracket for ordinary income and linked 20%
bracket for LTCG/QD income.  That Dubya's most important change.

There is no such tax bracket.  If you're referring to some credit or
deduction, that's a slightly different matter, but taxing individuals
earning so little has a negligible effect on total revenues.  Cutting
taxes on the poor, unlike cutting taxes on the rich, _does_ stimulate
the economy, so it would not make sense to raise their taxes anyway.

That's the 39.6% bracket mentioned above, which is for people making
far, far more than $2K/$2.5K.

Clinton had the 39.6% bracket at $288K/$288K.  Dubya got rid of that
bracket entirely, so they dropped into the 36% bracket.  Obama tried to
bring it back at $200K/$250K, but the GOP wanted it at $1M/$1M; they
eventually compromised at $400K/$400K.  The 20% bracket for LTCG/QD
income came back at the same time, for the same people.

So, yes, Obama didn't reverse Dubya's tax cut for a few people between
$288K and $400K, but did for the millions of people over $400K, which
have far more income now subject to the higher rates anyway.

Which explains why the US doesn't make much noise about the Saudis
having financed 9-11 and the spread of militant Islam. Why we let the
Saudi relatives slip out of the country when they are accused of
crimes. And why though we scream when ISIS beheads a few people, we
say nothing when the Saudis behead even more.

As the aphorism attributed to LBJ goes, "when they've got you by the
balls, your heart and mind will follow".

I was trying to be technically accurate.

A fiat currency would be if the Treasury printed dollars with nothing
backing them.  Monetized debt is when the Treasury prints T-bills and
the Federal Reserve prints dollars to buy them.

The first practical difference is that the Federal Reserve (or whoever
they sell those T-bills on to) is charging the Treasury interest on the
outstanding debt.

The second is that the Federal Reserve is now allowed to monetize
_other_ countries' debt, not just the US's, which is what allowed the
dollar to become the world's main reserve currency.  If a non-reserve
currency did this, it would almost certainly cause hyperinflation.

> And so are the vast majority of other currencies too, although some

> 40+ years after it broke.

Breton Woods, i.e. using reserve currencies (rather than gold) to back
your own, was the solution to the gold standard breaking.

All major currencies, and most minor ones, are monetized debt.

There are a handful of minor currencies that are pegged to reserve
currencies, rather than being monetized debt in their own right, but
that is just national pride; there is no practical difference vs them
putting the underlying reserve currency in circulation.

AFAIK, the only true fiat currency is Cuba's non-convertible peso, and
that is the very _reason_ it's non-convertible.  Cuba's convertible peso
_is_ backed by reserve currencies under Breton Woods.

Even if you don't agree with everything they spend money on, at least
they're willing to raise taxes to pay for it, which is at least more
fiscally responsible than the alternative.

Also, the combined cost of all on-budget social programs is a drop in
the bucket compared to what we could save by eliminating defense waste
that the _Pentagon_ wants to cut but is forced by Congress to keep.

Do we know how big the drop for Obamacare is?  I assume millions have been 
added to the Medicaid rolls for life and millions more have subsidized 
health care, a great many of them also for life.  The insurance rates 
charged by Blue Cross, Blue Shield in my state just went up 50% this fall, 
so even more will get subsidized care.  Seems like that might be a pretty 
substantial drop.

CBO says Obamacare is a net savings for the federal govt, and the GOP
implicitly admitted that by waiving the PAYGO rules every time they've
tried to repeal it.

I hadn't heard about PAYGO before your post. I looked it up on Wiki and it 
would take me a couple days to figure out what it said and whether it was 
even applicable. I assume the ACA is in the same category as Social 
Security, it goes on forever as an entitlement. A quick glance tells me this 
might be a class of things not subject to PAYGO.  And I don't have two days 
to spend on this.

This leaves me in the same position I was before the mention of PAYGO, it 
sounds like real voodoo economics! Say the government writes a check to one 
of the smaller insurance companies for $100,00,000 for some minor service. 
What is the bookkeeping entry that neutralizes that?

In the paygo thing I note that Bush's idiotic Part D thing, has an estimated 
cost of $44B per year.  And that program has to be miniscule compared to the 
ACA.  And it was exempted from PAYGO by some hand waving.

PAYGO is simple enough.
You simply don't pass new legislation that costs the government
money unless you raise revenue to cover the costs.

As stated, Part D was enacted without any attempt to pay for
the expanded coverage,  Those costs are:

About $26 billion is spent for the about 10 million low-income Medicare
beneficiaries...
About $20 billion is premium support that allows about 10 million
middle-income Medicare beneficiaries and the rest of the people on Part
C...
About $13 billion of the Part D budget covers re-insurance for
catastrophic drug costs as described above.

So, a quick look gives us $59 billion in new deficit spending.

As you should know, the ACA does not increase the deficit.
Provisions of the ACA include new revenue generating taxes.

It's quite simple.  In a nutshell, Congress cannot pass a bill that
raises spending without raising taxes to pay for it, i.e. deficit
spending.  However, since PAYGO is a mere "rule", not part of the
Constitution, Congress can (and does) waive it via a simple vote
whenever they want.

> A quick glance tells me [Obamacare] might be a class of things not
> subject to PAYGO.

If so, then why does Congress have to vote to waive PAYGO every time
they try to repeal it?

ACA includes several new taxes and reduces other spending, such as
reimbursing hospitals for uninsured patients' unpaid medical bills, and
according to CBO, the net effect of those changes is more than enough to
offset the new entitlement's costs.

That is why Congress _didn't_ need to waive PAYGO to pass the ACA.

Congress voted to waive PAYGO in that case, as often happens; it's
mostly a symbolic measure, but it does allow outsiders to instantly
determine whether a particular bill increases the deficit or not.

Senior citizens aren't about wealth creation, they are
about using what wealth they have previously created.

And clearly people like Barb do live quite well.

And the system works a lot better than it did in say the 1930s.

Actually the reverse, but yes.  That is how any non-fiat money works;
perhaps you are so used to fiat money that you've forgotten (or never
understood) how real money works?

That is one of the reasons why precious metals are preferred: the cost
of extracting them has been essentially unchanged over thousands of
years of civilization.

Also, precious metals are not "consumed" in any real sense, unlike
various proposals to use oil, crops, etc.  The world has the same amount
of gold (and silver) as it did 10,000 years ago.

The usual argument is that there's not enough gold (or silver) to go
around, but one could just as easily base a currency on something much
more common, e.g. copper or iron.  Heck, you could even use water; that
is more valuable than oil in many places.

> If you then adjust the value of the raw material, you end up with
> the same "fiat" nature in the currency.

That is why the gold standard collapsed: politicians tinkered with the
price of gold to allow themselves to inflate the money supply beyond the
actual supply of gold backing it.

Perhaps not.

The opposite of fiat money is not real money.

The opposite for fiat money is just another monetary scheme
