A Quote by Michael Hudson

The only way people can repay the debt is by cutting their living standards very drastically. It means agreeing to shift their pension plans from defined benefit plans - when you know what you're going to get - into just "defined contribution plans," where you put money in, like into a roach motel, and you don't know what's coming out.

You look at the savings health insurance, there's so many great ways you can do that. You'll get great plans at much less money, at much less money. I mean, these people are being just killed. And you know the 25% was put out by Washington 'cause the real number could be three times that amount. I mean, it's catastrophic what's going on.

I think about quitting all the time. I'll take such a little thing and be like, "I quit! I've had enough of you people!" And then...I don't know, it gets better. I'm not really good at making plans so I don't have any definite plans for the future. I would love to have a family and kids at some point.

We have a very robust set of plans. And people have looked at both of our plans, have concluded that mine would create 10 million jobs and yours [Donald Trump] would lose us 3.5 million jobs, and explode the debt which would have a recession.
