Would the US government have done better to invest a trillion dollars in the stock market?

If ANYONE "invested a trillion dollars in Twitter or Facebook" the market for both would come to a complete halt...

They wouldn't have "doubled their money" at all...

Twitter has a Market cap that is a third of that, and Facebook has a Market cap of an eighth of that...

ALSO you clearly misunderstand the nature of "the debt"....it is BOND obligations due to be paid out over the next 10, 20, or 30 years....not something the US can just "choose to pay off tomorrow"...

People who own US Treasury Bonds BOUGHT those Bonds as a future income stream, and they be pretty pissed-off if you just "gave them their principle back", LOL!

Turn OFF the Fox News and read a book, dammit! Learn something!
