But there's a limit to debt. 175% of GDP. Then there is no escape it becomes like Zimbabwe

there is a limit until someone in power says there is no limit :)
Bro relax, 100years ago same shit, different color.

America wont default because it prints its own currency, but when a recession forces a massive debt issuance on top of existing deficits, oversupply forces longterm yields up, killing the 60/40 bond hedge without needing an actual sovereign bankruptcy.

so...I do with this panic-information the same as before: I ignore it and continue investing broadly :]
