I can give you a range. In 5 years, we'll have a profit of $20 trillion. In 10 years, a profit of $900 trillion.
Hmm...I think Ill stick with GnI on this one...
Makes me think of when me and a few friends got on an elevator, we looked at it and it said, "7 persons or 2000lbs maximum weight"...We looked at eachother and went "Lets stick with the 7 persons"
Right. He said $20 trillion PROFIT in 5 years to a question of how much debt we will have. Considering we are almost $12 trillion in debt now, that is a profit of $6.4 trillion per year for the next 5 years. That us 2.5 times larger than the revenues the government has ever generated and is almost half of our economy. Yeah, that's very reasonable.
