Episode with Snek on Bond & rest of finance market

The US bond market faces a potential meltdown driven by unsustainable debt, aggressive foreign policy, and the Trump administration's fiscal maneuvers. Scott Bessent’s bond buyback scheme, which replaces low-yield long-term bonds with expensive short-term debt, creates a hidden risk of ballooning debt servicing costs. Simultaneously, geopolitical tensions—specifically the Iran conflict and strained relations with the UK—are alienating traditional foreign buyers of US Treasuries, forcing them to liquidate assets to stabilize their own currencies. This instability, coupled with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the potential for a major financial rupture, threatens to erode the US dollar's real value. While major tech companies currently maintain cash reserves to sustain AI investments, a broader credit crunch could trigger a 2008-style collapse, exposing the fragility of current global financial and military commitments.
