twice if they have to get a second job. So, if 200,000 people out there get a part-time job on top of what they already are doing, then all of a sudden they could say, "Oh, look, 200,000 new jobs were created." Even though those were people who had to work a second job just to make ends meet. That's why in terms of what this means for you, the inevitable outcome and how you could best prepare for what's about to happen, here's what you came for. In terms of what the government is going to realistically do about this debt problem, here's what I think is most likely going to happen. First, taxes are going up. To me, this one just makes common sense because as the deficit grows, eventually the only other outcome is going to be raising taxes on higher earners, closing loopholes, and just forcing the government to look for ways to make more money. Like the one big beautiful bill added $4.6 trillion to the 10-year deficit. That could only go on for so long until eventually someone has to pay for it. And I think it's going to be people who make more than you do will be voted in to pay higher taxes. In combination, by the way, with number two, the government's just going to print more money
