For the first five months of the 2025 fiscal year, federal spending is coming in at the highest level ever. This is true even when we adjust for CPI inflation.

Shocker
Didn't you make a bet about the debt not hitting some level like $40T during the year?
YEEESSSIIR. ... but @mega_dreamer beat out the competition (it was on Bitcoinprediction.market, and they closed down).
And it was "by July 4th."
And it won't.

I didn't realize they closed down. Did you get a refund?
Yup, yup. All good
Should we create a similar market at Predyx?
Maybe a different number, but the idea is good.
Please give me the number.
@denlillaapan, what’s the most interesting target number and date for this?
I haven't looked at the deets since I made the bet. Gotta pull up the spreadsheet and draw some lines
40trn by July is too unreachable, even by Trumpian extravaganzes
$38tn? Or 40 by end of year
Bitcoin issuance on track to be the lowest ever.
Did you see that you have competition now for posting about how dumb Canada is?
I am not surprised. The depths of available material would rival the Mariana Trench.
Statement from my team today.
Hey is it possible to dm someone on SN? Or should we get another post going for our league to communicate?
You used to be able to DM by depositing sats and adding a comment to another user but unfortunately we don't seem to be able to do that anymore. I thought that is what the league chat is for. But we can get another post going and I will pin it if you want.
I need to just leave my team's tab open. It's too easy for me to get distracted and forget to set my lineup.
I usually go to espn to check sats and scores anyways so I just check the league when I am there but I haven't looked at it today.
Why do you have 13 starting pitchers? Haha.
This is why I wanted the lineups to be set once per week. So we didn't need to check every day to see who is starting.
I'm punting saves+holds for the time being and aiming for more QS and W and Ks
I have seen a baseball team with 13 starting pitchers. You are a fantasy savant.
Lol I get that it's a bit unorthodox hahaha. In hindsight I wish I gave us at least 2 or 3 utility slots. Can't change it now
I basically do set my lineup once per week. Things can get shifted with rainouts and injuries though....
Least surprising thing I have seen today.
It's not the largest deficit ever. That's a little surprising.
The ratio of debt servicing to total expenditure is probably higher than its ever been though.
Insolvency looms.
