to this headline portugal considers paying public workers and treasury bills instead of cash the portuguese government is considering a plan to pay public workers and pensioners one month of their salary and treasury bills rather than cash after high court ruled out wage cuts so here you have a situation where as your head says this plan makes perfect sense because with every central bank openly monetizing its debt it is effectively made debt and cash equivalent so this is that that myth that sort of world reality that margaret thatcher created that we don't know where wealth comes from anymore that the notion is just to extend your debt to as far as possible. and hope for the best for the good pay them as such the iou is going to california pay the workers an iou is now people are being paid and i use the treasury bill as an iou it is the definition of monetizing debt it's what the french happened in france leading up to revolution with the acid not which was just basically debt based currency and of course the after that was the revolution stacy ever thank so much being on the kaiser repo
