Is it not true that the Government is able to find buyers for securities It
issues only because It guarantees a return on the investment and because
investors believe in that guarantee?  That ROI is guaranteed the power of
the Government to levy taxes upon the People.  Like a shark that must move
in order to breathe,  the Beast must die if the People refuse to pay taxes
or investors lose faith in the guarantee.
