PRU Stock News Headlines

Fine. Don’t believe me.
They called me an alarmist... When in 2010 I said America’s debt was out of control. When I warned it would unleash a wave of civil unrest, society collapse, inflation, and currency debasement, they called me crazy. When I said the dollar’s reign was coming to an end… that interest payments would one day overwhelm our budget… they said: that’ll never happen here. And yet – here we are. America’s national debt just blew past $37 trillion.
