hyperinflation kicks in. You can't keep printing money in such volumes without severe consequences coming home to roost sooner or later.
policy and inflation is like trying to tug a brick with a rubber band, and we ain't in no normal times...
The end result is pretty easy to predict, it's the intermediate that isn't.
We're in debt up to our eyeballs, spending far more than we take in, and, gov't is growing much faster than GDP with no end in sight. It's easy to see where that goes.
For a few particulars, Barack's spending about 24.4% of GDP vs. Clinton's 19.8%. That's 23% more than Clinton. (accounts for ~$715B of the deficit, all by itself.)
Raising taxes won't fix it--long term, over decades, revenues are close 18% almost no matter what the tax rates are.
Spending, FY2013: so far, $1.84 per dollar in revenue. ($346B in, $638B out)(from mts1112.pdf, fms.treas.gov)
If we just limited the growth of government to 1% or 2% for several years while GDP grows, revenues quickly catch up and the situation reverses. But, GDP is stagnant, and Barack won't cut. He wants to spend more.
So, over this term gov't will grow faster than revenue, we'll suck up a few trillion in debt faster than ever, inflate that away to where we can afford the payments, and all grind along for a few decades paying off the party tab. Jimmy Carter's revenge.
(Or, people will panic, stop lending us money--since they know they won't get all of it back--and the house of cards tumbles.) YMMV
