Dalio has outlined methods for policymakers to stabilize the debt at that degree and has referred to as for Congress to tackle the problem in a bipartisan method like within the Nineties, when the federal authorities final ran a surplus.

“If they don’t, we’re going to have a supply/demand problem for debt at the same time as we have these other problems. And the results of that will be worse than a normal recession,” Dalio mentioned.

Welker requested Dalio in one other follow-up query what he views as a worst-case state of affairs for the financial system.
