The fed balance sheet gets bigger like it did with AIG.
Again, how? No one is buying American bonds right now. You can't raise the debt if no one will loan you money
The federal debt and the US treasuries part of the fed balance sheet is how much taxes should increase. They're different things, the fed can just buy bonds and put them on its balance sheet.
How much taxes should increase?
