  1. Hah! What are the terms on federal debt? I’ve hunted around but haven’t yet gotten a straight compilation of the percentages in overnight, five day, one moth, three month, six, one year, two, three, five, ten, thirty. How many hundred billions rolls over today? Tomorrow? Next week, month, year? The shortest term money is cheapest I’m guessing, therefore a whole heaping shitload of federal debt is in very short term borrowing, again I’m guessing. Raise rates? Significantly? I’m betting… not likely.
