Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.

Their intent is to hyperinflate and default. I really think that's where Geithner and company have figured it needs to go .

It's interesting that while people speculate what the newly elected US govt officials will or will not do,

the unelected ones, Bernanke and the rest of the Fed, have gone ahead with an unprecedented second $600 billion so-called quantitative easing scheme.

Actually, this is just a German-centric restatement of what the TP has been on about . When you hear Ron Paul going after the Fed , and the file people riffing on bankrupting the future , this is part of it . The fact that the rest of the world ( almost unanimously, that I can see) is standing with people repeatedly portrayed as nothing less than idiot yokels maybe ought to make some people question a few basic assumptions.

CS, I'm afraid we're passed the point where people are talking about policy that makes sense.

All that is left is for Jesus to return and to tell us Kafka was his true spokesman. And the joke is on us.

On the other hand, predictions are difficult to make . . . especially about the future.

Fed Head Volcker was strongly criticized far and wide for his actions, including raising the prime lending rate, back in his day.

Yet today he is revered as the wise grand old man of banking and finance.

It just occurred to me as I was giving an entertaining act for my wife on exactly what the FOREX markets and US debt situation was like . I do this sometimes to explain complex points , and as I am an accomplished stand up comedian and actor, in addition to just being generally the shit , hilarity ensued , I assure you .

The upshot was that it is amazing to me that we are now in a position where we still have the rest of the world lined up to buy our debt , which is understood to never actually be repaid to speak of , or else have their current wealth evaporate . We are talking the wealth of several billion people, put together at the price of shackles and millions of gravestones , just getting to the point where they want refrigerators and college educations, like this Jimmy Walker they see on TV . And now ? It 's a race to the bottom as they have to rape their own populations to keep up with us , or the raping will just get worser than it is already worsened . Bugger thy neighbor, more like it, I say .

And our defense now, our level fucking best one ? The rates are still low. She didn't say no. The old guy didn't fight back .

How do I get out of this chickenshit outfit ? I want to go home , take off this uniform and leave the show . Oh, wait, they are shit oh goodness all over home . They are everywhere . What are the chances that, if I were to give you back the beads and blankets, you guys would take half my genetic code and go back to Europe ? Before white man, there was no debt , no taxes , and women did all the work . White man thought he could improve on that .

No worries , a bit of firewater fill fix it , there, eh Odin ?

Don't know what it is, but I'm agin'it.
