  • Stagflation and the Limits of Growth [View article]
    Ok - I accept the theory. Its the timeframe that is important. How much time are we talking about ? I'm thinking 5 years. Thats a lot of stagnation and pain. During that time the standard of living in the US for the middle and lower classes will be declining. Our populist politicians are already blocking new free trade and will have even more power after the next election. Sounds like a recipe for the next depression.

  • Why I'm Not Worried About the Market  [View article]
    Seems to me we have the choice of a recession which will control inflation or we print money to avoid the credit issues and unleash the inflation genie. Either way pollyanna is not a good investment strategy
