popey: Comments (64) Following•gopetition.com Yes your analysis on economic growth is cogent. But you fail to give a forecast for the treasury market over 5 years.

With the massive deficit spending, tepid tax revenues, blowout budgets and a weak dollar, the USA has a real systemic risk at a basic and fundamental level. Thus at a core structural level you could actually make a case for a collapse in long dated treasuries over the next couple of years. And if that happens, the USA will change for ever.

Treasury Bonds: Here Comes the Bull Market Flattener http://seekingalpha.com/article/163893-treasury-bonds-here-comes-the-bull-market-flattener?source=feed#comment-702156 702156 Guys & Girls we all know we have a U.S.A, problem.
We have children in College that hate the foreigners because they work so hard our kids most of them resent the foreigners.
Our Joe public hasn't saved in 35 years big deal he's scared poop now so he's saving a few lousy dollars. Get off this Govt. B/S that savings rates are getting better it's like trying to stockpile food after a atomic attack duh duh.
O.K. forget older people going to live with their kids this is malarkey.
Our so called kids 25 to 45 yrs old,are going to be doing more of the same leaching off mom and dad. Generation (WiDE-SCREEN) as in T.V.for their priorities every toy in creation.
Back to L.T. Bonds it's retired people that have saved the supply of money that the Govt, used via L.T.Bonds to keep the services going.
Well these low rates make insolvent banks make money but they can't lend enough and collect the payments to keep the game above water.
People are not spending except prior to (Back to School) call me "Rodney Dangerfield'
If you don't give retired people enough interest to live on with the eventual inflation who is going to bail them out? We must have a guaranteed rate of 6 percent on 30 year T.bonds. With a tips C.O.L.A. so if we see 1980ish inflation the rates go up to reduce inflation and keep retired people with enough money to live.
I'm certain that you remember that rates on notes were 16 percent and L.T.Bonds between 12,5% and i hear if you were a broker 15 % which i saw 12,5 in the paper but 15% never made it to the paper it was scurried away by the brokers and M.L. etc. long before the public ever had a chance. AU went to 855+
We must bring money back into the savings arena but real money not fiat just printed wet money not even dry yet.
Only Savors have this but they save as it is their way. Not out of temporary fear duh duh.
We must not give our money to corporate America for free by buying stocks as they will not pay dividends and increase profits we are still paying auto workers $50.00 an hour.
We must reward people that have done things right.]]>

Why Economists Messed Up http://seekingalpha.com/article/160264-why-economists-messed-up?source=feed#comment-665819 665819 Is w/s just a money pit to suck in novice investors to get free money to use to float businesses during times of distress.
They Don't Provide Jobs For American workers.
So how are real people going to drive the market. The savers have been people that saved for retirement, now mostly older people have earned money that they place for living on deposit.
Where can you go there isn't any place to invest in a income portfolio .
We need jobs or the turnaround will stall like a pig that tries to fly. ]]>

I figure food for a 6 month period and after that if they don't get things working well you better move someplace else. No i really figure i should move before the 6 months but where.
I 'm sickened by America's ways as i knew this was coming and my Corp. pension is worthless the Govt is as bad and if you go some where what makes people think another country will want people from the U.S.A.
The ugly American???? Do you blame them?
Where are yo going to work as a senior citizen really?
I want out now i don't want to wait the banks will take a holiday ordered by the govt and they will share your left over money to keep the riots under control for a few months. Hey yeah call a lawyer! More likely some loyal guy that used to be your boyscout leader from the National guard will follow a govt order call you a threat to society and your house will go up in smoke in 30 seconds and in this way legally the insurance company doesn't have to pay as it will be a act of insurgence a war like event. Your bank account will be frozen like in the 1930's
Folks Find a remote place bring food seeds and fuel and medicine and don't forget to change your address so the govt sends your social security check forwarding it to you and your family. Remember the post man always delivers.
Any savings you have will be used to support the needy and you well your just one of those collateral damages they speak of. Naturally this could never happen this is America not Durfur.
And i'm gonna work as a stand up com-mic so i can laugh myself to death.
The Govt in power right now walked into this mess and it has been brewing for decades so. You'll be like a space shuttle that runs out of fuel just past the half way mark to it's destination and can't turn back or get where it's going for what to survive for another month.What would you do if tomorrow your bank or broker shut down and the govt did what the State govt did last time the insurance companies went bad in N.Y.S. and they paid off from the fund 35 cents to the dollar for a life time of work to helpless people? Doesn't anyone want to speak about the reality of what is? What good is a Home owners policy that the ins. cos. are already reneging on by cutting the most important needed benefit for your area because they want to retain capital. you pay for 25 years and then they stick it to you all preplanned and you have no where to go.
They are doing it to your insurance agents policy as well.
If they print this lets see if or how others really feel about this.
Thanks guys for reading this as the market's gobbledygook won't be worth printing or reading later on.

Why China Can't Dump U.S. Treasuries http://seekingalpha.com/article/120547-why-china-can-t-dump-u-s-treasuries?source=feed#comment-388432 388432




(From The Retired One)
I will say this there is no reason for China while it is building up it's economic base to dump it's treasuries as the amount of money they make selling to America off sets the looses it takes in inflation over the years.
Remember China has a population that is so big to employ big enough to have cheap uneducated workers making us the toys we buy (expand on that to every piece of needless junk American's spend money on) to be happy and in debt all the time.. As well as highly educated people that can give every American company a run for it's money for many products for industry and consumer items. Americans are not hard working the way we used to be just look at the fact that we are only paying down our credit card debt because we are out of hand. How many times do you think the world will fall for the Garbage we sold them with the C.M.O. and all stuffed C.D.O.with junk bond status holdings. Yeah American's are smart we cut off the trust of England and Germany and all of Europe and Asia selling them packaged fraudulent investments to friends!
That our American College Grads, work hard packaging near worthless investments, screwing countries and people that will wiss on our economic bankrupt graves some day.
Right now for the foreseeable future we need each other and one thing is certain we have to learn to get along.

People should stop renewing all contracts for as long as it takes to force them out. I have no investment in this company except that my 1 year old van has a radio with a C.D. player which i have purchased four sets of C.D.'s and a 2 Mb apple thingamagiggie my grandson got me to download several hundred songs and programs on and patch into the system.So many of my friends have been buying this for so long and doing so instead of saving for their retirement each month. It reminds me of Bernie Ebbers of Worldcom.
Now do you really think without clear documentation that after all these years pockets haven't been lined and no real true effort made for the stockholders to know the true use of their investment money. Look it's not broadband internet wide band high defination bull crapola it's just a radio signal.I'm sorry so many have been suckered for so long with no real chance for true success. Nice idea for the Bernie Ebbers of this world remember rent excess space for nest to nothing from empty satellite transmission (unused signal capacity).
Cheap as hell but not off rate useage discount for the customers duh.
The original buyers that knew it was what it is and stopped buying with prudence and expectation of the outcome. good for them they will come out o.k.if they can find buyers willing to wait and hope for a credible buyer and manager. The rest i feel bad for them the weight of that pryamid What i felt was a jab in the back of the stock holders is the exchange saying they were going to do a delisting threatening people.
Gee did they do that to Citi Bank?
I mean just look at the price what is it they have gold tiolet seats or something! I know it's a different exchange but after all is Bernie Madoff near this deal?
America love it or pish on it at least then maybe the grass may grow.

General Electric: Genuine Risk of Collapse? http://seekingalpha.com/article/106445-general-electric-genuine-risk-of-collapse?source=feed#comment-315381 315381 A while ago prior to the market hitting the $hitter I was interested in G.E. after hours of reading i found a article written by a stock market offical that said even the Govt. can't get a correct read on G.E. because i believe citi corp or citibank is composed of so many entities that no one can get a straight accounting figured out because their booking is so convoluted that no one can resally figure it out.
I will tell you this being that the American consumer is 75 % of the retail market and they couldn't sell their home appliance division, tells you they had their head in the sand as when the realty market hit the skids G.E. should have seen it coming but they didn't.
I know they have a contract to selll china aprox 1 1/2 dozen mini nuke reactors. But if the world economy stays the way it's going this may be delayed, notice G.E. doesn't mention it anymore.
By the way Warren Buffett has preferred stock that pays him i read 11 percent and he has 15 years to conclude his half of the agreement he probably figures they all will be so old who cares thery can bleed the tax payer to bail out G.E. and in the long run the wind turbines they have sold quite a few will help keep them above water.
but i feel for you and your Mom i lost my 80 percent of my pension from a fortune that was a humanguss retail company $**** just reinvested or rather divested
the cash coming into the registers into Stock broker, a loser and now mails out notices not to worry as the govt has a pension guarentee fund.
The entire system is being stolen blind by corp c.e.o.'s
no matter the industry where do you go when you're retired and you can't sell or afford your home anymore.
Plus i have to sell due to medical reasons and move.
good luck with your move ionvestment wise.

Is California's Economy Sending a Warning Signal? http://seekingalpha.com/article/101087-is-california-s-economy-sending-a-warning-signal?source=feed#comment-288101 288101 Too many have lived beyound their means and used the money offered to them by bonus greedy banking .mortgage Co's and bankers that get a yearly bonus
based on the projected profit by the numbers of mortgages they write. then they fudge the applicatioins just enough to screee freddy mac and fannie mae to buy the mortgage and screw the tax payers for a bail out. Then B ear Sterns and lehgman Bros and citi and chase sell this crap to England and scottland rating the C.M.O. "AAA" When it was half full of the fudged application and mortages that were sold to American agency's that were trusting banking to do things by crtedible banking standards.
Lost when we had our bank examiners fired in 1980's
so the big boys could play with our savings.
That's right it started rtight after the S&L blow out set up by the Go0od old boys from 1980 to 1992.
Now 8 more years of rule by the son of the monster thieves .
Desert Storm and now Iraq.
Now they want you to look at joblessness and the stock market see the trees from the forrest.
