What the world needs.. ESPECIALLY THE USA ... is alot less debt and living within your means. If growth is the sole goal of monetary policy at any cost than we should get alot more Greenspans into the policy making positions. Oh wait... wasn't he the bone head who got us into this mess in the first place.... wasn't he the one who was knighted by the Queen for all he did for the English private bankers. IE the Fed.
Just because higher interest rates were introduced in the Great Depression doesn't mean that lower interest rates will solve the problem especially since there were no derivatives in the dirty 30s. The world has a humongous problem and piling more debt on debt is not solution.]]> Wed, 10 Dec 2008 09:19:47 -0500 For my money all this lowering of interest rates does is promote more borrowing and more debt.

Your Government... not so much.
Hey ours in no screaming hell either..
What do you folks recommend as far as gold... the bullion or the gold stocks or ETF??]]> Wed, 03 Dec 2008 09:17:10 -0500 Nice to see that there are some Americans with tons of smarts ... always what I regarded as a smart nation... Your Government... not so much.

If that doesn't scare the crap out of the US I just don't know what does. Yes... help the home owners because they pay taxes and drive the economy.... DO NOT push down rates in the hope this will stimulate people to get into MORE DEBT.
You have no more cash. You are insolvent. Stop spending money you don't have. What is the point of having cheap money if the price of the products... ie houses... are still astronomically high..
STOP SPENDING MONEY YOU DON"T GOT.]]> Thu, 27 Nov 2008 09:17:10 -0500 Look at your GDP to debt ratio chart... If that doesn't scare the crap out of the US I just don't know what does.

This action by Paulson will go down in history as the single biggest swindle of the largest group of people in the world.
Bush has single handedly gutted the US and now is off on a lifetime vacation with a sweetheart pension and tons of cash to do what he wishes while his country, and the world, goes down the tubes.
Swindlers. Who cares about Bernanke.. If he goes below 1% then what
Free money. Oh forgot... he already is doing that

SO TRUE. In a free market system there should be you live and die by the sword rules . NO BAILOUT You guys are truly right. Harmful to your kids and their kids and even their kids TRUE TRUE TRUE. This is a hastily crafted piece of garbage being shoved down the American's throats . Shouldn't this take months to draft?
Come on my dear friends in the State PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU. If your government has 700 Billion burning a hole in its pocket then use it for something that will provide decades of stimulation, build roads, bridges, hospitals, schools for underpriviledged, computer schools ... put teachers and professionals back to work. That would create a new economy. THIS BAILOUT will only create debt for you and your children for decades. Your president has irretrievably failed you Americans and us, the rest of the world.
I am truly sickened to my stomach that my dear friends to the south must endure this .. Loss of jobs, 911, Katrina, GM and Ford and Chrysler declines, loss of houses, bankruptcy. Haven't you been through enough AND NOW you are handed a bill that your grandchildren may never be able to pay. This sickens me to the core people. Please march onto the Whitehouse and speak your disdain for this unholy solution.]]> Fri, 26 Sep 2008 12:44:04 -0400 How about other options? Why just ONE? An expensive one at that

As I pointed out in earlier posts. Spend the 700 billion on infrastructure... put people back to work... that would create prosperity for generations. This bailout will created debt for generations. This cannot be allowed to happen to the most amazing people on the earth.
I truly cannot see how this can be allowed to happen. A dark day in history.]]> Thu, 25 Sep 2008 16:09:38 -0400 I have such a sickening feeling for my friends down in the States over this matter.

Why should the profits on wall street be privatized and the losses be socialized?? I truly don't get this. Change the rules in the middle of the game.... How convenient for Paulson's buddies at Goldmann.
