NY Fed Model Suggests Economic Recovery Has Started and Recession Will End This Year

Are you serious?

The Great Awakening: Boomers, Your Crisis Has Arrived (Part 3 of 3)

I hate to agree, but I agree with this article. Actually, I feel like I wrote it myself... as pessimistic as it is, I think it is the first article I have read in a while where I don't feel like the author can't see the forest because of the trees.

Let's face it, the time for sugarcoating the predicament we're in with bailouts, TARPS, stimulus plans, etc. are all digging us a deeper hole than we're already in. If we think times are tough now, just wait another 3-5 yrs. Inflation will be a bitch and whatever people are saving now in terms of dollars will get them nothing in 5 yrs. Look at the federal reserve - once that capital hits circulation, the dollar is going to be used for nothing more than kindling for heating our homes.

I understand that this article is going to rub a lot of people the wrong way. But THINK about it. Turn off your CNN for a minute and really think about the big picture - expand your thoughts and look at what the hell is going on. Read Ron Paul's "Revolution." Read Andrew Napolitano's "Nation of Sheep." Start to listen to the few thinkers left in America, and for once, maybe consider that CNN and the New York Times aren't always the basis of realism.

We all need to start looking beyond what has been fed to us for the past 50 yrs and start thinking pragmatically. For the sake of the child I am about to bring into this world, and the author's sons, that is the favor, I believe, Mr. Quinn are asking of everyone.

Let's Just Say It: Print More Money

Just thought this analysis would also prove useful. Just reading the first few pages is argument enough against any case made in this article. Taylor even drew it out in crayon in some nice graphs for everyone who might believe otherwise.

I also think the excerpt from Rothbard's book that Jerusel provided is more than substantial to refute the claims that increasing cash liquidity and using inflation as a fuel for the economy could ever be considered rational.

Let's Just Say It: Print More Money

Wow... Very surprised the SA would publish an article like this... And I used to think Johnny Depp was a jerk for moving to France. I think I might ask him if he has extra room for me soon if we keep going in the direction Dirk is suggesting.

What is also sobering and revealing is the number of responses in support of his ideas here. PEOPLE - THE DEFINITION OF INSANITY IS TO KEEP DOING THE SAME THING AND EXPECTING A DIFFERENT RESULT!!

The sad thing is, these same people would have voted again for our last president, given the opportunity. Thanks for calling it how it is, ANDY1234. Anyone opposed to what Andy said in his post needs to have their heads examined, for sure.
