  • U.S. Economy: Sometimes It's Easy to Connect the Dots [View article]
    I was speaking with a friend who is instrumental (FDIC) in closing banks that are on the rocks.

    He estimates he will personally be involved in closing "at least" 400 before the carnage subsides.

    No joke. This from the horse's mouth.

    OK, I get it. But we are all brilliant in retrospect. As I, a long-time blackjack player, like to say, "I always know what I should have done *after* the cards are dealt. It's beforehand that's a little trick."

    WOW! That is the most succinct, powerful, and persuasive (not to mention "terrifying") description of our national predicament I have heard yet. Bravo!

  • Get Ready for Inflation and Soaring Interest Rates [View article]
    Question:

    I have a Canadian friend who feels, since Canadian banks are squeaky-clean compared to ours in the US, that Canada will sail through this mess with little pain, while the rest of the world writhes away.

    Thoughts, anyone?

  • My Four-Line Summary of the G20 Communique [View article]
    "Socialism cannot compete!" says: "Beware the coming 'global financial oversight' -- unelected authorities controlling your financial (and therefore, political, social, etc.) future!!!"

    So right! Our ELECTED so-called leaders are selling out America to UNELECTED authorities, both domestic and foreign. Like the song says, "It's just a matter of time."

    I guess its true: "You get the government you deserve."
