    China will accelerate their conversion of dollars to hard assets in the coming months. Uncle Sam will end up bailing out California, flooding the world with even more fiat currency.

    Yeah, it's a sad comment on how much the dollar has depreciated
    in a generation. Most kids laugh like I'm senile when I tell them you could buy a new vehicle for $7k in the '80s.

    I don't like the idea of a "pay czar", but I like even less that CEOs and board of directors don't practice what they preach. I don't recall hearing any of these guys taking a 90% pay cut, although several of my stocks have.

    As for derivatives, too little and too late. If these time bombs were going to be used as securities, they should have been regulated from day 1. These guys are printing their own money. I believe the only allowed options should be commodities. They should be used as insurance, as they were intended!

    What a load of crap. I don't recall this kind of angst when billions in bonus money went to defense contractors. Wasteful spending only seems to count when the donkeys are in the White House. What do you expect when the revolving door goes from regulators to Wall Street?
