Great Depression Not Imminent, But Inevitable

TAS - I agree with you. The US has lots and lots of corruption at all levels of government and at high levels of large corporations.

Contrast this with other countries where everyone and everything is corrupt and you can see why the US will still be on top when the business cycle finally turns around. In lots of places you must buy everyone off to get anything done.

I still see hyperinflation in our future eventually.

Barclays Recommends Caution, Nasty Surprises Ahead

Fred Om, thanks for the interesting take on Gold. Someone should invent a very small machine that can instantly weigh and verify gold and silver content. This would make gold more liquid and perhaps provide an ultimate check on the government and the banksters.

Our government is about to place us all much much further into debt. Many don't care however since they don't have to pay much taxes anyway. Slowly but surely our morality will decline. Liquid gold could put a stop to this.
