Rogers, it is the former. Good question, btw. And the picture is always mixed, when you look at it from a global perspective.

“Quantitative easing” – what a concept. Chile, Japan, Zimbabwe…. history has taught us nothing.

And we keep doing the same things expecting different results…relecting the same politicians and same political parties.

Bill – What about Gold, you hardly ever mention it these days and Gold demand is getting huge, we now have over a dozen scrap gold dealers advertising to buy second hand gold on national TV stations here in the UK, also the gold price is getting to touching point of $1000 oz, do you think this is in anticipation of the inflationary phase as the world seems to be convinced of recovery or do you think investers are slowly selling stocks and hiving it away in gold in anticipation of a winter crash on the markets, I know last year gold fell in line with stocks but this year could be different?

Bill, maybe you’re right. I’ve been being retarded what with the ignorant optimism.

I’ll do better.

“Still, just because a thing is hopeless doesn’t make it unpopular. The feds are fighting the correction every step of the way. They’re propping up brain-dead companies…and keeping zombie banks going by feeding them the blood of taxpayers. It’s ghoulish…it’s a very scary movie!”

That’s a great quote.

Will the sense of entitlement also dwindle amoung recent college grads and high schoolers? When inflation does come what will happento the familial bonds that were a mainstay of yesteryear? Will the current syndrome of the death of the grown up lead to a correction where grown ups actually are financially, morally and communitywise, more grown up and responsible? Will television also change its current useless broadcasting into something more of quality? The point of my questions is that an economic change of this sort has huge corrections that people are not even aware of. Maybe we as a society are due for a correction also.
