Oh well, I guess I just don’t “understand” modern economics.

On the other hand, the more economic conservative ** German government seems to be doing well even though they are not following the Bush-Obama-Bernanke-Bailout Hope-N-Change philosophy:

Could it possibly be that a stable currency and fiscal restraint leads to investment and growth?? Duhhh??

** Note to Palin-Huckabee Worship society – I said ECONOMIC Conservativism, not this revival-tent
social conservatism leads to prosperity.

Yes siree that’s the way to go. Call it the land of the free and the home of the stupid.

I bought more gold and silver today in anticipation of the coming devaluation of those putrid Federal Reserve Notes everyone has to use on penalty of fine, imprisonment, or death. We can thank the evil legal tender laws for that.

A second safe is being delivered, too. Never trust the banks and their
(un)safe deposit boxes. See FDR’s 1933 gold confiscation for details.

And there are more precious metal coins stored outside the country – just in case.

I’m getting prepared. Are you?

The Fed is pushing on a string, trying to make the government the Consumer Of Last Resort in order to “Stimulate” the economy.

The minute bondholders around the world begin to realize the Fed is printing money, they’ll begin selling (faster than they already are). The danger is that the trickle could turn to a flood, and our dollar could then be wiped out very, very quickly.

I hope everyone reading this is making preparations. Better to be prepared and not have it happen than to be unprepared.
