  • Is Concern for Inflation Inflated?
    We do not know. We are in uncharted waters. All your theories, linear equations, etc. are not worth squat. The Fed allowed the creation of a massive financial bubble, and we are all screwed. WE (the people through our representatives) need to fix it now. We are responsible, ultimately, in any case. They screw up (using Congress' constitutional authority), we pay. Hey, good job congress, you bunch of morons! Now, get off your duffs, and DO YOUR JOB.

  • Oil Prices Popped the Bubble, Not Subprime - Housing Tracker
    We are experiencing a gigantic financial bubble. The subprime mess plus the oil prices certainly helped thrigger the collapse of the bubble, but the ultimate cause of the bubble is congress:

    1. The delegated their constitutionakl responsibilities to the Fed;
    2. Especially under Greenspan, the Fed permitted, nay encouraged, the creation, growth and maitenance of a giant speculative bubble;
    3. Now the bubble is popping, and the Fed wants to rush in to "fix it".

    NO, WE NEED TO

  • Small Banks Next in Line for Credit Crunch - Housing Tracker
    We have to solve this problem. We need to renationalize the Fed completely, open their books, create more strings for Fed help in the case of out-of-jurisdiction loans (i.e., investment banks), Once we see the extent of the problem, we will likely have to bankrupt the current system, or parts of it, and start over.

  • The Impending Mortgage Crisis: Part Three
    Yes, the baby boomer generation and thus much of the population of the US is due to start a rapid decline.

    Why do you think both Republicans and Democrats turn a blind eye to illegal immigration? We need the population. The problem is getting everyone up to full levels of employment and productivity quickly. This actually happens pretty quickly- usually the second generation is there. With Mexico turning into a significant manufacturing country over the last 30 years, many first generation immigrants have a lot of skills.

  • U.S. Economy Is Expanding, Not Receding

  • Better To Be Lucky Than Smart: The Bear Market is Over
    But what does that mean for teh financial system and the eocnomy? Not much. Money is looking for a home, but the financial collapse is still occuring. The $516+trillion derivatives bubble is still being deleveraged. When people rush out to buy MBS paper at$0.90-$1 on the dollar, then maybe things are looking better. I don't think this is going to happen. Our only option now is to
