and the conditions which created the GFC are being wound back

Hardly... different bubbles are being created by the government like the cheap dollar bubble.

[paraclete]

Yes the fall out from that one could be a market crash again. I say give the bonds a decent return and let the people buy them, in fact, make them a required investment for pensions funds and 401k and stop this nonsense of flooding the economy with money. I remember my basic economics this is not a good policy

[talaniman]

That's the problem Clete the economy hasn't been flooded with money, or living wage middle class jobs either. The bond market is doing great. Wall Street is happy and so are rich folks.

the economy hasn't been flooded with money

correct ,it's been flooded with monopoly money courtesy of the FED and the Treasury Dept's printing presses. Your stimulus has failed and all you have is idiots like Krugman who say we should double down on that failure.

Hey, it wasn't my stimulus and I would have let the banks fail along with the auto industry and AIG. A sharp correction is sometimes the answer. I think this zero interest is a farce distorting markets and buying bonds is just a blind. Look how it has distorted the stock market

Yes that was a Tal's comment I was replying to. Completely agree with statement above. That would be the capitalist solution to dealing with the crisis. I also think the US should adopt a strong dollar policy.

Remember Palin's "first gaffe"?



And then the emperor says this yesterday...



Even Obama is now acknowledging Palin was right.

Palin wrote on Facebook... Hey media, now do you get it?

[paraclete]

Palin was right time to put a cross on the wall

[smoothy]

palin was right time to put a cross on the wall

Palin was right about far more things than Obama has been.

[excon]

Hello again,

Palin is a douche. Cruz is a Fascist. Rand Paul is NOT a libertarian. And, I NEVER thought I would miss George W. Bush, but I do...

Leave it to the right wing to make a backwoods loudmouth who couldn't finish out her own term of office some kind of hero. No wonder you guys are screwed.

Um, that would be your emperor now embracing what Palin said five years ago as policy.

Obama is a socialist douche... Ried is a prune with dementia... and Pelosi is modling herself after the joker.

Considering the emperor only served in the Senate long enough to find the bathrooms ,that's a pretty funny comment.

And found better bathrooms in the White House.

[speechlesstx]

And found better bathrooms in the White House.

He had to traverse 57 states to find them.

[tomder55]

Yes he did... he has a butler too .

While Palin became the cute back woodsy, maverick, governor on the rise only to find out she couldn't keep her commitment to her state after failing to win over her country. Better suited to the OUTHOUSE than the WHITE HOUSE, or the governors mansion. Perfect for Fox News, and the loony right wing fringe.

[speechlesstx]

I bet she knows there aren't 57 states and that Charleston, SC is on the east coast, not the gulf.

[talaniman]

When she comes off her back porch looking at Russia and finds Arizona again, let me know so we can ask her.
