The medieval alchemists never even go close to that miracle!
I am turning paper into gold, it's awesome!

We should be thanking the collective boneheads who make this magic possible.

I second the motion.

[Trvlr45]

Yes, I agree. It was a very profound thought.

And they even break their own laws to make it easier for us to do!


What's amazing to me is:

A few actually do it....

A few more think about doing it....

More talk about doing it, but aren't really convinced....

Some even complain about doing it....

but a lot think we're out of our freakin' minds and our wonderful government is going to make everything ok....

I saw Cup-of -ruins post and I agree that was classic.


Bob,
The view from my pile, yours may be different.

you can't eat gold. you can't eat bullets either. saying that gold has no real worth is like saying someday men will no longer desire sex with beautiful women. although this is possible, it is not likely.

Ha ha ha!

My quote of the week comes from the Chinese. One person wrote the following statement to Geithner after he kept promising a strong dollar: "It would be helpful if Geithner showed us some arithmetic.

Geithner never responded....

Katwoman just Nailed the the dollar, it's future, and the USA's national financial picture to perfection with simply this:

They will try to control the run out of the dollar but it will most likely happen faster than they want.

The FED will have to start monetizing debt and overt inflation will follow on short order.

This is it. Unless congress announces a plan to pay down trillions of dollars in debt or to cut trillions in government spending by significantly cutting entitlements the dollar is done. In fact, even i congress did these things the USD is done.

Bravo!
