I sometimes believe a nasty thought about The Greenman that Greensnooze views Asian economies as expendable American money center banks have almost zero exposure in Asia OPEC also has zero debt to American banks once the US economy overheats, or inflation is seen as a threat (even if a ghost threat), we slow our economy, bring the rest of the world to a screeching halt, thus reducing the cost of all kinds of commodities, from crude oil to semiconductors to rice to TVsets to auto parts to camcorders to CDplayers to clothing gotta keep down the cost of our massive imports the biggest threat of inflation comes NOT from our domestic labor, but from foreign imports foreign economies are not as strong as ours take them down as we approach recession ourselves we dont go into recession because we are so damned strong, but they do because they arent as solid or broad their prices come down, and we import lower prices on to the next cycle, free from inflation the only smart comment I ever heard from dunce Barton Biggs "as foreign economies experience deep recession, our supply costs drop, hitting the sweet spot of our economy" / JW
