What if: 1) After looking down the abyss –hungry alligators, knife edge stones, rapids, quick sand guarded by Komodo Dragons -if we fall out the water- investors and the financial community as a whole- have discovered that the THE END is too unpalatable and they decided to step back from the edge of the abyss and keep financing the US. Not let capital spread more evenly and keep partying on for, let’s say, five years more?
Capital flow into the US continues, US keep hogging capital real good, China keeps fabricating like mad and let’s leave this for the next generation to suffer the consequences of facing the abyss bottom?
