well... if what I interpret is correct, then this is the beginning of a mountain of debt creation world-wide, meaning:

In the 50's the first purchases through credit cards initiated a boom in credit extension, so today, with a world-wide audience and the tools to extent credit at such level...

...the financial engineers (namely, central bankers and allies), will make sure that such credit will be a form of engine of growth of some sort... (fat chance for interest rates to go sky high, if this is correct)

I do not know if there is a precedent of this magnitude to make an educated guess of where this is leading to...

[not that economist could ever get it right anyway -gg]

fasten seat belt, enjoy the ride, and be ready to bail at the first sign of trouble... (not that it wil be easy to get out)
