Hi Koan

Before I begin let me say with abundance ...
you are much smarter than I am ...

that said ....

lets do something -even better- than print money ....

(a) lets tell Mish that we are going to take the
Fed Discount rate down to -0- % and that will resolve
the problem ....

just speculating but in about a nano second (I think)

Mish is gonna fire back a 5 letter answser to our
solution ....

Here is a hint at what I suspect will be his answer:

J_PAN ......

now my point is - taking the rate down to -0- percent
IS printing money (I think) e.g. the housing nuttiness
of the last 5 years .... drove prices to infinity ...

but - even - at some point - that won't help as
exemplified by Japan - but frankly - I don't know
or understand the forces that prevent this from
working .... i.e. reflating ....

In summary, at some point (and NOT understanding WHY)
hello-cop-terring ...... may not help .... either.

fwiw -

regards,
John
