Lie on the beach, catch some rays, and let the world go to hell.

And this is while we out here on the thread are doing our jihad duty and trying to solve the problems of the world?.... :)

Many bad things throughout history happened because people tried to impose their limited pseudo-scientific theories on societies in general -- and on economies.

The Fed is chasing its own tail. When they try to save us from the evils of deflation, they end up creating RE and credit bubbles - and weaken the Dollar. Now, they will try to fight inflation - and will most likely increase deflationary pressures.

With all those cheap imports everywhere, and an evolving slowdown - and very little in a way of upward pressure on wages - and with central bankers set to start raising rates - I think this conundrum will not be over without a deflationary episode.
