"all of the pension systems to achieve the 7.5% to 8% long term returns that they have to pay for their structural costs over the long term..." Because the suckers err victims err participants in the pension system have been conditioned to believe they are entitled to those returns. New world order, can you adjust to a zero rate environment? "On July 18, 2012, the German government sold US$5.13 billion worth of two-year bonds at an average yield of -0.06%. Please note the negative symbol in front of that yield number. What this means is that the German government was able to borrow money for less than nothing. When those specific bonds expire in two years’ time, the German government will pay back the original $5.13 billion minus 0.06%. Expressed another way, investors knowingly and willingly bid the German government $5.13 billion in exchange for bonds that will pay no interest and are guaranteed to lose them money on expiration.1 Welcome to the new status quo." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OafDZdsx0o
