ild,

What I can not resolve in my own mind is how is the world wide debt is going to be brought back to rational balance. Japan has been struggling with this problem for 12 years and are the US and Europe going to follow in the footsteps of putting band-aids on the problem. These CB's are not dumb and they know what problems lie ahead.

Listerning to some of the experts on Europe they may not have the debt problem we have here in the US. If this is true why should the European CB bail out the US. Europe could muddle through with their GDP's getting to the point where internal supplies meet demand and let Japan and the US figure out how to solve their debt problems.

What deflation? We are running at twice or so the rate of inflation last year, services inflation is around 4% and overall inflation at around 2.6% vs last year sub 2%. The Feds should raise rates, see

investorshub.com for a "non conventional" opinion.
