you think instead that the debt insanity can be sustained?
why?

I believe you vastly underestimate the truly awesome power of a worldwide Kondratieff Winter

we are in the midst of a debt liquidation phase
the entire United States economy is built on a debt-based foundation
its citizens each maintain a household built on debt abusively
our government operates on debt abusively
our corporations operate on debt abusively

and this will continue without consequence or pain or resolution ???

you have too much faith in the Fed's Printing Press
what will be market response be to excessive usage of this press?
I say, a dollar collapse in tragic inexorable painful slow motion
despite all efforts
remember, 45% of USTrez debt is owned by foreigners
this aint Japan, where they own most of their own debt
foreigners will not stand idly much longer

if the dollar continues down in a spiral, what effects will be felt to the USEconomy?

your faith is unfounded and to me, seems blind
