Hello Haim, <<W.W.II started exactly for the same reason run away inflation in Germany exported to other European countries and economic hardship>> ... precisely, and therefore the US must stop exporting dollars;0) <<people do not evolve or change as fast as technology and the same instincts and despots will rule as it was in 1930>> ... I am in fact counting on this to be true. <<what is your real solution to avoid yours or my prediction?>> ... I have none, other than time, muddling through, until collapse. <<As to democracy ....... well it is an utopian concept similar to communism as envisioned by is founders>> ... slippery slope thinking. You must stop this train. <<IMHO Asia populous countries must do much more to revive the standard of living of their own people much faster than the western countries>> ... this is part of the scenery already, and is precisely what is causing distress in other parts of the world. You must see that no one is forcing anyone to buy anything from anywhere. <<Russia was is in that stage but it is very difficult to compare as they are 1/10 of China population.>> ... Russia went the way of Argentina, and so China must not go the route of Russia. China may end up saving the world, or be responsible for giving rise to a better world. <<China must do more than what you wrote much more reflected in fiscal and monetary stimulus or dissaster waits around the corner (few years)>> ... you suggestion is ... what, build ICBM, go on foreign adventures, construct a bridge to the moon. And even if so, China still cannot digested USD as fast as the US can print it at a marginal cost of effectively zero, according to professor BurnAndKaput. China is only making what the US wants to buy, of mutual free will, and nothing more. The source of ruin is not in China. <<..... and if you think smart financial move will save you my bet is that your accumulated gold will be taken away by lawless gangs roaming the globe ..... your nice home will be burned down and all your valuables confiscated for the good of the so called "nation" ..... as lawless power will rule ........>> ... just so that we understand each other completely, let me state this in very few words, 'I find what you described maximally exciting, and intend to take full advantage of the entire sordid situation as it develops' :0) Chugs, Jay
