nice editorial comments, but seriously... where was any 9% GDP growth? Q3 was yr-over-yr 3.5% hedonics, chain weight, annualization made it 2% sequentially as long as CPI is held low, the bond bubble expands further well, not quite as long as Asian credit masters allow it, feed it, and keep its anvil dangerously poised over their own testicles the jobs issue is the only one Fed boys can point to I point to both jobs and Asian willingness to supply credit you focus on the domestic factor I focus on both the domestic and the external factor the domestic one cannot be controlled the external one can only be controlled temporarily SOON it will give way (I had to put that in, just to jag ya) productivity is tied to layoffs, as we the enlightened comprehend liars or fools? both, since they are bank politicians unelected, unaccountable, and certainly use language and rule over concepts that not 3% of Americans comprehend or can adequately argue / jim
