mish, I think your choice of an ARM might be the best play (imagine, you might prove that Greenspan's January advice to choose ARM over fixed was sound after all -g-). A couple of bad (really, I mean NOT GOOD) jobs report and that cut might not be out of the question in late Summer or early Fall. Trotsky is fascinating. Thx TH

after starting to read some of the Austrian stuff -- Heinz starts to sound a bit repetitive -- what I don't understand very well is HOW the capital structure has been distorted by easy money -- Corrigan talks a little bit about it sometimes, but often loses me with his big words. I also like reading that Shostak fellow -- but he appears to be selling some proprietary stuff that he has ... I really like this book: Callahan, Gene Title: Economics for Real People: An Introduction to the Austrian School Publisher: Auburn: The Mises Institute, 2002 Comments: but sometimes the examples are bit stretched I am also in the middle of Human Action, but there is so much apologetics or foundational stuff -- I can buy a lot of the perspective without the "hammering." Maybe I'll try Rothbard's tome next ...
