Well, first of all... -----I want to amend my prior post in a small way because if I recall correctly Carter did not specifically ask Miller to leave. He asked his entire cabinet to leave. Now that was not brilliant. ------------ Anyway, one edge the US has had for years is that the dollar is the safest currency. I cannot find it now, but I had a link to National Debt information. Lower rates combined with increased spending, virtually zero savings by it's citizens and maintaining armies in conflict is a guns and butter issue that did not work in VietNam. History could repeat itself. ------- For the record, don't jump all over me because it seems like I'm saying no one saved money in the 1960's. It's not the point.
