It seems that our epic inflationary credit bubble is still expanding strongly, not bursting as i would have expected by now.

I guess we should not be surprised, this is simple economics at work: low (negative) interest rates in a high inflation environment breed even higher inflation rates.

And the interest rates can stay below inflation rates, because we no longer have a free market economy.

Yet Bank America and JP Morgan/Chase control such a huge portion of the credit card biz these days and their stocks hitting all time highs on a daily basis

With the new bankruptcy legislation, all the loaned out money will be coming back. It is just a matter of time. So yeah, the more people go crazy the better the books look.
