Bart - are you saying, the FED possibly created over 1T dollars out of thin air to bail out the system? No - line 34 in the current H8 shows how "Large Domestically Chartered Banks" are now characterizing $1.2 trillion of their real estate loans as "securitized". What I am saying is that in my opinion the change of character allows the Fed to step it and monetize it if needed to "save the system".

Criminals, when will this all end, what is the end of this insanity. FIAT, on top of FIAT, on top of FIAT, on top of more FIAT - a system detached from all reality. What if it never ends - what if they just keep taxing and taxing the productive folks, keep inflating, and 100 years from now the fed still hasn't blown up? They just keep taking from the rich saves to give to the poor bums. How will history reflect on those that buried gold in their backyard? I asked grace how high hillary would have to tax her income and dividends and how much inflation would she have to suffer before she would do what the founding fathers did and pick up a gun and shoot an authority figure - she still hasn't answered me. So I will ask you - how far will they have to go before you are LITERALLY going to pick up a gun and shoot someone - they will go to that point - and in your case and most everyone else here I think that point is a LONG WAY away.

Yes, priniting press which causes the flow of capital into the economy, driving prices higher to combat inflation. Stocks historically rise in anticipation of inflation. Actions speak louder then words. Does not matter what the Fed "jawbones", press is on full bore. Inflation since the begining makes these two charts possible (below). As Shiller has proved in hi sbook "Irrational Exuberance" it is inflation that has increased in value, not the price of the home. Amazing, really. Next 100 yeears will not be any different. Just a $5 bill will be = to today's $1 bill. andexcharts.com bubblepic.com US has a lot of debt to work off, hence the revaluation is in the works for US investable assets.
