I'm addicted to shorting. I'm short euros, gold, stocks and I've been short wheat and silver. There is just something satisfying about taking money from a longs' hopes and dreams that are now shattered. They deposit money into my account and it stays. They can't get it back no matter how much screaming and yelling they do. They can call the cops but there is no crime. It's almost as fun as robbing a stage coach but completely legal. Just when it appears they might get some of their money back, I cover the short and shut the trap door.

Mission Accomplished.

China has linked their yuan to what? You do have peculiar and in fact hideous and barbaric thoughts of a medievil nature: <i look at the coconut, and think, no broken on the wheel is too good for the twin prime evils of our age> Let's hope the USA nuclear arsenal is useful to keep at bay those who you say all think the same as you.

Water boarding and the other USA techniques seem bad enough, but the rack? Bring back the rack?

My experience of life is that those who choose to do borrowing are the people primarily responsible for the consequences of said borrowing, not the lenders. The people who design and produce the currency borrowed only get to decide the dilution of the currency. They can't force people to borrow to buy speculative assets and spend beyond their means.
