"Much of the rise in goods prices is coming from world wide demand —— not FED pumping." Wrong! Much of the rise in goods prices is coming from 'speculation' — people are getting out of 'money'— even gold— (but mostly dollars) into something more substantive as fast as possible!

repeat of the RTC days with 70's stagflation..only thing holding it together was the ability to grow MZM at 20-30% when needed without ramifications to long term rates backing up in a major way.. Cassandra's like Mish are always going to be right once in a while but that doesn't matter to them..it is the message that attracts a continued stream of believers to the cult/cause

As I mentioned to you several years ago, I don't expect the FED to try to defend the level of real wages and that almost guarantees a fairly deep and long recession soon. Was it you that mentioned a repeat of 90-92? I think it's going to be much worse than that. Well, the The National Bureau of Economic Research just declared this past recession the longest since World War II. Also see: Message 24656994 It's likely the US will undergo a recession soon as households adjust to their lowered standard of living.
