there is a lot of demand for fixed income. think about all the RMBS and so on--those things soaked up trillions. it is all gone, poof! debt contraction all over the private sector. fixed income buyers need a home. that home is govt bonds. once the market cr*shes again, even regular people like you may wish you had been in govt bonds. you will then rush in after the fact to bid them up further. all institutional investors (pension funds, etc.) are going to have much higher govt bond allocations. not to mention banks.
