So, who is going to bail us out? What is reset button? What happens when it is pressed? I am asking you now. I know the Russians pressed a GKO (equivalent of T-bond) default button for reset, arbitrarily, in craze fashion in 1998, as they always do, and the result was 80% plus devaluation of the currency, and 90% plus stock market meltdown plus 90% + collapse of the banking system. It all recovered quickly, thou, and stocks went to new highs a couple of years later. -g-

My tentative answer is that Ben will not dare, he will print us into oblivion. So, Ben will bail us out, through USD creation. I think some countries in Europe might actually default, including big ones like Spain. What's your answer?

What exactly is silly about a comment that some countries in Europe might press the reset button, while we likely won't? The Germans fear a certain outcome that Ben does not, and the ECB is located in Frankfurt. I am entitled to an opinion on that. This thread has deteriorated from an intelligent discussion that once was here to just trading on fading a nut or two and a bunch of insults. If you have an opinion, say it, and no, I have not been drinking tonight -g-
