Well, if they continue ZIRP and Keynesian deficit spending, then we might as well rename this country the Japan, because that's what our economy and stock markets will look like. The NIKEI lost 75% of its value of the two decades after their real estate/finance bubble burst. Do we want the same?

I'd rather go with austerity and letting the free markets wring out the excesses fast. Comparatively, there will be alot of pain, because its fast and more noticeable in a short period, but ultimately that will set us back on the path of sustainable, organic growth, as opposed to this unsustainable pulling forward of demand to smooth out growth, while leaving our children in hock and with an under performing economy.
