TJ, There is a name for the game; it's Calvinball. <It is very difficult to nurture a middle class when you have the life-long political class acting by rule-by-making-up-laws to help their dynastic financial looting class Sponsors to pillage and plunder. > Google no doubt can tell you all about Calvinball.

Revolution is natural. For US this is going to be a close race between when: -middle/financially challenged class revolts -China stops buying and starts selling US treasuries (they probably slowed down buying significantly) -Japan/UK stops buying and starts selling US treasuries -Europe successfully spreads financial STD to the world The first to win the race drives fate for US $ (no ambiguity about direction, just the event and timeline), and then US spreads financial STD to rest of the world. I am at loss to put probabilities on events above and pick a winner :-) At that point what FED or anyone does is immaterial.
