Well it's pretty clear that they want to try and keep the dollar above 80 at the very least and it absolutely seems to get magically rescued every time it looks like it's about to drop below 79. As far as the government continuing to provide SS, Pension, Food Stamps, etc. How our they going to manage to continue this as they are not self sustaining. Without the Fed's continual money printing these things could not be funded. At some point the reality has to be faced IMO. I honestly don't think there is anyone out there that knows just exactly how this is all going to end other than that it will be very painful and ugly for the vast majority of the population. Those crazy preppers will be alright I suppose. I was telling my trading instructor in the last class that that is why it is important to have gold and silver. He just laughed and said, "They won't do you any good if this thing falls apart. What you'll need more than anything is food, water, guns and ammo." In other words we end up in a Mad Max world of barter.
