Hi Tom It is sad. I wonder however if the IMF had stayed away if things would not of run their course in the same time span as i think the Imf and we said want miracle well california sure took it times ot get back on it's feet. Takes time to work through all the ends that make up an economy. That is what frightens me which end of ours is going to go first the Dow Wages? IMHO watch the architectural firms when they lay off they aren't getting work to fuel the boards. When they are busy you are in an economy of demand and very high possibility of inflation.

Japan "is the largest holder of U.S. bonds, with 25% of Washington's debt" For those that like to minimize this issue, that's about $2 trillion worth. dailynews.yahoo.com And for those confused by Goldman Sachs and others that like to point out that England is now the largest hoplder of treasuries, remember that Japan's hods the bills and notes. The short term stuff that could explode u.s. debt in a matter of months. This will ultimately be the stake through the heart. You heard it here first.
