Hi Bill: some of these questions remind me of perverse version of the fable about who will help me gather the flour,bake the bread..etc and only when the chicken says who will help me eat it do people pipe in..now the perversity is that some are implying that the chicken has another agenda.. Anyways I will try to find some links for you..I do have one huge link that has all the online newspapers. I don't understand the implications of the trade deficit and the dollar..at some point how will that undermine the dollar if every other economy is tanking big time.. is the administration terrified of that besides the dismal performance in Germany etc and the rise in oil and is further campaigning against gold.. biz.yahoo.com I thought this was an interesting read...how important it is to keep the illusion of no inflation..since the US stock market appears to be the "savior" currently of the whole world..ie wagging the tail .. that has been a lot of people's here thinking for a long while now.. What I have a hard time believing is why don't these countries who have been so damaged by the central bankers policies of destroying the value of precious metals etc temporarily don't speak up..why doesn't congress speak up.. once again everybody speaks about how wonderful the economy is..so many people are doing their own surveys and are finding out that their friends are working harder and harder with longer hours and are not doing any better Re inflation..I have been hearing nightmares about people's prescription drugs..One of my friends just told me yesterday he pays over 200 a month for his child besides having expenses for his wife and himself. His HMO doesn't pay it. My mind was boggled. Another friend told me that her perscription went up 300 percent. I am curious to see inflation numbers in real estate. I know about cable tv,movies(9.75 now)etc. Again the only thing that seems to be held down is salaries..I heard that 50 percent of Americans are still scared about losing their jobs..don't know if that was propaganda..
