70+ years of ever increasingly piled up socialism and government involvement in the free market place (promoted by both the GOP and DEMs to various degrees) finally blowing up into on big pile of dogshit sending us into the next depression

and its not just in the US its throughout the western world....the western socialistic entitlement heavy central banking fiat based keneysian economic structure is in deep water.....and they just trying to save it for the near term.....

pretty much sums up "whats happening"

I would go to an anonymous message board and follow the investment advice of a person who named himself "Dilrod."

Tiz, to have a free market economy without Govt intervention, the American worker would have to compete with the Guatemalans, Nicaraguans, sri lankans and all the others.

Meanwhile we have companies like Nike paying $3 for shoes made in Vietnam and selling them here for $90.

In the current economic climate John Maynard Keynes is an idiot.

we can compete just fine

it all starts with education and using our braincells

creating more inventors and higher wage workers doing things that most people in the world can't do

that said government has ruined our education system as well and is another long term problem we have

we used to be near the top of the list we down to 20 something now

and as for selling nike shoes for 90 here

that's the stupid consumers own damn fault

don't pay the 90 dollars its pretty simple go to payless for your shoes if you can't afford them and don't go into debt buying overpriced shoes that's for damn sure

and that's also part of the deal that goes along with welfare and entitlements and unions and all that

it gives american workers a reason to not go out and get a better education and do something greater with their lives which creates more wealth for our country as a whole

instead it gives them a reason to get paid more for doing less or the same and ends up creating these problems we have as far as the rest of the world kicking our ass like as far as the auto industry is concerned

its all unsustainable and this problem has been building for a long time

and all relates to government getting involved in the marketplace

protectionism won't work and will only make things worse

you reap what you sow

and as far as john maynard keynes his economic system is what allows for the socialists and statists to run up deficits and throw all this government intervention into the marketplace

under a sound stable monetary policy in which government can't spend as much as it pleases pretty much

all these problems that were allowed to build up for 70+ years would have never been able to have been carried out

bottom line what has been done has been done

there is nothing that can "fix" it other than some pain and the american people waking up to the root cause of our problems

government

and the longer people wait to wake up and realize that government and not the free market place is the problem....the longer the little guy will feel pain

also the biggest crock of shit being thrown around by the DEMs these days is blaming deregulation of the banking industry

the problem is our economic system is no where near a free market sound monetary policy system anymore

the reason deregulation sucks under our farse system is because the federal reserve can manipulate credit, FNM and government are involved in promoting home ownership and egged on the lenders to give people loans to people that couldn't afford it, and also the FDIC and FED being a backstop to the banks and lenders lets them know if they do take on too much risk and get in trouble they will be bailed out by nanny state government

we the people need to regulate the fed and government as they are not on your side

they are on the corporations and big businesses side

a classic example i like are minimum wage hikes that is supposed to help the little guy

it may in the short term but long term....

who does this help? walmart

who does this hurt? small mom and pop businesses and eventually they go bankrupt and jobs are lost

Ever been to downtown Detroit??? It is going to be 10 times as bad.




how bad is it going to get, or is the economy really as bad as the media makes it out to be?
