Could the Weimar Hyperinflation Happen Again in America?

well i think alot of the theory in these publications has seriously rubbed off on you and thats what im picking up on

i read one site only for journalism and thats www.zerohedge.com

eye brow raising bodies who take the same old view and approach to news. One dimensional.

that is to be honest how i see yourself and most other people on this site! its all about thinking outside the box...(which most of my theory is as you know!)

Hi NR

Thanks for that link.

I think I have overdone the "honourable adversary" bit with you and BS, so I'd like to pull my ears down towards my collar a tad. I do like to get my teeth into issues, and as much as I like my point of view to be heard, I am certain both of you would also like to be heard, and taken a little bit more seriously.

NR - I know you can give as good as you get, and it doesn't bother you much. Even so - I've had enough of making ratbaggery comments, and will engage on a better level, if we can continue this discussion.

BS - to you I'd like to say that you do have some valid points, and I haven't really tried to listen to your views as much as you deserved. Sorry Bud - I hope you don't quit the thread because of some trash I poured over you.

Anyway - I would like T2W to improve and to be a place worth having a discussion about the financial future of the world. To that end, I apologise for not engaging you both in the best way.

My views are that the US is in deep, and the Bond Market's antics will reveal that in time, with dire threats to the USD Reserve status.

But I'll re-read your comments, and try to understand your views.

Hope we can get this back on track.

Cheers

Ivan

Eh, it's alright. For my part, I was just cranky from having a bad week in the markets. But as I'm seriously exhausted (and still a bit cranky) right about now, I'll continue tomorrow. RIght now, it's time for a creme de cassis.

There is one hell of a dilemma imho for political parties and politicians to cure this nation's ills. The present Govt won't admit they should have moved on the financial problem a lot lot sooner. Oh no it's always someone else's fault.

In a democracy will the majority vote for the party who proposes sensible measures even if they are a bit harsh. I think probably not, especially if your average politician is filling his own bank account with public money etc.

They will make the appropiate noises and do too little too late. A recipe for future disaster on a problem that should never have happened and would never have happened if they were competent.

it would have happened, financial instability is garuntueed with a fiat currency

Another point worth considering is the attitude of Americans in high places to the financial crisis.
They mostly couldn't give a stuff about the millions suffering the loss of their jobs, homes etc. and are getting huge rewards again, so soon and the crisis is not even over yet.
Get caught stealing $100 of goods from the corner store and the offender is in trouble but waste billions and the only punishment is a few hard words and on with the game by the untouchables !! They are too big to fail and they know it. Fair is a dirty word in the States. They are the authors of their own and our troubles and noone is able to even smack their wrists !
