Who didn't predict inflation, Viva?
I dont know.
Gold is looking even better now. Congrats.
Failed, failed, and just about to fail.
The assumption in the OP was rather well tested. Seems like no one seems to think that US treasuries still aren't the safest bet around.
Where else are you going to park your cash, GREECE?
who charges fees to refinance. This is the second time I have seen someone talk about this... I just refi'd and didn't get charged a fee (and have never been charged for that matter)
Thanks for posting the cartoon. It shows how the left oversimplifies and stereotypes.
So your point is that our currency is safer than Greece, and therefore our system is beyond reproach?
Are you always this dumb?
You say that as if you have never seen a political cartoon before.
Now, little Darrin, when grown-ups want to make a point in a funny way, they use what is called "satire". They will draw simple, funny pictures that tell a story.
Can you say "satire"?
[/condescention]
Hey liar, if you are going to quote me, get it right instead of slandering me.
The above quote is a flat out lie.
Nope.
The point I made was that, at the end of the day, we are still regarded as the safe haven.
The main assumption of the OP is that underlying "safe haven" assumption will change, and should have changed by now.
I didn't say anything about our current system being "above reproach"?
Since you sort of asked, I would say it definitely isn't above reproach, as S & P made pretty clear in their statement.
The current rather noisy move to the right in this country, and the increasingly extremist viewpoint of the Republican party has caused a great deal of political upheaval. That has done more damage than any amount of debt we have taken on thus far.
Accounting for all the toxic pollution you produce is a "pollution control", because it forces companies to be aware of, and report, their pollution, and provides penalties if they don't.
I don't think the attribution is at all a lie.
Your words. "feel good" liberal expenses" when talking about companies having to keep track of really toxic waste.
I was referring to the specific accountability requirements liar.
So it should be "some pollution controls are" instead of "pollution contols are".
Fair enough.
(edit)
Fixed.
Did you really post this, Darrin?
The "noise" your referring to is made by a select few right-wing idiots who left-wing sheep like yourself point at in order to propogate the false left-right paradigm. The damage they inflict cant be near as bad as the damage done by repeated QEs by the FED, which you publically support, old people's pensions and savings be-damned.
There has been no "shift" to the right. We see the same people who voted for bush, now railing against socialism and obama.
The only move that matters is that of independents moving towards libertarian views as the only option to reign in the crushing weight of our federal folly.
And if the Dollar is so damn safe, why is the international community continually proposing a move away from it as the world reserve? When this happens, do you think the cash in your pocket will be worth more as TP or as kindling?

You really are a sheep, RG.
I wonder how long it will take Darrin to notice....
If he doesn't figure it out, I will point it out to him in great big, simple words.

Maybe if you keep the covers pulled up, the bad things wont happen, RG.
What are you doing with all your money, Parker?
spending it like there is no tomorrow, of course.
The value is only going to keep falling, fella. I can get more for it today than I can when the prices go up tomorrow.
The "international community" generally proposes this because they, generally Russia and China, would prefer to erode the US power base.
(funny enough, I typed that before clicking and reading the link, heh)
I actually agree with that report.
Ultimately though, the IMF funding is still dominated by the dollar, since we are one of the bigger donors, so it wouldn't be *that* much of a solution.
Sorry, once again, I don't get to fit into your false paradigm of what "the left" is.
