I’ve been all fired up the last couple days about Comrade Paulson’s housing bailout – Paulie, are you kidding me??? Instead of ranting and raving myself (it could get out of hand), here’s a roll call of the excellent articles I’ve read this week putting the plan in perspective (a very scary perspective if you […]

Nice, but scary, article in today’s Rude Awakening It’s frightening how much free cash the central banks are pumping into the system – M3 rose 12% year over year (yikes)! It’s hard to see this ending well.
