Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I heard RUSH say Romney asked them not to do this.There's a better way.

Throwing more money at the problem never works, especially since we've already thrown 5 trillion away like trash.

Maybe, just maybe, Oboma is crashing the U.S. economy on purpose - finishing the job his muslim brothers failed to do on 9/11. There's no excuse for him to do so many stupid things without knowing exactly what he's doing.

Shouldn't the headline be something like, “Bernanke insures big donors for Obama keep getting raises and bonuses, in order to keep his job”?

This is not going to end well. Not well at all.

It doesn't work. In some sort of left handed way what is happening is that the Fed is nationalizing the private bank accounts, pensions, and wealth of the citizens.

By printing funny money and causing inflation they are taking the value out of the pockets of the citizenry in an attempt to preserve the status quo.

The economy, which is really the people, are not going to invest in the vision of this brain dead administration. They will hold whatever little wealth they have until they get a government they can trust.

When they monetize the federal debt like this, they are essentially stealing all the money from people who save. So you might as well spend all the cash you have now because soon the purchasing power of those dollars will be a fraction of what they are now. I suggest using your cash to buy non perishables like arms and ammunition, buckets of rice, wheat and beans, gold and silver coins etc.

Hyperinflation is Virtually Assured – John Williams - 9/12/12

The Federal Reserve is talking about “unlimited QE,” or money printing, to boost employment. Economist John Williams says, “That’s absolutely nonsense. The Fed is just propping up the banks.” Williams says, “You’re likely going to see a dollar sell-off . . . That should evolve into hyperinflation.”

Williams, “Doesn’t see the current system holding together without hyperinflation beyond 2014.” He contends the real annual deficit is “$5 trillion per year” and says, “That’s beyond containment.” Williams predicts, “Hyperinflation is virtually assured because the Fed doesn’t have any options left.” Williams says people should get prepared because we are facing a “man-made disaster.”

If Oboma manages to get another 4 years, we're going to see a hording of everything. People are going to be digging fox holes everywhere. We have preppers from his first (and hopefully last) 4 years already, but we haven't seen anything yet. 4 more years, and the U.S. is a goner. Oboma will have pulled it off without a niche.
