Yes! The problem is that we won't accept the full correction that is actually required. We print money, we buy securities, we find ways to prop to reduce the pain but we end up shifting the weakness to other areas of the economy.

The amounts going around now are getting too big for a government to cover. Instead of too big to fail, they're now too big to bail.

Nonsense. We can print an unlimited amount of dollars.

Last time I checked gold and silver were at all time highs and the dollar was down more than 10% YTD.
