sure..it's well known issue and another reason that keeps me away from munis..cause everything is f*d up now..this 'model' ..it's unsustainable..at least from my point of view..it make no sense,when private sector is making less(in some cases twice less) than their 'servants',teaching our kids at schools



if they were "teaching our kids at school" america might be able to compete internationally. unfortunately american parents complain about schools in general but think their local schools are ok.

of course it could be gigo or the more fundamental issue that america as well as europe is collapsing under a mountain of debt.

Quote from denner:

I guess you weren't around when Volker jacked up rates in the early 80's?

There is a world of difference between "competitive rates" and "going Japanese" and keeping rates pegged at ZERO for 6 f'ing years.

Just because you were born after 1980 is no excuse for being a total ignoramus.



Was born in '62 dipstick! Yes I remember rates went sky high for a few months. Even bought real estate at 13.75% rates.

Obviously The 21% were temporary. Did you manage lock in for 30 years and not tell anyone?

The point is, interest from the bank is for the most part, is behind true inflation and after you get raped with taxes you really fall behind. If you don't understand this then you are the child here.

Keeping money in the bank is not preservation of capital. It's falling behind true inflation. Always has been and always will be. It is designed that way. You should be petrified to keep money idle in the banks.

Another thing! Inflation has always been here and always will. Many ET posters continuously freak out at inflation like its friggin new. Guess what? Its not! Idle money falls behind real inflation. It's is the deninishing of capital.

That's a good thing... otherwise things don't work so well if cash now is worth more than investing for cash later.
