    Going back a bit farther, it's amazing how much the inflation rate has fallen, and stayed down.

    Let's get back to that post you scribbled the other day. You know, the one that said something about idiot republicans who want to do away with the gov't bond market by stopping deficit spending? And then what would social security invest in. Remember that one?

    At the same time the keynesian clowns that dominate your party, the gov't and the fed, are doing everything short of sticking a gun to investors heads to shoo them out of gov't bonds and into corp bonds and stocks, you make derisive comments about republicans wanting to end the deficits because then there would be no gov't bonds to invest in. We'd be stuck with corp bonds and stocks.

    I'll bet you got that from your favorite lgbt network, didn't you? :D

    Hard to believe that as recently as 2008 the rate was well above 5%. Some folks here would be ranting AND raving at that level.

    :D

    Her oxford phd is probably like soetoro's nobel peace prize. Something to make the left feel like they have some worth.

  7. So you watch a "News" program for what, to reinforce what you believe in no matter how wrong? Anyone remember the lack of signups late last year for Obamacare and because of this the program was considered a failure?

    What is money an indicator of? The money sure didn't help Karl Rove's candidates in the last election. Money sure didn't help the Kochs from preventing the raising of the minimum wage.

  9. This is far too complicated of topic to explore on this site. And printing money in leu of treasuries is absurd. Instead of worrying about the budget deficit, your concern should be focused on the trade deficit and its effect on jobs.

    well then you should be lowering corporate taxes... as when you include state and local we are at 39.1 % virtually the highest in the industrialized world.

    And it matter. It is why we are having corporate inversions at a record pace. And we are losing jobs because of it right now.

    Taxes matter.

    I think I would put up a new topic.
