Well, you may be right, but there is no way of knowing how long the government’s might and our Fed can keep the chararde going. Who would have thought the tech bust would be averted by another liquidity bubble? Who knows how long this bubble will take to pop, and what will be waiting at the other side? Perhaps a depression, perhaps a big recession, maybe we Americans will once again produce more than we consume and turn this country around? Any of these are equally likely to me. I am not prepared for a depression. What do you have to do to get ready for one? Don’t you have to grow your own food? I hate gardening.
