[img_assist|nid=10872|title=Prime Rate|desc=|link=node|align=left|width=100|height=51]

look at the inflation chart for 2000 to 2008 – gold bottomed in 2001 and hit $1000 in 2008 and again in 2009 – interesting

I don’t understand what the article is getting at – real interest rates have been negative for several years – that is part of why gold has gone from $300/oz to $900/oz

“real interest rates — interest rates measured in purchasing power — could become negative”

it’s just that the sheeple haven’t yet realized that real interest rates are negative and have been for years

~

the article also assumes that there are no alternatives to spending/loaning depreciating dollars – no mention of the fact that intelligent people with excess cash would be trying to preserve their purchasing power by putting the excess cash into tangibles like silver and gold [but again, this article is aimed at the sheeple]

~

another interesting game the Fed could play currency-wise: declare all $100 bills null and void (sorry, Mr. Franklin) – most $100’s circulate outside the USA so this game would mostly screw foreigners and not Americans – the rationale (spin) would be that the $100 bill has been counterfeited to the point of worthlessness so we are removing it from the currency – presto-magico, massive reduction in the supply of US dollars circulating

pri_dk – I wish I had a good answer for you – at this point I can’t clearly identify the lines between government / banking / judicial system / corporations

the only rule that seems to apply is that if you are part of the elite or connected to them, there are no rules

you are implying that govt regulation is part of the answer – I would agree with you IF there weren’t so many instances of the regulators blatantly ignoring warning signs – numerous people warned the SEC about Madoff (made off with the money, he did!) yet they turned a blind eye – several people are warning the CFTC about ilegal and manipulative short positions in the silver and gold markets yet the regulators fail to address their complaints

another point of discussion would be all of the Goldman Sachs executives who are now in power seats of international banking and government – a subtopic would be about corporate CEOs who move back and forth between govt positions and private positions – as a case study we might look and see who made the electrical power industry deregulation possible and what their connection to Enron was – repeal of Glass-Seagall Act enabled all the banking/investment games of the last decade which provided the banking lobbyists with lots of money for politicians who enacted more laws that benefited the banking industry …

And who is the government representing these days? There are 42,000 lobbyists in Washington, D.C. everyday – are they working on your behalf?

I don’t know all the answers but more govt doesn’t seem to be a good answer to any of the questions that I have – now, its chore time …
