    Agreed joec … it can go too far … I think of the South Korean auto industry in the 1990s, with government sponsorship getting to the point where a small nation of 40 million had five auto manufacturers.

    But yeah as jimmyle notes, the rest of the world isn’t standing still 🙂

    [quote=Arraya]There is a school of though that bubble wealth is just an illusion and it’s really just multiple claims on the same wealth pie. When the bubble collapses claims are extinguished. It’s kind of a trip to understand but it was never really there in the first place. The constant injections of debt and printed cash is just a frantic attempt at trying to maintain an illusion.[/quote]

    OK, finally something that makes sense 🙂

    False dichotomy.

    Is it sustainable *with* government action?

    Is the government action needed to sustain indications of a recovery sustainable itself?

    Not that I’m against a stimulus … but I do think we need to be asking different questions.
