If people want to help the economy they can start by paying off their debt and stop believing the government will fix it.

This is going to last for at least another 7 years, it depends on how foolish Obama really is and what congress lets him get away with.

Our economy is fucked up because irresponsible idiots put them selves in debt up to their eyeballs, when they pay off that debt the economy WILL get better.

If you look at this particular economic situation specifically, then we are probably around the 40-50% range. However if you look at this from the bigger picture as an indication of and recoil to an unsustainable lifestyle and growth policy, it really is just the beginning.

man fuck, i get diffrent answers on this, one being that the stock market is up, but then i look at the money that is being printed by the feds. i knew the fall was coming, but i thought it would hover around the 10,000 mark, it was an artifical market at 14,000, but i would have never imagined it dropped to around 7,000.

usualy im thinking long term, but during these times its short term with long term in the back of my head. thanks for the input.

gotta prepare for hte worse.

At best were lookin at Weimar Republic Hyperinflation (germany in the 20s).....

"Germany went through its worst inflation in 1923. In 1922, the highest denomination was 50,000 Mark. By 1923, the highest denomination was 100,000,000,000,000 Mark. In December 1923 the exchange rate was 4,200,000,000,000 Marks to 1 US dollar.[14] In 1923, the rate of inflation hit 3.25 × 106 percent per month (prices double every two days). Beginning on November 20, 1923, 1,000,000,000,000 old Marks were exchanged for 1 Rentenmark so that 4.2 Rentenmarks were worth 1 US dollar, exactly the same rate the Mark had in 1914."



at worst we're talkin Zimbabwe Hyperinflation (2000's)...

"Figures from November 2008 estimated Zimbabwe's annual inflation rate at 89.7 sextillion (1021) percent (i.e. prices double every 24.7 hours)"

Thos are just 2 examples of what happens when you have mass inflation of the monetary supply. make sure you got lots of ammo to protect what you got.
