You should leverage all you assetts to get maximum full retard. Find a bank to loan you money against the equity in your home, a line of credit if you will, then take all the money and invest it in the bank that loaned you the money, soon the shares will be worth so much you can pay back the loan, rinse repeat until you are on a first name basis with Beranke,Gates and Soros.

Definetly go full retard plus!! Now is not the time for contemplation when the garden is ready for raping, er I mean reaping.

Oh and buy a really fucking big SUV so people notice you and take you seriously and stuff.

The average real GDP for the decade is shown as 1.7%.  But that is based on fake inflation data.  Use accurate inflation data and that number becomes negative.

If you use Shodowstats inflation data, that number is -2.3% since Shadowstats inflation is about 4% higher than official inflation.

an interesting question to ask actually is whether the dollar debasement post 9/11 made the obvious inflation and then collapse inevitable or not. i'll never forget that fuel price spike after Katrina actually. i remember thinking "the terrorists have won." ironically the economy was still in pretty good shape back then. now? I'm gonna need more than a Doctor after this calamity finally winds down. so "is growth picking up" or are "prices collapsing"? it's not like we're anywhere NEAR the Reagan numbers for job growth. that's in ABSOLUTE TERMS i might add. the State that we're supporting now compared to then sure seems a lot bigger to me. I mean "Reagan's glorious invasion of Grenada" is about all i remember insofar as that was concerned. Great article btw. And great comments as well. I used to complain about "needing to pick up our game" in these here parts...but not anymore. This place GETS IT now.

Give this man a medal for a truly unique post ! ! !

Real soon.

Really.

A watched pot never boils. There will be no stock market crash per se. We're all on the long road to societal collapse now. This keeps going until enough people start starving or enough people have nowhere to sleep. We just have to face facts. The US dollar has been thrown under a bus to keep the facade alive. The erosion of the standard of living will increase significantly. Plot this over time on a the equivalent of a stock market chart and that's where you will find your collapse.

When collapse does happen, noone will give a shit about the DOW, Nikkei, FTSE, Hang Seng. These are abstracts of life that have overtaken life itself. Every waking hour we're all glued to the DOW, the S&P the USD/EUR pair, the list goes on. It's no wonder society is in it's terminal phase now.  My guess is though that Fukushima is going to speed the decline by orders of magnitude.

We can thank all the politicians who have lowered the efficiency of labor and capital in the USA by placing barriers to labor and capital, tariff and non tariff barriers alike.

These regulations have sometimes been well meaning but often designed specifically as a barrier to competition by special interests who helped write the rules.

Developed economies are too rigid to grow efficiently. We have finally succumbed to Eurosclerosis.

Since GDP is becoming increasingly linked to the feds balance sheet, the more that the feds balance sheet expands the closer to Zero-0 the GDP will get, because the markets have been completely disconnected/bifurcated from the real economy.

It is absolutely incredible to me, and I've said it before and for a long time now, that the numbers and the data that the goverment and Fed produces is to create a false sense OF DESPAIR!  If things are good but you constantly present them as bad then those who bet against you will bet wrong and fund your success. It's the Apple quarterly reporting scheme applied to the economy. 

You can lie and say that you are pumping $85 billion a month into the economy when in fact you are only putting as much as is needed where it is needed to create the illusion of excess liquidity that in fact is being produced by the economy. 

The unempolyment rate goes up even though participation and employment skyrocket, when the month before, participation was lower and employment was weak and the unemployment rate when down.

Make it up as you go along. The doomsayers will suffer for 3 years looking at data, which if true, would have destroyed the economy long ago. For years they said that a minimum of 200,000 jobs was required to account for population growth and yet the unemployment rate goes down, not up, and they don't mention this long held truth anymore. Goldman and Chase are in on the joke.  

Remember that it was the Germans who took the largest hit from the RMBS debacle becuase they cannot help themselves and if Fitch says it's tripple A, then Germans cannot see past that, even if it's obvious to anyone who looks beyond the data and to common sense: tens of thousands of homeowners with no income and no job qualified for exorbidant mortgages with no maney down, and it's AAA. 

I know what I wrote is fiction, but I swear that things are so meesed up, so NINJA, that it's a bizzaro world of insanity. 

This whole convoluted scenerio began as a result of the price of gas in my town. On one side it is often .10 cents or more than on another, a distance of 6 miles, sometimes it is the same or higher on the other. If you knew the demographics of my town, you'd know that  charging what the market will bear makes no sense. That supply and demand makes no sense. Especially because there is essentially only one provider of gasoline. The only thing that explains the price of gas in my town is as an economic regulator. If the economy on one side begins to overheat, raise the price of gas, temper the flame. If the other side begins to wane, lower the price, boost spirits. Of course all of this is in conjuntion with the national price that seems to follow suite. It's macro/micro economic regulation through gas prices! What fiction!, but why the hell don't we regulate it as such. It seems the mechanism is already in place.

That said, it is also said that a market can remain illogical for far longer than you can remain solvent, but this must also then apply to an economy, with the same escalator up, elevator down eventuality. I am German so i cannot help but belive that figures don't lie, even if liars really are figuring.
