    Default Inflation here we come

    "Goldilocks was looking for a diamond bracelet from the Fed, a little pre-Christmas present," said Art Cashin, director of floor operations at UBS. "Instead they got cheap rhinestones. She threw a tantrum yesterday and now the Fed shows up with a new box and says, 'Here's one you haven't opened yet honey.' "

    Other than to highlight what stupid sexists they are on Wall Street, which having had worked there, I already knew, what is the significance of this Top? What is the second gift? Are you saying the second gift is inflation?

    Top is high from sniffing dry erase markers.
    Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
    Proving tax cuts work!

    Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
    The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

    Q: Senator Obama, would you take the same pledge? No tax increases on people under $250,000?

    OBAMA: I not only have pledged not to raise their taxes, I've been the first candidate in this race to specifically say I would cut their taxes.

    I'd guess he's saying another rate cut and that it will lead to inflation. I think the credit Crisis can push the economy into a recession and the inflation forecasts are low so we have room for more cuts. Lets just hope that when we start to stabalize they raise them faster than they did when they were down to 1% after 9-11. That's is a major reason were in this mess.

    LMAO.... sure, we can compare investments if you like, but that does not change the fact that you show a complete lack of understanding of economics. As I have stated previously, you have a good knowledge of the energy and tech sectors. But that does not equate to understanding the economy as a whole.

    Your whole childish rant about GDP quarters yeseterday is a good example of your lack of knowledge. Then you storm off and refuse to even recognize that the very thing you claimed did not exist.... did indeed exist.

    You also continue to toss out the strawman that those of us saying a recession is equivalent to our saying that it will begin immediately.

    By the way... what exactly makes you think your idiotic post above is a "burn"???
