I always hold out hope that our elites start making better decisions.

I don't think it's accidental. What better way of removing debt than inflating it all away at the cost of joe public. Also the ensuing chaos will make people demand solutions of their governments which will be provided - but not without certain conditions. This is the great reset.

By the way while this absolute chaos is going on in the world the BBC's top 4 items read as follows:
'The barriers to entry have gone - go for it now' (urging people to start small businesses that are about to be decimated) 'The 100-year-old who still works three days a week' 'World’s biggest' freshwater fish found in Cambodia'

Although I’m not even sure exactly how that works still. It did drop the same about 4 years ago but that could be how it’s invested I guess. Then came back within 6 months.

Anyone with stocks invested for a sustained period time at any point over the last several decades has done extremely well out of it. Besides for someone who despises unchecked corporations and globalism as much as you claim, why are you personally endorsing, propping up that system and seeking to benefit from said behaviours. Maybe invest in gold instead. That would at least match your professed principles. On the plus side, as I say bear markets are almost always more short lived then bull, so as long as you can leave it in there for a few more years your dirty globalist money will soon bounce back

If you do, maybe jump ship as it could get lower yet!

Maybe you could explain the basic economics of how we get of this situation? More specify how would they in increase interest rates significantly further without blowing up the dept market and crashing the economy? Alternatively, how would they print more money without further increasing inflation?

I thought it may have warranted it's own thread! I will never forgive Gary Lineker for ruining the legacy of Gary Lineker.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

You appear to be suggesting that somehow that won't happen this time, when it's self evident that it both has been and will be. I'm not saying that there won't be short or medium term misery, but as with anything that will be an opportunity for some.
