Deleveraging the U.S. Economy
Article: Deleveraging the U.S. Economy
Excerpt:
With the GDP/Debt ratio at 375%, the road ahead is fraught with danger.
Excerpt:
It took $1.50 of debt to generate $1 of GDP in the 1960s, $1.70 to generate $1 of GDP in the '70s, $2.90 in the '80s, $3.20 in the '90s, and an unbelievable $5.40 of debt to generate $1 of GDP in the latest decade. Over the past two decades, while most investors thought this trend could continue indefinitely, we have been warning them of the catastrophic problems associated with this ballooning debt.

Breeden's Warning: Bailouts for Everyone
We don't need a systemic-risk regulator! What is needed is for market disciple to be permitted to take effect. In other words, actions should have consequences. Companies and banks that make bad decisions, should go broke, not bailed out. Consequences be damned.

Comments on Comments
First, for the record, comments are pain in the neck. If anyone is thinking of starting a blog, we recommend not permitting comments about subjects that are close to come and fraught with dispute. Disputes in real life tend to become flame wars on comment boards. It had been hoped that this wouldn't happen here, but that was naive. Allowing unfettered comments is not really a good idea. So, that leaves moderation. Moderation is tiring. Which comments to publish or not? It becomes a thankless task. So, comments will be disabled on future posts, and comments on past posts will eventually be "aged" off.
The comment sections have not be productive in illuminating new ideas. Rather they have only served to forum to regurgitate disputes already playing out in other public forums. There is no need to enshrine these disputes online for all of the world to see, for all of time. Do we all want someone who is thinking about visiting Bethlehem to be reading about dirty laundry instead of the area's natural beauty?
What about the "good" comments? Again, it takes too much energy to moderate which ones to keep and which ones to dismiss. Our idea of a good comment is probably different that your idea. So, we will eventually just take them all down once people have had a chance to "get it out of their system". What about the "exchange of ideas"? This is America, there are many avenues to offer different ideas. We are confident that one of the many other forums will suffice.
Our apologies to those who are disappointed.

John Conyers on Reading Legislation
Good question Rep Conyers. Now, what do you suppose we're supposed to do once you pass it and we have to live with it?
Rep Niki Tsongas at Townhall in Chelmsford, Mass
Excerpt:
"What I have is a tremendous array of choices. And I made a choice based on what I was willing to pay for and what made sense in terms of coverage for me and my family. This is essentially what we are creating for the American people. We are creating greater choice," Rep. Niki Tsongas (D-MA) said.
