Holy shit. There are other people in the world that understand deflation and its effects. /waveExcept, that all these incentives are going to do nothing but further deflation (a much more risky proposition than inflation). IE, why buy today if it will be cheaper tomorrow. Production goes down, profits go down, because there is less production needed more jobs are lost. It's a downward cycle that will do significant damage if allowed to begin.
Housing, cars, now appliances, some municipalities/residents are now asking for burial money to help offset the cost. People will stop buying other sectors of products because they will begin waiting for a rebate from the gov't to get a discount.Leave a comment:

Money
• Save paper and coin money in a safe place in your house.
• Invest in a small or medium size safe to store your money and other valuables.
• Slowly begin withdrawing from your savings and investment accounts on a regular basis. Store this money in a safe location.
• If you can purchase gold, buy it. Gold retains the same value no matter how low or high the currency markets go.
• Stop paying taxes to save money and force government leaders to listen to the citizenry, the people who put them in office.Leave a comment:

Not necessarely. There's a cascade effect to money circulation. Much more dynamic that money kept at the bank. You know that.
C4C produces new goods. People work, get paid, spend the money, pay taxes. Money spent creates more job for workers who spend more money, and pay more taxes. I am not an economist, but I would be curious to see how much tax is brought back into the government's piggy bank as it collects taxes everytime money is spent in this cascade, and how much welfare/unemployement is being saved by having workers on duty. Big guys at the top of the chain food won't make much money if the small guys at the bottom won't buy...
C4C is an attempt at jump starting a stalled economy. It will try to crank it so that it (hopefully) runs by itself. And I don't think that staring at that dead engine, doing nothing, will do much.

Over 90% of US states are close to bankrupcy. Should they be taken down?

actually the deficit spending during the 30's didn't stimulate anything, and di not cure chronic high unemployment, something we are doomed to repeat i'm afraid.

Alaska is one of America's biggest and best investments. Sell California, NJ, NY, CT, DC and a few others. Then we might be going somewhere.
Everyone in the PNW that has not been to Alaska should be ashamed. Cheap short flights to some of the prettiest country America has to offer.Leave a comment:
