B4 The Bell Moonday August 23

Hyper - what form are you holding money in for the hyperinflation followed by deflation ? silver ? physical loonies ? plus food supplies, I expect. wondering the best survival strategy in each phase.

Prepare to survive a year with zero income...Then at least you have time to think...

 

Anything can happen...

 

Also you might consider an ability to be mobile...I can't see small towns with a good natural resource based economy flying to pieces it is the big cities with huge debt inflated make work projects which will suffer from rapid contractions of divisions of labour.

it was just a matter of time the way things were going, but Aljazeera home page now has a picture of the damage to the Imam Ali shrine:

That's OK, beccause things are going really well over there as I can deduce from the near blackout of information on the Najaf fighting in the traitorous US press.

 

As sports illustrated reported, the Iraqi soccer team is really glad that Uday Hussein is gone.

 

Unfortuantely, they also said this:

... midfielder Salih Sadir then said, "Iraq as a team does not want Mr. Bush to use us for the presidential campaign. He can find another way to advertise himself." Another midfielder, Ahmed Manajid, said, "How will he meet his god having slaughtered so many men and women? He has committed so many crimes." (As it happens, American troops killed Manajid's cousin recently.) He continued, "If a stranger invades America and the people resist, does that mean they are terrorists? Everyone [in Fallujah] has been labeled a terrorist. These are all lies. Fallujah people are some of the best people in Iraq." Meanwhile Iraqi soccer coach Adnan Hamad said, "My problems are not with the American people. They are with what America has done in Iraq: destroy everything. The American army has killed so many people in Iraq. What is freedom when I go to the [national] stadium and there are shootings on the road?"

 

I checked all over the Bush campaign website and I could not find these quotes there, so perhaps they aren't true.....

How much sharper than a viper's tooth is an ungrateful child

 

Beardrech :ph34r: :ph34r: :cry: Ah for the good old days when udi would greet s losing olympic team with a broadaxe and have the respective limb stuffed and mounted on the wall over the fireplace next to the arms legs and eyeball filled pickle jars--

 

Dem bones dem bones dem dry bones...... and dats dee word oh dee lawd

I wonder how Catholics would feel if the Vatican were attacked in a similar manner?

Or what of the Holy Places in Israel?

 

When the Al-Sadr forces are continually augmented by furious Shiites, angry over

the desecration of their temples, how do we win in this situation?

No "hearts and minds" are won,

and yet these were the very people that welcomed us when we invaded.

 

The stated objectives of our gov't vs the hidden ones will be our downfall.

 

Put yourself in the shoes of an Iraqi person. How would YOU feel?

Pretty hard to do if you are a right-wing Christian hell bent on values.

Be against abortion but ignore blowing up mothers and children in Iraq.

 

I consider myself to be a Christian in the broadest sense of that word.

I do not understand.

Dear Sherlock

Look at the battle in Southern Italy about MOnte Casino--the Nazis were using it as an observation post and slaughtering American Boys-until as i said on a preevious post-the American generals recognizing that our boys being sent heavenward at an accelerating rate became slightly holier than the enemy and so the Monastary was leveled to the ground

 

Coventry Cathedral was leveled by Nazi Luftwaffe pilots in a similar manner and was rewarded for their act of kindness later on when the toy-city of Dresden was leveled to the ground and later accompanied to the tune of Hamburg's firestorm bombing which created hurricanes and tornadoes out of pure fire

 

Thus is war---and the sad thing is that the guilt generated by these images is ceating a suicidal moralistic desire for some of us americans to get the same treatment;

 

beardrech :ph34r: :ph34r: War is a crime and that's why the criminals must be punished

Ed Koch comes out for Bush :shocked

 

kerry no stomach for fighting terrorist :lol:? no stool :P

koch has been for bush for some time. he's not your father's koch. for him life now comes down to supporting Israel no matter what they do, no other issues matter.

Sad but true.

The impossible dream come true:154 United Nations have joined together and will begin economic sanctions against the Unholy of Holys---Israel

 

beardrech :ph34r: :ph34r: :cry: --Dear God why hast thou forsaken us and permitted Jerusalem to rise again-will no one rid us of this floating kidney in the body politic enabling all of us lambs to lie down together on the sweet green grass and begin bleating in harmony once again??

Yobob,

 

Thats the word I was searching for,the "over retailing" of the economy,I dont think anyone ,anywhere has really touched on it. It just seems so obvious to me,maybe because I run a business in such a competitive industry,I just dont understand why its not on more peoples radar.

 

Anyway,if it is as important as we think it is,the ticking time bomb is very close to exploding.

 

It has been the perfect set-up for most people,it actually gave most in business enough time to really expand and increase their overheads for the maximum amount of pain.

Over-retailing, eh?

 

Check this out. I work in the area below.....

One of our former stoolies (jrmfl) is projecting a short-lived hyperinflation during the second half of 2005, as the pool operators' frantic flailing sends this process parabolic ... and then burns itself out, as every hyperinflation does.

Even though I'm in the deflation camp, I do get that this all ends ugly when the cb's stop buying treasuries and hyperinflation ensues briefly. Then everything crashes to earth in a deflationary death spiral. Right?

 

But what I don't get is, what will make them stop buying treasuries? What's their line in the sand, pain threshold? When does buying more treasuries inflict more pain on Japan than if they wouldn't? Has anyone done the math and figured this out? It's possible we are in a blowoff that lasts for years no?

We keep forgetting thtat we live in a relativistic world and that what appears t be homogeneously inflationary disguises a coincident deflation within th esame universe

 

For example Starbucks coffee goes to six bucks--J6p proletarian transvestite-loks at the price and shudders with caffeine withdrawel DEPRESSED at the thought he can no longer afford the latte--ergo depression amidst inflation--think of it as resembling a marble cake

Hyper - thanks. If we get hyperinflation, the likely medium of exchange would be .....

Federal Reserve notes in the US will be the medium of exchange...

 

1000 Silver maple leafs might come in handy.

 

365 cans of stew could also...

 

100's of Millions of people don't have any of the above items...

 

You only need to buy time to think really...

I fear goverment that fears an armed citizen!

 

wakeup call :o

Then you would have loved the old Iraq under Saddam...Plenty of gun shops and even Saddam encouraged all boys turning 16 own Guns...

did that include the young kurd boys?

 

dont spin me :o save it for the u.n. gang :angry:

 

some animals are more equal than others/ not buying in

Too bad so sad...

 

The Kurds? So what you are saying is that if 100,000 people in the US backed by the Russians were to start marching to Washinton claiming they were going to take out Bush...Bush should not try to stop them?

 

But when the Iranians did the same thing to Saddam you expected him to just sit there?

 

You want the might is right cake and eat it too...

 

No one is going to take your gun fool...What are you going to do hand it over when they ban them? The Iraqi's are not...

 

Now the Iraqi's seem to be getting stacked like cord wood but at least they ain't dropping to their knees sucking American dick...except the ones with leashes around their necks...right?

 

Next you are going to blame the UN for your depravity.

:o

 

Note to Self: Don't provoke Hip-Cat... and definitely think long and hard before typing if you do.

 

:lol: :lol: :lol:
