Jimi Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 C'mon. A $50 billion fund to insure the MMFs is pointless. There are trillions of losses buried in those things. Don't get suckered. 690955[/snapback] It seems it's going to be politically difficult - if not impossible - to abandon the principle based on escalating size of a problem that will likely drip out over time. Doc, you & I have long shared camp as deflationists. But the decisions of the past two weeks and those the past 72 hours are forcing a reconsideration on my part for the very first time.
