“Our depression will start the day after Obama’s re-election.”

###

I don’t know what we are in now, but economic conditions are every bit as bad as they were during the “Great Depression”.

The only thing propping us up is the CRIMINAL improprieties (printing money) by the Federal Government.

This is fiscal irresponsibility and insanity at a surely breathtakingly disastrous level, that would have been unthinkable back in the 1930s.

If the federal government was only printing money, things wouldn't be the same. Right now, the federal reserve (not the government) prints the money and the federal government borrows that money from the fed.

As things are right now, we get all the same inflation of printing our own money, but this way, we get the bonus of accumulating debt.

And, France's Great Depression started with Hollande's victory. I view the Hollande win as a rebuke of Sarkozy, the French are sick and tired of there economic predicament and would have voted for anybody but Sarkozy. Little do they know that Hollande’s economic policies will be disastrous. Hollande will not be reelected and the French will become more Nationalistic, foreigners beware!
