For your information, we have lost $4 to $6 trillion dollars in housing wealth (yes, mainly fictitious, but gone none-the-less) in just the last year and another $4 trillion lost in the stock market.

And with that kind of capital/debt destruction, you are telling me that $700 billion in monetization is taking us Weimar? What the hell are you smoking?

Mr. Stockman is quoted as saying:"None of us really understands what's going on with all these numbers,"

Of course, Mr. Stockman was drunk and in the company of a reporter at the time he said this...
