I know Karl Denninger isn’t popular around here. I rather like him though. He calls “Zero The Hero” for exactly what he is.

I followed back that graphic that you posted and found the article at the URL above. It will probably change soon though...the content on it that is.

Squantos - Do you still have that URL that you sent me about the guy who gave a "man on the street" synopsis of the 2000 Argentinian collapse? It was about as close as anything we could expect here....very bleak. I made the kids here read it. We all agreed that it was good and could even help people to prepare.

You should repost it here for others. I've got it somewhere. If I find it first, I'll post it.

The U.S. certainly has very different political traditions from Argentina and more barriers to a populist-driven rape of the economy.

The author is incorrect with the second part of his assumption. We haven't had a single 'barrier' to a populist driven rape of what's left of the US for decades.

The inmates are running the asylum and the rest of us are WATF.

I figure we have a year, maybe, before the wheels really come off.
