Government bails out banks, banks bail out the government. Circle of Life, and all that.

I thought banks making loans to unqualified borrowers was the thing that got this whole mess started. Why encourage more of that?

They’re going to run out of sources to borrow money from. What happens then?

1) The Chinese are our leading lenders. The question is how much MORE are they willing to lend ?

3) They can always PRINT money.

4) Finally, they can always TAKE your money ( and REDEFINE the world TAKING or TAXING ).

The only thing they will NOT consider is this --- DECREASE SPENDING.

They confiscate more property from the American taxpayer.
Then, after they destroy private wealth and industry..they print more money. It isn’t going to end well.

At the rate we're going and if we don't stop it, you might see it in your lifetime.

When silver hits the price of gold before the Fed was created LOOK OUT. That will be about 28 per oz.

Being a former examiner, I wonder if examiners would criticize these loans for being bad credit quality after being compelled to make them???

Audit the Fed. Then disolve it. Get rid of ‘reserve’ banking which has been taxing Europe and England since the 1600s and the US since 1912 via inflation. The Federal Reserve is our 4th central bank. They only work for the bankers and politicians at the expense of the people.
