The headline on this one was (of course), “It’s not what it looks like! I can explain!”
Beautiful dog! Looks a lot like my mini doxie Dapple, given to a good new home when I came to Wyoming. He was a corker.
The money mess? Mr. Lynn might well be an optimist as to severity. The “debt bubble” is the highest in history, in whatever terms are used to measure–inflation adjustments, whatever. When this bubble pops, I figure the social turmoil will be horrible to behold.
When? I cite Mr. Doug Casey’s comment that although an event is inevitable, that doesn’t mean it’s imminent.
Mr. Lynn is just one of many who not only look at historical causalities, but are competent at arithmetic. Would that our politicians were so talented. However, it takes little talent to know that one does not get out of debt by borrowing more money.
