Canada is going to be ok!

I have been reading a little bit about business, the economy and the workings of Wall St and I would have to say I am a little upset about it. Some things are done each and every day in this world that are just plain wrong. Wall St and Federal Reserve practices may just bring about total economic collapse, and nobody, especially the US government think anything's amiss.

In my reading, I have seen numerous comments from economists that foresee troubling times ahead for the US and Europe. Soon we will see a period of deflation where the housing market as well as the stock market devalue by as much as 30% followed by a severe lack of trust in government Bonds and T-Bills. All activity dies as investors stay away in droves. Commodities will then take a sudden surge in price and finally, hyperinflation kills the currency. What a future.

There is a not so new indicator that shows accurately what a country's overall economic health is. This is information that would be really valuable to help you see how traditional corporate business and government practices kill any long term stability and growth. The Debt to GDP ratio is a great way to instantly determine a countries financial stability. For instance, Japan has been suffering from flesh eating disease for over a decade with 200% Debt to GDP ratio. They need some solution fast because resources dont last forever. Italy with 121% Debt to GDP ratio is doing a slooow spiral into oblivion. And then you have the US with a 98% ratio, the interest on the massive debt the US must pay is really scary. By 2012 , they will hit 110% Debt to GDP ratio and start a process that will assuredly end in severe hyperinflation and turn the once all powerful US dollar into Monopoly money.

That's NOT how I see it!

Following the news these days can be very frustrating because there seems to be articles, news stories that I have heard different details of the events. Happenings like the sinking of a S Korean warship by N Koreans, details of what really happened with the Polish leaders plane and the Christmas Underwear bomber. Not to mention what we don't hear about with the Gulf of Mexico gushers. I feel garbage is being shoved down our throats and I don't like it. What's worse, I'm pissed that these people don't think we know what they're doing.

I want the US shadow depts to stop. Stop spending your drug money and hidden budgets and do what's right as a decent human being. I pray you even know what that is.

Blog, blog blog!

I have been reading so many blogs lately it is making my head spin and getting my shorts in a knot I might add. I'm getting just a little bit jealous because I feel all these bloggers are thinking they have cornered the market on intelligent, sensible and humerous thought, and it doesn't help that they have a wide following that hangs on their every word! Most of these so-called experts are expounding on every subject and topic under the sun using perfect grammar and their endless wealth of knowledge, and it's making me sick.
I'm asking myself, I have an intelligent opinion on most subjects, I LOVE to read a lot and I remember everything. I even think I have a world class charm and wit (ok, 2 out of 3 ain't bad) but dammit I'm good enough and yes, everybody likes me! I need a mirror right about now. In my head is an avalanche of thought and comment that seems to explode always. I need to be careful not to alienate or irritate those around me because I can get a real good head of steam going most times but I'm surprised if people start tuning me out. That's not right because I got something to say!
Nowadays I have to skip over the comments section of any particular post because I usually end up getting really pissed off and sick to my stomach. Can't stand all the fawning anymore.

Comments welcomed.
