So this is what they meant when they said "buy on the sound of gunfire!"

Things really haven't got bad at all yet:

Almost nowhere has had a recession yet
Unemployment has barely stirred
Corporate profits (non-financial sector) haven't fallen particularly

When the front page of the FT has a picture of Hank Paulson getting the Mussolini treatment from an angry mob, that'll be the time to buy.

There's nothing wrong in having moose around.

There are various ways it can be forced through but the simplest thing (and certainly the best politically) is for it to gain cross-party consensus. The longer this goes on I suspect the more entrenched the Free Market grouping is likely to become.

Thanks for that update.

Economies in recession and depression don't need as much oil.

Welcome to deflation. Even if the bill gets passed in the future it is still deflation. The extra money isn't enough to stop the deflating consequences of the mega-boom and all the mal-investment that went with it.
