   “Coffee would have already been right if we didn’t have QE 1 2 and 3. Matthew they are propping up the Market with monoploy money. Oh yeah.”
   ______________________________

   If you want to put it that way, then every major economy is being propped up with monopoly money. There is no magical country that’s using a non-fiat currency, that has no central banks, and is somehow thriving. What’s lost in all of the hysterics over The Fed is this simple truth: America is still the least terrible option. That’s not an optimistic view, but that’s the way it is. Who’s going to call us on QE: China? Europe? They’re even worse.

   I am voicing my political opinions. These are things as I see them. I don’t think it is bad thing thing to be passionate about your politics. I don’t put to much stock in any politician but I do believe the road President Obama is leading us down is disastrous.

   @Matthew
   You might, in general, be inclined toward worst-case-scenario thinking because, on some level, you know this will be damaging to the current president.

   I shall consider your thoughts in future post Matthew.

   @Coffee: Sorry if I was being overly mean or confrontational. I’m just stressed out, since I’ve spent all of my free time in the last month playing nursemaid to a Dachshund with a herniated disc. I have a short fuse for Human Beings right now.

   Sometimes it’s better to struggle. Printing money only makes it worse.

   Hang in there, you know I’m a little stressed right now. I am going to do something else. You have great evening. I always enjoy your posts they are well thought out and intelligent. No jab there I mean it.

   “Printing money only makes it worse.”

   That depends entirely on the recession. You know, the period without centralized banking and fiat currency wasn’t some amazing period of economic stability in the U.S.. Just look at all of the recessions and depressions during the 19th century. They were frequent, and they were devastating, with GDP sometimes declining as much as 30%. The unpredictability of commodities (for example, the discoveries of new silver mines) lead to frequent deflation and wealth destruction. There’s a reason that even right-leaning economists mostly favor the existence of centralized banking, and agree that small (1 – 5%) annual inflation is a GOOD thing for an economy. Just because a lot more Republican candidates are taking up Austrian School rhetoric, that doesn’t mean that those views are actually mainstream or popular.

   Alright, thank you. Have a nice evening. It’s just been so long since I’ve had time to read this site that I’m going a little overboard.

    Just to play devil’s advocate, it is possible that the show does well in one of those 3 hours (in which case I can’t imagine how low the other hours are). Something like ‘Fox & Friends’, which got 1,532K for the 8am hour, but averaged only 1,119K for the entire program.
