As I said "talk". Clearly, there is no sure thing.

Did I say it was? No. But there's no denying the amount of money going into startups there that if interest rates do go up, will then dry up because better return can be made elsewhere. Lack of funds = no need to employ so many people.

If you fallow the world news and not just local stuff you get a lot more information.
I was keeping touch on a survivalist board for a while where a lot more information is being shared from around the world.
Actually I look at all news -not daily- but watch financials, Chinese, Spanish and the Brits- then run through all our cables channels - and CSPAN and local recorded live channels -I read all kinds of stuff from all over so - no--I only see one group that lives in the fear factor

Greece has already announced that they're going to default on their loans and that's going to affect things. They're trying to work with them to stave off the change in currency valuation but if it happens they'll be out of the eurozone. This has been put off for several years now with temporary band-aids and another month isn't going to make a bit of difference. Once it occurs it will be a domino affect.

So you figure that Greece is going to bring down the entire world economy? Better put everything in gold, right now.

I don't care how crazy it seems, how preposterous, how unlikely......

When Ron Paul talks, I pay attention

I'm not saying it will bring down the entire world economy. More like Greece will be voted out with maybe one country standing by it trying to work with them as everyone else walks away. The result in the US will be mixed but the effect will be felt globally as everyone shifts around in their seats to the new arrangement.

Personally, I feel they should all sit down and hit the reset button on the national debts.

It's anything to do with Ron Paul, so, yes.

yep, they're happy to feed from the gov't trough when it's them getting the benefit. If the benefit is for someone else, they are against it all of a sudden.
