So you think that we must say those other people racked up that $10 trillion and keep on racking up another $6 trillion in 3 years and continue to say "Well hell they did it so why shouldn't we. Come on Mike, you know better than that.

It is never too late unless we want to become socialistic in nature. Right now QE 3 has begun and if we stop that soon enough we won't be in so deep we can't come back.

Have you never seen any of the cartoons about China's inflation of the early 50s? How about the old Jew going to the store for a loaf of bread in Weimar Germany? All those people survived and look where those two countries are today. No it is not too late if you start following some economically responsible practices.
