Actually its just fitting the difference between excessive credit costs to help stimulate economic growth; the government controls money, now its being distributed away from large money lenders to keep us from falling into a recession.
LOL.

You never do break character, do you?

I would rather us live in a society where costs are not inflated and people live cooperatively with independence.

But with our market system that inflates costs and fills society with credit so basic goods can be afforded, we need an overall deficit to keep us afloat.

If Obama wasn't such a deficit hawk he could have bailed out homeowners who were losing their houses/capital but instead allowed all that wealth to funneled back into mortgage companies and wall street speculators.

Id say within our lifetimes, definitely. This kind of thing can only go on for so long, they can push it back somewhat, but not stop it.
