Live Burial At the Hands of Voodoo Shaman
Unfortunately, we know that there is no Free Lunch in this world, so by seducing us into ignoring all of these risks and allowing them to grow unchecked in the meantime, these Central Banks are merely digging us a massive hole for our convenient live burial. So while once again I feel that familiar temptation to yield to the seduction of the moment by forgetting all facts and and data and sticking my head up my own ass; this time we have too many scars and know too much, not to realize it's just that same old black magic tempting us one last time...

Under that initiative, the Fed, since 2011, has been buying $45 billion a month in long-term Treasuries and selling the same amount in short-term Treasury notes on the open market.

That plan had helped keep the size of the Fed's holdings of Treasuries stable. But the Fed's holdings of short-term Treasuries are too low to renew that program. Instead, most economists expect the central bank to continue buying $45 billion a month in long-term Treasuries without a similar-size sale of short-term Treasury notes.

That means the size of the Fed's portfolio of Treasury securities would balloon, pumping money into the economy faster and providing a larger stimulus, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard recently noted. It also poses a greater risk of the Fed increasing inflation pressures. Why? If there isn't enough demand for the long-term bonds the Fed has purchased once economic growth is stronger, it will have to sell them at higher yields.

But it's not a "new" 4 trillion, now is it, it's simply a continuation of a program that has been going on for some period of time already. Part of it is only a rollover of short term/long term bonds for the purpose of reducing the active interest rate.

Perhaps you could repost the 2007 2nd amendment survey also.

Try to actually figure out what something says once before you post your Chicken Little "information".

How is it a "ghost asset" when the Fed makes a very public announcement of their clear intent and method?

Some "ghost".

About as accurate as your talk of a 2nd set of books, with the implication that they are secret, when the Fed is making quite open claims about what they are going to do.

It's great to think the process is insanity, and I would agree with that, but open declarations are hardly secret actions.

Even when you don't agree with something, it pays to be accurate with your accusations if you wish to make a cogent argument.

One of the tricks the CPI formula uses to keep the metric low is to remove food and energy from the CPI. Their reasoning for doing so is because food and energy are too volatile (they change too much and too often), and would skew the numbers on a month-to-month basis. Unfortunately, since food and energy consume a large portion of most family’s disposable income, the removal of those items from the CPI limits its usefulness in tracking price inflation.

Another method they use is called Hedonics. If the price of a car increases by 20% year over year, but the new car is slightly more fuel efficient, then often they’ll skew the numbers lower to try and take that into account. It doesn’t matter that from the perspective of the typical consumer that the actual price of a car is greater year over year, it only matters than the car now does more so in that case it wouldn’t increase the CPI much.

Yet another trick they use is to assume that people will stop buying items as they become expensive, and buy cheaper items instead. For example, if a family is used to eating prime-rib twice a week, eventually they’ll switch to eating exclusively hamburger if the price of prime-rib goes up too much. From a CPI perspective, the value wouldn’t change very much due to rising prices of prime-rib, since it’s assumed people would just switch to hamburger.

Real Unemployment Rate 14.6 Percent in October??

http://www.forbes.com/sites/peterferrara/2012/10/11/obamas-real-unemployment-rate-is-14-7-and-a-recessions-on-the-way/

Indeed, the working age population has increased by 8.4 million since President Obama entered office. With the same labor force participation as on Inauguration Day in January, 2009 (which would be closer to a real recovery), that would require 5.5 million new jobs just to keep up with the aforementioned population growth. But a generous reading of the data is that during President Obama’s entire term in office, a grand total of only 787,000 jobs have been created overall on net. And all of that net growth came in the last month. As of August, 2012, the economy was still suffering a net loss of jobs during Obama’s entire Presidency up to that point.

And all of that has just what relation to your incorrectly claimed assertion that a "new" 4 trillion was going to be spent starting the next day - based upon the article linked?

Specious BS does not correct statements that were completely wrong in the first place.

You can't escape the fact that YOUR original statement was pure BS.

BTW, the "linked" CPI concept is completely true, due to both the "change in the price of a substitute" and the "ability to pay" factors involved in the "Demand" function of Economics. It is not currently used for much, but should be used for most CPI related evaluations, but is being blocked by the Democrats.

Economics is an interesting subject, and quite informative relative to the predictability of financial behavior.

It's not working dlrjj and Fiat fractional banking is going to collapse soon enough. Entitlements either get cut with high Taxes or inflation kicks in or probably all three The perfect storm is coming.There will be a revolt against The Federal Reserve,it will cease to exist.
