Why are you substituting theory with the persons personality? I listened to it top to bottom, surprised that I could at work. So back to the theory that was presented. What is in your case wrong with that theory, in lieu of the attempts by our government already to date? Secondly this is not at the prez level because he just signs what congress puts in front of him. In all honesty do you see the crumble of capitalism able to morph itself in the next 6 months or even a year? I don't because we have the same leaders who are playing with the outdated playbook. The shit has hit the fan and broke it lose. We still have a SEC chair that will allow SHORTS to be the only way to make a buck for the near future and the Fed has shot it's load and worthless for now. Any ideas on a fix?
