If most sane common sense folk were presented with a friend who was say 18 thousand dollars in debt and unable to meet his monthly expenses like, netflix, cable, season ticket costs, etc., we wouldn't tell him to go out and get a personal loan and spend more money on a blue ray entertainment center and a sports car to get out of his problems. We'd tell him to work at cutting the luxuries, paying off debt, and saving. That's what the government needs to do to. What it is doing is going to lead to inflation. I've been following the price of gold with the widget <a href="http://www.learcapital.com/exactprice" rel="nofollow">ExactPrice</a> and I kind of get the feeling a fair number of investors are feeling the same way as gold is seeing some moves upward. I can only figure this is because so many are looking at it as a safe haven from the dollar which a number of economists like Sprott and Schiff are warning against. Whatever happens I know that I'm going to work at saving and debt elimination. Fact is the government really shouldn’t be dabbling in saving the economy via more spending anyway.
