    Great question Glen, what do you know? Aside from the fact that you LOVE your prescription drugs and wild right wing stories.
    I love how people on the right cannot accept that there isn’t a leadership with OWS because they are projecting the Tea Party BS into it.

    The ows does have leaders. How else did they raise 500k?

    Don’t be naive.

      I prefer to think of it as wilfully blinded by my bias. You are, however, completely correct. I concede I am not rich, and therefore emphasize much more with the OWS crowd than the slash social benefits crowd. Lets bring this fucker crashing down and come what may in the aftermath.

    gleen beck is one of those asshats who believes if china didn’t buy our bonds one day, armageddon could ensue.

    ignorance is popular on tv.

    i am on the 3rd day of a 5 day drinking/dead dude tradition. Ever been on a traditional old European dead dude celebration/funeral? Intense work.

    but! ignorance shall remain, no matter how drunk I get! one of the beauties. Someone will still think their bank deposits fund lending (utter falacy), someone else will sit down, woodie in his own hand, to a masturbatorial dream about how amazing a society of “savers” wouild be. (it would be the greatest economic fail in human history, barring some external amazing source of investment, btw).

    And I will simply note this:

    Europe will not be fixed by a quadrillioneuros of loans.

    Europe needs a way to create new currency. The US has this, its called the federal deficit. It doesn’t actually, btw, need to be repaid. But since y’all prolly are rockin an IQ of 60ish, … ya, even so, it still doesn’t ever (and won’t ever) need to be repaid. Sorry to ruin your “china buying our bonds” panic story. But that story is silly.

    What europe needs, to be plain, is A WAY TO CREATE NEW CURRENCY, which they currently lack.

    The Euro will fall, Europe will break up, I can’t think of a realistic otehr way. Because I can’t imagine the nations agreeing on how many new euros to create. Which is EXACTLY what they need.

    I know, in know, we need a gold standard, because that is pimpin, like puff daddy. Like, mega smooth. You saw it on a late night TV commercial, so it msut be pimpin!

    But what we actually need is no euro, no currency union, nobody who can’t print. Watch how much better off the masses become.

    Anyway: unless an agreement monetizes debt (permanently) or breaks up the euor OR sets up a system to print a few euros every year and distribute them, THAT SOLUTION CAN’T PERMANENTLY END THE CRISIS.

    No system with no mechaism to create new currency can survive.

    Write it down. Or just panic and preach some weird southern religiousish political view. Either way.

    any european solution, for thos eof you who like to smell your own armpits as you are screaming and chanting and, smelling your own armpits, and calling it churct…

    I mean, those o fyou who aren’t honestly all that bright, which is essentially everybody when it comes to economics…

    ANY EUROPEAN SOLUTION THAT DOESNT “MONETIZE” SOME OR MUCH DEBT, is pointless.

    They lack any way to create new currency. We don’t, Japan doesn’t. The worlds LOWEST bond yields have the HIGEST debt, but they can CREATE THEIR OWN CURRENCY. The Austrians are essentially anarchist ig’nants. Little More. Their hearts may be int he right place but htey literally don’t undersatnd the simplest aspects of modern reality.

    IF THE EUROPEANS DON’T CREATE MORE CURRENCY THEIR PLAN IS POINTLESS. write that down. anything but creation of currency is can kicking.

    They, clearly, should break up. At minimum expel th eentire PIIGS

    Tea Party vs Occupy Wall

    Glenn back is quite the character.

    The Evil brothers and Grover from sesame street vs. George Soros and Obamas. I think OWS would win if Michelle Obama got to fight too.

    I think in a real fight with all members the Tea Party angry Redneck gun toting folks would destroy Occupy Wall street Hipsters and Hippies .

    In a battle of odors OWS would be
    victorious, their only fair competition would have to come from the Arab spring.

    All the members from both groups in a battle of wits, now that would be tough to bet on with most the participants unarmed.

    The whole movement is just to deflect blame from Obama, so he can win another election. It’s not Obama’s fault, it’s the evil businesses. That’s why Soros and Buffett are backing the OWS movement.

    look, people are incredibly stupid and ignant.

    its either europe disperses currency (monetizes debt) or europe fucks itself with a gigantic strap on.

    its super, super simple, yet too complex for ivy league PHDs

    no matter! I have to go and do numerous shots of horrible choices of booze, due to the nature of the last 3 and next 2 days of my life, stupid europeans.

    But, please, post a bunch of “austrian school” commentary, which will ammount to an anti-liberal rant, if not a anarchist rant, and which will have utterly nothing to do with economics at all.

    But it will no doubt be charismatic. Lets run a national surplus! Screw it, this time is different!!!!!! This time it won’t cause a depression, this time is different! 4 smartest words in economic history!!!! This time is new!! The “austrian school” isn’t just a way for malcontent conservatives to sound smart while blogging, its a real time bomb, ready to wreck us all. Basis in reality? who cares!! we’re making a living blogging at mises.org!!! Concern for the greater good!??? who cares!!! we’re world famous and anything we post causes the world to rush recklessly into precious metals, reason be damned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

    Lets have a deflationary depression!! Screw it!!! Our kids and grandkids are too damn happy, lets fuck those bishes up!!!!

We dont, in fact, quite understand why our wives gigalo friend ran off last night after we disrobed int he kitchen, but screw it!!!!

      the more we promote panic the more peole read our blogs!!!! we are “austrian schoo”!!!! we don’t kow or care abou tcrap!! but

    and IF SOME ENTREPRENEURS AND CARRYERS READ OUR BLOG AND STICK AROUND WE CAN MAKE A LIVING DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!

    god bless the internet, we are political loonies posing as a school of economics.

    we will apologize later, once we re out of ad money, adn we can’t afford any more hookers and blow, for the damage we have done.

    8 intelloigent people

    8 trucks full of wall street cocaine

    8 greyhounds full of hookers

    were all to descend in DC, with a few worthless academic economists, we could save ourselves so easily.

    but as there will never be just the right ratio of cocaine to whores, we are doomed to die.

    Its not all about “hookers and blow”, its about “cocaine and whores” in just the right ratio.

    But, lacking that ratio, soon, we all die. badly, probably nuclear holocaust.

    certainly nuke holodime is more likely that an intelloigent solution in europe.

    SO WHY ARE YOU SO BULLISH

        super inefficent when i’m trying to protest and the limited supply of hookers is fighting over the limited supply of blow.

        nothing efficient about that!

    Beck is usually right, even if he sounds crazy (and probably is..)
    seriously, being a media personality in a world where 99.999% of the media is trying to implement socialism and peace through submission, you have to be crazy to speak against them….

    remember his “buy gold!!”? at a time when gold was 1/3 of what it is today? he is not a business guy, but he understood that Keynesian economics is just socialism in disguise.

    you have to break windows to create demand for new windows. fundamentally, you have to break stuff, and the more you break, the better off we will be in the long run.

    OWS wants to break everything. that’s their way to prosperity. kill successful people (“the rich”), kill successful systems like capitalism, and so on.

    in a zero sum world, this would make everyone equal. just like in North Korea. if all are poor, than all are equally wealthy.

    OWS beef is with those who have more, not with circumstances that caused them to have little.

    in other words, they would be happy if “the rich” just lost all their wealth and they would just be as unhappy if they were as wealthy as “the rich”.

    it is about inequality, not about lack of wealth.

    look at these kids with their apple notebooks and cellphones. they are wealthy, especially compared to actually poor people in other countries.

    they are just envious. nothing could please these kooks. nothing but the ruin of other people.
