Central bankers in charge of the vast bulk of the world's economy delved deep into the weeds of money markets and interest rates over a three-day conference here, and emerged with a common plea to their colleagues in the rest of government: please help.

Mired in a world of low growth, low inflation and low interest rates, officials from the Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank said their efforts to bolster the economy through monetary policy may falter unless elected leaders stepped forward with bold measures. These would range from immigration reform in Japan to structural changes to boost productivity and growth in the U.S. and Europe.

I won't be here after the election and vote.

If Hillary wins - I will be busy, BLOAT! (It won't be long before she won't let you buy.)

If Trump wins, I won't be here to GLOAT. (I don't want to hang around while everyone looks at every speck in his eye.)

Well, I was laughing at the central bankers, figuring they got what they deserved. Figuring also that to help them we would eventually be having to pay for it.

Then, here comes the next article that I posted. Sure enough, we will have to pay big time!!

I kept thinking during the last two elections that Obama wasn't going to be that bad. Just another Bill Clinton. Boy was I wrong! When he said fundamentally change America, he did mean it.

And Hillary will be far, far worse than Obama.

I hope our Navy likes riding Harvey Milk.

From the article:

Quote
Kuroda acknowledged that household expectations have not moved, and said the BOJ was prepared to continue its battle to figure out how to shift them. In modern monetary theory, households and business expectations are felt to play a defining role in spending and investment decisions, and thus in shaping inflation and growth.

Well, crap, fellas.  What do you expect?

There's no "investment" left anymore that has a good return, except the stock market.  Regular people can't make money in a savings account, bonds, or anything like that -- they just have to trust the managers of the various 401(k) and such, to make a decent return.

The dollar isn't going to lose it's world reserve currency status anytime soon.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
