US Financial Quagmire Bringing Out the Scammers
coondoggie contributes this snippet from NetworkWorld: "You could probably see this one coming. With all of the confusion and money involved you knew there would be cyber-vultures out there looking to cash in. Well the Federal Trade Commission today issued a warning that indeed such increased phishing activities are taking place. Specifically the FTC said it was urging user caution regarding e-mails that look as if they come from a financial institution that recently acquired a consumer's bank, savings and loan, or mortgage. In many case such emails are only looking to obtain personal information — account numbers, passwords, Social Security numbers — to run up bills or commit other crimes in a consumer's name, the FTC stated."

The Chinese can pound sand. We'd still wipe them out in a shooting war and they know it. In 10 years it will all be over, 15 at the outside. Baby boom retires, taps retirement, print still more money, dollar and euro are done. Inevitable.
Do you really believe we ever intended for the Chinese to collect on the dollars. The fucking Arabs?
Do you believe in the SS trust fund as well.
Easter bunny?
It's not so much that 'they' did it on purpose, it's just that once running there was nothing to be done but hang on.
Buy land, seeds, guns and ammo cause Darwin is going to come knocking for the slow and trusting. Real assets are the only hard currency left.
This will be the first mega inflationary cycle with internet. Perhaps a new independent hard currency can save us but I doubt it.
