I’ve long been a fan and follower of John Williams SGS.

Last March I think it was that I watched Mr. Bernanke appear before the Senate banking committee and he laid out the plan. A double dip recession, though he didn’t call it that, is part of the plan.

Bernanke said, using a balloon metaphor that the Fed would re-inflate the economy with low interest rates. Before the economy heats up and the balloon pops, Bernanke said the Fed will increase rates which will have the effect of gradually letting out the air, or take the steam out of the heated up economy gradually and in orderly process.

Bernanke advocated that we can’t truly recover from the collapse until we re-inflate then de-flate orderly to a natural bottom. It is then and only then that we will truly see a sustainable recovery.

As I recall he talked in terms of 5 years for this to play out.

You ask if this is a sucker’s rally? It’s the plan, man.

Hello Greg,

In a previous post, a topic emerged regarding statistics verses “gut” feelings (anecdotal evidence).

I believe the consensus was that the “gut” feeling of the average Jack or Jane was probably a better gauge on the economy verses Obama press releases.

CPI SEEMS to be proving those “gut” feelings to be accurate.

I am becoming a regular on this site because Greg backs-up his findings and opinions with statistics and historical data. He cites his sources. You and John Stossel seem to have been made from the same mold.

No dogma based on ideology tinged with religous fervor here, just the facts, with well thought-out questions.

I’ve been watching this unfold as an unemployed construction manager for years! {my unemployment is now 26 months long} I have never been represented in the “official stats” because I was a 1099. I paid a precious $1400 in advance for liability insurance in FY09 which I haven’t been able to use, but couldn’t advertise my services in advance without it…. This policy was $1200 the year before and my protest was met with the remark “well your in construction and that is a riskier industry now”…..????????????? No work = greater risk?

Let me know if I can support your watchdogging in anyway other than financial!
Keep up the good work so I know I’m not the only crazy street preacher in western Mass!
flounderlingly,
