Bernanke wants to cut the deficit, but he doesn't want to either:
A: Raise taxes, or
B: Cut spending.

What part of this equation do you understand?

    Hey Capt,

    I guess he wants QE2,3,4,5,6,7,8.....

    And a few more 'Man of the Year' honors from Time Magazine. Maybe a Presidential Medal of Honor.

    What he said was that HE didn't want to be the one to do it - that is better left to the politicians.

    What a guy!

    I knew it would happen.

    Cutting spending and deficits seems to be a popular topic nowadays, but most of the speeches by those in positions of authority seem to include some version of "now is not the time". I can't help wondering when it ever will be the time.

    How do you think he will respond to Japan cutting interest rates?

    Fixing this disgrace in all fifty States and on a Federal level would be a good start.

    Simply put, NO country wants their currency strong. I don't think any country is even giving lip service that they want a strong currency!Great for gold appreciation and you are seeing that today in the price of gold. MJ

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
