    Why not do the 1 trillion dollar coin seigniorage via treasury to avoid fiscal cliff?

    No because QE means the debt is purchased by the FED but we still have a debt on the balance sheet. This wipes out the debt, we are not borrowing from the FED but selling them a special limited edition collectors coin for 1 trillion bucks.

    Why not do the 1 trillion dollar coin seigniorage via treasury to avoid fiscal cliff?

    Man that would be quite interesting to see. Obama announcing a press conference and walking with Geitner and Bernanke and then opening up a special haliburton zero suitcase with 4 1 trillion dollar coins and handing it over to the Geitner which then he hands it over to Bernanke. I wonder how...

    Why not do the 1 trillion dollar coin seigniorage via treasury to avoid fiscal cliff?

    The trillion dollar coin is back. http://www.cnbc.com/id/100285772 More seriously, last year I was also worried that the creation of a trillion coin would be "highly inflationary." (Others also worried about inflation.) This concern now seems to me to be seriously misplaced. There would...

    Broker buys 1.6 mill shares, instead of 1625

    The issue is you have to plan your fake identity and escape routes before the crime. If you plan on committing the crime you need to be sure you have a well rehearsed exit plan and set of identities ready to go. These people after the crime is unmasked try and do all of it rushed and on...

    Why is Balmer still the CEO of Microsoft?

    The missed the biggest paradigm shift in computing, missing out on the Mobile space completely. Microsoft could have been worth double or triple what it is today. Instead its pretty much been stagnant since Ballmer took over while the world moves by them. Why dont the shareholders look for...

    Obama to ask for 50B to reimburse hurricane sandy losses!

    This is what pisses me off of this whole Lemon Socialism. If your a business and you fail to pay insurance and instead pocket that money that would have paid for insurance over the years, why should the taxpayer fund you? Why not let them use that money they pocketed as extra profit and...

    Productivity Skyrockets again, no need to hire.

    You still do not get it. What is the point of hiring 3 people if one person can do the job of 3. No company is going to hire people so they can just sit around twiddling their thumbs.

    Why not do the 1 trillion dollar coin seigniorage via treasury to avoid fiscal cliff?

    Requires none of this mess with Congress, All Obama has to do is call up Geithner and tell him to mint that special edition "Obama collectors coin" and have the fed pay 1 trillion for it. Put that up as the big stick for negotiations. Our T-bill yields are at record lows anyhow. And...

    These "Hedge fund" aggregator sites (ie Covester etc..)

    I notice one thing in common, none mention assets under management. Anyone can make a 60% return on 500 dollars. Why not offer the Assets under management figure. Someone making 12% on 2.5 million AUM is more impressive than someone making 60% on 500 bucks.

    Who is Fed buying $40B/mo of MBS from?

    The beauty of our system is the FED just needs to print currency, then use the currency to purchase these MBS notes. The FED does not need to borrow. What they are doing in essence is printing money to increase the supply of money. Now the Velocity of money is a different story, most banks...

CBS, Wirelathe/plaster walls inside, Tounge and groove roof, wide concrete tie beam attached with metal straps to florida pine. Them old homes are nicer, also the architecture...

    Looks like the US will have a European style housing environment.

    But that is like paper trading. no one wants to move into some podunk town where there are 20 jobs paying 6 bucks an hour and nothing to do in the town. You cant just say oh, everyone move to Iowa. because no one is moving to Iowa even if the homes are dirt cheap.
