Most people I know who oppose short selling do so on the grounds that: "short selling only exists in the finance sector" Try to other assets except financial assets and becomes virtually impossible. thank you for sharing your wise comments

If only all those in power read "Capitalism & Freedom" what a different world this would be

I still have my doubts about the morality of short selling. You can only practice short selling in the finance economy. Try doing it with cars, appliances and other assets.............see what happens.

I defaulted 1 year ago. So far no problems...........just lots and lots of phone calls even on SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

I agree somewhat..............explain how the Fed will issue new currency in circulation. As far as I know there is only one way to do so and that precisely whey we have excess reserves.

Both of you make interesting comments......however dont forget that the system is already loaded up with debt. That what I call a dam of excess reserve. The worst thing that can happen to a central bank has happened. Liquidity trap. However the concept might defer the ending point is the...

All the above could happen................who knows...................but I doubt it will be because of the reason(s) you point out.

Although banks sit in oceans of excess reserves, it is highly probable that they will remain where they are. Currently, there is a dam in place preventing excess reserves from finding their way into the financial system, creating money, creating debt, creating inflation. Obviously it is a...

Such words are too dangerous. Careful with what you say. Exercising the first amendment is not without cost.

Since WS is not free market oriented it must be highly regulated. Decades of mergers and acquisitions plus bubbles, have weakened the power of the free market and replace it with corporatism.
