Ya don't say?

1. Saying what? Anyway I'm not saying anything, just reprinting what I consider interesting piece of analytics. My only part was "the end is near" for dramatic effect.

Yeah I'm not buying it.
Alarmist propoganda.

Perfect use of the homer simpson pic.

2.It could have been propaganda if that was some official, corporate or mainstream outlet, not some personal blog. 3.Practically all "alarmist" opinions on the matter exists within "alternative" media like OTM.

global negative interest rate on all savings above a certain volume per person/company + global minimum wage. problem solved.

4.What interest rate did you mean specifically? Not quite getting the "global" part, Fed's refinancing interest rate? Deposits? All of them?

5.If the former, that'd mean "free" money for commercial banks, effectively Fed is lending its money-printing machine to everyone else. After few rounds of QE, it should be clear that won't fix anything.

US is certainly not the only country in economic trouble. China's rapid growth has stopped (and their real-estate bubble is way worse than the US' bubble!), Russia's economy is quickly going down the crapper etc.

6.You're missing the point. First of all, we're talking about global economy and therefore everyone is interconnected at some level. Second of all, you repeat stereotypes (especially if that's CNBC).

2. Alarmism is not mutually exclusive to corporate interest, regardless of the fact that the blog you cited is of a published author who benefits finacially from drawing attention to himself. In some ways, OP is an advertisment.

3. Demonstrably false.

1. Using "The end is near" is by definition, being alarmist.

4-6. Don't really feel like addressing.
