Sounds good to me-- like music to ones ears.. I see they are plowing in more money to try to shore up everything. Market jumped today but I am in the camp that says with fuel prices where they are , there well be a continued rise in commodity prices and that will hit about to hit everyone, not just USA. Although USA has kept with fair employment numbers they will get some more squeezing unless they can stay with the program.

If fuel prices do not fall back, than all energy will adjust, I would think. My latest hydro bill indicated to me that it had started. I don't think that a slight slowing in USA or Canada will change that at all..... as the other countries now can see what leading countries have and will want the same..

Communications today, being what it now is, is a tool that we never had before, and will also educate all the masses on what a decent lifestyle one may have , that we, and others take for being normal. This has been happening now for say the last 10 years or so, but now is increasing daily I feel or shall we say rapidly, like we have never seen. I certainly have seen it and others will not stop till they can enjoy some of it.

Remember? - gasoline being sold by the Gallon. New cars that cost $3000. Ice cream cone or pop costing a Dime.. Gold was "$35.00 an ounce .......Well ,,I do.

It all has increased in value you say.. I say NO. No it has not increased at all.... It's our dollar just is not as good as it once was.

Yes we might as well get use to the fact that most things are now and will continue to cost more .. GOLD INCLUDED

My thoughs are as follows..

How many people do you know want to sit on US Dollars, Indian Rupies, Brazillian Cresado's or Cresero's or what ever they call them nowadays.... for the next, say..... 2 years.... never mind 5 or 10 years..

Yes they are a little shakey ...to say the least.

Things will cost more..so Get prepared
