Was watching an analyst on CNN he predicted a trillion dollar deficit in 2009 for the US. The automakers are in trouble along with airlines that are now failing Freddie and Fannie are being bailed out so the trillion dollar question is where is this money coming from? This whole thing is getting dangerously out of control the american tax payer is going to carry this burden for years the pain has only begun. People are just beginning to see how bad things really are. What does this mean to you and me honestly i don't know how does anyone but a good investment for the not to distant future has to be gold because the dollar isn't going to be worth anything.
