US: Good and simple description of reality
  • What has happened over the last five years is no different to what would happen if I lost my job but didn't tell my wife.

    I would pretend to go to work every day and borrow a huge amount of money against my house so that everything appeared normal. She would think things were ticking along nicely.

    Until the day dawned when I could no longer borrow and our house was 100% loan collateral. I would have to front up and tell her the truth and at that moment her world would come crashing down around her ears.

  • sounds spot on Vitaliy.

  • Europe, the EZB (European Central Bank), is also available for this madness - our future is burned

  • Except that what you describe is true for the known world, not just one couple, a few people, or a few hundred million people. Monetary value is already contrived.
