never said it would fix the stock market. I've not been concerned with wall street. I only said it was necessary to prevent total meltdown of the credit markets.

And you are right to be concerned about stagflation, too. what needs to happen is that interest rates must rise to demand driven levels so new credit is handed out with due diligence.

difficult for me to comment right now as I am typing this on my capitalist created smartphone.
