Economic Hope Is Gone

…As 2012 began, there was still hope that the worst of the 2008/2009 downturn had been averted; that a slow but protracted recovery was underway. There is no such hope today. All central banks are printing money and easing credit; but are no longer doing so in the certainty that such actions will reverse what previous actions did not.

As 2012 ends, there is an underlying acceptance, a resignation that what is being done is being done in the abeyance of any real solution; and that although today’s actions may not be a viable answer, in the end such actions are better than no action at all.

Maybe so, maybe not…

The end game draws near.

Buy gold, buy silver, have faith.

As long as there is a private central bank, we can forget economic and political hope.
