Title: are they talking about us?
Post by: the founder on April 02, 2013, 09:46:16 PM
America has grown desperate for smart ideas to revive a flagging economy. Sunday night in the Financial Times I read one of the most desperate: an op-ed by UCLA economist Roger Farmer arguing that the Federal Reserve should deliberately re-inflate a new asset price bubble to goose the economy

No seriously,  are they?   .com's in the late 1990's .. social media in the early 2000's.. housing in the mid 2000's , then nothing for 5 years (hence the problem).. now all of a sudden this?  of all things bitcoins?  I'm not really complaining..  I'm just observing something.
