The bad actors and incompetent have been incentivised to keep on failing whilst productive, law-abiding savers have been disenfranchised and stolen from ... bailouts and inflation.

Krugman was not just an apologist for this criminal behaviour but a vociferous proponent and political activist in many ways. He should be indicted imho, leaving academia in disgrace is too good for him.

Notice too the connection between Krugman and all those "bad actors" in our society who reap the benefits.  The mindset is exactly the same: Narcissist, big ego, too-big-to-fail, bullying, condescending, low EQ and no empathy, and eventually unmasked and dismissed for being incompetent.  There are not many differences between Krugman and many awful C-level executives that I've met in my day.

Cameron is tweeting as if it's all but certain:

https://twitter.com/winklevoss/status/489060649838714881

It's a two week old video, the fact he's tweeting it now is a pretty big hint it's just around the corner  Shocked

That would be rather .... fast. And a rather nice surprise.

I AM READY!  Grin

yeah I saw, maybe just in time. Congrats Smiley

(Probably in time by a large margin though, let's not kid ourselves Wink)

"Barclays: There has been no long-term shift in bearish sentiment"

“Overall, we believe that physical demand has remained short of expectations, the latest price increase having been driven largely by speculation,” wrote Eugen Weinberg, commodity strategist at Commerzbank in Frankfurt, in a note."

oh my, tradercj, oh my.

Bitcoin down, Mr. Shill.  Amazing how "people" like you can't seem to fathom a world where both Bitcoin and gold flourish.  No matter, more profits for me.  Thanks.

Oh, and since when does the Bitcoin community give two shits about journalists negging Bitcoin?  Same goes for PMs in my book.  Let them scream bloody murder, I'll be laughing.

you know, there's a reason why your name has a little "t".

In making its recommendations, the VCAT specifically addressed NIST's interactions with the National Security Agency (NSA). The report states, "NIST may seek the advice of the NSA on cryptographic matters but it must be in a position to assess it and reject it when warranted."

"The report also recommends that NIST review the current requirement for interaction with the NSA and recommends changes in instances where it "hinders [NIST's] ability to independently develop the best cryptographic standards."

"We will continue to work with the best cryptography experts in the world, both inside and outside of government," said May. "At the same time, we recognize and agree with the VCAT that NIST must strengthen its in-house cryptography capabilities to ensure we can reach independent conclusions about the merits of specific algorithms or standards."

"The common understanding is that the UK 'helps' Africa through aid, but in reality this serves as a smokescreen for the billions taken out," said Martin Drewry, director of Health Poverty Action, one of the NGOs behind the report. "Let's use more accurate language. It's sustained looting – the opposite of generous giving – and we should recognise that the City of London is at the heart of the global financial system that facilitates this."

lol, such bankster failure.  look here:

the mere fact, however, that they mention Nobel Prize and Bitcoin in the same sentence proves we're on to something and that they are worried.

Quote
In the video clip, ING economist Teunis Brosens theorizes that in order to function as efficiently as traditional currencies, a bitcoin algorithm needs to be developed that “smoothly matches money supply and demand”.

Quote
“Real currencies dampen these fluctuations by regulating money supply and prices through interest rates, but it is an explicit goal of bitcoin to do away with central authorities.”

The dollar has been relatively stable for over 10 years now.  Stability is generally followed by volatility and the dollar should be no exception despite fed policy.  The fed doesn't have a "tool" to "fix" loss of confidence.  The dollar should experience volatility over the next decade or so.  Whether it be massive inflation, massive deflation, or wild swings in both directions, it will have these guys eating crow.
