The US govt will continue to print dollars so long as the rest of the world allows them to, after all, it's the rest of the world that is footing the bill.

What I mean is this: the smartest thing is for the US govt to continue to print as many trillions of dollars that it can , because the so-called free forex exchange market is allowing them to not only print trillions, but also is actually increasing the value of the damn thing... How sweet is that?! think about it... the US Govt can print a trillion dollars and spend it on just about anything it wants and they will not have had to raise a finger or expended even an ounce of energy to do it! And the goddamn world votes the US dollar higher!

Okay, I've probably over simplified the situation as there are obviously economic laws which prevent the US govt from doing everything or anything it wants with impunity, but....

How stupid can the Chinese /Japanese/Arabs be?! The Arabs ship millions of barrels of oil to the USA and all the americans do is ship them back freshly printed greenbacks! Talk about funny...lol I mean there's only so much american stuff the Arabs can purchase with those bucks...

Why should americans give a hoot about the national debt right now? Sure, eventually the whole scheme will explode but in the meantime, milk it baby, milk it....Sure the wealth of the nation will be utterly destroyed, but right now the US is getting tons of free stuff... Austerity is a better option you say? Foggedabouditt! lol It's way, way past that point now, kids!

Just make sure those pigs in Washington share the free stuff with all 300 million americans and not just their cronies.....

Ps. I hear it will take 200 billion US dollars to rebuild the whole infra-structure of the nation... why not print 200 billion and hire 1000 Chinese engineering firms to come on over and build it all?... they can even bring a few thousand chinese nationals over to do the work...and to think it would just take " the Bernank" to press a computer key and then "Turbo Tax, Tiny Tim" to press another computer key ...and voila...it's a done deal....
