There's a better word for what I am: an apatheist. It's a neologism that fuses "apathy" and "theism." It means someone who has absolutely no interest in the question of a god's (or gods') existence, and is just as uninterested in telling anyone else what to believe.
My blog is worth $30,485.16.
How much is your blog worth?

I somewhat disagree with the article. Yes much of what he speaks is already taking place right now. But much of the garbage loans and deleveraging are working there way out of the system right now. Savings and frugality are now the in thing. Banks will hold tight to their money until they have no choice but to loan it.
Also remember that the money from the recovery act doesn't take effect until July 1. To think that inflation will be rampant is unrealistic because there's still much debt to be worked out of the system.
I get my info from Bondad's blog and Paul Krugman and they haven't been wrong yet.
To G'xmas: fixed your link.
To Demeur: I agree, Bonddad and Krugman have been the most reliable sources in recent years, and the current economic crises isn't quite the 'end of America' that some like Hedges forcast. Time will tell.
