<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jolumoga, post: 1865450, member: 41780&quot;]Japan has basically been in a depression for about two decades.&nbsp; The difference between us and Japan is that Japan has had more savers who bought Japanese bonds -- this is organic buying.&nbsp; Japan invented QE to fight deflation, though the aging demographics has made it a very difficult undertaking.&nbsp; Japan reached its demographic crisis earlier than us.&nbsp; Without QE, our trend is ineluctably deflationary like Japan&#039;s, except, lacking any organic buying of Treasuries, a dollar collapse is more probable.&nbsp; The idea that an economy can thrive and prosper with an aging population such as in Japan or the U.S. is pretty much ludicrous in my eyes.&nbsp; The future of our country lies not in the coin collector demographic that believes all is fine and dandy due to inflated equities and houses, but in its almost non-existent grandchildren and great-grandchildren (statistically-speaking).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
