A drop in inflation demand can be always be countered by Fed purchases. Try learning something about monetary policy and inflation before writing your descriptions.

@AntiSchiff A drop in inflation demand?

@AntiSchiff While a drop in Treasury demand can always be countered with Fed purchases, it doesn't mean the Fed would actually do that. I did just write an article this week, however, asking if the Fed would use QE3 for the sole purpose of subsidizing the government's out of control spending.

Is there a particular fund manager you don't like?

Cramer is a stock picker and one thing I have learned about stock picker is that they are not economists.

@CommonSenseCap

Enough of these bullshit Fund Managers on CNBC. The American people need to know the REAL information from people like Rick Santelli. Cramer might have a personality also, but the words he yells are hardly accurate (Oct. 2007 and March 2009)
