The Global Economic Collapse appears to be gathering momentum. The Fed tried their last trump card (The buying of Government Bonds) to effectively increase the dollars in circulation. Nobody I know thinks that it will have any effect.

The World Economy is going to sh!t on a sleighride through hell. All there is left to do is protest that the countries in Europe are not doing enough to head this off.

Europe's lack of action is causing the American spending of thousands of billions of Dollars on twenty different things to be all for naught. The economy is still collapsing.
