wAIT... the recession's OVER?

O.o ???

yeah, I read that official policy will be to keep interest rates low and thought "I win in my epic bets against idiot politicians."

Then I realized what that was going to do to every other part of my life, and immediately poured vodka.

Sure. Just screw the rubes who've actually been saving all this time. Who gives a snotbucket about THEM?

That's OK -- pressure on yields, and therefore on rates, will be coming; when that happens all the folks who didn't save will be cast into the exterior darkness where they'll wail and gnash their wallets.
