(Bloomberg) -- Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin cautioned against taking rock-bottom interest rates for granted and said the government should take advantage of the moment by substantially increasing the maturity of its debt, including possibly issuing ultra-long bonds

If you don't think we are headed for a dollar crisis ask yourself this question. How does the Fed stop the dollar from falling? It must sell all the bonds it's been buying, allow interest rates to surge, and force the government to slash spending. Do you think this will happen?
1/ LIQUIDITY v. SOLVENCY At market level: government bond buying can solve LIQUIDITY (by buying bonds + propping up prices with no bids) At company level: they cannot solve SOLVENCY (when (growing) debts exceed ability to pay them)...
American "capitalism:" The Fed keeps interest rates artificially low, diverting funding from capital investment on Main Street to speculation on Wall Street. Publicly traded companies sell bonds to buyback stock, and when they can't pay their debts the government bails them out.

Question: Barry Bonds got convicted of lying to the government. But who gets convicted when the government lies to us?
But there is. The MoneyTree Policy Committee has magicked up £445bn of new money to buy government and company bonds!
