Bailout No One Ever! Let the free market and freedom of will balance out our economic system. A free market can recover faster than any John Maynard Keynes system. Water seeks its' own level. The difference in a major recession taking 10 years to recover or only 2 years is the pain. Take the short term free market pain!

alright im pretty sure the video you where referring to was the one when Jim was in-front of a big stock board, but anyway if you watch the entire video he explains his reason for doing what he was saying. The reason he gave back in the 30s it was a run on the back, now banks collapse because of bad loans, and other things you would have to watch the video he does explain himself

If you read Jim's writing, you will see he is successful because he doesn't give a s*** about economic dogma; the Austrian School falls in this category.

You totally miss the point. Had the Fed bailed out homeowners and bad mortgages first, this would have naturally bailed out the banks, fundamentally. Now the Fed, due to their stupidity, will have bailed out the banks and now the homeowners at twice the cost that it would have been. This is what nailed us. We are now bankrupt and all the negative monetary issues that follow, lack of consumer confidence, high unemployment, inflation and food shortages. Printing money is not the answer.

If you like Jim Rogers, look up Peter Schiff's videos, articles, and his podcast at Peter-Schiff . com. Get out of the dollar.

I'm Austrian. I follow you. I have been of the same opinion for some time, but the banks still aren't lending and interest rates are at a quarter of a percent now, I'm starting to think we may be headed for a deflationary spiral. What do you think the probabilities are for that?

I think Jim Rogers is an Austrian. He did support Ron Paul for president, and he says the Fed should be abolished.

Good man giving Schiff his due at the end. :)

Look into the Amero. You will see his point on many of the topics discussed.

There is no busines cycle problem at all. You cannot control economic cycles any more. That is, what the FED tried all the time. Totally failed management of the money supply and interest. Pushing the GDP at any cost, ignoring any inflation and indebtedness over years. How do You want to control this anymore?

Show me your billion dollars and I'll show you mine

Is a system based on credit a viable economy? Economy must be such that banks cannot control it.

You're missing the point. Martin is an incompetent fool and he's getting a beating 9 times out of 10 he talks to an expert. I think Jim felt it's pointless to argue with him. Note that Jeff took over 2/3 down the interview.

check your volume levels, dude.

We will experience DEFLATION for the time being, simply because banks are tightening their lending. People will go banktrupt, and cash rich persons will buy a chunk of America on the cheap. After this happens(deflation), those dollars are once again going to fall in value! What a mind ****! What a cycle of filth! This is what the FED does!!! Volatility!!! They don't let the market work!!! They control which way the market goes!! Bernanke's friends are making a killing year in year out!

Now the hot potato game has been suspended, and people don't know what to do, because it was completly unexpected (however some people like marc faber and jim rogers did expect it). The main problem is there are still many people who have some sort of savings, and no one knows where to put their money, because everything has turned into a bubble (stocks, bonds, housing). Commodities rally will not begin for some time, unless of course they go up in nominal terms do to printing...

The main reason why we are in this mess is because of the FED!! no because they are printing money, although that's a big problem, but because the FED causes too much volatility!!! These idiots think that by slowly debasing the dollar, velocity of money will increase, because holding the dollar has become a game of HOT POTATO! so people are scooping up anything and everything of real value (housing, durables,non durables), because everyone knows the dollar will continue to fall!

which is equivalent to a short dollar position. Deflationary environment makes a strong dollar, and all those people in debt are being screwed right now, because their debts increase in real terms. A prolonged deflationary environment will collapse the system, so the FED is in a tight stop of having to debase the currency slowly while at the same time trying to make sure to not cause the run on the dollar. However a run on the dollar while other countries are going banktrupt is years aways.

Oh my god. All Jim said was that the Depression was mainly caused because the FED contracted the money supply in a liquidity crisis. Jim's arguement for today is that we are not! in a liquidity crisis, but a credit crisis!!! If we were in a liquidity crisis, then the FED should help print money. However we are in a CREDIT!! CRISIS!!! and you can't punish savers by bailing out morons who made bad investment decisions! However most people are in debt...

Do you have a link to the CNBC video?

I'm surprised that Jim Rogers would make such a statement. It goes against what he's said about this mess we're going into. What is it that is so seductive of monetarism that otherwise logical people keep falling into the trap that wealth can be printed?
