I think the rise of the dollar although a sexy thing for us to watch and be proud of, it's acually a worrying sign of a problem, because given the current picture it's no more than a figurehead of an undercurrent american slide to deflation;

The difference between life and death is a beating heart, and in a capitalist system this heart is banks and businesses, which was a no brainer for pragmatic Obama when he saved them in his is first years, the problem is that that was a different happy movie about an emergency scare five years ago.

Here's the catch22: Mr Mohamed would have been right about the pure virtue and miracle of this dollar prowess, if it was in a world were the American public has enough money to create demand that would have constituted a fundamental economic strength, and by extension a world public that is buying American goods, then the dollar rises in spite of all that! not the case;

in fact the revaluation of the dollar was quite predictable, with the Fed cutting the easing, repeated fiscal spending cuts, stagnant wages. and tax cuts.

With corporate profits hitting historic highs, (even though mostly thanks to mother monetary buble) I don't anderstanding why smart people like Mohamed still insist the solution is to make it even easier for bussiness and international trade to feel even better!

This leads me finally to the puzzling win of the republicans this midterms, the fact that all time high profits didn't trickle down, more over, the fact that previous eras with much less profits witnessed an across the board prosperity should have been a fatal exposure to republicans ..
