While it will be painful it will be best to let the market clean up this mess. Those who made bad choices/decisions should shoulder the cost.....not the tax payer.

The end result is real money has been ripped out of the system. Therefore interest rates will rise. Preservation of capital is now the name of the game. The hyper inflation that some are looking for can only come after the destruction of money and credit. Interestingly, Gold has yet to recover from its pre Bear Stearns levels.

The Fed is so busy eating our seed corn in support of the insolvent MBS market that the cupboard may be bare when the real economy needs it most.
