Death Knells for the USDollar

Hat Trick Letter
Yes, i was vulgar; purposefully so in fact. There are times when the word fuck has a legitimate use and like it or not, that was one of them. Tom's comment deserved nothing less in that it was pure hatred with no redeeming value whatsoever. If he does not like what Jim had to say, he should have stated his reasons for his belief, not leave some puke remark that does nothing to further any conversation. As such the little twerp deserved nothing better from me.
You are mistaken to believe that i am defending Jim. i no more agree with most of what he has to say than you. What i was attempting to defend was the comment policy, as a careful read of my comment should have shown. Heck, you should have come away with that understanding without having to read my comment carefully. Personal attacks have no place here. We are attempting to deal with ideas and opinions (or we should be) and the way to do that should we disagree is to state our reasons for disagreeing. Tom's comment did no such thing and so was out of line. And while it may appeal to those who seem to have nothing but enmity for Jim, it has no place here. None. Zero. If Tom's comment is not removed, then what we are headed for here is a comment section that resembles what can be found from the "geniuses" over at Prison Planet. If that is what you favor, then so be it. But i am not with that shit.
As for why the powers that be did not remove my comment, i can only imagine that they saw it for what it was; a defence of their comment policy and like me, they would like to see Tom keep things on topic and refrain from straight-up personal attacks.
If folks are sick and tired of Jim's comments, they are not obligated to read them. i often skip over his contributions, believing i know what he has written without having to read it. That being said, he has as much of a right as you or i to comment and the mere fact that we may disagree with what he has to say, regardless of how often he may repeat the same old same old, should in no way impinge upon his right to express his view. Tom's comment did not deal with what Jim had to say. It was a cowardly personal attack; nothing more and nothing less. It is the sort of crap one might hear coming from the mouth of a grade school bully. If that is what you wish to defend because you have no use for Jim, then so be it. But know this, were someone to attack you in the same sort of manner that Tom went after Jim, i would take that person to task for the very same reason. It is what decency and civility require of us. Should we not stand up for such virtues, then the level of discourse will sink even further. The desire to silence voices we disagree with never leads to a good place.
So yes, once again: Tom, fucking grow up!

Beginning of the headline :
The recent decision by the US Federal Reserve to contaminate the financial body until it responds favorably was the last straw in my book.Witness a declaration of permanent QE and hyper monetary inflation of the most virulent strain, unsterilized.The USFed is essentially admitting failure...
