Generational Dynamics Forum - New Site

People will not cease to have hobbies, to experiment, to enjoy new experiences, and to make meaning of their lives just because they no longer have to "work" to put food on their plates. Really how is it any different than those in comfortable retirement right now. Some of them are happy, some are n...

Gordo, Great discussion. What I am concerned with is what happens “in between” this crisis event or era and where we end up and just how bad does it get in between? I also agree with you that our attitude in how we look at things has more to do with our destiny than anything. I grew up, went to coll...

Hi Gordon, I ejoyed and agreed with a lot of your post. A couple things that cropped up in my mind as I was reading though: "Today we are more productive than humans have ever been in all human history. I laugh when I hear idiots lamenting the loss of manufacturing or farming jobs - this is a wonder...

I'm glad you like the site. I would hate to see what you'd write if you didn't like the site. Would I be correct in assuming that you're a Generation-Xer?"

Take Care, MOS

The key element of the Ghilarducci proposal is that it amounts to compelling workers to make forced loans to the government. The Treasury would receive cash up...

Dear Matt, Thank you for your reply. I enjoy coming to this site becuase John and others (like yourself) are willing to look at things without "speaking to your holdings" or so it appears. I've experienced rath, hostility, been called an idiot and told I am clueless when asked 2 simple explanations ...

I have mentioned that I was extremely grateful to find this site. First, I learned to question my thinking which I was exceeding lazy in assuming gold would rise since inflation was a "no-brainer" This kind of thinking caused me to over allocate my portfolio to gold holdings. In any event (deflation...

I thought I would post this as I consider Eric Janszen to have a decent grasp of monetary policy. What I don't hear these people saying though is that inflation is an increase on the monetary aggregates with an expansionary business climate...We have neither today. Please comment and critique. The t...
