[QUOTE="CaryP, post: 7371, member: 34"] [b]Money, Banking and the Fed[/b] Most of Europe is going throw social unrest, most notably Germany and France, because of the govt.'s efforts to reduce retiree pensions there. I haven't kept up with all the details and where developments are currently, but a reduction of benefits is a necessity. The aging of the West and Japan will cripple our economies over the next 20 years and more. Some countries, Japan and China especially, are aging rapidly.
