Quote of the moment

It would be irresponsible in the extreme for an individual to forestall a personal recession by taking out newer, bigger loans when the old loans can't be repaid. However, this is precisely what we are planning on a national level.
Peter Schiff, Wall Street Journal


Hat tip to the ASI.

But that's exactly what so many people did during the boom years.

Remember "consolidation loans"?
