I understand that many are feeling the shock of the current financial panic, but I expect that saving and spending patterns will go back to pre-recession levels once we are out of the current economic morass. I certainly hope people will be wiser and that they learn to better manage their finances.

Consequently, there is no way that all of the world's governments combined, who themselves borrow so-called "money" from other central-bank smoke and mirror deceptions, can solve this debacle, by using more smoke and mirrors money scams.
