So, just as pretty much everyone in the sound money community predicted, tapering
will end sooner rather than later when a panicked Fed announces some kind of
bigger and better shock-and-awe debt monetization plan. The European Central

can get away with, since their government debt is, as a percentage of GDP,
already twice that of the US.
