TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Fear mongering or is it as bad as it looks?

I'd say it's a normal response to a weirdly abnormal situation: Record-high stock market paired with constant threats of austerity.  Something's got to give, and the zillionaires are managing their risk.

Gold crashed in the last couple of days as well.  Last time gold crashed, the market followed.  Correlation does not equal causation and all that, but....China reported disappointing economic data as well, and of course the Chinese and American economies are strongly interrlinked.

And this business of printing money...Accurate or more horseshit.  I mean, who actually prints more money?  I thought that's what computers are for.

"Printing money" is shorthand for some sort of financial fappery, I think.  Although, it could also literally be firing up the printing presses.

I believe what actually happens is the central bank says "we've printed more money", adds them in digitally and then transfers the digital money out to the banks.

I'd have to double check, but I'm fairly sure I'm right on this.

That's pretty much the long and short of "Quantitive Easing" in the UK. Cash is constantly being printed and removed as well. If I remember correctly the average banknote only makes it through 10 or so transactions before it's FUBAR and burnt. Hence the constant supply of crisp fresh notes from cash machines too.
Nine naked Men just walking down the road will cause a heap of trouble for all concerned.
