False confidence

It's really just a case of who sucks worse...at this very moment, and the opportunity to make a quick buck by those who can afford to throw the amounts of cash at it to get a return.

All of this fresh bravado will either fade, or more probable, crash.

Just the same as Greece, Portugal and whomever else is busy scrambling to cut costs and rein in the fat from gummint pensions and "services," which is just code for theft and graft, it's all coming 'round to here, eventually.

Can't wait.
