PRINT...PRINT...PRINT...PRINT...PRINT...PRINT...
Here…we…go!
Very close to the top 100 in free Kindle Store!
Keep spreading the word folks.
Facebook it. Tweet it. Tumble it. Flexon Vale: A Whimsical Tour of Modern America is free until Monday night!
(At some point, I hope Amazon will update it as a fictional satire/men’s adventure, and not a non-fiction finance novel. Sigh.)
Easy as QE, 1...2...3...
After about 24 hours on the free side of the Kindle store Flexon Vale: A Whimsical Tour of Modern America is #2,677.
I don’t know why Amazon had it classified as a non-fiction finance novel. Flexon Vale is a fictional satire/men’s adventure novel, and it should reflect that shortly on Amazon.com. My apologies for any confusion.
Anyway, feel free to let anyone you know who would be interested in a satire centered on business/finance and big university culture about it. The short novel will be free until Monday.
How about it folks? Let’s get this little guy into the top 100 free in Kindle Store.
It’s as easy as QE, 1…2…3…

DON’T WORRY WE’LL PRINT MORE . . .
In celebration of QE3 (and higher gas and food prices that will surely follow), I’m offering my economic satire, Flexon Vale, for FREE from September 15 – September 17 on the Kindle.
I’m doing my part to lower inflation. Because as Americans have learned for the last ten years, NO ONE EATS OR FUELS THEIR HOME OR VEHICLE, SO THEREFORE, INFLATION HAS BEEN LESS THAN 1% FOR TEN YEARS NOW. Anyway, back to reality (or fantasy), in Flexon Vale I hope to have provided some color on where we’ve been and where we’re going. Anyone who went to a big state university will find this book hysterical. Anyone who has studied history, and who believes we are repeating the poor decisions of our ancestors, will find this book incredibly interesting.
So give it a shot. It’s FREE, on Kindle, for a limited time only. And remember, don’t worry about anything, because they’ll print more.

Rant of the Day
DON’T WORRY WE’LL PRINT MORE…
Now the Fed will print $1.2 trillion over the next year, which incidentally matches the annual Federal deficit. And the Fed has left the easing open-ended. (Yay!!)
In my opinion, the Fed’s announcement today assures two things:
1. Obama gets re-elected.
2. The crash is going to be epic.
You heard it here first.
The Fed is about to increase its balance sheet to $4 trillion from $2.8 trillion currently by the end of 2013. (Recall that in “Flexon Vale” I suggested the Fed’s balance sheet would eventually rise to $6 trillion before a major inflation struck in the late 2010s.) Mortgage rates will probably drop by another percent or so. It might lead to a few more refinancings but by and large, Americans are not not buying homes because of interest rates being too high. They’re not buying because they don’t have jobs. And QE to the nth power isn’t going to change that, unfortunately.
But you know what would?
How about a trillion dollar stimulus designed to transform our infrastructure from gasoline to compressed natural gas? How about we stop spewing THE WORST toxic fumes from our cars in the US while keeping an extra $300 billion in-country (from not importing oil) and create untold millions of jobs at home? Why not? I’ll tell you why we’re not going to do it. Because the oil companies have too much influence and Americans aren’t paying attention. But I know when they’re going to pay attention. When the prices of most goods—food, clothing, beer, housing, gas, everything—skyrockets and we’ll all look at each other and say, “No one, NO ONE, could have ever, EVER, seen this coming,” as the Fed announces it will fix the problem by printing even more.
