This interview got me thinking about how close we are to collapse.

I was thinking that we are in the beginning of the deflationary phase with credit markets beginning to fail. But she raised an interesting point; if things start to fail central banks can move on and print more money.

Only when countries and corporations no longer can service near 0 interest rates this insanity will reach an end. Or if the money printing spills into the real economy, causing inflation (I can see this happening as a result of pension bail outs).

I think we are really far away from that point. That’s something that may last more than 20 years.
