Since my business was smashed in 2009 for 6 months, I have spent quite a lot of time trying to understand the beast that is the new world of economics and investment. My summary is this.
Keynesian spending, the economics of most governments of the modern world is totally flawed. The way the world ran for 300 years before Keynes came along was under a different model called Austrian economics. I am not an economist so I commend that you search for the following "Peter Schiff" to understand the fundamentals, "Franklin Sanders - Gold" to understand the charts, "Ed Steer - Gold" to get a handle on the latest behind the scene stories. If you want to make a difference in the USA, research Ron Paul, he has written a number of books on Austrian economics. Sorry to bang on about this but its as likely the world will be poorer into the future than richer and I dont want my friends to get their pockets pinched by over zealous governments interested in re-election.

Though I respect Ron Paul for consistently standing up for his beliefs, I think he is mistaken in his take on economic principals. Many who advocate for "old style" economics forget the price we paid for them at the beginning of the Great Depression. 24% unemployment in the US anyone?
