It is not surprising, therefore, that the scribes and pundits employed by the bubble infrastructure cannot see beyond it; that CNBC can find an endless supply of fund managers who are buying the dips and following the Fed’s promise to keep interest rates lower longer and stock prices rising higher forever; that a corrupt financial market in which all interest rates are pegged and rigged by the Fed is taken for granted as the natural order of economics; that government borrowing to stimulate and support the economy is viewed as essential regardless of its baleful future consequences; that arbitrary central banking targets like 2% inflation as an instrument of optimum GDP growth or the bogeyman of “deflation” are embraced uncritically as axiomatic; or that economic absurdities such as zero money market interest rates for seven years running are rarely even noted.

In short, the vast infrastructure of bubble finance bends, shapes and curates the daily narrative so thoroughly that the denizens on the stage set do not even notice its vast artificiality. Its just one day at a time, and one more fix by the monetary and fiscal authorities to keep the bubble inflating, or at least stable.
