		<description><![CDATA[Kyle Bass (click here for my blog posts where I mention Kyle) gives Japan just 18 months to live, in this interview in the Nikkei: 日本国債バブル「18カ月以内に崩壊する」米サブプライム危機を予見した男、「日本売り」公言 via 日本国債バブル「18カ月以内に崩壊する」　　：日本経済新聞. His final words of advice: don&#8217;t trust the State; think for yourself: 　「世の中で正しいと思われていることを、そのまま受け入れないということです。自分の力で考えて、常に論理的であろうとすること。我々はこれまで、中央銀行の バンカーたちが提示する世界観を受け入れるよう求められてきました。まるで彼らだけが真実の箱の中身が何かを知っているかのように。その彼らは今、無制限 にお金を刷り、経済の安定を何とか保とうと躍起になっています。しかし、この経済政策に限界が来ているのは明らかです。もはや、国家を信用することはでき ません。自らの力で考え、生き残っていかなければならない時代が来ているのです」]]></description>
