    I listened to this interview while I was driving yesterday and I was fascinated. The Phillip Coggin interview was a concise overview of the effect of debt on a global scale and why all the solutions are fraught with risk. It does seem like the ones that will be hurt the most, in every scenario, will be the prudent savers.
