Faber's analysis, which predates the 2008-9 collapse, is perhaps the single-most critical serious study of the Greenspan-Bernanke monetary polices and the universal bubbles they created. Faber actually referred to Bernanke as a "financial criminal" and a destroyer of currencies in a recent radio interview. I recommend you listen to Faber's hour-long lecture on global macroeconomics in Slovenia to get a sense of why Faber insists the US will not again be able to raise interest rates - debt to GDP ratio is just too high. He is hardly advocating the policy but extrapolating the scenarios the Fed (and other central banks) face. I fail to see how Faber (and Rogers), who claim the Fed is monetizing the debt, is a shill for them when they insist that is not what they are doing. I suppose the snide aside regarding Faber's personal life points to the author's modus operandi. As for Greenspan, a better tag for his recent warnings is chutzpah.
