    They are hardly really dips though, we are just kicking about 0%, calling them dips in the traditional sense is pushing it.

        Economic output still 3% lower than 2008 - thats one of the worst performances in the world.

        And a good chance of flat lining for next 5 years.

              There will be a 10th dip. Because the entire economy is bumping around on zero growth as our wages slowly drop to chinese levels.

                Increasing interest rates will kill us even further wont it.

                I don't understand how people aren't seriously worried about the amount of debt we are taking on at 1 - 1.5% ..

                    It will kill bad investments and free up resources for good (productive) investments.
