Time Will Fix 

Subba Rao 

“Time will fix, time will fix everything” Juggernaut was 

talking to himself rather loudly at his desk situated in a dark corner 

diagonally opposite to Dan's monster desk facing the large window. 

“Time will fix what?” inquired Dan standing next to his desk 

appears more like storage space with stockpiles of documents. 

“Time will fix everything.” 

“How? 

“Some diseases heal with time with no treatment at 

all.” “Grief, money and marital problems melt away with 

time.”  “Problems left alone are solved through natural process that 

takes time; like forest fires, floods, inflation, recovery of an 

endangered species, jobless rate etc.” “This is not just my 

observation, it is time tested phenomenon.” 

“So, this is your advice to Mr. Bernanke to solve our 

financial problems then?” Dan looked at Juggernaut for a response. 

“Yes, I would say to Chairman Bernanke to ignore all the 

economic indicators; sit tight and do nothing; those 15 million 

unemployed would get used to do nothing and live cheap; the housing 

market will stabilize over the next 5 to 6 years and that's how time 

will fix the economy.” 

“How about more serious chronic problems with Social Security, 

Medicare, Medicaid, foreign debt etc.,” said Dan spinning his left hand 

like a cricket bowler throwing  the ball using only fingers to get top 

spin to confuse the batsman at the crease. 

“Politicians on both side of the isle will do nothing to fix 

any of those problems; over a period of time, these programs die a 

natural death with lack of funding and nobody would be responsible 

then.” “Whether anybody noticed it or not, most countries in South 

America turned democratic from autocratic rule over the last 2 decades 

with no outside interference; only the time took care of it.” “Now the 

people in the Middle East were turning against their own rulers to free 

themselves.” “Middle class India fed up with political and bureaucratic 

malpractice galvanized around a humble old man to deal head-on with 

corruption; it took that long for time to do it.” 

“You may be right you know; time is like ocean of water or 

earth's stratosphere to absorb any problem; I am with you on this,” Dan 

looked at Juggernaut with condescending broad smile. 

Juggernaut with both hands clamping his head down and elbows 

well grounded on the desk went back to his thoughts milling out from 

his restless brain.
