The World Is In Trouble, To Protect Yourself You Need To Understand What Caused It First.



The outlook for 2016 is unfolding exactly as I said it would.  But I'm not psychic and I am also not a pedigreed expert in economics or geopolitics, at least I wasn't when I started down the rabbit-hole, I can assure of that right now.  I've been brash, provocative and arguably arrogant at times about what's in store, and I've always felt anyone who has taken the time to read up on what I have would arrive at the same conclusions.  My time and effort spent works to your advantage, if you go back and track what I've written about you can understand the process that lead me here for yourself, and for pity's sake please check out the recommended sites on the right hand side of this blog (either hover your mouse pointer over the receded tabs or click on them, depending on your OS, browser or device).  There is a treasure chest of top drawer knowledge available to anyone who is interested.  It is interest alone, not ability that stands in your way.  Look at the websites, follow them on Twitter, like them on Facebook and do it NOW.

The Wicked Witch Of The West.


THE SCANDALS: Let's get one thing straight, both Benghazi and the Hillary Emails Scandal are witch-hunts, but only because THERE IS A WITCH!
These political commentators, even the comedy guys on the left that I enjoy (and are actually usually quite insightful) have missed the boat here. These guys want leave Hillary alone over the scandals. Don't forget they are typically pro-Dem and are either contractually obliged by media bosses or duped into thinking there is a difference between corporate owners of DEM/GOP, they suggest its just political ammunition.  Well.., sure, but to suggest its time to leave Hillary alone.... NO! 
No No No. That's just NOT good enough. The truth is they don't mean harm, they just don't realize what they are saying. With the possible exception of bloodthirsty psychopath John McCain, Hillary is the absolute worst choice available on the planet. 



The New Year’s Eve release of over 3000 new Hillary Clinton emails from the State Department has CNN abuzz over gossipy text messages, the “who gets to ride with Hillary” selection process set up by her staff, and how a “cute” Hillary photo fared on Facebook. 
I have one thing to say: "Vomit!"
But historians of the 2011 NATO war in Libya will be sure to notice a few of the truly explosive confirmations contained in the new emails: admissions of rebel war crimes, special ops trainers inside Libya from nearly the start of protests, Al Qaeda embedded in the U.S. backed opposition, Western nations jockeying for access to Libyan oil, the nefarious origins of the absurd Viagra mass rape claim, and concern over Gaddafi’s gold and silver reserves threatening European currency.
Hillary’s Death Squads
A March 27, 2011 intelligence brief on Libya, sent by long time close adviser to the Clinton's and Hillary’s unofficial intelligence gatherer, Sidney Blumenthal, contains clear evidence of war crimes on the  part of NATO-backed rebels. Citing a rebel commander source “speaking in strict confidence” Blumenthal reports to Hillary [emphasis mine]:
Under attack from allied Air and Naval forces, the Libyan Army troops have begun to desert to the rebel side in increasing numbers. The rebels are making an effort to greet these troops as fellow Libyans, in an effort to encourage additional defections.
(Source Comment: Speaking in strict confidence, one rebel commander stated that his troops continue to summarily execute all foreign mercenaries captured in the fighting…). READ MORE HERE

Rand Paul tears Hillary a new one.


Eeeugh!

VOTE FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE A VAGINA!

Whatever else happens we should keep the idiot feminist vote out of an important decision involving Monetary policy, War and Foreign policy, IE the U.S. presidency.  It seems that they would rather use the opportunity to make it just another gender issue, an important issue in society for sure but clearly one that not come into this decision for THIS AWFUL WARMONGERING CANDIDATE.  All cannot be forgiven on account of aforementioned vagina belonging to her.

This is no theory, they have warned us that they will proudly use their vaginas to vote.  I urge you to resist this tempting easy way out and use your brain instead.

That is all!


Deliberate Anti Hillary Propaganda selected by me, the writer of this blog, because let's face it, some things are just impossible to resist.




Assad Did NOT Gas His Own People! US funded rebels did! The Ghouta Chemical Sarin Gas Attacks.


Propaganda is as easy as the photos you choose and the narratives you spin. Whoever owns the most media, wins.

Don't make it so easy for them. Be discerning.

Certainly, those who have previously caused 54 regime changes and coups, and destroyed whole nations, most recently Libya and Iraq, with Syria and Iran on the shopping list, those Nations DO NOT GET TO LECTURE OTHER NATIONS ON MORALS.

Turkish MP implicates Erdogan administration live on Russian television in sarin gas smuggling to Daesh
https://www.rt.com/news/326084-erdem-rt-interview-treason/

The above follows the recent scandal connecting NATO allies Turkey and the US to the ISIS Black Market Oil Trade certainly shold raise eyebrows. Regarding that trade, its non-pipeline tanker haul, protected by Kurdish Peshmerga forces parading as if fighting ISIS around Raqqa and Erbil, but the Kurds are US allies and therefore presumably ISIS allies.  I haven't worked it out yet. Erdogan seems unable to co-operate in any means with any Kurd's unless there are laws being broken, because he also brokers some of the oil via Israel, since he has no choice and they all need him, and word on the street is that the Russians are not happy about it. Money talks I guess.

THE US/ TURK FUNDED REBELS, NOT ASSAD DID THE GASSING ACCORDING TO THOSE THAT KNOW HOW TO READ THE TO THE OPCW REPORT.

Its worded to bear superficial resemblance to the claims but evidently there is no smoking gun, meaning the chemical weapons known to have been possessed and moved by the rebels should be regarded as the primary suspect.

Dont Be Surprised By Market Volatility, You Aint Seen Nothing Yet.



You have to give credit once again to Peter Schiff, like 1999 and 2007, things are starting to unfold in an eerily similar way to his predations, and most importantly, for the REASONS he predicts them.

I've been following his podcasts for years doubting the Feds allusions to raising interest rates and being correct about delay tactic. Also, casting cynical doubt about the Feds promises to end Quantititve Easing, which is also starting to appear on the cards.

It follows logically that he will, in the end, be right in the long run about precious metals...

I can think of no rationale based in reason not to heed his advice.

19) Economic Meltdown


InsideJob2010Poster.jpg

As far as I can see, all of the war and conflict in the world today (post original cold war and world wars) is as a result of Indoctrination or financial mismanagement or ambition. This is turn leads to political manipulation and a mad grab to sustain (an unsustainable) Orwellian political model driven, of course, by an unsustainable economic policy stemming from unregulated capitalism. 

What do I mean?  It's mostly in previous posts. With most westerners hazy on the boundaries separating capitalism, democracy, socialism and government regulation it tough to discuss one without invoking the other.

Unregulated financial services policies facilitated by a government that is happy to regulate other aspects of public life created a financial crises of unprecedented criminality in 2008.  Most of the criminals remain unprosecuted today and no real investigation has transpired to expose more than a few fall-guys.

INSIDE JOB http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_Job_(2010_film)  won the Academy Award in 2010 for best picture in the documentary category and should be compulsory viewing for every potential college graduate currently studying at Harvard or any other institution teaching the benefits of unregulated financial services practices.


Meanwhile the University of Western Sydney has in my opinion one of the most interesting economists around http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Keen In Professor Steve Keen, check out some of his stuff on YouTube.




HERE ARE THE HORRIFFIC FACTS:


The numbers that you are about to see are likely to shock you.  They prove that the global financial Ponzi scheme is far more extensive than most people would ever dare to imagine.

When Americans think about the financial crisis that we are facing, the largest number that they usually can think of is the size of the U.S. national debt.  And at over 17 trillion dollars, it truly is massive.  But it is actually the 2nd-smallest number on the list below.  The following are 12 numbers about the global financial Ponzi scheme that should be burned into your brain…


  • ·         -$1,280,000,000,000 - Most people are really surprised when they hear this number.  Right now, there is only 1.28 trillion dollars’ worth of U.S. currency floating around out there.
  • ·         -$17,555,165,805,212.27 - This is the size of the U.S. national debt.  It has grown by more than 10 trillion dollars over the past ten years.
  • ·         -$32,000,000,000,000 - This is the total amount of money that the global elite have stashed in offshore banks (that we know about).
  • ·         -$48,611,684,000,000 - This is the total exposure that Goldman Sachs has to derivatives contracts.
  • ·         -$59,398,590,000,000 - This is the total amount of debt (government, corporate, consumer, etc.) in the U.S. financial system.  40 years ago, this number was just a little bit above 2 trillion dollars.
  • ·         -$70,088,625,000,000 - This is the total exposure that JPMorgan Chase has to derivatives contracts.
  • ·         -$71,830,000,000,000 - This is the approximate size of the GDP of the entire world.
  • ·         -$75,000,000,000,000 - This is approximately the total exposure that German banking giant Deutsche Bank has to derivatives contracts.
  • ·         -$100,000,000,000,000 - This is the total amount of government debt in the entire world.  This amount has grown by $30 trillion just since mid-2007.
  • ·         -$223,300,000,000,000 - This is the approximate size of the total amount of debt in the entire world.
  • ·         -$236,637,271,000,000 - According to the U.S. government, this is the total exposure that the top 25 banks in the United States have to derivatives contracts.  But those banks only have total assets of about 9.4 trillion dollars combined.  In other words, the exposure of our largest banks to derivatives outweighs their total assets by a ratio of about 25 to 1.
  • ·         -$710,000,000,000,000 to $1,500,000,000,000,000 - The estimates of the total notional value of all global derivatives contracts generally fall within this range.  At the high end of the range, the ratio of derivatives exposure to global GDP is about 21 to 1.

Most people tend to assume that the “authorities” have fixed whatever caused the financial world to almost end back in 2008, but that is not the case at all.
In fact, the total amount of government debt around the globe has grown by about 40 percent since then, and the “too big to fail banks” have collectively gotten 37 percent larger since then.
 Our “authorities” didn’t fix anything.  All they did was reinflate the bubble and kick the can down the road for a little while.
I don’t know how anyone can take an honest look at the numbers and not come to the conclusion that this is completely and totally unsustainable.

How much debt can the global financial system take before it utterly collapses?

How recklessly can the big banks behave before the house of cards that they have constructed implodes underneath them?

For the moment, everything seems fine.  Stock markets around the world have been setting record highs and credit is flowing like wine.

But at some point a day of reckoning is coming, and when it arrives it is going to be the most painful financial crisis the world has ever seen.

If you plan on getting ready before it strikes, now is the time to do so.
