Fall of the Republic

Watched the whole thing, liked it a lot, that led me to this one, it's good too:

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGAaPjqdbgQ]YouTube - Reflections And Warnings - An Interview With Aaron Russo {Full Film}[/ame]

On that note, I just heard on the radio that the US and CAD dollars are even again, which sucks for me personally but many of my fellow canucks are loving it. I'm left scratching my head wondering if I should pull out all my USD currency now before it tanks even more or wait until/if it goes back up.
 


What assures me that America is finished is that the majority of people actually dismiss videos such as this as bogus. Majority of the information in Alex Jones' work is documented, provable, basic American history and just plain common sense. There is hardly any doubt left to any educated, thinking human being.

Hmm, fall of 2009 is almost over. That doesn't leave too many days left for the mass graves to start being used under martial law.

I think we will see some sort of high inflation in the next 2-3 years, not sure if it will be hyper-inflation African style but I think we will see the dollar be worth next to nothing on the global market. Best thing to do now is just offset 20-30% of your investments into euros, yen, gold, and silver.

Yep, you're right about that. I would start hedging against the dollar right now. Commodities are going to spike. Oil will shoot back up to record prices again here shortly. We are all going to witness the global fall of the greenback. It's only a matter of time before the USA loses its AAA rating and gets demoted as the global currency reserve.

What's Washing going to do when the Chinese stop buying Treasury Bills? It's pretty sad when even a communist country like China is giving financial pointers to Washington. Even the Chinese know it's only a matter of time before the greenback sinks because of Washington's reckless spending habits.

My advice, start stocking up on guns and ammo!
 
All you need to remember is that those at the top will do anything to stay there hence the bank bail out, destruction of dollar and countless other crazy decisions. Politicians, bankers, corporation heads are the same social class.

Just because we don't call them lords or other artistocratic terms doesn't mean we live in a fair system. Best bet is to get rich and not be at the bottom when the shit hits the fan.

The 'elites' see us just like the sheeple you guys fling acai at. Picture the media and politics as one big acai lander flog including the fake testimonials.

Like most people, you see inflation as a price phenomenon, not a monetary one. This is a misconception perpetuated by the mainstream press because while the FED can't lie about how much money it injects into the system, the BLS has a dozen ways to massage the CPI numbers.

Inflation is a monetary phenomenon. It happens when money is printed so rapidly that no one wants to hold cash, and so it becomes a game of hot potato, where people consume as much as they can, as fast as they can.

This leads to an absence of savings, capital for investment, and collapse of credit markets. The lack of capitalization causes mass unemployment, which causes civil unrest.

The way you can know when inflation (monetary) is occurring is if there is a boom in many sectors of the economy simultaneously. If housing is booming, and the stock market is booming, and auto sales are booming, and if travel is booming and so on, then there is a good chance, prices are rising, because consumption is increasing, BECAUSE the money supply is inflating.

So to quote PPI or the CPI is meaningless. No one who knows what is going on trusts those numbers.

As far as Mish, he's been wrong more than he has been right lately. He is very wrong about deflation.

"You're a bunch of weak, dumb people. Most of you are retarded." WTF he's going off on the people in this thread now?
 
these things are dumb, obv people are making money from tax money you dont need to make a 2 hours video about it.
 
Alex Jones can be a bitch sometimes...
I used to follow his blog,movies for >1,5 years - but he sold himself. His act with Charlie Sheen was just hilarious.
He´s simplifying and exaggerating facts.
Nonetheless - a lot of what he says has some truth to it.

Read Chomsky, watch Zeitgeist II,I ( http://bit.ly/2WCxNu ) even though Zeitgeist is based on theories more than facts - it might open your eyes.

Europe is days away from signing the treaty of Lissabon. Treaty of Lisbon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Around 500 mill. people will then be under the control of a new binding constitution - without ever being asked for.
A few countries voted against this treaty in 2007 - so they just didn´t ask those countries in the 2nd run.

Tony Blair has already offered his service to act as president of the European Council - interesting to say the least.

Well, if we're talking about hyperinflation, I'm thinking of the guy going to buy a loaf of bread with a wheelbarrow of cash. I'm not thinking of a carpenter having to pay 10% more or whatever for a hammer because of a housing boom. The infrastructure of the USA is much different than any nation that went through hyperinflation. It's ability to efficiently meet increased demands for goods and services helps prevent hyperinflation.

If you read my post closely, that is actually a disadvantage, because people will clear inventories faster than they would in say, Zimbabwe, where it is not so fast and convenient to convert cash into goods.

To get to the guy buying groceries with wheelbarrows, several conditions have to be established. Those conditions continue to be set. I said, it might take 10 years, it might take 20 years. The dollar might be replaced by something else quietly. But it is most likely to die in a blaze of glory, because that is how fiat currencies have always ended.

Remember what I wrote about the USSR. Everyone thinks they are special. Everyone thinks, "it cant happen to me".

The people who bank during a crisis know it can happen to anyone (George Soros/Jim Rogers, Quantum Fund). They are political atheists.

But then that is like IM. The people who bank know things, they don't believe things. They don't ignore data that contradicts their preconceived ideas.

When it comes to belief, be a seller not a buyer.
 
It doesn't matter if they fight. If the various sovereign wealth funds switch to another currency, IMF special drawing rights, or a basket of commodities, then there is nothing they can do. Poof. Hyperinflation.
