Big Brother is watching everything that you do on the Internet and listening to everything that you say on your phone.  Every single day in America, the U.S. government intercepts and stores nearly 2 billion emails, phone calls and other forms of electronic communication.  Former NSA employees have come forward and have described exactly what is taking place, and this surveillance activity has been reported on by prominent news organizations [...]

What Would War Between Israel And Syria Do To The Already Fragile Global Economy?

by Michael

War is a horrible thing.  Just ask anyone that has ever been in the middle of it.  And in this day and age governments around the world possess weapons of such incalculable power that war should be unthinkable.  In future wars, we could literally see millions of people killed on a single day.  Nobody should want that or look forward to that.  Unfortunately, the next major regional war in [...]

By Michael

The next Great Depression is already happening – it just hasn’t reached the United States yet.  Things in Europe just continue to get worse and worse, and yet most people in the United States still don’t get it.  All the time I have people ask me when the “economic collapse” is going to happen.  Well, for ages I have been warning that the next major wave of the ongoing [...]

The Fed Has Averted A Recession For Now

zentrader.ca 

We had a fairly decent monthly employment print this Friday which followed some decent ISM numbers.  Based on these survey’s, an argument can be made that the FED has averted (at least prolonged) a near certain recession.  Not everybody is convinced, I know I’m not.  Aushtan from ECRI is sticking to his call (see “What I’m watching section”) too.  I guess the FED doesn’t think so either; otherwise rates wouldn’t [...]

Massive storm pummelling Middle East good news for Israeli water system, not so much for Syrian refugees

Good News for Israel, Bad News for Syrian Refugees in Jordan

Weather in the Middle East is usually not very interesting. In the summer, it’s hot, and in the winter it’s cool. Sometimes it rains.

More Than 2000 Children Are Murdered In The United States Every Single Day. Mass Murderer Adam Lanza Is Yet Another Example Of How Society Is Collapsing Right In Front Of Our Eyes.

by Michael

Mass murderer Adam Lanza is yet another example of how society is collapsing right in front of our eyes.  When I was young, I never imagined that someone would come into my school and try to kill me.  But now any school that does not have armed security is being incredibly foolish.  The mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut on Friday was the second worst school [...]

Somebody Should Start The ‘Stuff Costs Too Much’ Party

By Michael

Stuff costs too much.  Seriously.  Every time I go to the grocery store these days, I am absolutely horrified by the prices.  I try not to buy anything that is not on sale, but the problem is that I am discovering that the new sale prices are the old regular prices.  So now paying what used to be “full price” is supposedly a “good deal”.  The other way that [...]

‘Iran ready to deter enemy’s provocations’

2012 alone, President Obama and Congress plan to spend $3.79 trillion. That is $10.4 billion a day that we have to live on, and we borrow more than $4 billion of that each day just to stay afloat (40%)

Excerpt from Casey Research

:

A trillion seconds was… just short of 32,000 years ago!

That’s back in the day when man wasn’t even known as MAN… we were homo sapiens, Neanderthals, to be exact!

 

The second from the right… Homo neanderthalensis.

I don’t know about you, but that certainly helps put it into perspective for me.

32,000 years ago, a trillion seconds, was a very, very long time ago.

And, if you earned a million dollars every single day of your [...]

Mainstream Media Blacks Out CHICK-FIL-A Story?

Wednesday was Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, and Americans flocked to the fast food restaurant in response to criticism of COO Dan Cathy’s opposition to same-sex marriage (as well as threats from the mayors of some major cities). The photos of long lines and traffic jams reveal the extent of the restaurant’s support–for some it’s about traditional values and for others it’s about freedom of religious exercise and speech in the face of government intimidation. There are [...]

CRISIS IN US: 100 Million Poor People In America And 39 Other Facts About Poverty That Will Blow Your Mind

by Michael

 

Every single day more Americans fall into poverty.  This should deeply alarm you no matter what political party you belong to and no matter what your personal economic philosophy is.  Right now, approximately 100 million Americans are either “poor” or “near poor”.  For a lot of people “poverty” can be a nebulous concept, so let’s define it.  The poverty level as defined by the federal government in 2010 was [...]

What In The World Is Wrong With American Kids?

by Michael

 

What in the world has happened to the children of America?  All over the United States kids are acting like half-crazed monsters, but most people seem to think that this is “normal”.  American kids today are selfish, self-centered, sadistic, cruel, disrespectful, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, boastful, unforgiving, incredibly brutal and they possess very little self-control whatsoever.  They feel entitled to everything, but they don’t want to work for any of [...]

HSBC — “Money Laundering, Drug Trafficking And Terrorist Financing”

Just because there is already an overflow of confidence in the financial system, here comes the Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee On Investigations with a 340 page report detailing how HSBC “exposed the U.S. financial system to a wide array of money laundering, drug trafficking, and terrorist financing risks due to poor anti-money laundering (AML) controls.” Of course, since HSBC is one of the world’s largest banks, what it did was not [...]

Buy Dips in Gold

Last week saw another stomach-churning volatile market for gold.

This has many gold investors not only scratching their heads, but throwing in the golden towel entirely.

And who can blame them?

Gold trading has been as erratic and unpredictable as Kim Kardashian’s love life.

On Friday, June 29th, the yellow metal opened at $1,551… and closed the day at $1,604. It was one of the biggest single-day moves in gold history.

Yet this past Friday, [...]

Swiss 2Y Rates Plunge To -43bps As All Trust Is Lost

The German 2Y also has cracked to record low interest rates at -5.2bps.

Many people hype “the coming economic collapse” as if it is some kind of big summer Hollywood blockbuster.  Many people out there write about it as if it is something that will happen in a single day or over a few weeks and that it will suddenly change how the entire world functions.  But that is not how the financial world works.  The financial world is like a game [...]
