The U.S. economy implodes, hyperinflation for the U.S. (seeing as we import so many things). JIT delivery interrupted. Riots ensue, (hence the DHS order of 450 million rounds of hollow point bullets, they know what's coming). The world is in disorder until monetary matters settle down.<br /><br />Meanwhile, the Rothschilds et all, in their never-let-a-crisis-go-to-waste way, will offer a "new" world monetary perhaps designed something along the lines of what I layed out in my first post. This will be as big a sea change as the introduction of the Fed in 1913. And yes, it will have been in the works for years --- behind the scenes, just as the Jeryll Island meeting was three years before 1913.<br /><br />Dave, No one will come to your door to "get" your gold. During the initial anarchy there will likely be DHS checkpoints on the highway though (not expressly searching for Gold though). Later, after a new monetary system, to survive in the new Divorced currencies system, you'll find Gold to be whatever the PTB allow it to be. Perhaps Gold will appreciate wildly and Gold holders make out big time after all (like fofoa thinks). In that case Dave you'll be a hero to your readers and no doublt, on easy street yourself.<br /><br />Or perhaps, the PTB being the evil,controlling types that they are ... stuff the Gold Bugs with sanctions and stymie their attempts to convert Gold into transactional currency.<br /><br />The reason I submit this to you and your readers is to elicit thoughts on the matter. Regardless of whatever happens, those who position themselves in the most advantages manner will come out the best (or perhaps least worse is a better way to put it).<br /><br />And once again folks, think of the anarchy that will ensue for a year or whatever when the world shifts to a new reserve currency. Guns,Gold and beans might be a too simplistic strategy. Right now we still have time to alter our portfolios and holdings and overall positioning. When the music stops it could get very wild & woolie and we all might find ourselves irrevocably locked into our positions ... for better or worse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-41021195833550189242012-05-04T12:18:09.741-06:002012-05-04T12:18:09.741-06:00John Randi:

Reg Middleton and ZeroHedge) where the rate of approved long term disabilities for state and federal programs is up 22% in 3 years. 7 million bodies (I recall) have been moved from the un-employment teat to the "disability teat." Insidious, in that the govt. grows in power by making dependents. Dependents do not vote against their income source. <br /><br />So the available workforce drops, which allows the percent of "unemployed" to appear as a lower percentage of the toatl "looking for work.<br /><br />As to the Fed, I think Romney emerged as a leader after he took the lightest, easiest position on the Fed during/after the famous "I'd fire bernanke" debate. It was then that the street scrambled to find a buffoon fat and dumb enough to leave the fed at status quo... but Fat Christie declined. It was that debate that resulted in a quick culling of most candidates who threatened the Fed.<br /><br />Things won't change materially under Romney. Our hopes that Obama would "change" the banks was dashed as soon as he installed the clinton banking elite in key positions and then expanded the circle-jerk with JPM VPs, Warren, and Jeff Immelt.<br /><br />Until voters make ending the Fed, the central focus of any campaign and find a patriot with enuf balls to complete the task, none of our wealth is safe.<br /><br />Slavery is the institution that allows a master (class) to steal labor, wealth, capital and the right every man has to safe guard his production, savings and livelihood.<br /><br />We are slaves until we are safe from the master class. The Fed is the whip that enforces the new world order of slavery.johnrandinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-46296572365177025152012-05-04T11:11:29.055-06:002012-05-04T11:11:29.055-06:00So what if our circling the drain precipitates the...So what if our circling the drain precipitates the long forecasted "reset" of the world monetary system by the PTB?<br /><br />I'll assume Dave, that you're familiar with FOFOA and his freegold ideas, however there's another blogger (TradewithDave) who has melded that with the the practicalities of the implementation. Actually, TradewithDave doesn't make himself very clear, the jist of it is that he's apparently now calling that there's a plan by the PTB of the divorcing of transactional and wealth components of money.<br />Transactional 'money' to be electronic and Gold being the store of value used by Governments and perhaps major trading.<br /><br />Dave, have you noticed the increased media coverage of Gold Standard lately? To my eye there's been a surge in coverage in places that formerly ignored Gold.<br /><br />What I'm getting at in all of this is that I'm wondering what happens if the powers that be do an endrun around individual Gold holders and make Gold the exclusive realm of Governments, and with personal "money" now be electronic and completely trackable .....essentially freezing out individuals from converting physical to transactional money for actual use without the Gov permission, and/or swooping in and taking 90% or something ridiculous in taxes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-78081758626319323232012-05-04T10:46:26.322-06:002012-05-04T10:46:26.322-06:00add in part time workers for econ reasons increase...add in part time workers for econ reasons increased by abt 180k--not sure where to place that in the scheme of things but it does cut back on any aspect of optimism in the entire reportHalnoreply@blogger.com
