So what is it going to take to get a third party into the public’s minds??? Currently, approxmiately 52% of Americans do not find favor with either party. When is the rallying around an independent party going to occur? Shouldn’t these 52% desire to be independent of the current political whoremongering?

Good question, I’ve been wondering about this one too for a while. They have everything they need in the east to tell off the west. Iran’s oil, China’s man power (India too), and Russia’s military. With all the Gold they have been buying up these past few years it almost seems like they are planning to just drop the dollar.

May 12, 2014 Anonymous
Where would they dump their dollars? In the polluted sea? Seems more likely they take advantage of the extraordinary, and illegal, US govt efforts to prop up the dollar. Spending their dollars on anything of real value, such as the previous contents of Fort Knox is smarter than dumping. When down to their last trillion US dollars, maybe they will just dump them.

America is out of control. Putin realises just like the Native Americans throughout the 19th Century that treaties and promises made by Washington DC are not worth the paper they are written on. The only hope is for independent media to get its message out and ordinary decent American citizens to rise up and call these neocons and the likes of Soros to account ! Dr Paul Craig Roberts should get the Congressional Medal of Honor for being the true patriot he is !

Bit coin and other ditigal currencies are the early beginnings of a new global reserve currency which will mainly be available to merchants and nations that trade in different currencies but need a facility that can do that without any kind of physical trade or holding. In other words international trading will occur via a bit coin type facility but each country will retain and use internally its own currency. The questions unanswered are what is the benchmark for this global currency? Gold or something more ephemeral like GDP ( I expect this to pave the way for global taxes.). Also Who will control this currency…given the US program to ensure all countries have a central bank obviously it plans on being the master manipulator. This will enable the US to resolve the current loss of faith in the US dollar as the reserve currency and avoid the situation that Britain found itself in after WW2 where it lost out as the underwriter of global finance at Bretton Woods.

That’s funny I met an Austrian years ago who told me all about this stuff, didn’t think much about it at the time though (as i was asleep back then) but he knew what was going on

To bad Russia already knows the plans of the elite and have weapons systems already set up to destroy places like Vatican City, Rothschild and Royal castles across Europe and other satanic centers – goodbye 3 city states
regardless if they were hit by a nuclear first strike these places among others would be radioactive dust

each side has thousands of empty decoy missiles to fire off and people actually believe live missiles wouldn’t get through anyway not to mention mobile nukes stored off shore

the elites have just as much to lose if not more, there are no winners in a nuclear war

not to mention Putin’s activation fund worth tens of millions (in diamonds, gold, platinum etc at who knows how many sites by now) should he be assassinated or Russia attacked on home soil (contracts put out on all top elites, you think they want to be hiding out worrying about killers collecting bounties on them for the rest of their lives

the Chinese are not going to accept nuclear fallout on their border either

there are factions within the new world order who have more to lose than others it will be interesting at least to see who gets their way

years ago the smarter elites wanted to bring in the new world order of enslavement minus Russia (leave them alone until later when they would use more advanced weapons systems to take them out) who they could isolate and then later have the world (their world government) attack Russia together
Georgia and now Ukraine were big mistakes attacking right on Russia’s border – they have overplayed their hand and will be their undoing hopefully not all of ours to

This article is clear and simple. A child could read it and understand that all of it TRUE!
We should all be fearing the blatant hypocrisy of the U.S. government.
I write from Western Europe where the media is a little bit more informative than in the U.S. (but not very much). Still I speak for many when I say that we do not understand what president Obama is up to anymore. America is our historical ally, and i love America.
Still I am sure that today if you asked all the people in the west of Europe (America’s most faithful allies) who do they trust the most between Obama and Putin, I am sure that Putin would come well ahead.
Putin himself said that Europe should start in Portugal and end in Vladivostock! We have a common history and our cultures blend in perfectly. We have problems with immigrants from, let’s face it, Muslim countries. Not, with Eastern Europeans and Russians!
I plead Americans to put an end to re-creating the Cold War once again. We do not want it. I do not perceive Russia as the enemy but as an friend. I do not want another unnecessary war in Europe for the sake of distracting americans from their failing economy!

Notices, notices…I get notices; in the mail, by Email and on the Mt. Gox exchange website. Thank you Mr. Celente for allowing my gripes.
My thought is that Mr. Karpeles has fulfilled a childhood vision (possibly even life long obsession) to set himself up as “Warlord of the World” by training himself as an expat. in Japan, now in possession of Millions of OUR dollars. With the current crises in finance and government around the world, why are we not hearing anything about Mr. Karpeles and his Banking associates in Japan? This reeks of social and political theater with a garnish of quasi-military quasi-criminal ( a la Yakuza ) intimidation. Not palatable and totally unacceptable given the “communicative” non-communication from Mt. Gox.

My strategy? Look up Chapter 15 and the Bankruptcy Laws of Japan and follow the instructions on the box. Not very promising.

Well, how can America be a better nation when our leadership is so bereft of any moral or fiduciary fiber ?? We have allowed our leadership to get away with every crime on the books and found no time in our lives to call these people to justice. The ire of the American people may be slow to rise, but given its approbation it will became a terrible unwinding of this society. Think downtown Beirut, with drug lords and MS-13 gangs running the streets. After all, we can not turn back those poor starving kids from central America can we ??

An acquaintance who has shown at the Whitney says that the art market is driven by super rich collectors who sponsor a given artist. The critics are receptive to pressure from these ultra-high-net-worth backers and galleries who are interlocked with the super rich investors. Hence, the art market is one dominated by insiders who manufacture buzz about a given artist, thus reaping substantial returns on their initial investment.

Esso changed its name to Exxon in 1973. In its early days the firm was called Standard Oil. Standard had little in common with Burisma Holding. For one thing, Rockefeller and his partners’ chief aim was to consolidate a fragmented industry. For another, they didn’t appoint privileged private equity managers to their board.

America can survive a president like Barry. The question is will it survive the kind of people who allowed him to take the position?

The answer to that is “No”. The Idunnos and Idontcares are still the dominant trend.

However, I think the BIG MOVES the ruling elite are about to make will awaken a sleeping giant; that there are enough people with substance in their guts to make it a real contest.

Growing up in Northern Ireland during the 1970s and as a Catholic we viewed the police with suspicion at best and outright hatred at worst.Why?Well,our police became so politicised and demoniacally cruel,such as illustrated by your SWAT teams,they descended into trial by NO JURY and internment without trial.Does this await the people of the USA?Of course this was all done legally,with vile legislation being produced at the hands of ,we now know,a paedophile Prime Minister and all who did his bidding installed in fantastic sinecures even to this day.The police on the ground though still to this day check under their cars for bombs their children even at the right schools are viewed with suspicion as collaborators children and grandchildren and those who shifted into business are now being horrendously taxed.

Hey “mlangbert” You must take what you can get and learn to discern the truth that is given in between all the lies. It’s not just the Obama Admin putting out climate change, there are many others saying the same about sea level rise. Obama is just using it to his political advantage. To understand this crazy mess, we call life, one must take a giant step back to see the bigger picture. I don’t think Gerald and his crew waist there time to hear all these “na sayers”. That’s the main problem in America. I believe this summer’s Trends Journal is dedicated to people like “mlangbert” that don’t care! Just want to vent their ignorance. Go volunteer your time helping someone or head down to the border help those 1000’s of kids. America, Lots of Hot Air, But No Sails. America will never shine again, we are all teamed up against each other. Most are too busy putting down the people making a mess instead of coming up with solutions can help clean up. Come on people, just be nice to each other. What’s that golden rule humanity has forgotten. Do to others, as you would have them do to you. Something along those lines. People are hurt others because they are hurt themselves. Humanity is lost! Please don’t blame poor people, rich people or the government. We where all duked by the powers that be, the old monarchs and wealthy families control us like slaves. Slavery never ended, it evolved in to the wage slave. We were never given a chance, so forgiver yourselves for your not knowing, your anger and frustration. I don’t know the answers, the world is to complex, but starting by taking care of oneself seems to be number one in this Brave New World. Thank you Trend’s Journal for you open eyes and ears and Gerald for reading this depressing news every night in a colorful and comedic way. Much Love to Gerald and Crew!

Excellent article! Dr. Skolnick, D.C. is right on target. We don’t give a s**t about ourselves or the collective. The medical community, for the most part, with exceptions of course, keep treating the disease symptoms, but never dig into the root cause of the problem.

I truly believe allopathic medicine doctors need to get more than 30 hours of nutrition and preventative medicine. That is a paltry amount of time spent on the most important subject that underlies most diseases. Big Pharma will freak out when doctors begin prescribing whole food diets, rather than pills..and so they won’t get their trip to Tahiti, but I DON’T CARE!!! It needs to happen. I respect doctors who live and breathe this concept of treating your illness with the source, first, which is what you put into your body. Remember: Garbage in equals garbage out. I hope the whole food approach is a TREND that all in the medical community adopt…

Having worked in an art museum, I saw the waste of funds on garbage that passes itself off as art. It all depends on what direction the director or curator wants to take. Some of the garbage we bought wasn’t worth the canvas it was painted on. ‘Ditto with sculptures that included welded I-beams or crushed cars.

Some folks flaunt their wealth by buying junk and then donating it to a museum for the write-off. The museum wants it because they hope to get better stuff. The public suffers from the degeneration of art.

But wait, that’s not the worse. Hopefully the trend has died, but there is also the “shock art” genre which is temporary in nature and meant to provoke the senses. Put the Madonna upside in elephant urine, spread fortune cookies on the floor (feed the rodents I suppose), tie someone to a post and sodomize them and call it art (I think the SF Art Institute did this)

Dear Mr Celente

Thank you for your great wisdom and fearless analysis.

I find a meaningful explanation of these events in the publications of the “Project for the New American Century”. Their paper “Rebuilding America’s Defenses” is I believe the key to present American policy. If one couples this document to the apparent refusal of American authorities to prevent 9/11, and to the war plan hatched at the Pentagon and exposed by General Wesley Clark at the Commonwealth Club of California on October 3, 2007, one sees a clear and disturbing scenario. This imperative was further seen in the criminal path to make war on Iraq. Bearing in mind the testimonies of Tyler Drumhelder, Scott Ritter, Hans Blix, Major General Michael Laurie (at the Chilcot Enquiry), and the documents namely The Downing Street Memo, The February Dossier (fabricated by Paul Hamill) and the September Dossier, there can be no doubt that there was a hidden agenda stemming, I believe, from the Project for the New American Century. One should also be cogniscent of the pronouncements of Daniel Pipes when viewing the rise of ISIS in the Syria/Iraq arena. It is he who stated that America should support whichever side was losing in Syria and allow the combatants to slaughter each other. Like the men behind Project for the New American Century, Pipes too, has strong Israeli connections.

If you are at all interested in my research field I would welcome an in depth discussion.

This is BS. Some how the article doesn’t cover the change in overall exercise that children get from the late 80’s and now. Then TV was 3 to 5 channels, their was no internet or cellphones. Kids then walked or road a bike to a friends house to play. Today they get on the internet.
or have Mommy or Daddy drive them there. Their is this fear that some sicko will do some harm to your kid if they leave your sight. Before children walked the neighborhood (some ran, greedy)on Halloween. Now most kids go to the mall. Because it’s safe.

I lived near Stone Ridge, ya I’m local to Kingston and rode a minibike, then a full side dirt bike everywhere as a kid. So did everyone else. In the winter we had snowmobiles. They are physically demanding activities for those who don’t know. Now in the same area no kid has a minibike because they are dangerous. That and the main trail that I rode is now a rail trail.

I have to respectfully disagree with Dr. Roberts opinion about the development of law enforcement becoming “militarized”. I will only make several points, however, I have many more.
1. Every nation’s police, even down through history, have taken training and tactics from the military because the training and tactics have been proven to work. That does not mean, however, that the tactics and training are exactly the same… often they are modified. An example of this can be seen with law enforcement in the U.S. being given equipment that is from the military, but is not used offensively. The military was the first force to test and use body armor, which was then given to police. The MRAPs are not tanks, but armored vehicles that do not have missile launchers or .50 caliber machine guns on top…they are not tanks! MRAPs are like an armored car that a cash courier service uses…its armored to protect the people inside from gunfire. What’s wrong with the police wanting to have available cover should someone start shooting at them???
2. Having worked in law enforcement for a many number of years and having been told the “war stories” of older cops about how things were in the 60’s and 70’s and what kind of craziness the police were involved in then that was NEVER reported because people genuinely feared the police then, it is difficult for me to believe that the police today are any worse than the police of the last two generations. In fact, the police today are held more accountable and are given better training than the police of the past two generations…we have cameras pointed at us all the time and law suits abound!!
3. It’s easy to point out the corruption in law enforcement agencies nationwide because law enforcement always has to work in the public’s eye. However, one must remember that corruption can be found in all the power centers of society, not just law enforcement. Corruption can be found in religion, government, military, business, charitable organizations, education, manufacturing, etc. etc. etc…. It’s safe to say that corruption is rampant in our society, so simply blaming one small segment, (y’know, the less than 1% that are obligated to enforce the law) for all of societies problems just doesn’t make sense.
4. There are less police today than there were in the 70’s, about a third of the total number that were employed during the 1970’s. Thanks to budget cuts and technology as well as an increase in private security firms, the amount of police nationwide has dropped considerably since the 1970’s while the amount of people have increased. The net result is that there are fewer police percentage wise than during the 1970’s. There’s approximately 1 law enforcement officer for every 100 people in the U.S., and there’s approximately only 1 law enforcement officer able to respond to the needs and calls for every 500 people in the U.S. Keep in mind that is only 2 officer per 1000, whereas the U.S. is the most litigious society on the planet with 33 lawyers per 1000.

Another point I would make is that some in the public get upset when they see police carrying military styled weapons such as AR-15 rifles. However, criminals and the general public routinely have access to much more powerful weapons and have used them to kill police officers. The public should not expect law enforcement to be able to protect them if they are unable to meet force with force. The North Hollywood shootout that happened in 1997 should be proof that police need to have reliable weapons and equipment in order to help prevent mass chaos from erupting.

Case in point…the public hates cops until they need them. Criminals hate cops all the time.

The “I don’t care” series is a chilling portrait of the hollow, careless, starved and hopeless developed society, although this trend can be observed throughout the world to a greater or lesser degree. With the geopolitical turmoil spreading like wildfire around the globe I am constantly plagued by the question of how such conspicuous atrocities like the genocide in the Gaza, ethnic cleansing in the East of Ukraine and blatant destruction of society in Libya, Syria and Egypt are being perpetrated without punishment, swept under the carpet by the media, or even worse – justified as acts of righteous protectionism. I wonder if the large part of the answer lies in the “I don’t care” culture, insidious yet so unashamedly blatant?

I do agree with Dr. Roberts. At one time police used to be preventers of crime not perpetrators. Police were to up hold the law not dismiss it as some inconvenience. Police were originally hired to keep the peace not to become a military force. Shyly berry, back in the 60’s our National Guard was used to stop the violence against the protesters or to stop violence from protesters, not the police force. Everytime the police got involved, the situation got worse. Kent State is a prime example. Some 30 to 40 years later it was determined a sniper was the cause of all the chaos not the students. The students were unarmed but not the law enforcement agents who were going up against a bunch of peaceful students. What you weren’t told was the saying back then was “Make Peace Not War or Make Love Not War. ” Every march was peaceful but In every instant of chaos there was a criminal element involved. Like today, your average Joe & Jane doesn’t want violence , they want a peaceful change. It is all the law enforcement agencies who are arming themselves to the teeth that would make any high raking officer proud. All across this nation, cops have become THUGS and that is with a capital T. Since you didn’t live in the 40ies, 50ies, 60ies or 70ies and it is only hear say you are going by which can be overly exaggerated (just like the Marshall’s lied about being pinned down at Ruby Ridge and we all know how that turned out). People today are sick and tired of being brutalized by cops, by their governments whether it is local, state or federal and it is not going to end happily. Police brutality is police brutality, no matter how they are trained or how well equipped they are. Dr Roberts is telling us the truth. Our responsible is to do our research to whatever we read and I have done mine and Dr. Roberts is spot on. So, I agree to disagree with you shleyberry. I just love the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence and the Trends Journal to allow me to speak my peace. May God bless you all and keep you safe.

When I used to travel, the tour company offered trips like this. You were told to go shopping and had a list of produce to buy and a budget. Great way to meet locals. Then once back, you had to wash and prepare it locally (under guidance of course). You were also divided into groups and sent to individual homes for dinner. You met the family, saw how they lived and learned about their culture firsthand.

Anyhow, it was fun while it lasted. When the interest rates are raised (and the chair of the St Louis Fed suggested that it should go up in the first quarter of 2015), everything is over.

Personally though, I would prefer it would also come in PDF format, just like your TJ. PDF is much better for portable devices which can’t be connected online the whole time.

Totally agree, its only the first edition though so i am sure next month they will also include a PDF version (hassle to copy and paste all the articles)

Gerald, in spite of the disclaimer to this story, you have repeated the party line to a tee, which is atypical of you. I could dismantle each piece of “information” in this study on climate hysteria, but I just don’t have the time to cover it all. In brief: Islands have been disappearing beneath the waves throughout history (while others have risen from the deep, but you never see reports about THOSE events); the oceans are not rising inexorably, but go through periods of thermal expansion having nothing to do with melting ice shelves. The recent (previous decade or so) rise in temperatures have given way to a cooling period—which the climate pundits claim is further proof of CAGW; many of the record-setting temperatures in the 20th century were recorded in the first few decades. For catastrophic weather events, nothing that has occurred in the last half century beats the extremes that took place in the 19th and early 20th centuries; most of the damage done by Katrina was the result of the aging levees breaking. I won’t go into the effects of chemtrails and HAARP on weather patterns. Please do the research or leave the subject alone!

I still remember when on news around 1990 they were telling “Globalization” was going to be a great idea and an improvement for this “World”. It would have created jobs into third world countries moving them into a first world level while western countries would move from an industrial economy into a service economy. They were claiming a common economical improvement was going to be inevitable and it was going to make everybody richer and happy. It is sad to notice that they were badly lying and viceversa the entire world is becoming poorer and poorer as well as more insane. I still remember that day because it is clear in my mind how they were manipulating me and it is a day impossible to forget. To wake-up, you have to understand the way they are cheating you or they will fool you over and over again.

I cannot thank you enough for writing this article! As a painter and toy designer I deal with the BS on a daily basis. I have worked my ass off to have the skill set and technique needed to create beautiful paintings as that is the classical way of training the artist along with the above mentioned skills you mentioned in your article such as composition etc. It is refreshing to have someone agree with an issue that has angered, infuriated, and disturbed me my whole life. Going to art school we were force fed this crap and I always hated it as it was idiotic and insulting to be told that this “conceptualism” was the modern art!!!!!!
We were taught that it was intelligent art . One of the first conceptual pieces is of an old toilet and it is very famous. REALLY? REALLY??? is that ok??? in our society to have people discussing the deep level of art found in a piece of crap like that? having all types of “important” art critics discuss this type of work in length…as if the common man would not have the intelligence to understand the “underlying” meaning behind a toilet as art!!!!!!!! its an outcry for real artists everywhere and its been this way for a long long time. Its time to change this and bring true/real art back!!!!!!

The “I don’t care” is the American food manufactures not their customers. They put so much crap in the food that it not only kills you but makes you addicted to it. Get yourself off all processed foods and junk foods and eat fresh real food instead of the chemically laden junk that is pushed onto you. And before you say “I have no time” or “I’m to busy”, think about how much time you’ll lose laying in a hospital bed waiting for your bypass surgery.

Independent critical thinkers, brave enough to seek, face and voice the truth. I am deeply grateful for your work and your existence as a human being.

Dear health conscious reader,

For the first time ever, Dr.OZ took a stand and started a petition for America to stand up against toxic chemicals.

40,000 people have signed the Dr.OZ Petition to the President in ONE day!
What if we could make it 100K in 2 days???!!!
We are SERIOUS about stopping this toxic product Enlist Duo from being sprayed on our food crops and near schools!

Enlist Duo contains Glyphosate (an antibiotic, chelator and endocrine disruptor…read: weakened immune system, vitamin and mineral deficiency and birth defects and infertility…yes, really) AND 2,4-D ( half of Agent Orange, you know, the chemical that killed 400K in Vietnam and gave birth defects to 500K more) and they want to SPRAY THIS ON OUR FOOD…and on fields just feet away from our schools!

Dr.Oz said “I am very concerned we are at the beginning of a catastrophe.”
WE could avert it.
We could share, text, call and ask every friend we know to SIGN this petition.

Watch the first three minutes here:
http://www.doctoroz.com/episode/new-gmo-pesticide-doctors-are-warning-against

Keep watching after the commercials for the clip where he calls for us to sign the petition.

You can also ask your friends to go to Moms Across America and click on ACTION to find out more!

I agree that aging doesn’t necessarily slow innovation or productivity, it enhances it if your have acute pruning techniques developed, i.e. Able to cut out he fluff that inexperienced people do not have, then you can shortlist solutions much quicker

However, I do not generally see Boomers (full disclosure, I am not one but I’m not too far away) actually engaging with many outside of their own age bracket, nor do I see them on mass associating with young people’s plight of how they will navigate the debt world left to them

What I do see is boomers getting up and saying something often only when they are about to loose something. Look at how the voting went in Scotland for example, a No vote ensured the status quo because the older generations feared loss of pensions and benefits. They ignored totally the younger generations plight and/or desire for change. The scope of their concern was inward focused, not focused on other generations coming after them or on their nation as a whole (see analysis articles on the breakdown of the voting etc)

Consequently I don’t share the optimism that this article is saying is a ‘trend’, being that Boomers are becoming more active in activism. What I do see is more boomers becoming increasingly wrapped in their own demographic led concerns and disassociating from other generations, especially the young generations with whom, because of technology, they have less in common with than ever before (yes less, because Boomers do not understand all the technology the young use, they only understand a subset, such as e-mail, facebook etc and they mostly use it to associate with their own age bracket or close family)

What I do see, is more young people rallying behind environmental issues than boomers, more young people creating the tools and inventions that are uniting the world more than ever, far more so than boomers and sadly, far more so than my generation has ever done either 🙁

The last paragraphs of the original article puts it more in context

Quote:
Many boomers, however, stopped standing when they entered the world of work. They accepted the status quo and stopped asking the hard questions. Maybe now they’ll be inspired by their Market Basket brethren. Perhaps they’ll start asking hard questions about their own workplaces and rethink how their companies value employees.

If boomers start doing that, they just might be able to finally reclaim their legacy and create a better workplace for everyone.
/End Quote:

Notice the ‘MAYBE’, ‘IF’, ‘MIGHT’ and ‘CREATE’

These are future tense words, not current tense words!

Let’s all hope this Boomer generation stands up for ‘right values’ but I have my doubts based on what I have seen so far, which is a generation that has only really stood up on mass for issues when they were about to be negatively impacted, not for issues affecting others outside of their sphere of concern or direct association. Surprise me Boomers please!

I have studied several documentaries regarding the events of “9/11” which have included the testimony of physicists, demolition experts, chemists from all over the world who studied the films of the decent of the buildings as well as examined the ruble left at the site. Almost every foreign nation has concluded that this “event” was planned, facilitated and executed by the neocons and new world order elites in collusion with the central bankers in order to hide evidence of wall street criminal behavior, gold theft, and to incite the American People to war with Iraq, in order to control oil fields as well as to send a message that middle eastern oil producers must use only the US Petro dollar for trade.
That was the real reason Saddam Hussein was murdered: he was by-passing the US dollar in selling oil.

Guess what. When the US dollar collapses, because the emerging “BRICK” (Brazil, Russia, India, China and African countries) countries are by-passing the US Dollar in trading, since it is based on a Ponzi scheme of debt, all this buying by whatever group will come to an end. The banks will call a Holiday and we won’t be able to get to our savings for who knows how many days. Better study your history. It has happened before in the US. It has happened recently in Greece. Forget the Crap on TV and dig for the truth. The US Dollar will lose at least 30% of its value. Lots of Luck.

as an Australian boomer, I agree with cuttingthruthefog. Casual interactions with outsiders continue nicely, but the closer ‘friends’ are showing the self serving betrayal of decency in interaction. Their judgement seems more clouded shallow and selfish. However I recently spent 5 days in a Public Hospital in Melbourne(asthma) and the care, respect, diligence and kindness of all the staff was fantastic compared with hospitals 30 years ago or a Private hospital 15 years go. Something has changed there in public hospital culture in Australia. Added to this they have put me on specialist follow up at no charge, and rehabilitation as needed at no charge by staff concerned with patients well being.. So I have trust there where there was none. In contrast prior to admittance, I was turned away from the local medical centre (could have died in the gutter) and told to go to a hospital. The social and medical ignorance and insulting arrogance of GP’s is far far worse each year and their charges, 63 AUD for 12 minutes are horrendous.

What is to made of this constant comparison of generations? If it is what drives employment it must not be underrated. Boomers have ties. They are tied to the promises of government that are more likely to be fulfilled for their own generation. This does not mean they are not strong in employment virtues. Unlike younger generations they are not disabled by whining about what they deserve. This is not meant to say that they are somehow better, merely that they possess the belief that one should work hard and well for benefits offered. Younger generations are more prone to feel entitled, even if that sense of entitlement is balanced with an awareness that they are stuck with a rigged system.

I’m a proponent of the DO. I injured my back years ago and suffered for a month taking the muscle relaxers the MD prescribed. It was only after several visits to the DO, that I experienced lasting relief and healing. Big Pharma would never promote Whole Health Healing. All the MDs do is push the meds. I avoid them.

Kudos and bouquets to you, nicolem & innovators! I thought I had it rough raising my kids in the 70s & 80s, but it is sooo much worse now trying to avoid poisoning children. Back then the biggest challenge was finding organic if you didn’t grow your own food. The main concern was the application of pesticides and herbicides to food crops and the use of artificial coloring and flavoring in foods. There was no such thing as GMOs, RBGH or HFCS. With a little effort we could even procure raw milk without worrying about a SWAT team from the FDA kicking our door in.

Blessings on the both of you. Your children are very fortunate to have such savvy and caring mothers.

I am also surprised that there is no mention of weather manipulation by the US military. This is also practiced by China and Russia. HARRP and chemtrails seem to be involved. I think it is time for a thorough investigation of the available information from whistle blowers and supposedly leaked gov’t documents regarding geo-engineering. If weather manipulation could be proven, it could very well be the wake-up call the public needs to stop the NWO.

I see there are a few comments supporting the police, I don’t like the police, however I walk the streets a lot in Long Beach Cal and don’t see much of the police being out of line. So maybe it is only 1 to 3% of the police doing way out of line stuff to the people, I’ll give you that, but I’ve seen numerous videos of the police murdering people, right in our face and they totally get away with it. This has clearly got to be way wrong, there has got be a civilian review board for police complaints, with the power to arrest and hold without bail on serious charges, that’s the only way this maybe 1 to 3% can be stopped. The board would contain proper upstanding members of the community not criminals like the police would say. If they did this the bad maybe 1 to 3% would get taken of the force right away and the rest would treat the people with respect, instead of what they do now.

Hey Samuelc62, I completely agree with you. I’m getting quite deflated by it all (and I’m not even American or have served my country and witnessed the things you must of). I live in New Zealand. It seems certainly with America’s close allies like NZ, Australia, the UK and Canada, the propaganda machine has ramped up several notches this year – to the point where it’s made me stop watching broadcast news and visiting mainstream news websites. I was a journalist for 12 years with one of NZ’s major broadcasters and now I can’t stand watching the very news programmes and channel I worked for. I’ve tried my hardest to make people around me think about the bigger picture, the manipulation, the strings being pulled, but most people just don’t want to hear it. Life is still too comfortable here – as long as they can still buy the new iPhone 6 (on credit, of course) they don’t want to know. It’s like what Gerald says – “when people lose everything and have nothing left to lose – they lose it.” Sadly, we are no where near that in NZ at the moment.. and when the majority of people here actually wake up it’ll be too late.

Interestingly he is using his left hand to slaughter the guy . From the viewpoint of islam use of the left hand is to be the “hand of the devil” . This is very unusual ?? I have lived here in the middle east for over 24 years ; experienced the deep sub-liminal hate the locals have for the west ; they tolerate us here . Interestingly here in Dubai on independence day we had a procession of beautiful Ferrari sports cars I had never seen so many (30) the young local yobs who have never done a days work in their lives were driving these machines . I stood on the corner is this UAE independence day or the Italian day of independence ! . I was promptly warned by the policemen !!
I am glad that it is the Italians who can make these cars ; the day the locals here in Dubai reach the technological limits to build vehicles such as these the expats here will out of a job . I think that will be a long time in the future . Being of Italian descent I am justly proud .

If you are a westerner the crowd drags you to the front of the crowd to exemplify and warn this is what happens if you transgress “God’s Law ” . It is a very disturbing spectacle ; what is more there is a deep and tortuous suspicion as to the legal process that has led to final terminal act of “God” .

Why “the world is going to hell in a hand-basket” based on my experience in both the healthcare and information technology fields, it is the result of pure Gluttony.. in other words most are consumed by their greedy and/or excessive self promoting, self-indulgence. The failure to recognize the value add of good moral and ethical behavior towards their fellow humans. Most humans these days don’t ask “what can I do to help my fellow countrymen”, but rather “what can I TAKE or GET for FREE from my country and countrymen” here in the USA! Too many lack the confidence and therefore seek the approval of social media via their “SELFIES” (which ironically the term was coined back in the 1930’s by coroner’s referring to a “selfie” as a suicide). So the fix to regaining trust, have every politician submit to a lie detector test and eliminate the mafia-structured lobbyists. Get back to basics and you’ll find people are forced back to the truth which breeds trust.

They (FOMC members) are very smart.

Gold has always been accepted without reference to any other guarantee.

Newspapers in the classical sense have become less relevant because of informal information sharing on the Web. I’m skeptical that newspapers have done even a passable job for decades. Robert Caro’s The Power Broker illustrates how Robert Moses manipulated the Times to his benefit for decades, and the Times, even in the 1930s and 1940s, lacked the critical perspective necessary to evaluate what Moses was doing. David Halberstam’s The Best and the Brightest tells a similar story about the Vietnam War. The country was better off when partisan journalism was the norm, and we are returning to that with the World Wide Web. As far as I’m concerned, good riddance to Adolph Ochs’s model of journalism and to 20th century newspapers.

While this sounds good on the paper, at current research rate we are at least 30 years from practical power plant. Moreover, the idea in not new; driving nuclear fission from an “external” source was proposed some 20 years ago:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_amplifier

Unlike its Russian fusion counterpart, the Energy Amplifier is feasible with current technology. Yet, no plans to commercialize it have surfaced, save for a small research project in Japan. So personally, I believe the Russians just made a publicity stunt with very, very remote chance of actually finishing the reactor.

Many times our delusional western leaders claim we are spreading “democracy” and “capitalism” around the world. But we have neither.

The US thinks it’s got a patent, copyright and trademark on these two noble concepts. It goes around forcing this “franchise” of this distorted idea of both capitalism and democracy – when in fact, it’s all just snake oil.

So when other nations state we don’t want your democracy or capitalism, that’s exactly what they mean – they don’t want US democracy or US capitalism.

They want “real” capitalism and “real” democracy.

I remember Bush trying to setup Putin – that Russia should have a democracy like the US exported to Iraq. Putin said “no thanks”. The press ran with that, as if Putin said no to democracy. When in fact, he said no to Bush, not democracy.

It is so hard to get prepared. They do not want anyone prepared or even knowledgeable or able to connect the dots. Even on two incomes, we are just wage slaves working to pay for our temporary mediocre existence. They have made it so hard for small businesses that the American dream of owning one and being self-reliant is just that, a dream. To escape this downward spiral on a long term basis for even upper middle class is not possible. Our bodies and minds are being poisoned and people are clueless. They will find themselves in a FEMA camp, or some Agenda21 style “sustainable unit” where they are not allowed to leave past 8PM curfew or have a Russian or Chinese or Israeli bomb land on their head before they ever ever wake up. I know this because I share information with people and they just don’t care, they really are walking dead. I remember in 7th grade learning about the holocaust and trying to wrap my head around how any population could allow such a nightmare situation to arise but now I know first hand, because that is the direction we have gone and we are witnessing the development of it first hand. Our rights are gone, our society has been so demoralized, they are capable of killing millions with their tax dollars, and turning a blind eye to levels of corruption and greed at unprecedented levels that history has never seen. People don’t know their neighbors, children don’t know their parents and parents don’t know their children. The vast majority of this nation is a thoughtless, heartless society now that instead of worrying about the entire families wiped out in Gaza massacres or how the bankers are stealing the life out of us, would rather watch the latest and greatest idiot on the boob tube. I have twin two year old boys, and one on the way and everytime I think about this topic and what future they will see, I am extremely frightened. I have done everything in life by the book and so has my husband so that I could have children and give them opportunity and a quality life but at the end of the day I feel helpless against these psychopaths in even protecting their lives, because I know they will be knocking on our door soon. We the people need to unite against this evil, just as the founders did. We need to not be afraid of the repercussions of speaking against them while we still have a voice, before we are on that train to Auschwitz. But to be effective, likeminds need to get organized and unless you move to Kingston or New Hampshire, here in the states you are pretty much alone.

The great manipulation is truly world wide. The media in New Zealand is very careful to toe the line from Washington that “The War on Terror” must be fought even down here. That Russia is bad. That China is bad but its ok to keep trading with her. That the Trans-Pacific Partnership is good. That surveillance that can intrude into the lives of everyone is necessary.
And because the media does not present a balanced picture all the local yokels vote for governments that support these things.

The big killer in golf is the endorsement money. $500 drivers because they pay somebody to put their headcover on display. Many of the pros don’t even swing the driver they are pimping unless they are sure to be on TV. And the price of golf balls is ridiculous. There used to be a great selection of components to build your own clubs. That is a lot cheaper than paying the premium price for just the standard big names, and if you want a different shaft, the price goes up and it can take awhile for your clubs to be delivered. Buy components and you won’t have to wait for delivery. The tools needed are easily less than the difference in the brand name price differential, and you’ll learn something about custom fitting. It’s not hard, but most people have little if any manual skills.

I really don’t understand why TJ keeps promoting those BlackLight Power frauds. Because to see through their lies, you don’t have to go furher than the press releases on their own website:

http://www.blacklightpower.com/press/

They announce a breakthrough every 2 years or so, yet these breakthroughs are “mysteriously” forgotten and replaced by something else 2 years later. I still remember mr. Daviss’ lengthy puff piece about “hydrino power” in 2012 Summer edition of TJ. He closed it with:

“The next 24 months will be definitive for Mills and his CIHT device. If he can deliver a 1.5-kilowatt prototype during that time, he’s likely to issue a public stock offering soon after and to contract with manufacturers to build CIHT cells for BlackLight Power, which will lease them to end-users.
If those things happen, a hydrino-based alternative energy economy could be dawning within the next five years.”

Well, it is 30 months later, and it was a total bust, like everything people behind BlackLight Power ever said in the last 20 years or so. Yet, TJ still promotes them. Oh well, nothing is perfect, not even TJ…

I just finished reading “The Lords of Creation”, which is a formerly banned analysis of the factors leading up to the Great Depression, and also, a new book by Nomi Prinz; “All the President’s Bankers”. My reaction to the shock of finding out our government has been lying to us about being in collusion with Wall St.and central banks from almost the inception of our country, is one of frustration. After I left the teaching profession because it was apparent my administration was dead-set against having the students learn real skills (and real THINKING skills), I became a contractor training designer for DOE. THAT was a real eye-opener…anybody who wanted to pursue true personal excellence in performance was quickly shut down by cowering bootlickers who just wanted to keep their heads down so no real responsibility was shunted off safely. To do this, they became willing participants in the Great Manipulation. I retired early to get away and begin preparations for the next stage of the predestined fall of this country…martial law. The comment by nicolem_194 expresses dismay because they did “everything by the book” and it’s not having the promised result. Did they ever question who wrote the book? I keep faulting myself for not being able to see the future well enough to make good preparations, but I’ve decided on a personal path dedicated to subverting the obvious role we “useless eaters” are given. Now, I seek out anyone who stills shows determination, honesty, courage, and integrity, and I do my utmost to help them achieve their dreams however I can-whether my contributions are big or small, it’s where I’m putting my energy. United, we stand, divided, we fall.

Nicolem 1984’s worry over the future of her children is of great concern. A concern that I haven’t given that much thought..yet. I mean as a single i’ve been worrying about my own generation and been saddened by total downfall of western culture. But our generation is not going to lose it all. It’s propably the next one. For me it’s quite clear that most of the mind controlling technologies, medication (drugs), mediapolitics, various devices that do god knows what, and all this stuff that’s given in the last two decades, are not primarily for us, the current generation that is. It’s mainly targeted at the next generation. I see these young people grown up and programmed to see the world as shown to them by television, internet and pc-games, and I notice that as a result their attitude toward the future is radically different from those born in 60’s and 70’s. I don’t really see who would be the people that are supposed to protest against this current manipulation trend. Not my generation no. I look at my generation (born in late 60’s and early 70s’) and they’re far too fat and happy to change their worldview (provided by tv of course). Too prosperous (or at least they think so) to rebel against anything. The next generation has different programming and their angle to glooming future is more different than we are willing to acknowledge. Sure there are exceptions and their number is growing. But right now there is no public force strong enough to come up with another way of life. Perhaps this takes place only after wwIII. I surely don’t hope so. Thank you GC for valuable work you and your staff are doing.

Gerald and staff: I was told 2 years ago that the “elite’s”- banksters as you call them, had a plan to destroy the middle class, tax them into oblivion he said!
Something big is about to happen. People who are paying attention can feel it. One of my contacts has told me China is planning to double the prices of gold, and thus silver, overnight in late Feb. 2015, right after the Chinese New Year. The elite’s can’t do much about this, although I heard this yesterday=

The plan, as CME Group has explained it, is to close the gold futures market and the silver futures market for five minutes if there is a variation of $100 in gold and $3 in silver from the previous day’s close. The timing of this is very interesting.
They do this to protect themselves- corruption everywhere!

Obama lies about everything- Muslim’s are allowed to do this for their cause. Obama is amrried to a MAN, Michelle is a man- born Michael, yet the media won’t touch this. No one can believe anything this man says, lies and more lies. His live is built on lies.
He is CIA, trained by them and the fascist wing of the CIA, his handler is Henry Kissinger- a corrupt communist.

Absolutely spot on ! Obesity increase in the UK especially has been dramatic, to say the least. With the burgeoning supermarket shelves giving us ‘Low fat’ and rows and rows of carbonated drinks with artificial sweeteners the rise in disease is frightening. It is very simple. The body can and will heal and regulate itself providing it gets the Minerals and vitamins it requires. Exercise and intermittent fasting is the key to controlling diabetes. Preventing Cancers are 95% successful if you stop eating grains and wheat products. Drinking distilled water is another must. Alkalising the blood is paramount to keeping healthy and disease free in the main. And my biggest interest is …everyone must increase their cholesterol !! The biggest precursor of death is low cholesterol. It is the oxidation of cholesterol that makes is so bad. Cholesterol is absolutely essential to fight dementia/alzheimers, diabetes and cardiovascular heart disease. Organic, grass fed meats, eggs and cheese is GOOD for you. Allopathic medicine ( GP/MD) will kill you, first and foremost. Get smart and get read up on this info. I’m a Naturopathic doctor in the UK with 25 years research and practice. We support human health not destroy it. Doctors are needed for some surgery, of course and for trauma based accidents but your GP/MD IS KILLING YOU>

And no one knows how many billions of dollars the NY fed has hammered into the stock market since 2011. QE will never be over because it’s the only thing standing in the way of total economic annihilation. Direct purchases of treasuries have been replaced with direct transfers of assets to foreign countries which in turn purchase the treasuries. It’s all just a house of cards that could collapse any time.

I must say this got me really interested, so I looked up the Nature article Geim’s team published. Well, and after looking at their numbers it doesn’t look as promising. The biggest problem is, they still need to feed electricity into their cell to produce the protons/hydrogen. In their experiments, the efficiency was between 35% to 50%, depending on operating parameters. Which is very poor efficiency, because water electrolysis cells approach 100% efficiency nowadays (and produce oxygen, which can be sold for extra profit). Of course, that may change when the new method is used on industrial scale, but it is definitely too soon to call this a “breakthrough which will usher hydrogen economy era”. Its main advantage seems to be the ultra-high purity of the produced hydrogen and I’m sure that will be highly useful, even if the new method will fail as a means of true mass-production.

As a physician I can verify the truth of this. Many patients will need to decide whether to treat their Lyme disease or buy healthy food. While the Obama care was being written there was no effort to find out why our health care is so expensive. So it ends up reinforcing all the bad aspects of our health care system. Part of the reason is the corruption at the FDA, which charges excessive fees to process “new” drug applications. I do not understand why a drug that has been vetted by several countries including Canada and the European Union needs to go through the entire testing process again in the country. It can cost a billion dollars to bring a drug to market in the U.S. that has been used safely in Europe for ten years. Cooperation in this matter would save incredible amounts of money. This is one example of Obama Care missing the mark. Another example is ignoring the issue of facility fees. These fees often double the cost of a patient’s visit to a physician; if they are employed by a hospital. It is one of the main reasons physicians are selling out to the big chains. We can’t compete against this entitlement granted to large and thriving hospital chains. These are just two of the many reasons medical costs are increasing. Instead of attempting to decrease costs Obama Care has encouraged medical cost inflation. It should be renamed the Unaffordable health care act.

@ shleyberry, 5000 citizens killed by POLICE since 9/11! How many cops, shleyberry? Let me guess, maybe 10. As long as cops think the way you do, things will never change. Most cops that I encounter are egomaniacs with an inferiority complex. These degenerates were like this long before they joined the police force. We had a G-20 meeting in Toronto a few years ago and the police on duty were from forces all across the country. They all acted in unison as if trained together. It was a display of police brutality never seen before in Canada, many of their tactics copied from their brothers in blue in your country, such as “kettling” hundreds of peaceful demonstrators then locking them in large human cages, on site and leaving them without water or food for as much as 48 hours. Then releasing them with no charges. This police behaviour planned and condoned by the Neo-conservative gov’t of Stephen Harper our own fascist/Zionist/NWO globalist dictator.

Take a look at the work of Dr. Gerald Pollack. He is a water researcher. His work regarding structured water is very interesting. I tried going on a fast for 5 days taking only a few supplements such as an essential amino acid complex, minerals and vitamins. Thought i would be starving after the secnd day, but surprisingly, the hunger did not get any worse the entire duration. I did drink structured water, h3o2, but not huge amounts. By the 5th day, I started belching, most likely due to the fact that the supplements I took were meant to be taken with food. I think the structured water was the key. Look for Dr. Pollack’s videos on youtube. Yu can make your own device dirt cheap or buy one for ~2 bucks. All you need is a coupler for a ouple of 2 liter bottles. I used reverse osmosis deionized water, but good clean water is all oyu need.

QE is the purchase of government bonds by the privately owned Federal Reserve with money created without any backing.

The old name for it was “money printing”

All it ultimately does in dilutes the money supply. Whether it increases liquidity is debatable since the evidence since 2009 suggests it has remained beyond the reach of the real (main street) economy.

It has however been very successful in widening the wealth gap by accelerating the wealth of the 0.1% at the top of the pyramid.

QE will fail, there is no doubt. A solvency problem cannot be cured with fake liquidity – especially when it occurs in a closed system based upon money created by debt issuance.

Reality is certain to break through at some point – it may not be today, tomorrow or this year, but it will happen.

Good luck USA when that happens.

From a home furnishing insider with over thirty years on experience, Mr. Celente’s assessment is right on target. Across the board retail sales in home furnishings are a whopping 40% to 75% down from 2008. What was first thought to be a short term reaction to the 2008 crisis actually turned into the new normal. Probable causes are high unemployment, low wages, high inflation on every day necessities, younger people renting or living at home, baby boomers down sizing and selling high quality items for a fraction of their true value, internet retail competition with very low profit margins working on high volume and finally the overall pessimism about the US economy and world conditions in general.

Case in point, the demise of High Point, North Carolina, the Mecca of home furnishings manufacturers and importers. Even Karges, America’s oldest furniture manufacturer, a 128 year old company found itself at the brink of closure and finally was sold by the family in 2014.

Most of the retailers that survived did so because they owned their own facilities and had deep enough inventories and backup savings to carry them through. Unfortunately if there is another serious economic down turn, I think the last of these companies will throw in the towel much more quickly.

Awesome insights!

As this piece starts out with reference to what economics profs etc once taught as corner pins to the economy are all but mere dreams of what was once held as acceptable standards. It reminds me of another apparent moving goal post of economic standard that has changed. “Depressions” were once defined as more than 2 quarters of economic slowdown. By anyone’s count, this “recession” they keep referring to is long long long overdue for correct terminology….must be why they keep pumping out the Benjamins by the TRILLIONS, eh? Anyway, “Depression” is a term that the Presstitutes refuse to use…kinda like “False Flag” and who is painfully responsible for all of the mess that they must otherwise regurgitate in other BS terminology for the unaware sleeping masses.

Gerald, thanks for the article. I am an older boomer, and have done exactly what you describe, a self-employed free-lancer with a internet business related to weddings in RI. I managed to start this business 15 years ago, and it is suprisinlgy doing well, or getting me by without having to leave the comfort of my home office. Yes, I earn less and don’t have the “security” of a full-time job and benefits, but realize that security is elusive anyway in our current job market. After being my own boss for so long, it would be hard to adapt to the the structure of a outside job. I also think employers are now more difficult and demanding, since they know there are so many lined up for jobs.

So on my million dollars of savings which in the old days at 5% would have provided $ 50,000′ instead I get $ 4,000.

My home value is devalued because no one has any money, and the banks are afraid to get “burned” again.

My 18 year old daughter was very excited after getting her driver license. I told her that diving is pain and very expensive – insurance and up keep of the car itself. The cost of gas is trivial. On top of that the slimy police is always on the road looking for extra cash. And there is not much of joy of driving any more. The most of drivers lack of good manners- cuts, tailgating, etc.

In my early youth, I enjoyed a stick shift, because it had good control. Then, I felt that I was flying a single stick carrier fighter. And Now, look at the instrument panel, it is full of buttons and gadgets and half of them are lack of good use. Those days driving was simple in taste and a lot fun. Many young men and their friend had a sense of accomplishment of by working on the cars, e.g. fine adjustment on the cabarator(sp) getting extra speed. That generation was full of enthusiam about vehicles they were working on and they learned about what make a car tick. Now the dealers do it all for you.

Now,car is a piece of show off. The drivers knows very little about the car he is driving. Take to dealer, if there something wrong with it.

At my former job (I pulled the plug and punched out) I had a coworker who worked part time at a mortuary. He told me that they’ve never had so many clients who had brain tumors. I asked what side of the brain the tumors were on. He replied, “right.” That told me that it was indeed from cell phones.

Decades ago the Naval Institute Press published a book, Tower of Secrets. Its author was a KGB major who was in charge of communications security for the embassies and consulates worldwide. Each embassy and consulate had a very small room that was packed from floor to ceiling with various radios, interception equipment, etc. The operators sent to work in these rooms were young men (generally age 21) who received a complete physical examination prior to being assigned to work overseas in those small rooms. Within five years, of reporting for duty, they were dying of cancer. When the major alerted his superior about it, he was told, “Never mind.”

@bluefalken: I wouldn’t count on it much. Fusing gold requires so high energies it is impossible even in stars – virtually all elements heavier than iron are the product of supernova nucleosynthesis. In other words, this is in all likelihood just another iteration of Andrea Rossi’s E-Cat scam, aimed at “investors” with deep pockets and shallow minds.

I am not closed minded about it. Remember “The Rip Van Winkle Caper”?
As the man, named George, gets back into his car to report Farwell’s death to the police, he quizzically remarks to his wife, “Can you imagine that? He offered this to me as if it was really worth something.” The wife vaguely recalls that gold had indeed been valuable at some time in the distant past. The husband replies, “Sure, about a hundred years or so ago, before they found a way of manufacturing it,” and tosses the gold bar away. What with “Yamashita’s Gold” and a hidden world of finance, technologies of another level of “civilization’s” knowledge we are not privy to, I would not be surprised. Do we really know how much physical gold actually exists on this planet?

The Philosopher’s Stone by Michio Kushi…… is a book that chronicles proven transmutation of elements. Some occurs within the body. Ever wonder where hens get all that calcium they put out in egg shells. They aren’t eating that much. Towards the end, there is an experiment in a plasma tube that transmuted elements…alkali earth metals…and there was some contamination…it was gold, so they added up the atomic numbers of all items in the tube including the electrodes and voila…it added up to gold’s number. The book ends about then, but it seems a strong hint and probably won’t get the author in too much trouble.

@devikabattan: except there is the little thing that no other scientists were able to replicate Kushi’s results…

“In 1964, George Ohsawa and Michio Kushi, based on the claims of Corentin Louis Kervran, reportedly successfully transmutated sodium into potassium, by use of an electric arc, and later of carbon and oxygen into iron. In 1994, R. Sundaresan and J. Bockris reported that they had observed fusion reactions in electrical discharges between carbon rods immersed in water. However, none of these claims have been replicated by other scientists, and the idea is now thoroughly discredited.”

Although Rosa Parks is now gone, I suggest you bring in still living speakers from the American civil rights struggles decades ago.

You’ll get much further if you bring yourself up to date on the peace movement so far as well. For example, the book, “SUBVERTING HATRED” available via presents issues of non-violence from many different religious perspectives and has been widely used in college courses. Also, can connect you up to both the ongoing activities of the VICTORY OVER VIOLENCE campaign especially for kids (with its 3 paragraph pledge)and the CULTURE OF PEACE DISTINGUISHED SPEAKER SERIES.

Plus, over the past decades many conversations / dialogues have taken place and been published, for example “ABOLISHING WAR,” “A PASSAGE TO PEACE,” “A QUEST FOR GLOBAL PEACE,” “CHOOSE LIFE,” and “HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY.” Such published conversations also approach the necessary inner revolution of the human being, in for example- “SEARCH FOR A NEW HUMANITY” and “PLANETARY CITIZENSHIP.”

You do a good job decoding propaganda, but only of a few select publications- FT, WSJ, NYT. I wonder how many of your subscribers actually read these very limited publications.

Although expressed by our American founders, ‘No Foreign Entanglements’ is not mentioned in our founding documents. Considering the many splintering and outright secessionist movements spreading across America these days, it may be time to consider these words from The Declaration of Independence–

“…Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government…”

Thanks–

Bluetooth wont help. Use a phone with low SAR value. Use a classic phone (no Handheld!) where possible. The only proven fact is that the waves coming from the phone transport energy. The closer you are the stronger it gets. This energy heats up parts of your body, brain etc… For a short time no problem. But what if the exposure time is very long?
Don’t panic but be aware and try to alter your habits.

Finally, it will all collapse of its own weight. Riots and insurrection will occur, the currency will collapse and we will start all over again. Remember the “new” French Frank, the “new” German Mark?

There will be a “new” US Devalued Dollar will be printed and perhaps backed by “something” or not.

The ensuing counry will be a shadow of the the past strength, and one of the giant entities; Russia, China or an Iranian (Persian) group will take over. Two of them may join together to do this.

We are only 320 Million versus 7 Billion. We are only 5% of the world population, and it is the height of audacity to impose our will and military on the other 95%. AS GC says, “payback’s a bitch.”

This is a enormous problem, growing all the time. Today Pfizer(#1 in the world) buys Hospira, the largest US manufacturer of injectable drugs.

We all have heard of the “80/20” principle. 80 percent of the sales is derived from 20% of the inventory. How about small, local, “mom and pop” stores that only sell the 20%? Let the Big Box stores carry the expense and cost of the other 80% Mom and pop can charge more for the convenience, fuel savings and time, as well as keeping the money in the local community.

We all know food convenience stores. But, how about Hardware, Stationary, Paint, Healthy and fresh meal prep (for tired workers), Bakery/deli/paper products/barbeque, Fresh produce/Select frozen food, etc., or combinations of these in one store. If these “mom and pops” can buy as a group nationally, they will have the leverage to get good prices and good profits, while the Big Boxes pay for the costs of the other 80%.

The local towns should subsidise store rent in town for three years from property taxes, to help the mom and pops get started.

Otherwise, the only other option is that the government would have to mandate special benefits, higher minimun wagesm great health care, more paid holidays, etc. to make the Big Boxes provide higher quality employment benefits. The “mom and pops” would be given their choice as to what benefits to provide, as they may only have one “employee” or a relative.

At one time in our history, there was no income tax! Only Import Duty paid for the entire Federal Government. If we did that, all of our current income tax could then be available as new net income.

As the US is the major market for all of the foreign manufactures, let them pay, as they did it in the past. Let’s do what is good for America for once.

Sounds like a good idea to me!

This is not the America I grew up in. We no longer declare war.

What audacity and ego allows five percent of the global population to invade and topple governments of other countries and tell the other 95% what to do.

As insane as that is, how can you do this by borrowing 17 Trillion Dollars and then propose to borrow more for present and future wars?

“Wounded wariers,” film of young Americans with no limbs – and these are the chaps that lived. How many of our young people have died? WHY?

How many children, parents, grand parents have died for nothing that they did wrong? Many millions I am sure.

Killing humans with drones or long range rifles is the same as shooing a deer for fun. It is cowardly act.What chance did they have?

So, by not “staying our of foreign enganglements” there will be some painful retribution on hour “homeland” just as we did to their “homeland.”

Thanks for such a timely and important article. Millions of people now are aware of what the real problems are and who caused them. But what can be done about it when everything seems to conspire towards suppression and control? I think if we want to change the world, we should start with ourselves. We still have the freedom to choose healthy food over junk food. We are free to exercise our bodies instead of watching another pointless TV program. We are free to think uplifting thoughts rather than reflect the violence and immorality that pervades the media. And we are free to help our neighbors and perform acts of kindness and avoid the wanton disregard for life that is portrayed everywhere. And if we can do all this, then we are setting the example for those around us to follow. The world must change, but it must begin within your heart.

Very insightful ,this bubble’s bursting seems close ,whether its 2015 or 2016 ,once it bursts ,would likely be worse than 2008, with equity,bond and other financial markets all going down simultaneously . While gold and silver seems a good hedge(real money) , the 2008 crash saw gold drop 30% initially before the big run up in the subsequent 3 years. could something similar happen to precious metals – say a drop to 800-850 in gold before eventually heading to 2000 /2500 ?

The only reasons to have your money in a bank is because you can earn some interest on it to partially counter inflation, and it is insured and safe. None of those reasons exist anymore. Now you pay them to hold your money? Now the insurance they carry is inadequate to protect the deposits and worst of all there is a clear trend that banks will loot the accounts when they feel necessary.

I say it makes sense to keep only enough money in the bank to be functional in your daily business (and look for alternatives when possible). Convert as much paper money with no intrinsic value to physical gold or other precious metals, or invest it in tangible assets like land or other valuable holdings.

Perhaps I am simplistic but this seems like common sense.

It looks like the scamers are getting more worried. France just put a limit 1.000,- € on cash transactions. Italy was one of the first countries to move the cash limit in daily transactions down to 3.000,- €. So we are at the point where their “legal tender” is not a “legal tender” anymore, cash is not accepted anymore, it has to be credit, in other words bank debt. We should all stop paying tax and take out what’s left in the bank accounts to give this nonsense the final kick. Since the money we use is not backe up by anything, is printed, or should I say moused into existance by private criminal corporations and then lend to the public (State) for interst, every new cent is new debt. Whereas the real wealth of any economy is created by the people, who should be the only owner of the money. Taxes are nothing but a “pizzo” (payment to a criminal organization) for protection. The Mafia might protect you from who knows who, but the Government does not even do that. The collected money goes straight to the slave masters.

Could be interesting in the long run, but… have you ever tried Occulus Rift (or other hyped VR display) yourself? It is quite awful – everything is jagged, because the displays simply don’t have high enough resolution (yet). But the main problem is that VR displays induce motion sickness, headaches and severe eye strain in many users, sometimes after mere minutes of use. This limits their usefulness, at least until these problems are ironed out – if they can actually be ironed out, because it is hypothesized that many of them are caused by the short (and fixed) distance between the displays and eyes.

In any case, the main potential for profit will be in the software. Because the VR displays are useless if you can’t actually create the virtual world/scene. The first company who will be able to create an intuitive, easy-to-learn VR development suite will probably cash in big time.

VR is the sophisticated version, but CBI/ on-line learning can replace many human teaching functions at a lower cost and better convenience. Research reports out that there are no instructional benefits with CBI versus traditional, however, cost isn’t included. Cost is the big difference. I work in pubed and see CBI used with course recover or courses where students retake due to previous failure. What you won’t see is a state experiment whereby students use CBI instruction and traditional then take a state end of course exam. I suspect that the two groups would score similarly, thus making the case for the less costly method of CBI.

I have just finished reading a book: “History of the Schemita” by Davic Cahn. A very interesting book that goes into the reasons why, in his view, America is facing calamity.

Davis Cahn has tracked this phenomenon through thousands of years of history since acient Isreal was destroyed by the Assyrians. According to him, all recent stock market crashes; the Great Depression, 9/11, 7/7 in London etc have all occurred at the end of the seventh year of the Schemita on Elul 29 and Tishri 1. He also goes into American arrogance in building high towers (all started on and being brought down on Elul 29).

Elul and Tishri are months in the Hebrew calendar. According to him, Elul 29 falls on Sunday 13th September, 2015 in our calendar. Take it or leave it he expects something nasty and profound to happen at or about that time, though he does posit that he cannot be sure of the exact timing. By my understanding, the Schemita means a time of levelling and of wiping off all debts, a redistribution of wealth etc, and though it may not mean very much to most of us I’ll bet it means a lot to those who control the big banks and Wall Street. On our side of the pond, we have a saying that when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. Whether or not Davis Cahn is right in his assumptions, it is best to be aware!

I’m from the UK but moved to New Zealand in 2000. NZ’s OCR is 3.5%, ‘floating’ mortgage rates are around 6.75%. Yes, there have been some government cut backs, but the banks are paying interest. Most of our banks are off-shoots from Australian banks.
The future is looking a little worrying because we are selling less milk (the country survives on turning water into milk), timber exports are down, the high dollar is crippling our exporters (and has been doing so since 2008), but our real estate is booming – foreign buyers pricing locals out of the market.
But so far, the country seems to have escaped the worst of the GFC and its ripples. Anyone have a view on this and if / when Australia / New Zealand will be severely hit like the US and Europe?

It’s way past time to declare a peace and end to the war on cannabis, and the reprehensible conduct of criminalizing peaceful behaviors.

Decrim. is not enough, it must be RE-legalized, but it appears in most cases big money is the driver and determiner and without the $, nothing much happens.

Big money here in Ohio is driving a ballot initiative that will provide for ten large distributers to the legal cannabis market. Of course the big money can be traced to those named as the ten ‘kingpins’.

This ballot initiative is not a true market approach but the perfect cannot be allowed to be the enemy of serious improvement-ending cannabis prohibition.

Our local NORML chapter was able to persuade these folks to make two major adjustments to their proposal: a reduction of the cannabis tax rate (otherwise the black market remains) and allowing adults to home grow their own supply of cannabis.

Something not known yet is the broad long-term economic outcome of industrialization of hemp/cannabis.

Yeah, government control sucks, but why would that be a bar to welcoming something that might be a major job creator?

We all face such a LARGE fraud and attendant criminality which has taken root in so many countries and in so many sectors of society that it is natural to see the “tree” such as the so-called judicial system in the U.S. without grasping the larger picture.

The problem isn’t just the judicial system running hopelessly amok. It’s the fact that all these “governments” are actually nothing but privately owned and operated “governmental services corporations” being run by international banking cartels that have operated under conditions of secrecy and deceit to co-opt lawful government and instigate a vast web of fraud and criminality throughout the world.

It’s not just the Federal United States. It’s the “government” of the UK, CANADA, FRANCE, GERMANY, AUSTRALIA, JAPAN….. all fakes.

The truth has come out finally and conclusively. There are so many people to thank for that, it beggars description….but the rats have been fully and absolutely exposed. The criminality of the banking system has been fully documented by The Paradigm Project— Heather Tucci-Jaref and others. A few American lawyers remained true to the American cause and a few DOD employees did too, and they all did their actual jobs. As a result, the bankers are caught, dead in the water.

And the fraud is at an end, no longer something that can be suppressed and contained by filthy politicians and bankers meeting in secret.

The rats in DC are in a bad position, and more and more of them are realizing it. 177 nations worldwide have recognized that the “Federal United States” has acted as a criminal syndicate and that it has been operating in a form and in a way forbidden by its charter and the treaty and trust documents allowing its existence, that it has not faithfully “represented” the Continental United States and the American People, but has instead been misusing and abusing Americans at home and then also misusing American resources including Armed Forces as Bullies against other countries, fomenting war for profit, and engaging in every kind of vice and war profiteering in “target countries”.

While we Americans have been kept ignorant and clueless by the perpetrators of these fraud schemes (all of which are easily recognized classic bunko schemes merely executed on an unimaginably large scale) what I would most like to share with the rest of the world at this point is that the American People — the People of the Continental United States as opposed to some elements operating the Federal United States —-are good people, moral people, peace-loving, hard-working, God-fearing people. We were lied to, bullied, purposefully deceived, taxed to death, deprived of basic rights guaranteed by our actual Constitution, press-ganged into the international jurisdiction of the sea, and defrauded of our labor and our actual property assets. We suffered along with the rest of the world.

Those responsible include the Crown Corporation and its agencies and subsidiaries, the government of the Inner City of London aka WESTMINSTER, the Lord Mayor, the Lords of the Admiralty, the British Monarch dba ELIZABETH II, IMF, FEDERAL RESERVE, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, INC., and so on. Please note that the British Monarch is the American International Trustee on the High Seas and Inland Waterways and that all the abuse we have suffered and which the rest of the world has endured, too, has been caused by British mismanagement and war-mongering for profit.

The other thing I would like the world to know is that many American government officials, even members of Congress, were kept in the dark. This entire criminal scheme was designed to be operated by just a few at the top.

Finally, I would like the rest of the world to know that preliminary estimates indicate that only about 20% of the money appropriated to fund domestic American welfare relief ever made it to any poor people, and less than 2% of the money appropriated as foreign aid ever made it to the intended recipients in other countries.

The American People have been defrauded and had the lion’s share of their intended assistance to others at home and abroad siphoned off to fund criminal activities.

The facts are now speaking for themselves. Anyone who wants to argue with me or cast aspersions and suspicions at me as an individual should be advised— I am not here to prove anything to anyone and I am not the issue. The issue is the information. The facts. The timeline. The fraud. Everyone in receipt of the information has the basic tools necessary to research these matters for themselves and they are fully invited to perform their own due diligence.

Numerous people from around the world have been contacting me and asking for help related to their own governments. The basics of what we have learned (at least to our satisfaction) is that the System was introduced in England in 1867 by Benjamin D’israeli, with legislation resulting in the “enfranchisement” of English workers.

At the time, this was hailed as a good thing by English Labor Union leaders and other Progressives who were deceived into thinking that the “right to vote” was an advancement of the position of the working class. It was in fact a means of further and officially enslaving the working class by a process of registration.

If you look up the legal meaning of the word “registration” you will learn that anytime you register something you are giving it or some aspect of it up to the ownership or control of the entity keeping the registration. It is not the same as publicly recording an ownership interest in a piece of property, for example. Thus, when you “register to vote” you give up your natural right to elect your leaders and in effect hand your proxy to whomever cares to exercise it.

The word “enfranchisement” relates to this undisclosed registration process, too, in terms of “enfranchised voters”, but more darkly, it is used in the context of incorporation—- and that is what D’israeli aimed at with the Acts of Parliament involving Enfranchisement.

Think of large corporations that are operating in your various countries that have local franchises. In America, it might be McDonald’s or Dairy Queen or Sears. These corporate franchises are obligated to be pretty much in lock-step with their national and international parent corporations and they operate under franchise licenses.

Anytime you see the word “license” be aware that it is official permission to do something that would otherwise be illegal— in this case, the franchises receive the license to use the name, logo, recipes, products, etc., of the franchising corporation.

What does it mean to “enfranchise” a human being, in this sense of “enfranchisement”?

It means to reduce you to an incorporated thing, a subsidiary subject to the whims of corporate management. It means enslavement, body and soul. In supposedly equitable exchange you receive the benefit of voting for your slave masters and whatever privileges they give you, the right to be taxed and regulated to death, the right to be conscripted, the right to pay for a million dollar life insurance policy with the parent corporation named as your beneficiary, and so many other “benefits” it hardly pays to name them.

This is what we have been dealing with. Thanks to Benjamin D’israeli and a besotted Queen Victoria.

It also means that the banks, the Bar Associations, the Lords of the Admiralty and the Lord Mayor and the Queen engaged in a systematic program of press-ganging land assets into the international jurisdiction of the sea. This crime has been outlawed—utterly outlawed worldwide— for 200 years. It carries the death penalty and they did it anyway, using a pathetic excuse.

Once they had “converted” all the living people and their estate interests into franchises of the various governmental services corporations, they could claim that they were justified in their actions because there is no law against enslaving a corporation.

In actual practice and fact, of course, t
hey did enslave the living people and all their private property assets. This is how they were able to enforce “Selective Service” and other forms of “The Draft” during the Second World War. This is how they have been able to spend uncontrollably and rack up huge amounts of odious debt against the civilian populace.

By registering your birth, seizing control of your name, and creating all sorts of corporate franchises benefiting their own corporations named after you— they–the bankers and lawyers and politicians effectively stole your identity and your credit cards.

Now we come to the issue of Odious Debt. Odious Debt is debt created by fraud of which the victims are unaware and from which they do not benefit. Much of the so-called “National Debts” around the world are this form of debt, and Odious Debt is not collectable.

It has to be written off and forgiven. This is what is behind Pope Francis’s declaration of an International Year of Jubilee beginning December 8, 2015.

Beyond that, we also come to the issue of National Credit. All these fiat money systems have been operated as debt-credit systems. Every time you create a debt in such a system you also create a credit. Therefore, every National Debt is counterbalanced by a National Credit. Why have you never heard about your National Credit, only your National Debt?

Because the perpetrators fully intended to leave the working people holding the bag while they siphoned off and absconded with not only the National Credit owed, but the underlying actual physical assets as well.

They won’t be able to do that now, because now you know the truth about “National Debts” and how those National Debts were accrued by credit fraud, and you also know that you are owed an equal National Credit.

Finally, everyone worldwide needs a lesson in the mechanisms of fraudulent convertible debt. A fraudulent convertible debt is a debt created by fraud that is converted into new ownership and used by the perpetrators as investment capital. The most typical example is the billing you receive every month for electrical service (at least in America this is true).

What appears to be a bill comes addressed to YOUR NAME in capital letters and your address. Unknown to you, this “billing statement” isn’t really a true bill and it isn’t addressed to you. It is addressed to a franchise of a governmental services corporation and the “statement” is actually a voucher allowing you to cash in a “dividend” equal to the amount shown as due and owing– but of course, you are never told this and you are never told how to fill out the coupon for credit. Instead, if you don’t submit payment you are threatened with disconnection, and in this way, you are coerced into paying the bills of a governmental services corporation’s franchise.

Of course, the utility company submits the bill each month directly to the “government” and gets paid for servicing the franchise. That’s payment Number One. Then they send you a billing statement and coerce you to pay it. That’s payment Number Two. They establish a “capital credits account” in YOUR name and deposit your payment in that account. They then use that money as investment capital benefiting their utility company and prevent you from accessing the capital credit account you funded. In some cases, the utilities are so crooked they set the “capital credits” aside and later claim that they are “unclaimed funds” and abscond with them directly.

Fraudulent convertible debt always involves a double-dipping system in which a charge gets paid for twice by different parties. In effect, it gets you, the consumer, both coming and going. You are on the hook to pay for the “government’s debts” — so as a group you paid for payment Number One, and as an individual you were forced to provide payment Number Two as well.

The same exact system of fraudulent convertible debt is used throughout the mortgage industry. When you create a mortgage, it is never credited to you— it is registered in YOUR NAME— as being owned by a government franchise operated under your name, but not belonging to you. Remember that the governmental services corporation is the owner of YOUR NAME, which is the incorporated franchise they are running for their own benefit under your name without your knowledge or consent.

So you walk in to close what you are told is a loan being made to you, and what happens? The bank takes your Promissory Note, which has Actual Cash Value, just like a stack of bank notes, and they cash it. That’s payment Number One, charged off against “the government”, which of course passes the entire cost back to you and your brethren in the form of taxation. Then the bankers come back under false pretense that they actually loaned you something, and demand that you pay them back principal and interest for thirty years and claim that you also owe them a security interest in your property (which you gave them, albeit under conditions of fraud and deceit and non-disclosure) which they can foreclose upon if you fail to perform. That’s payment Number Two—so, in effect, the banks charge you once, then charge you twice, plus interest, plus a security interest that is undeserved—and you fund all of it. You fund the first payment through your taxes to the “government” and you fund the second through more of your labor “donated” to the account of YOUR NAME and what really, did you receive?

You received access to credit in a bank account held in YOUR NAME, but not actually belonging to you, and you spent that credit on a home and property that is recorded in YOUR NAME but which doesn’t actually belong to you, either. Both the purported debt and the property belong to the governmental services corporation’s franchise. You are just an unpaid volunteer, doing all the work and producing all the credit to fund these operations, for the benefit of the franchise.

It’s more usury, only this time, owing to the interest payments and security interest, it’s more like quadruple dipping than double dipping.

And all this blatant fraud based on semantic deceits and coercion and racketeering and deceptively similar names has gone on under the noses of all those you trusted to regulate banking and securities, precisely because the banks were running the “governmental services corporations” behind the scenes and were “regulating themselves”.

So what is the answer? Other than becoming aware yourself, spread the word. There will be too many of us for them to silence and once people know what went on, they will be stuck for it.

And what to do about replacing these criminal enterprises masquerading as governments? Well, we all know how our governments are supposed to be operated and by whom, and for most of us, that means we have to get involved.

The Americans are busy restoring their actual government on the land jurisdiction of the Continental United States. It’s our understanding that Mrs. Merkel is doing her best in Germany and that numerous other heads of state are grappling with the facts and trying to bring remedy without bloodshed or disruption. Help them. We are informing the members of Congress that they have been elected to private corporate offices instead of public offices which they are meant to serve and that this has been accomplished by fraud and deceit. They have to choose their true allegiance and accept their true elected office in order to serve and represent the interests of the Continental United States as deputies and fiduciary officers—-and they otherwise have no capability to enter into any valid contract in our behalf or claim to represent anyone but themselves and their own little group of cronies.

Meantime back home we are occupying the vacated public offices we are owed and we are operating our state and county governments as judges, sheriffs, bailiffs, clerks, legislators, and many other public offices under American Common Law.

Action is moving forward on an international basis to end the criminality, expose the fraud, and bring relief. Please keep yo
ur minds and hearts fixed upon what is good and right and just, and realize that the vast majority of the people who have been employed by these corporations have been innocent of the evil they have unwittingly done. Even many lawyers and judges are completely unaware that they were doing anything wrong. To echo Jesus Christ, “Forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

—-although they are going to learn very shortly, and be offered a choice!

In closing, I would like to paraphrase King George V — “Keep calm and get even.” Don’t give way to rage or violence of any kind. Realize that your grievances have been fully documented and proven and that the Mills of God grind slowly but exceedingly fine. Those who are truly guilty cannot escape, those who have acted in error must be forgiven, and the innocent who have suffered will in the end by blessed by their own patience and kindness.

Batman is a fantasy, and New York is certainly no Gotham. With all due respect to Trends what Gerald does best is outline what one can see before their eyes if they simply trust their own instincts. I knew for about 30 years that something is wrong. Why was the 50’s and 60’s so special to my parent’s generation. Why is it the 80’s were special to mine. Was it because it was our youth and are last bit of innocent lost to time? Depends on one’s perspective and what is the so called new norm. There is always a new norm and it’s the rich getting richer, the poor getting poorer. Those caught in the middle it’s feast or phanom.

While many rights, and freedoms have certainly grown over the course of our lifetimes, just as many are being taken away if not more. How many have heard the good old days of what a dollar would buy you? It’s all about market research and how much the top can squeeze out of you without making you feel like you’re broke. These low interest rates are the latest tool in their tool box and it’s been going on for some time now.

But as clever as these people are and aware on top, they often miscalculate. Eventually all it takes is a major issue, and it comes crashing down. What is left of the real economy is in life support. When the plug is finally pulled on it better not be too distracted watching old reruns of Batman or the newest Marvel magic coming to a big screen near you. It’s great to pretend that they control everything at the top. But it’s a train that is out of control, it just hasn’t left the rails yet. But it will crash, not if but when.

How amusingly morbid. It sort of reminded me of Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, where human bodies were industrially recycled for phosphorus and other materials.

But when when you look at it at the face value, it is just nonsense. Humans waste much more resources elsewhere. For example, did you know that we waste about ONE HALF of all food produced in so-called Western world?

http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2013/jan/10/half-world-food-waste

That amounts to about 2 billion tons every year! Compared to that, a few millions tons of concrete for burial are nothing.

The mass immigration will lead to mass civil disruption all over the EU with race wars and disorder. The social infrastructure within the EU cannot cope and the future is bleak. Who are these ‘refugees’ ? Yes many fleeing horrific situations caused by those named above. But many with diseases,many with terrorist links many with criminal gang backgrounds adding to the chaos coming our way in Europe.

While The march for peace is a good and necessary step that will impress the outside world, it will have little impact on US war policy. Let us remember what General Alexander Haig had to comment about Occupy Wall Street ” they can march all they want as long as they pay their taxes”.
What would make a difference in the cultural and critical dimensions of the American psyche is a march to contest the legitimacy of the presidential campaign that is stage managed by the high and mighty who own all the horses of the race track while the voters are making their bets on the the different stooges for the sake of that illusionary change that will never materialise.
What would make a difference is to teach the voter either to boycott the election or better to vote blank or none of the above. This will send the message to the establishment that the voters will not be taken for fools the way it happens in every presidential freak show. What would be more relevant in this context is to demand a voting procedure where the voters cast their vote on a paper and where the papers are tallied in the presence of all the representatives of the political parties who would attest to the soundness of the count in each polling station. This will prevent any fraudulent manipulation of the electronically tallied votes.

So…the “labor economist” is assumed to be skewing results based on his politics, yet the information from the Foundation for a Drug-Free World is accepted at face value?

I wonder what this Foundation for a Drug Free World has to say about all the psychotropic drug prescriptions handed out to those that subsequently committed mass killings?

Or all that other chemical pharmaceutical crap passed out by doctors like Halloween candy? and does the foundation rail about truly harmful drugs such as alcohol and tobacco and how about the drug of sports and entertainment?

Whether or not whatever claims of harm caused by cannabis turn out to be accurate or not, the notion that cannabis use is criminal while tobacco and alcohol use is just alright is a major absurdity.

It is not heroin or cocaine that makes one an addict, it is the need to escape from a harsh reality. There are more television addicts, more baseball and football addicts, more movie addicts, and certainly more alcohol addicts in this country than there are narcotics addicts.
-Shirley Chisholm

I think the cannabis community is due a break (from persecution, prosecution, incarceration), let’s focus on what drives a society to embrace and even beg for safety and security through the waging of perpetual warfare against what often turn out to be phantom menaces…and what drives this madness surely is not cannabis use.

Life is not without risks. It should be our *choice* to assume and accept the risks of our chosen activities. It is infantile to criminalize cannabis while motorcycle street riding, auto racing, mountain climbing, etc., remain acceptable forms of harm.

What did the War on Drugs bring us since it intensified under former President Richard Nixon?

While the listed results are true, missing from the list is the most critical casualty: the destruction of Rule of Law and the Bill of Rights.

The drug war fueled the militarization of police as well as ever more brutal police behavior against all citizens.

The drug war demonstrated the ability of gov’t to mislead people and agitate people into pasting the ‘enemy’ label upon fellow citizens who happen to choose to live as they see fit…in the land of Liberty.

The major negative consequences of drugs are direct results of drug prohibition rather than people taking drugs. Until the drugs were made illegal the problems were dealt with in a mostly peaceable manor.

Just as with alcohol prohibition, prohibition of drugs merely drives the drug market underground and sparks the violence that usually accompanies black markets.

The violence is not due to use of drugs, but to the criminalization of drugs.

Another major issue is the massive governmental corruption made possible by the illegalization of *some* drugs.

I dunno but, we built tree houses as kids for fun and that was all kid stuff with sleeping out, camping, fishing and general Tom Sawyering about…might be that some missed that phase of life and want another stab at it? Living in a shoe or a tree fort on wheels seems KraZy to me 🙂

Excellent written and well tied together. No one in their right mind would deny the growing Police State and with it, the growing brutality.

The latest concern beyond the rising outcries and violence that we all witness in Baltimore for example, is the push for a “Federal Police Force” with, surprise…Baltimore’s Mayor elect to head it up. I guess all of her failure there in her own city qualifies her for the New Czarist position among the other made up Czar’s occupying Washington’s Regime, eh?

Thank you Celente and Dr. Paul Craig Roberts(great man with much honor) for telling us what is really behind the curtain.

These EMF and the poison that they are dumping on us daily in the name of climate change are making us dump down, and very sick. Until these causes are removed, we will be living with a brain dead body. May God help us.

Jung, Two Essays on Analytical Psychology – Taken from Aryeh’s site – Very cool to note Jung speaks of againg too and the primal nature of the second half of life, perhaps primal isn’t the ‘best term’, but to be brief, a man expands in the day of his life, and should focus his energy on contracting once his life, according to Jung, has reached the ‘high noon of it’s day’ – that’s my phrasing, the point stands!

Great commentary . Find a better way to deal with your life challenges America . To live with the aid and guidance of your own personal sensitivity is a worthy path . And the richness of sobriety is truly huge , although it is harder to obtain than a drink , a smoke or toke . I told my children that , from my own personal experience , if you wanted to do something of worth in your life , that it was better not to be too involved with the pot . I gave them the example of India , homeland of the ganja , where a very few of the wealthy upper cast , held sway for thousands of years over the millions of the lower cast masses held tightly in their places . Ganja was part of the formula to keep it that way .
To all the pot lovers out there . I got one question for ya , is it good enough ?

Hi Gerald,
I read Margret Mead book, written about 1920 on the island of Samoa,in the south pacific,about primitive happy people,and i got very impressed how they lived,compared to us in civilization,so anyway if she said we can change the world i certainly will help to give it a try,First get America back on the constitution to follow,as like the book “Target Switzerland”,where we are supposed to be a sister republic,they were a democracy since the year 1281,and i certainly trying now,like we have 2nd amendment right,we must uphold that.I am of the older people born 1933,grew up in the “Bronx”NY,and saw what had happen to this country and hate that.So a few of us can and should do it,as i am a very strict constitution person,my way of thinking,believing in it,and a big supporter for gun rights,like the Swiss,we have a rifle in all of our homes.They are given a rifle to take home after serving in the Swiss Army,That’s the only way to secure our liberty,and freedom,make them look down our barrel,pointed at them,we mean business.

Those who continue to support cannabis prohibition are increasingly a social, and therefore a *political* minority. This is because the benefits (like anti-cancer properties; google `antineoplastic cannabis` and the first result will be a taxpayer-funded NIDA study PERFORMED IN 1974 showing pot reduced tumor growth) far outweigh any supposed negative effects…as the people replacing those who (ignorantly) favored prohibition know well.

Seeing as most polls are showing the majority of the electorate supports cannabis being legal once more, and that this support is solid amongst Millenials, it might be wiser to concentrate the Institute`s efforts on divining cannabis`s future economic value and what that means to the subscribers than to give known prohibition-supporting groups credibility, when they have none amongst the very people they sought to indoctrinate, the now-grown `children` they are always yelling about. These now-adults are not listening to those prohibs anymore: too many lies were told by the Just-Say-No crowd.

Most of the anti-cannabis groups are funded with government grants (while they are also receiving funds from groups whose `rice bowls` are threatened by legalization, like the alcohol and profit-prison industries). So they use taxpayer money against the very citizens who want cannabis legal again. And lie to accomplish this. Is that what the Institute wishes to ally itself with?

I worked with a branch of the Australia government to help with psychological issues in remote communities in Australia.
One such community was know for it use of marijuana. Many of the individuals I worked with had been using marijuana for 10-20 years. I have also worked with many alcoholics in farming communities. The amount of depression, nerve damage reflected in their hands, reports of a total lack of motivation to participate in life was significantly higher than in non marijuana communities. The children also lacked the playful nature you would expect. This was not due to economic
inequity as most individuals owned their homes and the schools were well funded. As a result of these experiences I
suggest the marijuana only be used for medical purses. This is not a drug that will promote a productive and successful society. Dr. DMH

Many years ago when I was a young man , I bought 2 of Donald Trumps books . He was my role model proving that with the proper education , knowledge and work ethic , it is possible to succeed. Yes , his father was successful in real estate and was wealthy , therefore Donald had a foot in the door. Other children of wealthy families will put in minimal effort and squander their inheritance. I remember years ago when New York City w3as trying to renovate / restore an Ice Skating rink in Central Park , it dragged on for a couple of years with little accomplished . The Donald offered to take over and finished the project in record time .
Yes at times he can be pompous and arrogant …..BUT …..no matter what , he has a proven track record whereas most politicians are little more than pompous arrogant B.S. artists , their smooth talk and promises console the dumbed down lumpen masses. As has been proven for years on end now , it makes no difference which party is in control , Tweedly Dee or Tweedly Dumb , both are bought and paid for by the ” White Shoe Boys ” Both parties sold out for 30 Silver Shekels . Time for a radical change , a revolutionary change therefore we have nothing to lose by giving Trump a chance to prove his mettle. The only other potential Savior of this country would have been Rep. Ron Paul , a true Patriot

Back in 1986, I was in the same Command Course at Ft. Benning with Gen. Clark’s son. At the time, everyone knew, that most son’s of Generals would make it to the top, even if they were incompetent; so it is (un)written, so it is. In the military, it’s not how good you are or how well you can lead or manage troops, it’s all about who you know or who your parents are/were. Sad to hear about these stupid remarks from a retired general. It makes me sick, but that’s how our military has evolved. Even after spending trillion’s of dollars on our “war fighting machine,” we haven’t even remotely made the world a better place to live. Instead…we have only made it exceedingly worse!

We should bring all of our troops back from around the world and start taking care of our own country and the people our leaders have taken an oath to uphold. What an idiot!

Obama has renewed the state of emergency that came with George Busch in 2001. What few in America realise is that the U.S. demanded that Syria abolish its state df emergency after 9/11 to get the Middle East to heal from a military mind set. Syria is facing a mortal danger from an expansionist Israel. So what is the danger facing the United States government on the internal front? Is it the elite’s fear that the people might have had enough of this sorry state of constant fear mongering? After all remember Obama’s ” change you can believe in” and how he was going to close down Guantanamo and ask for an constitutional amendment that holds presidents responsible to their campaign promises.

“We still expect one of two exotic hydrogen technologies to tease the general public later this year: either Andrea Rossi and his Energy Catalyzer or BlackLight Power. Both companies have been quiet of late — Rossi uncharacteristically so, and BlackLight even more than usual. Rossi’s silence may be a result of lessons learned after promising major events that weren’t delivered; BlackLight could be finalizing a business plan that may begin with a public demonstration this fall.”

Haha, good one! They only need to change the laws of physics and then they will roll! Seriously, both “inventors” behind these companies have been full of shit for more than 15 years now. Lofty promises, but no real and independently verifiable results. One doesn’t need to be a nuclear scientist to see through the bullshit – hydrogen is THE most abundant element in the universe and is also THE most frequently observed one. If the nuclear processes those “inventors” claim existed, they would have been observed decades ago. Their “technologies” are nothing more than a long con for people with deep pockets and shallow brains. Oh well, just another way to make some easy money, I guess.

At this point in time, it is more than prudent to have set up a “backup system” to the grid with solar panels, battery bank and all as well as petro fuel generators. As I see it, it’s not so much about the rising costs of the grid, but an issue more of reliability and emergency self sufficiency in face of deteriorating infrastructures GC has pointed out several times thru the Tends Institute. Think for yourself is an excellent motto, especially in face of the psychos and their promoting death culture of the upside down backwards illogical logic as they obviously are raising the stakes of escalating wars.

As if that weren’t plenty enough reason to have “backup” energy systems in place, reflecting upon recent storms like Katrina in the states and of the global manipulated weather programs causing havoc, one would have to be blind not to see the writing on the wall…

I live in Australia and have a solar system. I save very little because of the way the power companies have it structured. Do one offers battery packs which I would love to have. My system produces 45 kilowatts per day and still pay 300 a month for electricity and there is no way to keep track of it on my meter box. If you know where to buy these battery packs, let me know. It all seems like a good idea but the reality is not there.

@ ava,

R U sure that U are producing 45 thousand watts?

You would have to have a huge commercial type solar array as a set up that would power up your neighborhood….could it be that you only produce 45 watts, which is why you pay the grid 300/month? U see, one normal panel of about 2ft x 4 ft apprx. produces 100 watts. So, for 45 thousand watts you would need at least 45 solar panels of this type which could easily take up a half acre of real estate depending on the set up on that.

Now, the “battery pack” is simply a system of solar energy holding cells or a bank of batteries. There are various set ups to utilize to store all of that solar energy produced depending on one’s own personal needs etc. Batteries are already for sale everywhere batteries are sold although you need to be sure you get the ones designed for solar power use. Probably the best bet for you would be to get in touch with any number of solar system companies located in Australia.

I hope to hear back on the above to clear up a few concerns and possible solutions you may have realized as a result. Thanx.

They’ve all filed proposals with the CPUC that would implement a painful combination of unfair fees essentially punishing people for installing solar, and lower utility bill credits that would not fairly compensate rooftop solar customers for the valuable solar power they deliver to the grid.

Amtrak get gov’t funding but they keep reducing it so it is hard for them to do anything. The dining car may have to go they say. So if you want a fun and very relaxing travel experience, give it a try. They also have a deal where you can stop up to 8 places in 15 days for around $450 but you have to plan it in advance. Any train, anywhere. That will be my next trip because I am retiring end of year (just took a Co. buyout offer!)

Best thing I’ve found is regular active to intense daily exercise at least 2x a day, old fashioned foods including cooked and raw veggies, minimal sweets, and key supplements vit C (in form of magnesium ascorbate) and D (5-8000 IU/day).

Malfunctioning electrical signals. Hmm. Maybe their battery needs replaced. Seriously, it’s all about electricity. Did you know pH is nothing more than measurement of electrical charge? Cells need to be in a certain pH to function properly and reproduce new healthy cells? See work of Dr Jerry Tennant at tennantinstitute.com
And remember PCB toxins? They are used in large capacitors for insulation. What happens when that gets in your cells? How about mercury? Roundup? etc etc. Also there is research showing how cells “lose” their identity because of poor communication with surrounding cells. Why? LOW VITAMIN D! Vitamin D is used for this. (not just for strong bones!) Major conspiracy to keep vit D benefits suppressed. Note your skin in the sun for ~1/2 hr makes over 10,000 IU of vit D! And the “Institute of Medicine” say you need only 400 daily? (more research needed!!!!) Also Linus Pauling is proven right by Mayo- vit C DOES stop cancer cells in large quantities in the blood. Also low vit C is mainly responsible for plaques which is a low grade scurvy. Vit C needed for collagen formation and repair. Published by Dr Pauling- they had to because he was a double Nobel Prize winner. But nobody else published it. No money in it. See vitamincfoundation.org. Note story about alternative health doctors mysteriously dying. Setting an example. Don’t cross the drug companies and AMA.

There is no need. The research has already been done by Dr. Bob Beck.

http://www.cancertutor.com/bob-beck/

If these people come to the same conclusion as Dr. Beck, they will probably end up dead too. Dr. Beck spent 30.000 dollars doing his research. It will not be published, not be peer reviewed and he “fell from the stairs” and died.

There are actual patents for this technology, so please do look into this if you are interested in curing cancer. All information in this PDF: http://www.cancertutor.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/BobBeckPaper.pdf

Is there any peace movement that is specifically targeting the millenniums or younger children… they are our future and in the public schools they are implementing communistic/socialistic values… a counter to these nefarious agendas a peace loving Constitutional movement should start too. Children are very vulnerable while in the formative stages of development and these values must be instilled and reinforced by some group who realizes its importance.

My late sister was a quad, due to a car wreck. She did manage to regain enough use of her arms and hands to be able to run her electric wheelchair, write to some extent, and with hand controls, drove her own van. She also held down a job with the city of Tucson, until her death in 2002, due to a house fire at night, where she and her paraplegic husband could not get out, and died of smoke inhalation.
If she were around today, she would be the first in line in try new technology such as this. Of that, there is no doubt!

He forgot to mention the major downside to all this: greater possibility of instability and blackouts. When you have a lot of smaller generators whose power output is essentially random (because the weather is random), you have much higher volatility in the transmission network. And when several negative factors (randomly) add up, the network can become overloaded. In order for this to work properly, much better power monitoring and control is needed – which will be a problem in USA, because its power transmissions are antiquated.

What could really help is a historic revisionism that sheds light on the flimsy pretexts that led to the Spanish American War under Ted Roosevelt, the entry of America in WWI under Wlson and the entry in WWII under FDR. It is a central issue to teach Americans how the USA turned from prosperity and real growth under isolationism to total indebtness and economic decline under imperial policies, without forgetting to focus on the total erosion of individual liberties that accompanied the transformation of America from one of the freest societies in the world to a virtual police state.

When one only sees the sound bytes on the major networks we become brainwashed by the drums of war banging louder and louder. We become fearful and grab onto any knee jerk reaction that helps to curb our fears. Thre is also herd mentality that kicks in. Case in point – when the photo of the dead child was publicized the world jumped on the band wagon of taking in refugee families. That was moving in th right direction until Paris was attacked. The herd switched direction in the blink of an eye and the poor refugee was now seen as a terrorist. People like Donald Trump began saying Bomb them ! And voila – we are on the oath to war. The truth is, in my humble opinion, is that the real problem is that the Ametican Empire is running out of gas. The Petro – dollar is failing and the US debt is I repayable. The only way to keep the whole charade moving along is to keep the war machine cranked up and make sure no one sells oil for other than US currency. If there was no oil in Iraq, Libyia or Syria, do you think the US would give a rats ass what goes on in those countries. Because of US intervention these countries are destabilized and anger against the US is becoming global. You won’t hear about peace because peace would be the downfall of the US Empire. I wish I had an answer to the problem but I don’t . The only thing I can do is be responsible for my own beliefs and actions. I chose Peace – I abhor war or any violence for that matter. Violence in any form never solved anything – ever ! I believe in the Occupy Peace movement but it will need to be formed by one thinking person at a time. This great movement will eventually gather momentum once people begin to realize that knee jerk reactions will only kick us in the ass and wars only make those who build war machines richer. In the end war is all about greed, exploitation and aggression.

What do you see coming in general for the real estate prices and the commercial real estate in Europe and the USA? Has the peak been in 2015?

I agree with and see this trend and fear it, but the jihadist movement started long before the war on terror did. I am certainly tired of war, but I am also tired of people blaming the U.S. for all of the evil in the world. Terrorism is a real problem and it won’t go away if we just ignore it. It will continue to grow and someday we will have to confront it. Doesn’t it make sense that we reduce the causes? We can disagree on the causes and on the solutions, but to do nothing will not solve the mounting problems. British philosopher Edmund Burke said “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” So for those who just criticize the current actions, and I agree many are very stupid and ill conceived, must offer a better solution. And just playing nice in the sandbox is not enough. Doing nothing against Hitler and waiting too long to take action allowed him to grow in strength and power, leading to more deaths.

So, he is getting standing ovations on his solution at least temporary in calling to stop the flow of the “wave” of Muslims at least until the criminals in Washington can figure it out…to me that rings true and necessary due to the actual wars being waged by the insane in Washington against innocents, however, that is not what we hear on it by the brainwashed and the brainwashers such as the freaks at MSNBC, CNN, Lady Lyndsay Grahm Crackers, Hitlery, Insane McCain and others who are calling Trump a racist un-American and worse…have a listen:

When I was born, we (U.S.) overthrew a democratically elected secular leader in Iran and imposed a brutal dictator (for oil).

When I was a young man a generation later, this led to a counter-overthrow sourced by the only institution that a dictator can’t completely crack down on in a faith-valued society (the clergy). The religious fervor then unleashed reached neighboring Afghanistan prompting the Soviets to militarily support the secular government there in order to keep the Islamic fervor away from their own nearby largely Muslim-populated regions. To weaken the Soviets the US aided the Islamists who took on the Soviets by arming both their local (Taliban) and foreign Jihadist fighters who flocked there to assist them (Al Qaeda).

When I become of middle-age the same Jihadists, in a mass casualty attack (9.11), turned on their ex-supporters who had in in the meantime themselves, like the Soviets, set up military bases in Islamic lands (Saudi Arabia). In response the US invaded Afghanistan and like the Soviets got bogged down trying to hold up a secular government while fighting off the Islamists. The US also invaded Iraq which has massive untapped energy fields which gave birth to a Sunni resistance force which over time morphed from Al Quaeda in Iraq to ISIS in Iraq and Syria. To weaken Russia economically (by bringing gas to the EU from Qatar thru Syria) the US and allies supported ISIS assaults against the Syrian State which has long been backed by Russia and thus had refused the US‘s oil pipping plans to cripple Russia’s finances.

Now I am older, and again Russia is militarily backing a secular client state (Syria) against the onslaught of the Sunni Wahhabi Jihadists unleashed by the US, fearing the migration of Jihadi fever to its own large Muslim hinterland. But this time, with NATO troops and ABMs on its border and the no-first-strike doctrine repudiated by the US (Bush), Russia is not only also fighting to preserve its economic lifeline which are the energy receipts from EU, but its military red-lines as well.

If the US doesn’t wake up and change its Jihadist creating-leveraging-fighting ways in its pursuit of resource control for coexistence-eliminating hegemony, than I and all are indeed destined to go out with a Bang.

When the British empire plundered and raped the world of its resources and low-paid 3rd world labour.

Hi Kitty.Lami….hope this is useful to you. I am from the Investment industry, hence i can shed some very insightful details on that question. Global real estate has peaked as of Sept/Oct 2015. The U.S. peaked in 2007, with the mortgage crisis that led to the credit crisis in 2008/2009. The recovery you saw in the US was only in the high-end property. That was because alot of foreign capital was moving into the U.S. high-end property. Similarly, it was foreign capital that drove property prices up in Canada and Australia. Ultimately all real estate globally peaked between 3Q and 4Q of 2015. After this we are going to witness a massive drop in property prices globally. We are in a deflationary mode going forward. Some countries will have a protracted real estate slump. U.S. is one of those countries. We are likely to see the U.S. real estate market bottom around 2029 – 2033. Thats a long way out. We will see some price recovery, but with each crisis the prices will slump lower. Developed Europe is in a similar situation.Hence Eu nations need to exit the EU to recover completely. So any sooner recovery can only come from EU countries that exit the EU and implement proper monetary and fiscal plans. This might be far and few between, but lets see what the future holds.

That picture speaks of the insanity going on where the people’s voices are all ignored. The war planes did head for Syria despite the overwhelming majority against such actions…interestingly, this occurred right after what many surmise as another false flag in France on Friday the 13th…further, these war planes are not coordinating with Syria or Russia who is invited to help rid the pestilence of all invading terrorists there, which makes the other war machines entering sovereign Syria ILLEGAL according to many national and international laws. No surprise there.
Guess who the targets were of these invading illegal sorties into Syria were? Yup, Syrian National Forces, not the terrorists of any stripe…Russia apparently exposed the hypocrisy and the lies once again as they have been doing all along. It’s a good thing, in my estimation, that they didn’t use the S-400’s to shoot down the invading terrorists going by the NATO blue flag because that probably would have been enough of an excuse for the NATO Terrorists to go all out with a World War action.

Russia is using the latest stupidity of NATO war mongering terrorists to expose them to the whole world, again:

Melvinsmith. You have to think outside the box that entraps the minds of most people in Amerika and the west. This box is the product of the military-industrial-media complex that is bent on dumbing down the population to buy into all kind of stories about Islamic terrorism when almost all acts of senseless violence is the result of false flags designed by the power elite who see peace and prosperity to all as a menace to their power.
The British Empire nurtured Islamic terrorism since the midn18th century all the way until today in order to use it for its imperial aims. The Moslem Brotherhood started as a British intelligence tool after the demise of the Ottoman Empire that was split between the French and the British. The so called ISIS is another false flag at the service of the Western powers and Israel. The people who are paying the highest price for this machination are the people of the Middle East whose shattered lives will lead them into despair and more radicalization.
Just remember how prosperous and free the U.S. was under isolationism with a growing economy and sound finances and real freedom and contrast this with what is going on today. Militarism is the root cause of the decline of America and Gerald Celente is one of a dying breed of American heroes who dare stand up it.

The lack of adequately trained workers is a problem. I have interviewed several recent college graduate candidates that spent tens of thousands on an education from good institutions. Some did not know that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Then when you hire someone, they expect a high salary, but when you need them to produce, they are on their phones texting. Ask a recent college graduate to draft a business letter and you may be shocked at what you receive. So, my point is that these people invested in themselves and know nothing, why should I invest in them and expect different results? It is not worth the effort which limits growth.

Yeah, well, I’ll believe the fairytales about upkeep savings when I see them. Because so far, the batteries are the most expensive component in electric cars. And they age and lose their capacity pretty quickly, even in normal personal cars. In trucks, the batteries will experience far worse wear and tear, because trucks will draw much higher currents and they’re also operated longer (almost 24/7 in some cases). So unless Tesla invented some miraculous batteries (and managed to actually produce them!) in the meantime, this is just a puff piece. Computer-controlled drivetrain to optimize fuel efficiency is also hardly anything new, I’ve seen that in Volvo trucks more than 15 years ago.

Great! I’m all for smaller appliances and household necessities in smaller homes. Now if the furniture manufacturers would just get onboard the trend with more compact furniture – sofas, chairs, etc., maybe I could get some to fit into my intentionally small-designed home.

Mankind is stupid. They who assume that the government of the USA has dominance in the killing fields of the world underestimate the resolve of President Putin. Putin whether you like the notion or not is a very intelligent man who understands the times we live in. Psychopaths would be the only sub-humans that would stand in agreement that a war with Russia is winnable. It is not.
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article42890.htm

My take on this dire situation is that America will start the war to end all wars. The results will be the annihilation of the USA and the rest of the world. My reasoning is as such:
1) The American people are so dumbed down that they chose a political party and not a candidate. They are the good Germans from years past. Stupid and beset by political opinions over facts.
2) Immigration. The war with immigrants within the borders of the USA is but a short distance off. Remember the story of the “Tower of Babylon’? The split didn’t come from the hand from some god, but by wars between tribes who spoke different tongues. The game of dominance was played out. Remember, man is an animal. In America we are the most primitive and ignorant of men. This is not a design flaw but a purposful action that will allow the elites to dominate over the dumb and dumber. It has taken decades for this accomplishment by the Rockefeller family, Carnegie family, and other with their education monetary contributions that had strings attached.

3) This may have all have happened before. There is evidence of ancient cities that turned to glass. It sure the hell wasn’t from the hot sun. Man never learns. He just repeats the same goddamned mistakes because he is inherently stupid!

I could say so much more but I fear I would lose you folks who find life here, as I, turning into a police state with unreal economic woos, corruption everywhere, and the lack of personal credibility and integrity such a depressing fact that you begin to lament life itself.

This is a very interesting article. This very subject was published in the Edge section of the PM Network magazine. The purpose of the article is to showcase the Boutique Boom and state that these types of projects require more upfront planning, which equals more upfront costs to determine customer needs. The article did indicate that the boutique hotels feature a smaller space and, in some cases, desks that double as night stands to save space. The end of the article stated that the average boutique room was about half the cost of the regular room. I doubt that one will be paying half the price for these smaller rooms. As an ex-frequent traveler, I want a hotel room that is clean and comfortable with a workspace. Location is, of course, pretty important as well. Anyway here are the numbers as reported in the article: Marriott plans to open 150 Moxy hotels by year 2020. 50+ AC boutique hotels Marriot plans to open by 2018. 76.8% rate of boutique rooms booked in the first three quarters of 2015 compared to 67.1% non-boutique.

I think of this concept the same as I do with the open office concept. Office planners state that an open office results in greater productivity through collaboration. In my humble opinion this is myth and the opposite is true (not in all cases, unique product introduction may benefit). I think the real motivation for both of these concepts is money. Corporations can save by not subdividing office space into offices or buying cubical walls; hotels can charge the same price for a hotel room that costs half the price to build with more rooms occupying the same space as a traditional hotel.

And the biggest drug problems in Western society are legal opiates and amphetamines. The doctors always try and addict people with chronic pain to these opium derivatives; codeine, morphine, endone and oxycomtin. These derivatives do far more damage to society than the crude opium; they turn people into zombies and hardly treat the pain any better than alcohol or acetaminophen/paracetamol.

And let’s say you want to boycott the medical industrial complex and grow a plant not only eliminates the pain; but reduces inflammation better than any man made anti-inflammatory out there, and kills bacteria all at the same time. You get a SWAT team at your door, because how dare you not buy spend every dollar you have on their crap?

Then we have ritallin, adderall, and all the other amphetamine crap we put children on, because politically correct, common core propaganda education is more boring sober than watching grass grow. And if you’re a foster child in the US, they put you on as many drugs as possible to make more money.

So if we have to have a war on drugs, how about we have a war on prescription drugs!

The German press has reported that the border between the west and Russia has now been stuffed with enough military equipment and manpower to rival the buildup that took place prior to Hitler’s invasion of the country. It is quite clear that the neocons can’t wait to go to war with Russia and they are working on going to war with China as well.

The first question to answer is: how have their plans for the Middle East worked out so far? Why would a war against Russia which has a highly trained and well supplied military that will be fighting for the motherland be any more successful?

Then, where does the west get the troops to fight a land war? They would immediately have to institute a draft. A ‘Greetings” letter from their draft board would surely perk up the interest of folks living in their parent’s basements. The Pentagon estimates that 7 in 10 people of draft age are unfit for this or that reason to serve in the military. That cuts down on the available pool by quite a bit so they will have to institute other measures to get warm bodies. A 10 week training course to get to basic trigger puller status and then some additional training for your military occupational specialty. So we are talking 5 to 6 months before the first group is ready to go to the eastern front. The Europeans are in even worse shape.

By the Pentagon’s own war games estimates, it will take the Russians about 2 weeks to roll over most of eastern Europe and arrive at the heart of the western European frontier which is usually defined as the border with Germany.

All of this raises the question of what will the US do when it becomes clear that the Russians have the ability to just keep on rolling. NATO’S stated answer to that question is they will use tactical and theater nukes to slow the Russians down but both sides are equipped to operate in a radioactive theater so it is not clear what that will do except to kill tens if not hundreds of thousands of civilians and make a good chunk of easter European real estate glow in the dark, so to speak. The US has recently transferred 23 theater nukes into Germany which is strictly against German law but who cares about that anymore.

As J said, the public is gullible, ill informed and doesn’t care until it is too late.

The author has left out some key parts of this innovation:
Due to the stop/start nature of trucks, delivery vehicles and busses, their fuel usage is exceptionally high compared to passenger cars so any efficiency savings are multiple times high when applied to trucks. Also the vast majority of trucks are more than 10 years old and have diesel motors that emit high levels of particulate matter that damages our lungs/cause cancer (this has been proven in Europe).

Replacing/overhauling a trucks motor at the end of life (EOL) is expensive and usually does not stack up against buying a new truck. This is wasteful. The Wrighspeed systems are designed to be retrofitted into old trucks which eliminate the need to scrap a whole truck. The systems are a similar cost compared to replacing a piston engine and require little ongoing maintenance as there is only one moving part, the turbine, which has air bearings so wear is minimal anyway.

Their systems work by replacing the traditional piston motor with an air bearing turbine engine, acting as a generator for the electric battery pack (similar to Toyota Prius) – there is no mechanical link between wheels and turbine, its fully electric in that sense but with the benefit of not having to charge batteries with a plug or need huge batteries to get decent mileage. When the battery is depleted the turbine turns on at a fixed rate to charge the battery. Very efficient use of fuel, so much so it can burn diesel and not require any additional exhaust treatment equipment. Its also super quiet compared the best diesel trucks coming from Europe. As with all electric motors maximum torque is almost instantaneous.

Recap; cheaper (and getting cheaper), lighter, easier to drive and cleaner. It’s an amazing achievement.

TheSceptic, Your knowledge of batteries is a bit out of date and not so applicable to hybrid drive systems. Hybrid NiMH batteries do not have the cycling problems some other chemistries have. They are typically not depleted past 30% charge nor are they charged to 100%. A charge controller keeps a close watch on the charge state and temperature. Hybrid batteries can last a very long time. When they do fail it’s typically just a single cell that needs replacement and they are not that expensive.

An employer is looking to hire a person that will be productive enough to pay for the employees salary and make additional profit for the employer. No one runs a business to lose money.

If the potential employee doesn’t understand this or is not knowledgeable about business, who will hire him. This “looking for a job” with your new degree is worthless if one cannot add to the success of the business.

We are in a terrible depression, hidden somewhat by disability checks, but a depression non the less. There is not a lot of extra profit to take a chance on an employee that does not “get it.”

Be advised that starting a business is expensive, risky and likely to fail – especially in a depression. The government stands ready to “take from you” if somehow you do nave some success.

@ricklafford: like I wrote, trucks are not ordinary passanger cars. They are much heavier and thus they will also draw much higher currents from the batteries – which is incidentally very bad for battery lifetime. And these current spikes will occur much more frequently than in a passanger car, too. Weaker cells will degrade faster because of that. Just because Toyota Prius batteries can last 7 years or more doesn’t mean they will do so in a truck.

The possibility of individual cell replacement is not so clear either (yet), because the battery is supposed to be liquid cooled, so it needs to be watertight, including all the connections between the cells. If a turbine will be used as power source to replenish the batteries, it also needs to be refurbished regularly, just ask anyone who has owned a car with a turbocharged engine.

But like I said, I’ll just wait and see.

The threat of a military build up at the Russia border is complete madness, my God, Russia just clobbered the War Monger neck chopper Hoards out of Syria and is no threat except to the war mongers they just eliminated. Normal thinking minds know that now peace once again will return as before with the promise for the people to also return and to rebuild in their homeland of Syria. Russia should be rightfully awarded the Peace Prize while ObomBa need surrender his unearned prize over to Putin. As usual, the NWO freaks fools liars and thieves present everything 180 degrees polar opposite of reality…

I have to say, Trump is the only candidate who could become the worlds most powerful political influence in the world who is the only one calling for sanity at the borders to seal up the illegal “wave” crisis while simultaneously calling to find out what is causing the hell on earth…he is the only one calling to end the albatross organizations of The United Nations, NATO and other NGO’s who do nothing to intervene. He too is the only one calling to end many of the hundreds of US military bases around the globe while at the same time making America’s military stronger with a more lean defensive force.

The Presstitutes are not publishing the truth of the situation at the Russian border and certainly not of Trumps major strategy to reverse the War Monger mentality, which will have the side benefit to balance out the national debt in less than 8 years….wonder why?

@TheSceptic: the turbine generator (this is not a turbo piston engine, think mini/simplified jet plane engine) has only one moving part running at an optimum single speed, as well as air bearings. The maintenance schedule for the turbine is significantly less than a typical diesel piston engine.

The battery packs are getting better and cheaper every year as evidenced by Tesla releasing a $US35k car over the weekend that has a range of +200miles, with an 8 year unlimited mile warranty (in the past 4 days 200k people have put down a deposit for one, sight unseen and not available for the better part of 3 years). This was thought impossible only 4-5 years ago. Your comments around battery performance is out of date; the development curve has proven to be very steep for battery development (getting closer to Mohr’s law in silicon chip year on year performance & cost improvements).

The underlining trend is a shift away from traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and fossil fuels. The economics now stack up.

low interest rates are killers of retired folks who hoped to live off the interest from their savings. The Government is doing its best along with the Feds to kill off old folks. First very little return on savings and then the Government says sorry Grandma and Grandpa but there’s no inflation so we can’t give you any Social Security increase this year. They can’t really because the governments been taking a chunk of what isn’t there and putting it into a greater numbeer of folks on the SS disability list. Many of them got on when the recession hit and their unemployment benefits ran out. they found a shady lawyer who had their own doctors and for a fee was able to declare individual were disabled and couldn’t work so they were put on the list. Obama didn’t care, afterall anyone dependant on the government usually votes Democrat. So as another year rolls along, interest rates remain low and old folks are not seen working the registers at Wallmart and other low paying places.

I am happy to see that we are in agreement as to our prediction of the 2016 Presidential election. Personally I have correctly predicted every twist and turn in this election cycle. Knowing that you are completely non partisan, I was curious to see if your conclusions were in alignment with mine.

There are several factors which are very significant. Bit the most powerful are these: Many people think that this is just another typical election cycle and want to apply comparisons from the past on this atypical election. They are going to miss the mark by doing this.

There is a denial by the entrenched as to the amount and strength of the justified anger of the voters who have been betrayed time and again by the politicians in power.

But the biggest factor of all is the loss of credibility of the entrenched criminal politicians, the corrupt banksters and the wall street mob, and the presstitutes in the MSM.

Because they have lost credibility, none of their standard manipulations are working. Fewer believe their propaganda, many question their poll numbers, and they have crossed a threshold where they have lied so much in the past, that no one will believe them even if they desperately try to tell the truth for a change.

They are a one trick pony and the one trick does not work any more. And there is nothing they can do to fix it. They can not go back in time and change what they have already done. The word toast comes to mind.

It is the reason that every attack against Trump backfires. With out a doubt, this is the most interesting election cycle I have seen in my 70 years.

No one can know the future, but my prediction is that it will be a battle between Trump and Clinton. I predict Trump will win, not in a landslide, but in an avalanche.

This is not a new idea; it can also be done on other rivers throughout Southern California that flow to the sea. The only problem is that the government in California only serves special interests, and cares not at all for the quality of life of the average citizen. The government corruption is at third world levels at this point.

In our country of 320 Million people, clean water should never be a problem. If your priority is war, than infrastructure and clean water are not important UNTIL the contamination begins to damage children and kill people.

All of these systems are “ticking time bombs,” which simply get worse and worse nearing disaster every day. In NY metro, pipes collapse almost daily, and the city water system managers are corrupt and hiding the reality. I bet they drink bottled water, but where does this “magic” water come from? Usually from the contaminated water systems in question. Purchase your own quality water filtration system!

Great article. While the sacrifices made by soldiers in war are truly admirable one does get the feeling politicians generals etc use these commemorative events to bolster their own egos, budgets and support for their aggressive foreign policies (of our allies anyway). This is a far cry from what many of those who served in the two world wars would want, which is to remember their comrades.

Stick to your first thought; the plan is to have a third party…a “likeable Republican” that will hand over the White House to Hillary – she is the SELECTION and they are selected, not elected.

In other words, someone will run, that is bought and paid for and will take votes from Trump and not Hildebeast, thus putting Pedohile Bill as the First “man-boy”. Take that to the bank, for as Mark Twain said “If voting made a difference, then they wouldn’t let us do it”. – end

Not only is Killary unqualified to be elected to any city council, she is also unqualified to even reach the status of dog catcher. If there is a “War on Women” going on, it’s Killary’s war against Bill’s women. She has only one factor that enables her to even consider running for President, and that’s the fact that her married name is Clinton.

Trendpost in this article says “But the VR revolution will be one void of the essential balance between science, art and humanity.” I’m not so sure about this. Many world-renowned artist don’t paint with brushes and canvas anymore, they do it purely digitally. Even Anthony Freda does his art digitally. If anything, the digitial revolution made it possible to many more people try their hand at painting, because it is much easier (and cheaper) than the traditional way. There are websites full of such homemade art, see deviantart.com for example. It can be expected that sooner or later, there will be true VR artists, too. Likewise, VR can be helpful for science and technology, provided there will be software tools that will be able to use VR effectively.

ANZAC day is a far lower key affair in New Zealand. After the morning Dawn Services, the day is treated as just a day off work. After the ghastly loss of life suffered in WWI & II, we scaled down the numbers of service men we were sending to foreign conflicts. In Vietnam we only sent professional soldiers, no conscripts.

Anzac day is a solemn occasion to grieve the fallen and console the returned servicemen and women..Given 10% of the male population of Australia was killed or wounded in the first world war it was a pretty big catastrophe for a country of our small size at that time there wouldn’t have been a town touched by death…Anything to do with populism of war is frowned upon on the Anzac day ceremonies I have attended…Even most politicians get this from what I have seen of the ceremonies…It should never however be a national day it is only a day of respecting the fallen however stupid the war may have been…

No one mentions this, but I think it is really significant – Hillary Clinton served on the board of directors of Walmart for 6 years. A company that is anti-union, out-sources everything it can to China, locks it’s employees in the building at night, and has driven small mom and pop businesses into bankruptcy all across America. She did not ever try to change Walmart’s business model while she was in this high powered position. Now we are to believe that she cares about the little guy.

Every public or private organization, especially our government leaders should incorporate 6 Core Values, when making any law, code, regulation, or policy!

Desiring a good “Quality of Life!” An opportunity to “GROW” (Growth) into their full potential! To be “Equal” (Equality) as all others as they were created! To,have “Empathy,” “Compassion,” and a “Love of Humanity!”

The Turks kicked some serious Austrialian and British butt, killing thousands and wounding many thousands more! To what end? And they celebrate this action? Amazing! We, as a society, will never learn lessons from our past. Leaders need to start helping each other and work together for the people they are suppose to serve! Wouldn’t it be nice, if a country such as Israel helped their neighbors in the Gaza Strip, instead of fighting with them and visa versa? Hamas would need to stop their aggression also for this to happen and that of course is unlikely. It’s worth the effort, to try diligently! World leaders could ban together and help to make it happen! Our UN is broke! We should be fighting for peace and not for war! Just saying…

How does this kind of plan help those who are already in retirement with only SS. and no savings? This is not a “fix” for that. Ultimately they will be taking money, once again, from the poor and middle class to support the program. What if the government “borrows” the money like they did to the SS Trust Fund? They will pervert the idea and the poor will get poorer and the rich will get richer. “And so it goes.”

SR:

Ashton: Imagine for a moment superannuation was optional – how many people would voluntarily pay it? Once you’ve drawn down on that money for a multitude of legitimate reasons at the time, all of a sudden the 30 year old is turning 50 and realises that time goes fast and they have no savings.

Compulsory Superannuation is not a perfect system. If you are paying superannuation then you are making a contribution beyond your employers contribution. In Australia employers pay the contribution. It appears on your pay advice so you can see how your salary is being apportioned. You never really had it to spend.

I’m a lot closer to retirement than you Ashton, I don’t have a lot of super but what I have wouldn’t exist if I had access to it. It’s meant having to work harder to pay for the unexpected bills but the long term benefits far out way the short term solutions.

There is no mistake in the name “Uber”-as in “Uber Alles” from Nazi Germany. Uber and Google, and realtime tracking built into all new vehicles sold in the US are removing our freedom to travel how and where we want to go at the time we want to go. Crimes on the Uber and Lyft systems are growing, and will provide a tremendous opportunity for individual predators with political excuses. The larger crime is the sacrifice of our privacy, but after having gone to a ridiculous conference in California, I’ve begun to see that even the baby boomers love to play the game of “movie star” in public, and consent to a total privacy invasion if it gives them a sense of belonging.

-EHydrinos combined with highly oxygenated matter would form the basis of batteries the size of a briefcase to drive your car 1000 miles at highway speeds on a single charge, without gasoline.

-EOne type of hydrino combined with an acid would produce incredibly powerful explosives or rocket propellants.

-EHydrino and metal compounds make for super-strong coatings, some of which could make ships rustproof, dramatically reducing crew complements.

I have to echo chiro85 and Ashton on this one. There are so many problems with this idea, ranging from adding more levels of unnecessary beurocracy which must be funded to encouraging bad fiscal responsibility. If volentary, then it is basically no different then a private service, so that’s fine if its self-funded. But seriously, who would trust bankrupt institutions with a long legacy of rapidly acting to rip people off?

Lets not forget that there are two theories for pensions: funded and unfunded Almost all start as funded when set up and is litterally what is described above, a forced savings program. They all move to become unfunded tax-based once the government “borrows” all of the money so the money you saved your whole life is gone.

Again, if voluntary and self funded then fine, but history shows govs. tend to expand and make mandatory.

Excellent piece of written work,,Gerald! As a retired Army officer, I’m continuously saddened by the actions of our so-called “leaders!” They are neither leaders or managers in any sense of the two words. All Army personnel are required to take many leadership and management classes during a career. Even a corporal understands how to lead and manage. Why are our politicians not required to learn how to lead. One can be decent at leading, but poor at managing or vice versa…maybe even, not good at either, such as our government officials. It would be interesting, if all our politicians were given a series of leadership tests…how many would fail them? Not just “paper” tests, but hands on…in the field tests! I’m guessing (would bet), 95% would fail miserably and for sure, our POTUS!

Wouldn’t it have been nice, to have had A presidential candidate, that grew up in a blue collar family, that understood, how to “serve” everyone! It comes down to our war machine and keeping all the major corporations fed. Once the money stops flowing, a recession begins. There should be a way to hold politicians accountable for their actions…to include stealing the truth! A life term in prison should be mandatory!

I met the late Dr.Hank Swain, professor of pharmacology at the University of Michigan, back in 1970. He was looking for a non-addicting pain killer way back then. The studies involving cobra venom and peptides from box jellyfish and sea snake venom all showed great promise. Dr.Swain must be spinning in his grave to realize that not only were his studies defunded but we’re replaced by the long acting super opioids that we are now awash in. Big Pharma rules the day. After all, poppies are cheap and create their own market.The merry-go-round from chronic pain to opioid addiction to one-step recovery centers at Malibu Cliffs are all part and parcel of one huge racket of legal dope pushers whose bottom line is: “The bottom line.”

You have to understand that to significantly limit the radiated RF power, you have to change the entire cell phone infrastructure.

@nag: ah yes, the “active EMF protection devices”. I still have to see ONE physically sound explanation how they manage to cancel out RF radiation in the entire room, especially when the “protector” has no way of knowning how will the magnitude and phase of the incoming RF waves change in the next nanosecond. Oh well, just another scam for people with shallow brains, deep pockets and/or non-existent health issues like “Electromagnetic hypersensitivity”. Just one of the examples:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjxcgQF0t_w

Now don’t take me wrong, I believe current everyday RF levels ARE harmful. Current exposure limits in the so-called developed world are 100 times higher that Soviet Union had, for example. Then the big corporations came into Russia with their shiny new cell phones and the limits had to go.

And you CAN eliminate RF fields in your room or house. But it inolves installing rather expensive shielding materials inside all your walls and windows. Naturally, something like that is much harder to sell than sexy-looking gizmo you can plug in yourself…

You started with nothing but your brain and talent, and created something of enormous value for all of us! Success is rarely defined by the amount of money you make.

His family is a great indicator of is character. Can you imagine Cruz, Rubio or Bush in the battle for our freedom against the Clinton machine?

@nag & @Thesceptic I recently bought an RF meter and I hope that if you have 800 to drop on one of those blueshield devices you picked up the 100 EMF reader from amazon. You can test if these things work. The tin foil hat idea isn’t so far-fetched… Well maybe for your head it is. Wrap a cell phone in tin foil, the signal goes dead.

I brought my EMF reader to a doctor’s office where hippies regularly state, “the energy is so good here.” Little did they know that they are getting dosed with 3x the standard of EMF expose because of a transformer that is located at the side of the building.

I think it’s worth keeping in mind but like @TheSceptic said to shield your home is way pricey OR move out to the country.

After 14 years of experience in electromagnetic compliance for medical instruments, I have to agree with those who can’t see this Blushield thing (active cancellation) working very well. The device would have to be able to read and adjust output to a myriad of frequencies from different sources, and the spectrum analyzers I’ve used to do this cost around $250,000.00. It’s one thing to assume there will be 2.64 gHz & up all around us, but those signal strengths vary with passing cars, movement of the client, proximity to smart meters, transformers, bug zappers, hair dryers, and cell phone towers…anything with a static field you move through, or a changing field from a moving device.

I’m sorry to see people wasting money on things like “diodes” you wear around your neck to “Orgone”-based products that are a mix of paraffin, steel wool, newspaper, and honey (or whatever). I do appreciate that people are becoming more aware of the harmful effects of sustained, narrow band EMFs, but I’m worried that people will INCREASE their exposures because they buy a protective device that they think works, without doing any research on the matter. I’ve done research on shielding (I worked in the field and often had to recommend solutions to reduce conducted and radiated emissions, as well as solutions for hardening devices to make them less susceptible). There ARE some less expensive ways to shield a space, and you could certainly create an EMF “safe space” around your bed for about $40.00.

Really, as long as a cell phone is transmitting, it will never be a “clean” phone, but there are pocket shields, and as long as you reduce your exposure to under 15 minutes a day, it probably won’t hurt you. Bluetooth ear devices are NOT the answer because you have a transmitter right next to your brain for extended amounts of time.

There are several videos by Barrie Trower on YouTube. He explains the effects very clearly, and has tremendous concerns about pregnant women having really bad consequences from too much exposure. Take this stuff SERIOUSLY people.

I spent 8 years in an orphanage when I was a little boy. My father died when I was 2 years old and I was the youngest of four children. Back there there wasn’t any food stamps or wic programs or welfare so My Mom put us in a Catholic orpahanage called St.Francis.The bernadine sisters ran the place and back then they had big paddles to wack you with for most any reason they felt like using it on us. When I was 9 or 10 and old enough to be left at home when my mother was working at the clothing mill she worked as a fore lady, She took us all out of that orphanage. Having said all of this and how I too had a poor start, I also support the Trump. And have you seen the recent polls after Trump went to Mexico and gave his Immigration speech. He’s beating Hillary now on the Rasmussen poll and gaining ground in others. Nobodys perfect, and Hillary belongs in prison so why not do a slam on her. I know the liberals will try to steal the election again so instead of siding with the Bushes and Romneys of the world, try to picture a country being led by a dingbat named Hillary who’s more crooked then a bent nail. Oh and how nice it was today watching on Fox an old State of the Union address by then President Bill Clinton. His rant then was about all the illegals running around this country and how we had to secure the borders. He talked about increasing the border patrol and much more.

I am sure no one can give an adequate estimation of someone’s life experiences either. It’s impossible task, since you would actually need to be that other person. Even the way how someone’s hair is done or of what colour it is should make or give no serious, deep or broad enough subject to judge anyone. This, again, is connected with experiences (most probably with the empathy, too), the experiences in (e.g. my personal) long-term interactions with other people. I mean – one can always be caught by (positive) surprise! Anyway, if Donald gets his chance and makes it to the presidency, and I hope he will (since Jill Stein, for example, never “had” a chance, I’m afraid …), in this case I also hope he’ll manage to implement at least some of his “infamous” or “heretical” (towards the “other” establishment etc.) promises. Perhaps it’s time for America to get her president (after a while?) that is spoiled in completely different way… I wish you all well and send you friendly regards from Melania-land, J. 😉 (And please – do not take me for being biased in any way because of that! (…))

I am shocked at this article. My father was sent to Riverside Military Academy when he was 14 years old because his parents divorced and when he was 18 years old he went into the army and fought in WWII. Riverside Military Academy spent the winters in Hollywood, Florida where I grew up. We knew many of the “River Rats”. Some were sent there for disciple and some were sent because their because of tradition. Many who graduated went on to very successful careers. Some did not. Military Academy is not easy because it is run just just like the military. I cannot believe anybody would disparage anyone who went to a military academy as if it smacked of “easy street’.

Trump took a few million dollars and made it into a few Billion dollars and a worldwide industry. His name is also an industry in and of itself. That took work and lots of it. Moreover, building hotels and other business in other countries is not easy. Most countries do not have clear and distinct business rules as the United States.

I know a lot of people who took a few millions and lost it all. I can think of one person who took #300 million and lost it all. Although it is true that inheriting a few millions dollars helps but it is no guarantee of success. Trump should be proud of his accomplishments especially his greatest accomplishment — his kids.

This article smacks of sour grapes and a greater arrogance than that which is claimed of Trump.

During the American “Great Depression” of the 1930’s the infrastructure rebuild projects across the country were one bright spot whose real efforts invested carried on with positive dividends throughout the subsequent decades.

President Trump is a proponent of rebuilding the US 3rd world crumbling infrastructure from A to Z and really, there is no other choice and the rebuild dollar based on our current virtual rigged markets today is at best voodoo economics. Also, I have not heard of any Obozo’s infamous “shovel ready” projects ever materializing even as conditions grew worse although at least 6 Trillion dollars were diverted instead into the money pit of the ongoing wars…I don’t think Trump ran on that backwards platform at all, contrarily.

How one begins to speak peace, what do we say, how is it expressed. Is it some thing that we have to learn, is it a discipline, is it a way of knowing , a way of speaking, a way of being.

We know a lot about conflicts and wars, it is taught in military universities as a discipline it has a its own domain of conversation. It can be spoken with professional terms, it can be heard.

IBM’s Watson is the best Artificial Intelligence in the world. IBM has spent the last 10 years, turning around Big Blue. Taking profits from their old businesss and putting into Watson, they are way ahead of their competition in AI. Watson has cost IBM around $3 Billion bucks and has been worth every penny. The same is true for GE, producing an amazing smart platform, that allows machines to talk to each other. With new GE infused smart planes, any potential problem with an engine or other parts of the plane will be immediately addressed.

The company that makes the best (by far) tiny smart sensors, which allow IoT and AI to work is an older company called STMicroelectronics (SMT). They produce billions of these sensors per year for industry across the planet. IoT will be a $19 Trillion sector by 2022 and these are just 3 of the companies that will skyrocket as technology grows.

Robots – I have been watching this trend for several years and see it as a double edged sword. We already have 95 million people out of the work force and increasingly robots are eliminating even more. I suspect that like all innovation when this one reaches a critical point it will gain more speed and displace even more workers. I keep reading that long haul truck drivers will be hit hard sooner than later.
These are and were workers who paid into my social security and retirement systems. While I fully understand that both systems are ponzi schemes I am not eager to lose what small retirement that I now have. Getting too old to start living under a bridge unless it becomes absolutely necessary.
How are all the bright bulbs in DC proposing to deal with this fast approaching problem? Have you seen any hint that they are even aware of this impending debacle or even care?

So we are beyond George Orwell’s ‘1984’an Aldous Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’. That this trend is not raising hell over the heads of government officials and their puppet masters in the matrix of control is testimony to the total insouciance and lethargy of the public, be it Baby Boomers or Millenials. A world without some minimal privacy is hardly a free world. Welcome to the Big Brother tyranny!

Honestly, this is far too optimistic view. Or at least when it comes to gaming, VR was reportedly one of the biggest sales losers this year:

And it’s hardly surprising; I mean, have you actually tried some of the current VR headsets? Jagged picture, motion lag, unresolved air circulation around the eyes… they feel more like head-ache and eye-sore generators than entertainment. Such issues will be resolved in time, but it will take more than 1 year. Remember that VR was supposed to be a big thing in the late 90s, but it failed badly.

Open the flood gates. Governments with no limits on creation of digital money will grow unabated and unrestrained. Seems to me this will be the major cause of Point #2: Economic Disaster. My grandfather used to carry a 1898 Morgan Silver Dollar in his pocket and occasionally when people talked of money he would throw it on the table, which created a resounding thud, and say that’s real money. Most people looked at him as if he were crazy. I now have that same silver dollar and treasure it for the monetary value and the lesson he taught me.
However, I agree with Gerald’s trend prediction. There will be no limit to the control that government has over society when they eliminate money or the favors that can be doled out to special people.

In the U.S.A. there exist many minorities … numbering in the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE … who daily function in BLACK MARKETS using unreported cash transactions. For some, this activity using cash is voluntary. For others, it is simply an involuntary necessity: i.e., to use cash in order to survive. For the impoverished latter, cash is like water, food, rent, and air.

In particular, a few current American, Mexican, and Colombian CASH USERS are participants in illegal American industries like SELLING ILLICIT DRUGS, PROSTITUTION, URBAN WASTE COLLECTION, and GAMBLING which require cash money. THIS IS NOT CREDIT CARD BUSINESS! This reality truly complicates the societal mega-plans of brilliant intellectuals like Kenneth Rogoff. Why so? It is because principal actors in illegal American unregulated and THRIVING BILLON DOLLAR INDUSTRIES will not take kindly to Harvard Professor Kenneth Rogoff’s plans to end CASH transactions … and direct their lives! In the past, Dr. Rogoff may have worked with digital criminals operating central banks and the IMF. He is not bulletproof. Organized crime families employ HIT MEN TEAMS … who together with organizations like the CIA … take DIRECT ACTION against trouble makers. Professor Kenneth Rogoff is such an intellectual … who is definitely a king-sized, first class Harvard intellectual, trouble maker. He’s even bigger than one time President Jack Kennedy once was.

Meanwhile, consider that in major American cities there live many innocent minorities (e.g., poor Afro-Americans, Irish, Italians, illegal immigrants, etc.) who can not possibly SURVIVE for 30 days without using CASH. These humans do not have credit cards, debit cards, bank accounts, or even simple email or physical addresses! These outsiders would not be at all happy with Professor Rogoff’s cashless society scheme. However hard Dr. Rogoff tried in large American ghettos, his “hopefully and benevolent” cashless schemes for CENTRAL PLANNING and CONTROL … would threaten and infuriate millions of DISADVANTAGED PEOPLE. THEY WOULD BE MADDER THAN HELL … AND THEY WOULD LOSE IT FAST.

The IVY LEAGUE has produced neocons who wish to start WWIII. They are missing something simple: THE END OF THE WORLD and ISRAEL, too! Now comes a scheme to end cash money in society … so that WISE MEN LIKE KENNETH ROGOFF CAN DIRECT OTHER PEOPLE’S LIVES. Sadly, this is no joke.

I wonder whether a big bank going belly up and millions of people’s account balances vaporizing, way beyond the ability of FDIC to cover, would help slow this trend. Or perhaps an EMP event that wiped out a bunch of digital-only records. My biggest issue is that I don’t trust the banks or the government to have my assets there when I need them, more so even than the privacy aspect. That’s why I have a quantity of physical gold and silver as well as a few month’s cash needs. I’ll try to push back and use cash for most of my smaller transactions, until I can’t.

Trump is a successful businessman. He sees and he will hire people who see things not in a political way, but in a business way. A business only exists to make a profit.

According to constitution, the Federal government exists to protect and enforce the Constitution and Bill of Rights. It simply got so far our of control, that the idiots in charge assumed it was always going to be the same. I guess 30 or 40 Trillion of debt is OK, and almost 100 million people cannot find full time work is also OK. DUH! We Americans almost “lost it all.”

A representative government will not work with out term limits and a careful watching of each representative.

Nostalgia for the past good times is not a bad thing, and yes, it is distorted by time in our memories. However, the opportunities for the individual citizen were enormous. In relative terms, education was much cheaper, but possible to pay for in “net” dollars from a paycheck. There were many that did not take advantage of the opportunities, and did well in the short term with the help of a good economy and the unions.

That all faded away, and no one in government cared, as they were doing quite well, thank you! Bribes, payoffs and kickbacks were the order for career government employees. Oh well, it now all comes to an end. It is amazing to me that none of these people see the enormity of their egos and stupidity. I am flying in economy class, trying to sell my machines, paying taxes and working very hard, while the government employees are flying first class on my tax dollars!

GERALD – This is your opportunity! Create a web page similar to the Drudge Report, and provide links to the stories you tell us about on the daily Trends in the News. You do the business and financial areas, and let Drudge do the normal news. Many of the publications you tell us about, no one even knows about. Drudge makes good money with it, and so can you. I think you can hire a college kid to simply place the links on the web page. This would also allow us to read the full article as opposed to putting pressure on you for a fast summary.

Charlie – You are correct. But, is it not a dream from the past that the robots and automation do most of the work, so that the citizens can concentrate on arts, music, new technology, better health, better education, safer and cheaper transportation, farming,etc.? With these new technologies and a global market, there is so much to do, so many opportunities for everyone.

I got a Computer Science degree using “punch cards,” and I can still write a program in COBOL if I had to. But, knowledge is knowledge, and don’t underestimate what can be done, even in “retirement.”

We have to restructure our society so that “faster, better and cheaper” benefit the citizens, not the big corporations. Innovation does not come from big corporations, but rather from entrepreneurs with good educations, good talents and the use of these powerful new tools that will provide products and services directly to the end user on a global basis. Let the robots do the work, and let me read the classics and listen to Billy Holiday!

Again, you run up against the teachers unions, who will never change a thing even though our educational system went Globally from # 1 to number #27!

There is so much to learn and so little time! You missed Gerald point. His point is that new technology provides fast and efficient means of educating everyone, whether VR or Internet or I Pads! But, if the teachers goal is to get fatter salaries and pension rather than truly move into new learning technology, then nothing will happen.

However, sooner or later, someone will create and evolve a “new technology” school, and will be able to “blow away” the old unionized school system, in the same way Amazon blew away the old Sears and Roebuck. Who ever pulls this off, and demonstrates this success on competitive testing basis, will be very, very rich and this can all be sold on a global basis. Ignorance is everywhere!

Great story and disturbing as well.

I am 50 plus years old and just went to see my eye doctor for a routine visit. My eyes changed a little, but he made an odd statement “out of the blue”; he said “you have the healthiest eyes I have seen in the past two weeks”.

The place I go has a steady stream of patients. This article made me wonder. I take the eye supplements and do not use a smart phone and rarely use my flip phone. My computer time is “too much” imo, but since I cannot type; I often look away from the screen to see the keyboard and I enlarge the page when reading articles; so perhaps these things help.

I always thought that looking at all the small fonts was going to be an issue; particularly or young people. When I grew up there was only a fraction of the people today that wore corrective lenses.

Having a military industrial complex infatuated with monitoring everyone’s business and forcing American tech companies to accommodate them with software and hardware adjustments doesn’t help. No government on the planet wants US tech if there is a decent option. Might as well transmit all your classified information directly to the CIA. And the CIA is only too happy to pass on any information that gives corporate America an edge. Corporations outside the US don’t want to use American tech if they can help it either.

Well, at least I can say we live in very interesting times and this very moment can and most probably will be a very important breakpoint in history (in one, a positive for society, or the other, negative for society, way). It all depends on few things though. On one side there’s so called “4th Estate” and a rising question, what this seemingly pretty heavily wounded beast will do, for its masters, of course, not for its own survival! We have to bear in mind this beast has only been half “domesticated”, or – perhaps we should better say – it has been, gradually, over the years and last decades even more so, intentionally made half-wild again! In any case one has to be aware this beast is still on a leash of their owners and most importantly – those owners have their master(s), too! On the other side there are the masses, the audience. If they don’t pay the attention and react immediately, resolutely and accordingly, the big game or at least one very critical part of it will be soon over! The severity level of particular situation in the USA as well as globally can simply be assessed by solely studying the actions of certain mediating parties (e.g CIA et al.) that are trying to help the wounded beast, not with bandages, but with short effective high-energy potion, and to lead it somehow and for every price out of the ring’s corner, so to say. (…)

P.S.: Few days ago I read the story (didn’t finish yet!) about Myron C. Fagan and the message he had delivered back in 1967. Here’s the audio recording and also the transcript of his speech (with additional comments etc.). I highly recommend!

While the new trend of imposing on companies a sense of social responsibility, we do caution from having the United Nations Organisation involve itself in such an effort. The U.N. was created as a tool of global dominance by the world elite of globalists and should have its power curtailed rather than reinforced. The best way to instill a social consciousness into the corporate world is to have an emerging world power provide an alternative to the current American corporate system that is based solely on shareholder value and is totally dissociated from social responsibility. Such an endeavor should be based on the control of finance as a tool of industrial development rather than the current system of profiteering by high level financiers and corporate CEO’s at the expense of workers and society in general. A legal framework should be put into effect so the government could mediate between corporations and labour.

I can’t speak from a medical nor scientific point of view but my own experience with smoking pot in my past was that it intensified any pain or soreness I had prior to using it many fold. Although it was great for anxiety I stopped it’s use due to the pain intensification. Aside from that, it certainly does not mix well with study or any cerebral activity, in other words ones brain is a useless blob incapable of very much while using it. My worry is that if it is legalized for anything other than medicinal use, we will have a society of idiots, particularly while working, driving or the need to think quickly. Also, many people will seek it with the excuse of medicinal need while just using it for the high. Considering the problems every society has with alcohol use, do we really need another substance to create another one? My point of view, my experience, nothing more.

The lies and Propaganda for the shaping of public opinion = Fake News

Funny how the Fake News are now trying to use the word “Alternate Facts” to deride the rising angst against the obvious BeeEss they peddle.

“Alternative Facts” are actually facts that present an alternative to what the media is piping out. For example, the lying leftist media said Trump moved the MLK bust. The FACT that he did not is an “alternative fact”.

The Fake News media is constantly attacking Trump and reaffirming their crazed echo chamber in a growing failing attempt to bolster the twisted opposition narrative.

I live in The Netherlands, and marijuana here has been legal for years. To my experience,
Dutch people are extremely productive and creative.

Compare to foreigners Dutch people smoke much less weed,
I worked and studied side by side with them and they are awesome!

I think you are wrong Grego1, legalizing weed will not affect the productivity of society.

“In the immediate aftermath of WWII, the German state of Bavaria wrote a constitution stating that all economic activity should serve the common good. This was a direct response to the fascism that triggered the war.”
This social stance in the Bavarian constitution is not a “direct response to fascism” but validates and defends the actions of the NSDAP in Germany. Point # 10 of the party Program reads: “The activities of the individual may not clash with the interests of the whole but must proceed within the framework of the German community and be for the general good.” Concerning the socio-economic direction and overall vision of the NSDAP, Adolph Hitler prints The Program’s two main points in leaded type: ‘The Common Interest Before Self, the Spirit of the Program’. Point two reads: ‘Abolition of the Thralldom of Interest, the core of German National Socialism.’ The Program concludes: “once these two points are achieved, it means a victory over the approaching universalist ordering of society.”
When Hitler came to power in 1933, there were 7 million unemployed Germans, the highest per capita rate in Europe at the time. In only his first year in office, just under half of that number were helped back to work. One of Hitler’s many innovative ideas included the building of motorways spanning the length and breadth of Germany, with housing units provided for workers. The workers families would then eagerly spend the newly earned wages, contributing to a fast-growing economy. Priority was given to the health and fitness of the nation, especially the youth. The world’s first anti-smoking campaigns are also introduced. Free healthcare and generous financial support were provided for expectant mothers (see Point # 21 of Party Program). Hitler is the first in Europe to introduce the 40 hour work week, with extra pay for overtime. German workers, subsidized by the government, would take holidays abroad. Industrial factories were now required to provide workers with restrooms and a cafeteria. With the establishment of the Labor Front, employer and employee were united in brotherhood; their efforts redirected from the all-encompassing pursuit of the highest possible profits for loan capital, towards: “capital is the servant of industry and industry serves the people” (The German State on a National and Socialist Foundation, Godfried Feder).

“This was a direct response to the fascism that triggered the war”
The removal of a financier’s ability to wildly speculate with peoples savings accounts, the recapturing of a nation’s money supply–halting Central Bankers’ ability to issue people interest bearing loan capital, the banning of usury, the bypassing of the established world trade banks through a system of national goods-bartering, the cleansing of an overtly hyper sexualized, abominable moral environment (introduced by foreigners) that always leads to the cultural abortion of any people, the abject refusal of a few brave men to accept the unabating flow of openly savage Marxism as it spread is tentacles westward from Russia, and the reclamation of lands stolen at Versailles: these are just a few of the events that “triggered the war.”

THE RESULT: The German Miracle. Within 36 months, under the direction of Adolph Hitler and a number of committed German WWI veterans, the NSDAP had elevated their nation from the bowels of hyperinflationary depression to the position of economic juggernaut of Europe. Lionized as the greatest economic achievement in history, Time Magazine proclaimed Hitler Man of The Year (1936). Later that same year Berlin would play host to the Olympic Games. Meanwhile, most of the rest of the world–capitalist and communist nations alike–continued to wallow in depression year after year.
THE RESPONSE: “We shall force this war on Hitler whether he wants it or not” (Winston Churchill). “Hitler will have no war, but he will be forced to it, not this year, but later on” (Les Aniles, 1934). “Germany’s unforgivable crime before WWII was it’s attempt to loosen it’s economy out of the world trade system and to build up an independent exchange system from which world finance couldn’t profit anymore” (The Second World War Series. Author: Churchill). “The war wasn’t about abolishing fascism, but to re-conquer the sales markets. We could have, if we had intended so, prevented this war from breaking out without doing one shot, but we didn’t want to” (Winston Churchill to Harry Truman, March 1946). Despite repeated attempts by Hitler to avoid war and live at peace with Allied nations, Churchill and FDR didn’t want it–Their international masters demanded the Fuhrer’s blood. And to get it, they marched our grandparents off to war. Again.

“Thus today we are paying the price in fear and bloodshed of having—‘Butchered The Wrong Pig’—embedded in the Second World Wars’ inception.”

“It’s the economy stupid.” Remember that battle cry from Bill Clinton’s presidential race!!!! People are sick and tired of not getting a raise; not getting a descent job; losing money on the sale of their homes; paying ridiculous price increase in health care and long term health care; of deceitful and hidden price inflation by government (i.e. not reporting the inflation numbers accurately); unbelievable low interest rates on their bank savings; out of control spending by the government on social welfare nonsense; uncontrolled fraud, waste and abuse of the taxpayers hard earned dollars; the lack of and replacement of full time jobs by part time jobs; the inability of our military to shorten the longest war in U.S. history; the general inability of the government to get the job done in almost everything; the disgraceful lack of support for our military veterans who have put their life on the line for our questionable military excursions; the prevention of our development and sale of our abundant natural energy resources; the shut down of the coal industry (we have well over 300 years of coal resources); the encouragement by the government and by the stupid and corrupt globalists of our industry to leave the U.S. for China and other low cost countries; the very real and traitorous globalists attitude that the U.S. must devolve to the level of poorer countries in order to equalize all countries in order to enable a one world government of stupidity to reign; the lack of will power to stop illegal immigration which has been going on since the early 1970’s; the inability and unwillingness of our government to achieve an even balance of trade deficit; the general lack of concern about the globalist agenda to take care of special interests instead of the American citizenry; the continuous outsourcing of our jobs (esp. high tech jobs) which has resulted in a deterioration of the skill levels of American workers; the continuous preference given to foreign students to the undermining of born and bred U.S. students; the inability of our government to understand the simple principle that “who ever owns the gold makes the rules” which has resulted in the U.S. having only 8,000 tons of gold in Ft. Knox (we are NOT even sure of that number since some say it is all gone); the lack of foresight to purchase gold over the years so that the U.S. government would have well over 30,000 tons of gold which China does have at this time; the lack of will power by our politicians to shut down the Federal Reserve which has been destroying our dollar since its establishment in 1913 (biggest PONZI scheme of all time); the unwillingness of U.S. Government agencies to return monies to the Treasury that are left over at the end of the fiscal year; the fraud, waste and abuse in the use of monies by all departments of the U.S. Government especially that of Defense where billions seem to disappear like magic; the inability and lack of will power of every administration to fire U.S. Government Senior Level Executives and their lower level managers when they do not perform and do not ensure that the bureaucracy does its job effectively and at a minimum cost; The willingness of the U.S. Government to allow a shadow government to forcefully mis-guide and run our elected officials to do their bidding instead of what is good for the country as a whole (e.g. the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign relations who have had their people embedded in every Presidential administration whether it is Democratic or Republican). And what is their bidding, their hidden agenda? It is the fostering of the Globalist Agenda and the New World Order which has over the years undermined our country and its people. And now that President Trump wants to straighten out the MESS they have unleashed their attack dogs (THE PRESSTITUTES and other hidden organizations) to destroy him by a thousand cuts of lies, half-truths, deceptions, and who knows what else. They purposely misinterpret his words and their meanings in order to undermine his effectiveness and ability to clean up the mess (drain he swamp) and to do what is best for the country as a whole. Why have they gotten away with all of this over the years? The reason is that THE AMERICAN CITIZENRY ARE ASLEEP. They have been brainwashed, slowly and effectively over the years by the PRESSTITUTES, the Universities, the school system curricula, and those who had much to gain by the demise of the U.S. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE! President Trump cannot straighten out this mess without our help. He needs our support and assistance in order to not only make American great again but to make it prosperous, to make it strong, to stop the killing of our innocents, (abortions have undermined our greatness by eliminating potential Thomas Jeffersons, Thomas Edisons, Ben Franklins, George Washingtons, Steve Jobs, and all of the potential genius types that could have solved our political, technical, industrial, medical, spiritual, etc problems. All of those brilliant people were aborted to the detriment of our country. Out of 60 million plus abortions there easily could have been several thousands of people who were above and beyond the brightest in their mental capabilities. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!!! May God protect and guide President Trump and may He awaken the public so that they follow His divine will and do what is best for themselves, their children and their country. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!

Yes, President Trump is keeping his campaign promises to the best of his abilities thus far and that is BTW, far more than most have ever witnessed from a candidate making it into office, any office for that matter. On closing the wide open borders with walls and extreme vetting, he is indeed acting on his first priority and duty as President in protecting the citizenry. The issue as to why the migrant/refugee/rapeugee/border hopper opportunists waves are occurring is something else entirely.

Some are misconstruing President trump’s foreign intentions as a continuation of his predecessors.

There is a Yuge mess inherited in this regard, among other messes, and it will naturally take some time to clean up. To reach peace instantly by simply pulling up stakes to get out of that mess is far too simplistic for the complicated mess involved. Plus, there are powerful factions remaining behind from previous administrations who are trying as they might to sustain the insanity, we all know who they are from Insane McCain Lady Graham, Chuckles Shoemore, Nutty Poloser and on and on…

So, what we have is a delicate balancing act going on with the scales being tipped in favor of America First toward Peace, Prosperity and Strength while trying to clean up the mess simultaneously. A Very Tough situation and with only a month or so into the Presidential Office, Trump is doing as well as many have hoped and prayed for.

Prayer and Support for the Sovereign Independent Nationalistic Populist Movement are needed now more than ever.

President Trump has shown that one single person can make a difference. What a change in philosophy that is after listening to the snowflakes and their semi-snowflake parents about how things can’t change. When I was in the Navy in the late 50’s the attitude was “CAN DO” and all of the Navy veterans brought that attitude into the workplace but somehow that “CAN DO” attitude has been slowly whittled away. It is time to bring back the draft in order to teach the current generation of snowflakes how to conduct themselves in a competitive world. Wake up America before it is too late!

Daily prayer can give you tremendous peace of mind and many other advantages without the harm caused by secular humanism’s propensity to sin and to encourage others to sin. Millennials are adapting to the severe economic crisis we have been experiencing since 2008 and earlier especially the PONZI scheme devised by the Federal Reserve in 1914 to steal the fruits of our labor. The $1.00 of 1914 is now worth 3 cents thanks to the Federal Reserve which is not part of the Federal Government but a private central bank bent on stealing as much money as it can get away with from U.S. Citizens. Wake up America before it is too late!

A cashless society will completely destroy our privacy and I believe will hinder financial progress because of the lack of privacy. But, on the brighter side, the younger generations have invented BLOCKCHAIN Software solutions that provide privacy, reduce monetary transfer fees across the planet, have the potential to replace banks and their high fees, and pave the way for other uses. For example, it usefulness in voting especially to eliminate voting fraud. Others are attempting to discover new uses for blockchain software. Currently BITCOIN is one of the big users of blockchain software. The limitation of currency printing/generating, which blockchain enables, can effect the same outcome as a gold backed currency which historically limited government spending. Governments would not be able to generate more than a certain predetermined currency amount which they naturally hate. This limitation of currency generation would eliminate inflation and enable an increase of the value of a blockchain currency such as Bitcoin, as an example. This increase would promote currency saving as opposed to spending it to avoid inflationary losses. This is the way it was in the U.S. prior to the deleterious advent of the Federal Reserve. President Andrew Jackson was a staunch enemy of central banking. Maybe that is why President Trump has had his portrait hung on his office wall in plain view of the media cameras. Maybe he is sending a not so subtle message to the Shadow Government otherwise currently called the Deep State or as I like to call it the real government behind the public government, i.e., the government that President Obama (the Puppet President) and Secretary Clinton (the Puppet Secretary) would listen to and subsequently implement their policies. In any event, blockchain software has the potential to eliminate dishonesty and fraud and that is a good thing for the people.

Truly interesting. I’m particularly curious about the “focus more on what we have and less on what we want” part. In Epicurus’ teaching, did that apply only to material possessions or personal relations as well? For example, when a man wanted to “befriend” a woman that was beyond his reach (for whatever reason)? I know Epicurus was against marriage, but surely he understood that one can’t command his/her heart.

Ah yes, so mr. Daviss publishes another puff piece about Randall Mills and his hydrino quackery. Well, since mr. Daviss failed to his homework (again) and cites only Mills’ wild claims, I feel obliged to warn all TJ readers who come here… again.

Randall Mills is full of shit and has been full of shit for at least 20 years now. Here is an 1999 interview with him, in which he promises all sort of miracles based on hydrinos: magnetic plastics for aerospace and semiconductor industries, advanced batteries for vehicles, powerful explosives and rocket propellants, super-strong metal alloys for armor.

http://www.villagevoice.com/news/quantum-leap-6420156

Yet, amazingly, none of it materialized in the last 20 years. Needless to say, all other Mills’ free energy scams mr. Daviss wrote about earlier also failed. Fortunately, you don’t need to take my word for it, you can find Mills’ bombastic announcements from 2006 to 2017 on his own website:

http://brilliantlightpower.com/press/

Mills’ latest SunCell device at least looks impressive on the photos, but the “results” must be immediately suspect to anyone with some background in hard sciences or engineering. Becaue using watts (immediate power) as a measure of efficiency (or gain) of a power generator is meaningless without saying how long was the power output sustained. In fact, this “approach” is very similar to earlier Mills’ scams – he had reported excess power output, but upon closer examination, the “generated” power was minuscule compared to power needed to keep the “reactors” running.

But I guess it shouldn’t come as a surprise – if someone promotes quackery and constantly fails all his promises for 20 years, how high is the chance he would suddenly become a brilliant inventor who actually delivers a working product?

Very important.

With rising USD sure gold price may fall quoted in USD… gold has to be kept down to make it look like not a alt to fiat, and silver too can only be kept down by massive paper market manipulation and then by suppressing gold. This is expected to fail. The LBMA has been increasingly exposed for bad practices in relation to setting the price of physical gold and silver.

Now for us living outside of the US clearly gold will increase in price relative to our currencies unless it rises due to purchase of physical.
Bottom line is that gold/silver physical act as hedges against confidence in govt.

Right now that is falling everywhere, loss of confidence in the media, loss of confidence in the history prior to the middle ages(all written up then.) and l us of confidence in religions now that the information has been printed in english and published on Amazon.

Big part of the problem is that Big Pharma hasn’t developed new antibiotics since… wait for it… 1987, or some 30 years! See this article:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2016/03/14/first-new-antibiotic-in-30-years-discovered-in-major-breakthroug/

But this is hardly surprising – Big Pharma obviously prefers the “treat the disease but never cure it” approach. Antibiotics are bad bussiness – the patient takes one batch and is cured. Not much profit in that. Profits are much, MUCH better when the patient has to take (and buy!) some pills for the rest of his/her life.

The great bumper sticker- war is not the answer. It depends on the question, though. If the question is how to get your child the behave responsibly, no, war is not the answer. If the question is what do you do about people who want to kill you, war IS the answer. Survival is icky and involves horrible things. The legacy of freedom and opportunity we have in this country has cost the lives of well over a million Americans and the physical/emotional damage to untold millions more. So the only question now is not whether the violence needed to survive is sickening, but whether you believe the hard-won values and traditions and freedoms we have are worth defending. But know that for all things, at all times, you MUST pay the price. There is a serious price to defense and a catastrophic price to no defense. And, no, there is no middle ground.

I’m in Atlanta suburb and my water/sewer combined bill is $20/month for 1000 gal. Oh…I heard news about a poorly run water company somewhere in Atlanta that has not billed their customers correctly (or at all) – and then sending them bills in the hundreds of dollars to catch up. Of course if you water your grass – it’s hot in Atlanta, so that will take a lot of water; and we’ve had droughts. Some of the private companies charge more – water treatment and wastewater treatment costs have risen.

April 3, 2017 Anonymous
The real scare is – you cannot produce water – all the technologies in the world can’t produce or replace water. I’ve worked in the water/wastewater industry for over a decade. Municipalities are broke, but paying for a private company still requires money they don’t have – there will have to be increases in water costs, but even money cannot buy water where there isn’t any. On the treatment side of potable water, some use UV disinfectant, but that’s only one part of the treatment – energy costs to run all those light bulbs are high; most use a variety of chemical treatments.

Many munis’ wastewater treatment processes are costly because some of the water to be treated to send back out to the rivers, etc. also comes from industrial processes (more costs to pretreat those streams before they enter the muni’s wastewater treatment facilities). Increasing costs for ‘iron’ (chemical) for the wastewater lines to reduce odor and hydrogen sulfides – these are bad and eat away the concrete pipes around the city! Membranes are only one technology and not always the best for the situation.

In the drought areas out West, you also find fracking operations – lots of these wells. Fracking uses tons of groundwater to push down into the fracking hole, and the water that comes back up is nothing short of poison (benzenes, H2S, etc). It has to be stored in a lined pond to prevent seepage back into the ground to wait for trucks come along and haul that ruined water to a treatment facility to remove the benzenes, etc. It will never be clean enough for potable re-use, and maybe only for watering non-crop fields. So, basically they have taken groundwater (for drinking) and wasted it on fracking ($$ over human needs). To be honest, I would not want to drink treated wastewater!! They have not yet figured out how to remove pharmaceuticals from wastewater – think about it. And, knowing what goes into wastewater, I’m not sure there is anything I’d trust to purify it enough to want a glass of that water.

When we do get rain, some of it goes into the storm drains (and back to the rivers, etc) – but if it’s a combined sewer system – that storm water will be contaminated. That’s why you’re asked not to pour harmful liquids down the storm drain on your street.

My water is free currently, sewer as well. I have a well and a septic system on a rural property. I pay for electricity to pump the water and $100/year to have the septic tank pumped. It is basically free right now but if the well water became contaminated I would have a problem. If the septic eventually does not meet county codes I would also have another problem.
In the end nothing is free and the dollar continues to buy less and less goods and services. This brings up another issue. The septic company cannot find young workers who need to use a shovel as part of the job description. The owner is aging and lacks the physical endurance needed for the work. The end result will be trying to locate a septic service company. I don’t think there will be robots built to shovel sticky clay for quite a while.
The local grocery store sells filtered water in 5 gallon jugs. I asked a customer why he was buying the water. He explained that his well water was contaminated with excessive nitrates. Should I continue? No, I think you get the picture.

Current driverless tech relies on a well maintained infrastructure. Painted lines on the road, signs and lights easily visible and more.
Here in Atlanta none of the traffic infrastructure is well maintained. My guess is that this is like 3d printing … great idea whose time is not here.

Liability issues I almost forgot about them … say your driverless car crashes because the lines on the road faded or the sign was knocked down. Who are you going to sue … who is your insurance company going to sue? The city? The State? The manufacturer? The software developer?

What is the dumbest question currently asked on television about stopping terrorism in the U.S.? The question goes something like this: “What can we do to stop terrorism?” The answer, in my opinion, is the same answer the U.S. government provided and carried out during World War II, and that is DEPORTATION or DETENTION! The following is taken from WikipediA under the title “Internment of Italian Americans.” It reads as follows:

“The internment of Italian Americans refers to the government’s internment of Italian nationals in the United States during World War II, similar to that of the Internment of Japanese Americans and Internment of German Americans. As was customary after Italy and the US were at war, they were classified as “enemy aliens” and some were detained by the Department of Justice under the Alien and Sedition Act. But in practice, the US applied detention only to Italian nationals, not to US citizens, or long-term US residents.[1] Italian immigrants had been allowed to gain citizenship through the naturalization process during the years before the war, and by 1940 there were millions of US citizens who had been born in Italy. Ethnic Italians were the largest group in the United States among nationals and ethnic descendants of the three peoples represented by the three Axis powers.
In 1942 there were 695,000 Italian immigrants in the United States. Some 1881 were taken into custody and detained under wartime restrictions; these were applied most often by the War Relocation Authority to diplomats, businessmen, and Italian nationals who were students in the US, especially to exclude them from sensitive coastal areas. In addition, merchant seamen trapped in US ports by the outbreak of war were detained. Italian labor leaders lobbied for recognition as loyal (and not enemy aliens) those Italian Americans who had initiated naturalization before the war broke out; they objected to blanket classification of Italian nationals as subversives.”
We see today that the government is not DEPORTING or DETAINING these potential ‘SOLDIERS WITHOUT UNIFORM’ immigrants but have actually imported them on purpose. Isn’t this high treason?!? What kind of an idiot would import people from enemy territory who CANNOT be vetted and cannot be proven to be people who do not intend to cause terror in the U.S. or as Gerald Celente says would like to “get even” because of the destruction that they may have experienced in their homeland due to this Middle East War.
The question is how many of those who have entered illegally or have been allowed to enter by the previous administration are in fact ‘SOLDIERS WITHOUT UNIFORM’. If this were the 1940s you can bet that any immigrant who gave any indication that they were a potential terrorist would have been DEPORTED or DETAINED immediately. We have a precedent from the 1940s so what is the problem with our Congress and the previous administration not doing the same to protect the American population. FDR stated that any policy coming out of Washington is always planned and well thought out and not just implemented willy-nilly. If that is true and I believe it is true then the unwillingness to eliminate terrorists is not the result of stupidity or confusion but the unwillingness to DEPORT and DETAIN is being done on purpose. So the next question is WHY? Some say that they are using these terrorist activities as an excuse to take away our liberties, i.e., one liberty at a time, until we are totally enslaved. Others say it is about the money, i.e., follow the money trail. Still others say that our political leaders are being brainwashed by radical Muslim organizations, to the point where they are totally confused. And there are many other lame brain explanations. Confused, gutless, bribed or deceitful is no excuse for Americans not to STAND UP and DEMAND that they DEPORT or DETAIN immigrants or DETAIN citizens whom the FBI and other government agencies know that these radicals have proven more than once to have terrorist connections. If enough American citizens DEMAND an end to this SUICIDAL TOLLERANCE maybe we can all breath easily once again. The FBI and other intelligence agencies know who these potential SOLDIERS WITHOUT UNIFORM are and therefore, they have a moral duty to follow the precedent already established during World War II. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!
Speaking of the Fall of the Roman Empire, those interested, should read: ” “The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire” which is a book of history written by the English historian Edward Gibbon, which traces the trajectory of Western civilization (as well as the Islamic and Mongolian conquests) from the height of the Roman Empire to the fall of Byzantium. It was published in six volumes. Volume I was published in 1776 and went through six printings.[2] Volumes II and III were published in 1781;[3][4] volumes IV, V, and VI in 1788–89.[5][6][7] The original volumes were published in quarto sections, a common publishing practice of the time. The work covers the history, from 98 to 1590, of the Roman Empire, the history of early Christianity and then of the Roman State Church, and the history of Europe, and discusses the decline of the Roman Empire in the East and West. Because of its relative objectivity and heavy use of primary sources, unusual at the time, its methodology became a model for later historians. This led to Gibbon being called the first “modern historian of ancient Rome”.” (Courtesy of WikipediA (the Free Encyclopedia)

“If France exits and pays off its 2-trillion-euro debt with newly redenominated French francs, it will constitute, in effect, a default on the country’s debt”.

This is not correct because a France exit would imply to apply the articles 8 and 9 if the Lex Monetae* :
http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:31997R1103&from=FR

Which implies after a France exit that the debt of 2000 billions EUR will become 2000 Billions French Francs, regardless of the parity EUR / French Franc.

I was surprised not to see mention of the UCLA study from 2014 which actually was able to reverse cognitive decline in an admittedly small study. 9 of 10 had cognitive improvement. They basically took everything others had found seemed to help and did them all. This makes for a rigorous program changing diet, balancing hormones, moderate exercise and many other life-style changes, but the results were very encouraging. http://newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/memory-loss-associated-with-alzheimers-reversed-for-first-time
There is even a clinic near me who has been using this protocol and has been having success: https://www.longevitymedicalclinic.com/longevity-memory-program/.

Given the nature of this (lifestyle change rather than a pill that can be prescribed) it may be it won’t make a change to the overall Alzheimer’s growth, but this is very promising and “no cure” may be an overstatement.

All matters in balance. That is, we are just starting to grasp the minute, how the molecules work within the body, which ones are used to signal, which signals they carry, when there are too many, and when there are too few and what condition or quantity relates to health or syndrome or disease.

We are in the revolution of tying all of these discoveries into the whole of the knowledge of how our body functions, how they all act within the system.

We have not even reliably determined which model of nutrition is correct because we do not yet correctly understand how our body digests and uses food. A growing body of research is starting to regard the ingestion of added sucrose (table sugar which is glucose and fructose} and added fructose (from High Fructose Corn Syrup) as injurious to our bodies and our health when it is ingested more commonly than a day a week. Evidence is mounting that sugar is a food adulterant with the greatest affect in the cause of metabolic disorders.

This does not mean that other substances are not adulterants with health consequences.

And now, tie all this in to our growing understanding of genetic and biological process function of our bodies. We are acquiring knowledge on how best to regard and treat and care for ourselves for our own best health by our own individual action once we have the resource of accurate scientific knowledge commonly available from which to construct best public policy.

The United Kingdom and Europe are already considering establishing a common platform for electric vehicle charging port design.
One of the greatest drawbacks to the internal combustion engine is that the crankcase cannot be sealed, meaning that the engine lubricant is slowly dissipated and slowly contaminated. An Electric vehicle avoids this great problem, besides avoiding the use of volatile fuel that contaminates the air, the design also greatly reduces the use of volatile lubricants.

Not only are the vehicles cleaner, but consequently, the service areas, and then the transportation corridors. New developments are occurring in electric storage capabilities, not only batteries but also capacitors, and the circuit design and the component design to transport, input and release the electricity to and from the storage unit within the vehicle.

Meanwhile, alternative energy generation is displacing and augmenting the use of fossil fuels in ways and speed not foreseen.

Remember, one hundred years ago, 1917, the greatest problem urban areas faced was keeping apace of the removal and disposal of horse manure and urine that the growth of Urbanization was generating.

Expect a huge shift in public policy towards the use of sugar within our food supply. Evidence is growing and methodology is proving out that the universal addition of sugar to almost all our food is the major driving force of the current metabolic disorder epidemic, the increase in diabetes, the increase in non alcoholic fatty liver disease, the increase in obesity.

Such a change will cause huge political problems and tensions in our Agricultural policy, our public health policy, our regulation of insurance, health system policy. food availability policy. Huge political wars will occur as different actors try to avoid, evade or shift penalty or loss of revenue and favored status due to the realization that Cane sugar, beet sugar, and high fructose corn syrup is not a healthy substance for human or animal diet and elimination or great restriction will greatly reduce the health cost of chronic disease and increase the general level of health of the population.

Remember, smoking within buildings was not banned until building owners realized that cigarette tar was causing the need for frequent replacement of ventilation motors and cleaning of ductwork and building filters, that is, an avoidable level of high cost cause to the buildings HVAC equipment by allowing tenants to smoke within the building.

Once a critical percentage of the population realizes that the collapse of our health systems due to the growing metabolic disorder epidemic (diabetes, non alcoholic fatty liver disease, obesity etc.) can be avoided by the elimination or great reduction of sugar within our consumed food and beverages, that reduction will occur.

Otherwise we face the treatment of millions of persons for decades of ever increasing cost and shorted productive lifespan besides worse health and lifespan for future generations

The body is an electrical system as proven by acupuncture meridians. Having powerful electric fields in the car such as those that may be generated by a battery pack are likely to be detrimental to health. Personally I would never get an electric car for this reason. Another problem is the electricity is generated by unhealthy ways such as nuclear power or using hydrocarbons. Half of it is lost in power line leakage. So result more hydrocarbons used.

An electric car is less flexible. In a grid down situation you have a useless lump of metal. If a police state decided to shut off power to an unruly part of a city you have a useless lump of metal. It enables more central control. Better to use hydrogen technologies. Browns gas can be used to make the combustion engine much more efficient. Fuel can be created by growing crops such as sugar cane in an emergency.

This French idea of changing things by force is just another example of the police state mentality. If it was such a good idea people would do it by choice.

I’m surprised that someone as astute as you are, Gerald, would give any credence whatsoever to the party line on CAGW (catastrophic anthropogenic global warming), or as they prefer to call it these days, man-made climate change. I could cite endless sources of evidence to the contrary, including researchers’ admission that they’ve cooked the data (no pun intended) but let’s just address what you’ve referenced here:

Rising sea levels: Islands have been disappearing and new ones appearing from time immemorial. I have spent enough beach time on both coasts to assure you that coastal properties are not being inexorably submerged. (Loss of land mass to erosion caused by tidal action doesn’t count!) My late parents lived on an inlet of the Gulf of Mexico. Absolutely no change in water level in 4 decades, except for the daily ebb and flow of the tides.

High temperature records: The MSM is quick to report any new records made on the high end of the thermometer, but are strangely silent on the many LOW temperature records being broken. They don’t have much to say about the grand solar minimum we are entering either, or the likelihood that we are entering a new ice age. Of course, whatever happens we humans did it!

Antarctica iceberg: Although huge, this is a normal phenomenon that happens from time to time… like the one in the 1920s that was four times the size of the Larsen C iceberg… or the one six times its size in the 1950s. Furthermore, both the Larsen and Ross ice shelves are known to have volcanoes and geothermal hotspots beneath them.

I won’t argue that our infrastructure is in good shape or that we are not facing immense calamitous blowback from both natural and man-made causes. Don’t look to the climate change cultists for answers. All they want is your money and obeisance….

Thanks Gerald,

Here we have a solid analysis of the current political situation without the need to take sides. The issues raised are real, we are not being served by our governments, we are being slowly enslaved. Whether we are able, as Gerald suggests, to create a third wave and vote the @&*%&#s out, is questionable. The Macron phenomenon in France may seem like the spontaneous rise of a third way, but may very well be the desperate maneuverings of the elitist wing to salvage a losing situation by dumping both the conservative and leftist incumbents and pulling a new rabbit out of the hat.

Here is hoping that his projections here are correct. My sense is that the depth of criminality in governmental structures will not be removed by simple democratic processes.

Bitcoin and other crypto derive their value from what is known as the network effect. This is a well known phenomenon on the internet where a service gains utility as more people use it.

To compare crypto currencies with fiat, which is mandated by governments in a monopolisitic way, is to miss the point. Crypto will thrive where there is a compelling usecase and wither to nothing where there is not.

Bitcoin has a first mover advantage, but it is certainly not the most promising long term survivor. Watch this space.

Many analysts have pointed to collusion at the highest levels between the Council on Foreign Relations and the heads of the Main Stream Media to pervert the truth and lead the American people (not to mention the people of the other western nations) down a path to world domination and eradication of any threat to Western hegemony. The banks and the CIA lead this charge. They pursue their goals through lies and deception.

A recent talk given by CIA whistleblower, Kevin Shipp, lays out the depth and breadth of the problem. Please excuse my placing this link in your space, but I think it is important and pertinent to your thesis:

My own experience, following early retirement, has been explorations in creative spaces like music and building. Very rewarding and totally distracting from the lies and hate being pushed about these days. Unfortunately, lately I have been drawn back into the maelstrom. Time to go sailing again.

I would interested to learn how semantic web technology will deal with competing versions of truth. For instance, how would it report on a query about the “Russian Invasion of Crimea”? Would it presume such an invasion occurred, as some would maintain, and report only on data supporting the presumptive query title, or would it gather all the data and conclude that there was no invasion?

Interesting.

Cities are definitely on the cutting edge of a connected machine environment. The necessity to “swipe the credit card” to get a charge in the car is also headed for the exits.

Iota is bringing the tangle to this market, aiming to sit in the chips of all connected machines and enable automatic free value transfers. This is potentially huge as well.

Guys, if you decide to use coinbase make sure to move your coins immediately away from the exchange and into a cold storage wallet like the Trezor or Ledger Nano. This is absolutely essential as Coinbase is an American company and has repeatedly had problems with updating their program and releasing coins in a timely manner to their clients. Furthermore, when BTC shifted, or forked,on August 1st of this year to create Bitcoin Cash Coinbase did not support this. Anyone who held their BTC on Coinbase missed out on any initial opportunity to capitalize on trading or investing from the benefits of the fork. Although, they weren’t the only ones, they are certainly a tricky company to work with for someone just starting out.

You can get your Cold Storage Wallets on Amazon if your prefer to not use a paper wallet. I don’t recommend any one in particular, however I prefer the Trezor and I NEVER take it with me through an airport…

Great article Gerald, I would just like to add that the agreement between Russia and Ukraine stated that Russia could have 25,000 troops stationed at their naval base in Crimea at any time and in fact they only were operating with only 10,000 troops at the time of the American coup. Putin then decided to increase the troop numbers closer to the 25,000 limit. I believe that it was this troop movement that the western presstitute liars used as their proof to the public that Putin had invaded Crimea.

With Hurricane Harvey and Irma taking the talk away from Russia, its clear the media is wanting to up the chatter again. Just this week that ahole from Facebook decides to release the adds said to be paid for by Russian companies. And ofc Dunkelburger says he’s releasing them because its in the best interest of the country and we all know the Russians wanted Trump to win. Next the DHS finally tells a number of states that the Russians tried to hack into their voting systems but failed. Funny that when Obama was still president, he did very little if anything to prevent such hack attacks. But then even Obozo was swayed by the Media into believing that Hillary had the election in the bag so why bother trying to rock the boat. Well it didn’t go as planned and since then its been all Russia this and Russia that and now we have Muller and his hand picked hillary supporting prosecutors trying to dig up even the smallest piece of evidence of any Trump Russia collusion. Isn’t it grand how were supposed to believe that a special prosecutor is expected to be impartial and yet every one of the prosecutors he’s brought to his team are big hillary donars. Yes Justice is blind and I have a bridge to sell you if your interested.

Trump should listen to his presidential advisors. Many missed opportunities, when he can make a wise, and eloquent statement. He should not resort to profanity, it is so unbecoming. He has a child-like crush on the military uniform, but I’m impressed what he did for VETS in terms of getting them medical care at some top places. I worked in quasi para-military environment the leaders were brilliant, dignified and intelligence. Trump should behave that way. He gets major push back on everything. Even the inevitable fall of Obamacare, something that needs to scraped, but he gets pushback. All the while MCcain get 625,000 kickbacks. As for Trump I think he is doing the best he can, but if wants America to rise in every way he needs to live by example.

Thanks for the sales pitches for bedroom communities within a few minutes’ drive of big cities, more of the suburban sprawl decried by James Kunstler. Hooray for that! But out here in the Ozarks where the small rural towns clustered around Springfield are thriving, the ones farther out, like Ava, West Plains, Gainesville are stagnating. They’re too far out to be bedroom communities for those young families, the tourist destination is Branson, with only a couple of lakes and rivers to draw tourists here in the summer, the factories that formerly provided employment have closed or downsized, and many businesses have closed. The populations are aging, the younger generations have gone to the big cities where there are jobs, and those of us who choose to stay here, including retirees, have to drive long distances even to buy groceries. So it looks as if there’s little hope for saving small rural towns just because they have long been a part of America’s history and heritage.

Gerald, In 1980 I was out of high school and off to college. It was Sept./Oct. and I needed a dictionary. I bought one at the book store. As a college student in Billings Montana there wasn’t a lot to do, so I read the Websters dictionary. I was blown away, in the back listed as the 40th president was Ronald Reagan. This was nearly 2 months before the election had occurred. I was 18 and although I still vote my conscience, not ever party, I have always believed the elections and politics are a rigged circus for the masses. I have the dictionary to this day, and every one that sees it are in complete disbelief. The library of congress even blew smoke up my ass when asked about it. This is I believe is a part of what Connally was referring to. Thankyou.

My adult daughter got an opportunity to live and work in China at an English language university. I visited her for several weeks while she was there. It was very interesting and enjoyable living in China and one did not feel unsafe in any way. Occasionally less sophisticated people would stare, some asked for photographs standing alongside you, young children would giggle and keep repeating hello, the only English word they knew, in general people were kind and polite. On the negative side the pollution and constant grey skies were unpleasant. My daughter eventually got a job in another country, her China experience definitely enhanced her career and she is very glad for her four years there

We are only 320 million in a world of 7.4 billion, or 4.3 percent of the global population. We have our own energy, our own great food supply and clean water for all. We need to take a step back and understand that Trump’s MAGA needs entire overhaul of education and skill sets, infrastructure update and a concentration of making the BEST of whatever it is we are making.

Overhaul the political “swamp.” TERM LIMITS!!! – no elected official works for more than eight years. Tax returns are audited two years before office, and five years after leaving. Drug test every six months. NO connection with ANY government employee for ten years after leaving. Eliminate as much as possible, Bribes, Payoffs and Kick backs. The most powerful military will protect us, including a threat of “little Rocket Man.”

Sharing information to toss the coin to the other side. Open space working does not fit all personalities. For introverts, it is a dream turned nightmare. Open concept floor plans and collaborative areas generate noise and distraction that would destroy an introvert’s concentration. It is an arena for too much chatting, and socializing instead of working. An article in Fortune (5/12/2016) “How the flexible office plan killed the open office” by Laura Entis, and Washington Post (12/30/16) article “Workplaces need more walls, not fewer” by Lindsey Kaufman. There are alternatives as discussed in the Quiet Revolution’s website’s article, “4 Ways to collaborate more effectively than a traditional meeting”.

Globalism is a tool for the elite to gain power over the common people and I see Corporations pushing this ideology with paid for politicians who are in this game for their personal gain as well. The media pushes globalism also, as they are merely the mouthpiece of large corporations.
What scares me even more than the “neo-feudal” society this is leading us towards, are the undercurrents. I once read “Fascism appears when capitalism decays”. There is corporate fascism, fine, but here in Europe we are facing another Ideology: Islamo-fascism. Islamo-fascism is also taking advantage of this situation. They use the politicians, they use the media, they even use the police. Islam does use money to advance it’s Ideology, but it also uses fear and the political left that seems to have ignorantly embraced global corporatism (The useful idiots).
I hope, like this article suggests, that Globalism is not really progressing as much as we think it is. Nonetheless, I can’t help but be very pessimistic about the future of freedom of expression and a true diversity of cultures around the world, at least in the west at least.

I agree that driver-less cars are a long way off. However, I believe that the future autos will be powered by four electric motors and a computer, devastating the auto industry as we know it. No more combustion engines and the need for continuous services and repairs. That with “snap together” bodies of various plastics will be much less expensive to manufacture, and with new electric motors to replace old electric motors, the car could be running a long, long time before it would be worth replacing.

AMEN! In the short term, lets have limits in our “Representative” democracy:

o No elected “official” can hold office for more than eight years.
o IRS audit two years before and five years after the term.
o Mandatory drug tests every six months.
o No political activity for ten years after the end of the term
o Each candidate receives say $ 400,000 to run their campaign. No additional money is allowed.
o No “relatives” get to run for the office after the term is completed.
o Fixed Expense accounts, no “free” Lear Jets or “slush funds” from outside sources.
o All meetings with PAC groups and lobbyists must be witnessed and documented. No secrets!

This needs to be on a ballot voted upon by the citizens ASAP.

Always consider that there are 7.4 Billion people on the planet. The US is 320 million, or less than 5% of the world population. Amazing was that I flew all over this country in my little Piper, and we have SO MUCH of everything we need to be always the best. No need to be the biggest, only the best. Best in education, productivity, innovation, health services, comfort and quality of life, and all at a price that is “within budget.” We need a good military, as the other 96% of the world, wants what we have, and are willing to take it from us if they can.

China will always have problems with 2.4 Billion people, or eight times our population with limited resources and no democracy. Who will China sell its “stuff” to? How will they support such a large population that is easily prone to riots and anger at the “centralized” government control. India is not far behind.

This division is brought about two different philosophies. One is that the “government” should provide all control and services for the people. The other is that the people on a local level know best what is needed, and the government has responsibilities that that can only be handled by a Federal government – borders, military, trade, etc.

Both can have benefits if it is all paid for by an agreed upon balanced budget, agreed to by the citizens of each State. Citizens have a choice to move to States that embrace their philosophies and pay taxes to support these philosophies. However, the Federal government should not subsidize any state or take money from one state and distribute it to other states. In this way, no one is “forced” to pay for what they do not want to pay for.

Citizens are leaving the Blue states in high numbers. This will balance the “divided” country.

The Blue states are in heavy debt, but provide a lot of generous benefits. The Red states, not so much, but they do not have so much debt. People can go to the state that they think is best for them.

The reality is the Bezos “hit a home run” and has changed retail forever.

His software is incredible, and the range of products is also mind boggling. You click, and a UPS guy shows up in a uniform, and hands you your package in two days from “clicking.” No gas consumed, shipping included, no wasted time, no ignorant clerks, and pricing that is consistently better than the stores and often no sales tax. Plus Kindle books, Prime movies and documentation on everything purchased. Returns are no problem. Print out a label and the UPS guy takes it back.

I can’t imagine how a “creative” store will provide product and service that will allow them to make a profit (the only reason to have a business.) I hope you are correct, but the toothpaste is out of the tube, and “brick and mortar” stores will have to have a better “customer experience” that provides value.

To me, Amazon stunned Walmart, and keeps them honest, which was not the case when Bezos was just starting out.

I hope you are correct, and we will see what happens next.

We’re at the 50Y low in commodities. China expects 40 new nuclear reactors are needed in order to cover electricity form EVs, UK expects 6 new nuclear reactors due to same reason and many many more.

Now open uranium prices and match them with commodities prices.

Expect that during next 10Y the cost of charge your EV will go up like x5. Take a recession into consideration which will flush all EVs start ups. Daimler openly admits that EVs is a money-losing trend, but everybody jumps into it, we can do it too as we got tons of cash which we can burn in EVs fun – at least we can afford on that.

It should be noted that some cryptos are mired with pitfalls that will prove their undoing in time. For example, in Bitcoin’s case, confirmation of each transaction already consumes enormous amount of electric power. At this time, it’s 234 kWh per transaction, which is about 28 USD:

https://digiconomist.net/bitcoin-energy-consumption

Let me ephasize this: EVERY SINGLE Bitcoin transaction costs 28 USD in real money and that’s only electricity! Now, Bitcoin is designed with exponential rise of mining/confirmation computational complexity. That means the real transaction costs will also rise (more or less) exponentially. So in a few years, the transactions costs WILL become higher than the value of the coin itself. When this happens (and miners and clearing houses start losing real money), people will abandon Bitcoin.

Mind you, all this is long known fact, but it’s woefully under-reported. Creators of other cryptos know about this and tried to mitigate it – if you plan long-term gambling with cryptos, you should study which cryptos are resistant to this. But Bitcoin WILL fall, it’s only a matter of time.

Who’s to blame for an accident? How does a police officer pull over a driverless vehicle when they see a cause? And will people really want vehicles that are software-programmed to obey the speed limit? Or will they allow manual overriding the limit and thus not really be driverless? Gerry’s right.

@ Piper Pilot

China’s population is around 1.4 billion strong and not 2.4 billion. I would guess this not a typo error as you calculate wrongly that the Chinese population is 8 times that of the US when it is 4.3 times more.
As far as most of the world wanting what the US has, the contention is far fetched. What I can say for sure most of the world does not want that is made in the U S are the following:
Phone representative democracy.
GMO food
The police state
The social discord
Drinking water laced with fluoride
The medical and related insurance swindle
The dysfunctional family with high divorce rates and children out of wedlock
The corporate stranglehold on all branches of government
The military industrial complex
One thing that most of the world should emulate is the first amendment of the US constitution.
I truly concede that the US can abandon its imperial drive and increase the living standard of all Americans if the country is governed in the interest of ‘ ‘we the people’.

I don’t see these happening on a mass scale in the next 40 years. But I will make a prediction that what will cause this to happen would be battery technology.

As for the idea of ignoring energy sources that work, only government would be stupid enough to suggest doing that. After all, governments have a history of ignoring the sane while they attempt the impossible.

Batteries are an 1800 electrolyte based invention indeed, but- in the 1800s, and during the first half of 1900s, theoretical limits of Ph number were 0-14. And then, an acid with insane Ph number of -31.3 was invented.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoroantimonic_acid

So, um… combined with Lithium- can you imagine what such electrolyte could do? If it somehow manages to not explode, of course. But then, there are other acids with less insane Ph numbers.

Battery of energy density of a gasoline tank is technically possible, I think, but it will be as dangerous as a gasoline tank. Batteries of bigger energy density will be even more dangerous.

Blockchain is currently in the same phase as the mobile phones in the 1970s, or internet in 1990. Both technologies are major breakthroughs, they radically changed our lives, they are here to stay, but investing in Motorola in the 1970s or dotcom companies in the 1990s would hardly make one rich without substantial risks.

As far as Bitcoins of various forks is concerned- I’m pretty skeptical for the time being, for the following reasons:

– Bitcoin is NOT really anonymous. All it offers is pseudonymity. When your Bitcoin account number aka Bitcoin wallet address is connected to you, you are @&*%&#ed. Everyone can trace all your transactions.

– The usual security problems with digital signature, preventing the loss or theft of your private key, and such.

– Security problems at cyrpto-fiat exchanges. Hacks, surveillance, stuff like that.

So, I’m still sticking with gold as my safe haven asset. Gold is one and only, while cryptocurrencies are many. At this point it’s impossible to predict which one will survive and which will die.

By the way, in 1996 NSA came out with an excellent cryptocurrency idea. If you ask me, this is far better than Bitcoin. It was in William Binney’s time.

Few would believe man could cause simultaneous or nearly so unleash earthquakes, economic collapse, world nuclear war, EMP grid destruction, volcanoes, civil war, airborne sprayed pandemic, directed energy firestorms … I probably left out some …

Yet these sickos have been working in all of those directions, and love their little games with numerology, satanism and symbolism. When the big ugly hits the fan, I will believe in neither coincidences nor natural causes.

Interestingly, Trump’s ratings are due to a full-court-press by the media monopoly. Merkel, Macron, Clinton and their gang are disrespected in spite of love lavished upon them by the presstitutes.

The good news in that is there is some awareness creeping into our society. Increasing numbers are recognizing exactly who is peddling fake news. That is a trend worth embracing.

The Libertarian Party was founded in 1972 by political philosophers disgusted with the D/R duopoly. It will forever be on the fringe because it does not embrace taking other people’s stuff for redistribution, with the lion’s share skimmed off by the ruling elite.

I would LOVE to see widespread enthusiasm for the 45-year-old Libertarian Party, but their failure to embrace the Universal Free Lunch will keep them on the fringes.

To my supreme disgust, socialism and collapse seem to be on our horizon.

I would second sensei. Those trading in the space like to use binance (China) or a Japanese exchange which as well as being more reliable when it comes to paying out also gives you good access to these altcoins one of which will someday replace BTC.
That said, siting on 1 BTC given the limited number which will be produced, is a good strategy one I have recommended to family members.

Interesting read as it relates to unity, or rather strife, among populations as a result of globalization. However, I think it’s equally important to discuss/review globalization as it relates to cost of labor. There’s certainly a case to be made that mass “waves” of globalization occur during industrial revolutions when labor costs are increasing as a result of a new, disruptive technology. For example, look at where James Watt’s steam engine was invented, and look at where it got outsourced to. A more recent demonstration of this phenomenon would be the internet. Where was the internet invented/developed, and where was it outsourced to? In both instances, disruptive technologies during a period of industrial revolution/wage inflation were outsourced to a cheap labor country.

I read this article and very disturbed by the very biased report of Ian Henscske. It is very obvious that Ian is a proponent of US wars (being a main stream “journalist”) and cannot see reality (or refuses to) even when staring straight at him. Refer also commets made by others.
I am truly disgusted to read such bullshit in your magazine Gerald, very unlike the high standards and clarity that you have. I take this ‘contributing” writer” as an aberration to your standards.
There is so much misinformation in this article but i must bring one to your attention and that is of Tibet. Tibet was invaded by the British in 1903 – before then it was part of China (so is Arunachal Pradesh – which China claims as South Tibet). China objected to this invasion but nothing other than diplomatic objection was made then as China was also under British influence and having lots of internal issues of their own, followed by the opium wars (started by the British). China has now reclaimed Tibet (and also claiming Arunachal) as they now can.
I am not a supporter of one side or the other, ANY human suffering is uncalled for and I have no preference or bias, but history must be reported as it happened and not twisted to meet an agenda (or ones inability to face alternate histories) like Ian’s article. Ian very clearly is a defender of the US cabalistic values and ideologies and does not even mention any colour revolutions started by them or the British (and French, Spanish, German etc), which has caused countless lives and human suffering. I always remember that real deception lies in what is “not said” or “not reported”. Ian has done just that.

Trendy neighborhood retail strips (of individual stores) doing well in many places throughout USA and Canada are proof to your theory that there is a market for it!
Millennials crave this experience, that ‘they’ will have to create.
I agree, 100%, that it can happen. The prediction is 100% reality if millennials get off their lazy asses, use some imagination, and most importantly not give up (or become stuck in a comfort zone) when obstacles show up in their new business. The latter being the most difficult, because low self-esteem is a huge potential to curb them, along with Mom and Dad to fall back on. One more thing: individuality of stores is not enough. There needs to be a revival of entire neighborhood retail strips, or at least an entire block, of these individual stores creating a magnet for people to arrive, with clean modern city infrastructure and decent parking space and access. When I was a young teenager, I used to question why the two biggest record stores in Toronto were side-by-side on the famous retail strip known as Yonge Street. Eventually I figured it out on my own: They thrived off each other to bring all the people from the city, including the suburbs, to come down for the shopping experience of two unique stores offering the biggest selection available. Yes they were competing, but together they created a magnet of shoppers large enough to make both stores extremely successful!

Indeed many towns, and trendy city neighborhoods, have gentrified. But the race to gentrify versus falling apart has been a losing race for the past few decades. Without a strong tourist attraction to create service jobs that sustain people to make a living, it’s difficult for cities and towns to operate on just the service industry alone. The original model of a perfect self-sustaining area is 1) Primary: resources 2) Secondary: manufacturing and construction… both of which automatically lead to creating >>> 3) Tertiary: Service industry. National and Global trading is the obvious reason for towns and cities, let alone entire countries, to be able to survive without a proper balance of these three sectors. However, when I finished my Urban Studies University Major over 25 years ago, I saw the ridiculous bad placement of budget money at levels of Government. What startled me the most was the municipal level Government, and how crooked things were. My goal was to become part of the city council, but later scrapped the idea knowing that these pundits are in a voting committee and often vote in favor of incorrect land use zoning and infrastructure advancement where needed. I agree that a model does exist to make a town work on Tertiary jobs alone, but many businesses will always be at risk because the sense of ‘community’ and ‘values’ no longer genuinely exist. Yes, even Millennials would crave the idea of being part of a community, but in today’s standards that would be a superficial meaning compared to the deep valued meaning of the past. People would have no shame in just getting up and leaving the town to try a new life in a different city… after all, they arrived just as easily to the community in the first place – easy come, easy go. Long-term healthy low-risk (economically) communities can exist, but it’s going to be almost impossible without a smaller Government, better Government implementation, and of course less corruption.

Government, SOE companies, and private corporations are all tied in too deeply within the control of overall Government.

Government policy changes, whether new Government or traditional Government, would be difficult to make against the elite control. However, changes could be made very slowly with a extreme long term outlook, which would take several generations to happen… literally speaking, and yet still may fail to be enough of a change anyhow. The grandchildren (and great grandchildren) of today’s ‘owners’ would not only have to be extremely proactive with these changes, but also avoid being turned to the dark side by greed and money, which is often what happens to liberal thinking people after they advance into the elite world through there own business, invention, or inheritance.
I’m optimistic that the Trend Forecast in the article is a possibility, but my belief in it is more hope than it is reality – based on human history and how ‘control’ has generally operated for several millennia.
In order for this Trend to work, I’ll say what I’ve always been saying for 30 years now: Freedom, peace, and a much higher EQ may be reached by continued exponential growth of human race integration, the disappearance of religion, the parenting and education system for the young that teaches EQ and moral values, and most importantly the understanding and meaning of modern 21st century community whereby your community is no different than the other community…
For example:
black versus white,
country/culture versus neighboring country/culture such as Pakistan versus India or Germany versus France, Japan versus China,
your town is no different than the other town just because you have a better sports team,
your neighborhood is not better than the other neighborhood just because you have bigger houses.

It goes beyond the problem of just patriotic pride.
It is ‘pride’ itself that needs to be eliminated, and until that is gone, we will never move beyond the lower brain activity to unite as an intelligent species with high EQ and moral values.
This is why race integration and the disappearance of religion are huge stepping stones!!
With race integration, there is no war over race/culture… and with religion out the window, well, let’s just say that we can create a new interpretation of ‘the meaning of life’, since the original meaning of life has been ‘through religion’ and has been good and bad at the same time – good for civility within the community, bad for the overall planet and integration of communities! And besides, the rules were always broken anyhow, even by the highest ranks!!

By the way, I agree with Ted’s comment.

Aside from the media, there is a bigger illusion in the overall picture of why ratings are so low for Trump et al. Freedom of speech, and not having to worried about being badly judged, hit, or hanged for speaking your mind, has now become the biggest deflection of reality to create illusions – which mainly exist in first world countries (especially the USA).
People everywhere have an opinion, whether they got it through media, word of mouth, or their own derived idea.
Nowadays, most negative opinions comprise of gossip about politicians and other authoritative figures like police, judges, bosses, managers, teachers, coaches – you name it!
People feel an illusion of empowerment when they’re in a bar discussing (and agreeing with one another) the problems of a politician. This feeling becomes largely enhanced when the same points are being made by the media, helping to solidify one’s feeling of empowerment.
This is a psychological phenomenon based on the feeling of ‘team effort’, whereby your friends, acquaintances and local news station are saying the same negative thing about Trump (for example) and now you feel the illusion that you are in control, because not only are you allowed to spit out your opinion without being hanged for it, but you also have the team on your side.
Then you walk around on your high horse with your head high thinking, “Well, because these ‘talks’ exist on television and in the local bar I frequent, then a change must/will be taking place in our favor therefor,” hence, the ILLUSION… there is no change!! It’s a psychological phenomenon making you think there are changes taking place, or about to take place, in favor of your opinions or the opinions of others you agree with.
Meanwhile, the Elite are all laughing from their yachts and mansions, not giving a crap about what the ‘public’ thinks… after all, they’re not friends with the public; they already have their personal friends… so they let the public, and media, gripe and complain about problems, knowing that it’s keeping the public at bay (with the illusion of empowerment) while they stay in control and run off with all the money!!!

I like the Trend Forecast.
It is highly likely that the US GDP will fall below 2.5% in the future, causing an even bigger disparity in the number comparison. Also, as the middle class does grow stronger in China, USA’s middle class will decline, speeding up the closing ratio of China overtaking the USA’s middle class percentage.
I can’t imagine how the GDP can remain at 2.5% when the entire current ‘fake’ economy is sitting heavy on top of an egg ready to burst… the egg being the real economy of America based on the numbers. No different than the real numbers in the 1990’s that virtually matched the 1930’s, including the build up years prior to both depressions… Ravi Batra called it out, and yes the Government intervening (saving) the demise from being worse combined with other big economies collapsing world wide to level the playing field masked how bad things really were. People weren’t lining the streets for soup and losing their homes or businesses at the same percentage rate as the 30’s, but then again they never had ‘credit’ back in those days like they did in the 90’s. Thank Nixon for signing a policy that increased the Fed’s ability along with Government intervention to exploit lending beyond it’s original means (The Federal Reserve Act under Woodrow Wilson was doing fine, until Roosevelt ruined everything and started a problem that has now exponentially destroyed the economy for the long haul!). Of course, it became rampant during the Reagan administration when not only did the Government start borrowing like a desperate madman, but also allowed people to do the same by going to the bank for lines of credit and credit cards!
It then went out of control with both the Government and the people during the 90’s… to the point where it became the norm for the Government to regularly print money and build a fake economy, while at the same time being the norm for people to spend 25% of their net household income on debt interest – money that could have been both saved for a stronger homeland net worth among the people, and also spent on goods and services helping to keep the GDP at healthier levels. Where is all that money though? In the hands of the banksters, who are allowed to act like loan sharks, and add insult to injury by charging $29 for an over-limit fee (on your $3K credit card) that should’t exist in the first place! How can there be a $3k limit if there is no limit? Oh, but they say, “it’s for in case of an emergency”, at which point I say, “Gerald, please push the bullshit button on that one!” If there is a hotline for stolen cards, then there can easily be a hotline (if not the same one) for needing an extra $120 as an emergency when your card does hit the limit, and perhaps for a nominal fee of $5-$10 (of course only when you make the call)… as opposed to millions of people accidentally going over the limit because the bank allows them to do so in order for them to make the $29 per person, per time it happens $$$!! And not because, “We want to be there for the customer’s needs!”
As petty as that final rant may seem after a huge rant on the entire macro economical scale stated earlier, it all falls in the same pool of crap and corruption, and certainly adds up to billions of dollars paid by the people for even these trivial things (when multiplied) to support the elite!

People aren’t going to get up and revolt. They’re too distracted by the internet, television, alcohol, video games, the nice SUV they own and wash by hand every weekend, and drugs. They are a spoiled and distracted public.
The only realistic way things will change is by having theses ‘divided states’ actually divide. Each state will have stronger individual policies that better suit the state and not the country. The federal level of Government would be much different, and much smaller. If it can work in Switzerland, then it can work in a state… but it can’t work in a country like USA, as a whole, with such huge regional disparities!

The North Korean threat is not as real as people think.
The Middle East war (when it happens) will implode within it’s own area and not threaten people elsewhere in the world, though it will certainly create havoc in the global economy for an extended period of time (although that will eventually iron itself out safely).
I do believe the trend will remain on the current path, as predicted in the report, and that is very unfortunate. It’s bad enough that people in the Middle East have religious and cultural differences causing hatred in the first place, now throw in the added problem of weapons sales $$$ and valuable country resources (oil for example) and you have a problem that is not fixable.
As my father always used to say back in the late 70’s and 80’s, “The Middle East will be the place where massive war happens, but we will never know when it will happen until it’s too late, nor how bad it will spread to the rest of the world.” His point was that although it is inevitable, it will never be imminent except for the brief moment before it happens. He used to laugh at the various predictions he’d read about, whether news or intellectual reports and data, that were made about ‘when’ and ‘where’ the Middle East war will start. Back in those days, almost every report made predicted a war that should have already happened! He wasn’t trying to be a pundit in predicting it… because he knows it’s not possible to predict. But it will happen, he said.

Government intervention has always been the ultimate threat for cryptos. People want to become part of the trend. People want to buy into it and see them rise. But when the teacher says, “Stop this nonsense and go back to properly doing your business in class”, you can kiss cryptos goodbye. The Government has always been the teacher, the authority, telling us what to do and how to do it, treating us like kids. Stopping this crypto nonsense (nonsense according to Governments) will take place at any time the crypto seemingly becomes a threat. Is it a coincidence that as soon the cryptos erupted, Governments around the world are starting to clamp down? C’mon people. It’s a gambling market. If you were lucky enough to get in on it earlier and smartly cashed out when it peaked, then you benefited from the craze. If you’re still holding on waiting for another peak (or better peak), then good luck to you. And if you buy today, the volatility is too risky! There are smarter things out there to invest in today.

Great story! I notice a deep, dark moral to this story. Prior to the epiphany, I assume you were immersed in a deep passion of love for your country, and therefore found it difficult to believe that such a place could be so crooked as it is! If you, and the few other intellectual people in the country, need an epiphany as a wake-up call, then imagine how hard it will be to get the average (and below average) American intellect to wake-up and put their beliefs of how they’re being screwed by the system above their beliefs in strong, deep-rooted patriotism.
My point is that no matter how much people ‘DO’ believe they’re being screwed, the belief is ‘NOT STRONGER’ than the love of their homeland, and the conflict of interest is too hard too swallow, so a choice has to made, and that choice is patriotism over belief… and then the crooked belief sits in dormancy (preventing people from taking action), so instead people just ‘talk’ about it, at most!

“Does their Church of God, run by a holier-than-thou hierarchy, sanctify genocide and wanton destruction?”

Well, the Chrisitan God doesn’t, at least not according to New Testament. But USA is currently run by Neoconservatives, most of whom are jews (many of them even have dual Israeli citizenship). And jewish God DOES approve of genocide and destruction. Just read the Old Testament, it’s full of shit like that. So really, they’re just doing their God’s bidding. And we, the “stupid goyim” do nothing to stop them. In fact, most of us are even afraid to speak out, because any criticism of jews or Isrel is automatically regarded as “anti-semitism”. Eh, maybe we really do deserve to die in a nuclear war the Neoconservatives/zionists are slowly bringing upon the world…

This is a great piece and one sorely needed to be read and processed carefully with all of its implications. Indeed, not only do I agree with the position so well-stated here but, as one-nobody-gal, I have done something about it that has made a world of difference in my life and my son’s as well. We cut the cable so to speak – because I could no longer support news’ entities “divide and conquer” strategies outlined here along with a plethora of commercials constantly interrupting programming from sports’ events which I personally liked best to movies and specials. The result? We READ books for free from our beloved public library and share the information contained therein. No more reaching for the remote every minute to mute the barrage of commercial noise. Our phones are not “smart” either. I like to think we are the ones who have a modicum of intelligence not some plastic made in China device. And our home is so much more peaceful. Additionally, we choose our news’ sources like Gerald Celente, Trend,s along with Ralph Nader – God Bless them for fighting the good fight and their courage! We need men, women, children of all races and faiths in a good and gracious God who have COURAGE!

Love this piece and the closing thought at the end. In my opinion, we need to unplug as much as possible to enable healing by looking “outside.” By outside (I’m probably betraying my Jersey-girl upbringing i.e., “Hey Ma, I’m going outside now!”) – I mean NATURE = the natural world of which we are creatures like all life on this planet. Live in an app? You will lose yourself, your passions, your values and possibly your soul. My son and I live in the southwest and it finally, finally rained. We sat on our balcony and nothing could compare to the feel and blessed scent of the earth. Right. Our earth, our planet…our humanity in “getting it.” We watched birds drinking it up…so precious. Yes, there’s a world out there you know and it was created by God for us to enjoy and inspire ourselves and others for the sake of creating wonder in all areas of expertise. Real wonders, that is…not an app.

Dear Skeptic – the God of the OT is the same God in the NT. Allowing something doesn’t mean approval of something – are you a parent? If you are, then you can come up with numerous examples. God allowed man to enslave other men, but that does not mean He likes it and in fact gives caring and compassionate advice and commands on how to conduct yourself if you are the slave or you are the master, for both will be held accountable.

Gerald – Many who claim to be Christian are not going to enjoy heaven. True in the OT and in the NT. Christians are not called to political action; we are called to have compassion. Changing the morality of a nation toward the “gold standard” is good, but changing the life of one soul from the pit of darkness into the Light of Christ is better.

Electric motors in wheels is hardly new technology, the first patent for that was awarded in 1890. No, that’s not a typo, it was really over 100 years ago:

https://patents.google.com/patent/US433180?oq=electric+wheel+hub+motor

Several modern electromobiles use them, but they have one BIG problem: they are prone to damage from the road potholes. So they’re fine if you live in Miami or Texas or other areas for rich folks where roads are pristine. But if you live in some godforsaken shithole like Detroit or Cleveland… well, you’d spend more time repairing the wheels than driving.

I fully agree with what your saying Gerald. Interest rates are the key to why the markets are pulling back. As you pointed out, new home mortgages are moving lower. Combine higher rates with fewer homes and you have home builders raising prices that only the higher income earners can afford. It’s already affecting Auto and truck sales. Just this week I saw adds for one of the major Auto companies announcing big discounts on new Trucks. $11,000 off certain or higher priced trucks. We don’t see these kind of adds till September.

Gerald you and I are old enough to remember when interest rates were 15 to 17 percent and sometimes higher. I had an old friend who had six month CD’s that he used to roll over ever six months for 10%. I recently purchased a 12 month CD for 1.65% and the bank is now offering a special 12 month CD for 1.95%. That ofc is much higher then the average bank CD today. Before the banking crisis, my savings account was aying 5% a month. LOL to ever seeing that again.

Credit card rates are also moving higher. Its all about interest rates and the greedy out there will try to gouge the home buyer until they can’t afford a new home and once again it will all collapse. I say short the Homebuilders .

I fear that any platform, wether old or new, that has a big an audience as Facebook and Google has today, will ultimately use any and all data as it’s commodity. That’s really where the bread and butter of our new world is. Information is the new oil. The new generations will never stop using these alternate digital societies and government will never inact any laws protecting any of the data, bc it’s those very agencies that are using this data for their gain. This including Corporate America. What needs to happen is laws that allow the masses to get paid for the use of their data. This levels out the playing field. Once money making becomes part of the data mining business then there’s benefits for everyone. Ching Ching.

In Europe and the U.S., companies like Acxiom are allowed to collect data from public and other sources about us. European privacy rules, which are due to be strengthened in coming months, require all data gatherers to disclose to any European who asks what information they hold on them. U.S. law doesn’t give Americans the right to this level of disclosure. Why not?

As i see it, it’s almost impossible to be a “good prepper” when i though about it. Consider: Food, water, fuel, shelter that is protected from radiation, Bio, and ??, neighbors, rioters, looters, and who know what. Now for how long do you need to be protected? How do you provide enough Fuel for Vehicles, cooking, warmth (if you need it), how much food, how many people, what about water, waste? How do you get information, will electrical equipment still work, will your generator still work, for how long, how much fuel. Rotation becomes problematic, who is also enrolled in this? Seems to me to be “sort of handled” COULD, not necessarily WOULD , become a Major problem. So it seems to me you are either 100% in or it stands a real chance of failure in the extreme case, which it seems to me you would be preparing for. Just my take.

Sounds more like pipe dream to me, and the reason is… competition. Today, even common appliances like TVs and satellite receivers from different producers have different command protocols. In fact, many producers make them deliberately incompatible, in order to promote so-called vendor lock-in. In any case, inter-appliance communication will require MASSIVE standardization, which is virtually non-existent today.

A second big problem will be security – the reality is, software for all these contemporary “smart appliances” are developed in China, India and other low-wage countries. Most often the “developers” just hastily slap together some embedded Linux with code and programs they find around the Internet. No real security testing takes place. What is worse, after a two or three years, many companies don’t even bother to provide software patches if critical vulnerabilities are found. With thousands of bored hackers around the world, such vulnerabilities can quickly cause losses much bigger than any potential time/energy/money savings.

Thanks for the article Gerald. I am interested to see how this hot topic evolves.

In response to TheSceptic, I agree with your concerns but I think new protocols will emerge to create a global standard which will enable interoperability in a secure encrypted and hopefully decentralised framework. One such protocol currently in development and rapidly gaining significant industrial partnerships is the distributed ledger technology called IOTA. This is a German non-profit which is aiming to build a scalable feeless decentralised data transfer protocol which will facilitate the Economy of Things (Bosch, Fujitsu, VW, amongst many others have already placed their bets on IOTA). The beauty of this solution is that it is essentially free to use and so will not garner competition between private protocol ecosystems who would otherwise have to spend on significant R&D to develop their own solution. Have a look at iota.org for more info.

GM is the most incompetent corporation in America if not the world. They continually increase horsepower and decrease gas efficiency at the end of business cycles. I told them in 2005 and they laughed at me. I sold my GM dealerships in 2005 and now laugh at them. I cannot wait to short GM stock soon.

GM sells Volt and Bolt, and unlike Tesla Model 3, there are no shortages – you can go and buy one of those two today. Chrysler sells a hybrid minivan. No shortages either. If consumers wanted more of those very economic and crashworthy vehicles, they’d buy more.

With the international trade barriers now being erected, US manufacturing is poised to pick up, which may result in more demand for industrial construction, which may result in more demand for commercial vehicles. Ford already proactively switched to more economical engines for its commercial vehicles.

High-efficiency and collision durability are at odds, due to physical realities no one in this galaxy can repeal. High-tech, not low-tech, is required to advance both efficiency and crash-worthiness at the same time. If and when market demands it, it will be done on a larger scale.

German manufacturers especially appear to understand this well, and recently disclosed a number of inventions related to that. Not to mention that scaling up the technologies used in BMW i3 could provide a quick path to that.

fatalities? I don’t understand the criticism. The passenger deaths were all in Tesla’s, so maybe it is a Tesla specific problem. There was one pedestrian fatality, Uber. How many human driven vehicles had fatalities?

“driverless world is imminent.” What does imminent mean? GM and Waymo are setting specific dates, 2020. Will they meet those dates for what I think are local taxi services in well behaved places like Chandler AZ? Then there are the low speed shuttle bus services that are already running.

I don’t think using Tesla or Uber are representative.

I’m not sure about some of the arguments here. Technical analysis certainly helps making predictions, but I don’t know how reliable it is for long term predictions in the case of Ethereum where the market has only existed for 3 years.
Bitcoin has gone through similar exponential ups and downs a few times before and always moved higher after each crash. The whole cryptomarket is still in its infancy and big price fluctations are to be expected. Even at its peak the marketcap was less than Apple’s. In comparison the Nasdaq marketcap was $7 trillion before the dotcom crash.
Another point made is that cryptos and DLT are seperate like the internet and Nasdaq companies. However, while it is possible to use the internet without investing in Nasdaq stocks it is not possible to use blockchain services without owning the currencies.
And there is no mentioning of activities currently taking place in the background like the launch of Bakkt by Intercontinental Exchange with backing from Microsoft among others to create a regulated market for cryptocurrencies, several banks, like Goldman Sachs, exploring custodial services for cryptocurrencies, the pending decision by the SEC about the first crypto ETF as well as all the crypto-activity in Asia. All of which has the potential to bring a lot more money into cryptomarkets.
I agree that most existing currencies will disappear, though.

If you want to transmit a large quantities of data through the air, there’s no alternative to microwaves, I’m afraid.

The only known and proven microwave risk so far is heating of internal organs which normally don’t produce heat (like muscles), and have no way of cooling. Eyes & brains are typical examples. The most obvious way of minimizing cellphone microwave risk is therefore to keep it away from head. Lately, I’m seeing an increasing number of people doing just that. Many women use earphones & microphone on a cable, while keeping smartphones in their purses. Increasing number of people are talking with the loudspeaker on, holding the phone in front of the face instead of pressing it on ear. Intensity of microwave radiation follows the inverse-square law. Using phone like this therefore reduces exposure significantly.

August 20, 2018 Anonymous
The case being presented by the article is spot on! Investments must consider the risk of losses and how those risks affect your “long-term” returns. If your investments lose 50% of their value, it takes roughly 8 years to bring you back up to par (assuming an annual 10% return). That’s par — meaning you are just back where you started. You had no gains whatsoever. Let that sink in……still waiting because you clearly haven’t given it enough thought…..

And the other point being made is that technical analysis represents actual investor behavior (of all participants). It’s not about what one person believes or that warren buffer thinks it’s garbage. It’s about what the masses think. And sure the masses are often wrong, but they sway markets to the point of irrational behavior. Like pushing bitcoin to $20K — foolish and irrational. Now that irrational behavior will work against bitcoin too. Which is why investors shouldn’t trade market tops or bottoms; they should trade on the averages. I do think that algos are creating a new paradigm in investing which will lead to much greater volatility – both on the upside and the downside.

August 20, 2018 Anonymous
I concur the short term volatility will continue for several more months. After this, I see proof of another large bubble developing.

Institutionals are rapidly paving not just roads, but HIGHWAYS to route trillions to this new asset class. As such, corporations and money management firms remain, drooling on the sidelines until custodial solutions are in place. They CANNOT legally allocate and manage clients money invested in this space without a third-party holding intermediary. Much of the cryptocurrency space is occupied by the moentarily oppressed, the individualist future visionaries, and the independent venture capitalists. The likes of Jamie Dimon, Charlie Munger, and Warren Buffet spew ad hominem vile to run down down prices, to deepen, hasten present capitulation driven by the poor souls looking to these legendary “revered” investors for guidance.
Overall price decline in the space has driven Ethereum down to an alarming level for corporations using the platform for their own tokenization, hence furthering the selling frenzy as they attempt to mitigate further substantial investment losses.

Watch what they DO with their money, not what they say!! Behind the scenes, these “Bad-Mouthing Big Boys” and other large name players buy hand-over-fist at the least reactive drop in price (spurred by their conspiratorial deragatory twaddle). Those currently invested in the space consist substantially of the global montarily oppressed “mom and pops,” the individualist visionaries, and independent venture capitalists. The market moves much on “news and spews,” as there are no balance sheets or Prospectus to view, and no Wall Street Journal (such as it is) of Cryptos. Volatility will almost certainly persist until this asset class is mature, perhaps 10 to 20 years from now.

Tokens are are the new “stocks” of blockchain based organizations working toward solutions of real world problems. Some will succeed and become the new FAANG’s. Many will go to zero. DLT will be globally disruptive technology, and much like the early early internet still in it’s infancy; it will grow up and persevere to change the world. The short term 1-10 year volatility is of no concern to me. Blockhain technology will eventually usher in the “Internet 3.0.”

Once again, the US so-called media (intentionally?) ignores the real news of Coinbase, Fidelity, IBM, plus countless other world-wide businesses announcing usage or usage plans of blockchain to better their own business, or as direct offerings to customers investment portfolios. The Cryptos will be touted by Money management as a hedge to overall portfolio volatility, as a non-correlated asset class portfolio position. The Institutional profit potential from convincing retirement investors to add a cryptocurrency ETF (when available) is too tempting. When it’s easy for average consumers to buy crypto’s through Fidelity via retirement vehicles, etc, the asset class will explode in value. Water will froth when the investment sharks snatch up these ETFs for their clients. And oh, how the money will roll into the whole CC space, by the TRILLIONS. As Bitcoin rises, being the popolar reserve currency of the space, it will very likely lift all boats (for a while anyway). Current total market capitalization of all CC, as per Coinmarketcap.com at time of this posting 8-22-18), is a little over 216 billion. To me, there is plenty of likely upside if one is PATIENT. As a speculator, I will vote to hold as my investment timeframe can tolerate, and I can sleep well knowing I have only a little to lose for the potentially lucrative gains. Investment in crypto currency is time consuming, risky, and requires signing up for a Fiat to crypto plus a crypto to crypto individual exchange platform(s). You must keep excellent records, and store your purchases off the exchanges after purchase to reliably secure your investmentskeep excellent records. You must do your own homework, and this is where the risk escalates. Even with a sound business model and diligent work toward a real problem solution, Crypto project can still fail. Once the Masses have simpler access, the big gains to be made will start to disappear.

US development pales compared to the plethora of global blockchain progress.
Now the CBOE has proposed a Crypto ETF, with a twist: it has offered insurance for its investors against loss or theft of their crypto currency acquisitions. Surely the SEC will have to consider this proposal seriously.

In the spirt of Gerald’s “anti-pappagaloism,” don’t take my word for it. Cointelegraph.com is a great place to start. Use Coursera to educate yourself on the underlying blockchain technology.

Dr. Martin Pall has done the most extensive research on this and is worth investigating.
To sum up his findings:
Exposure to microwave EMFs, like cellphones, causes massive mitochondrial dysfunction due to damage done by free radicals from peroxynitrite that also cause single and double stranded breaks in your DNA.
Excessive free radicals triggered by low-frequency microwave exposure from cellphones and Wi-Fi networks have been linked to chronic diseases such as cardiac arrhythmias, anxiety, depression, autism, Alzheimer’s and infertility.
Excessive calcium signaling produced by EMF exposures also has important roles in producing pathophysiological effects of EMFs including each of the effects listed above.

McCain did along with Hillary arm the syrian rebels who eventually joined Al qaeda. McCain ended up more of a Democrat then a Republican as he opposed almost everything Trump wanted.

I don’t think we’re taking into account the importance of long term capital gains. You have to hold something for at least a year to be eligible for that reduced tax burden. It’s been less than a year since these highs were hit. The people who had made a real killing on Bitcoin when it made its move, generally were holding it for several years, and benefitted from the reduced tax burden. If the highs were to be challenged, which of course is speculation, this would have great benefit as far as how much profits you can keep. Cryptocurrency isn’t going to go away; logically, it’s going to grow because there is a need for the ease of transactions.

The point, the cause of much of what we now classify as mental illness or nerve degeneration may be due to the body’s inability to obtain basic nutrients to process into needed biochemicals.

Gerald- As usual, your spot on in your commentary. Do Americans really have their heads in that deep in the sand? How and why is it that very few can see beyond what is put in front of them? The very few people I have engaged in conversation about what the prestitutes and their whoremasters (love your monikers as that describes them perfectly) are putting out there for the public to read is not accurate and more of a distraction from what is really going on in our world. The responses are baffling. Some of these folks are what I would call reasonably intelligent, but they just don’t get it. I feel isolated and concerned for when the shit does hit the fan, they will be the ones who will perish first as they believe that everything is just lovely and the government will take care of them.

So some questions I have Gerald are: first off, is this trend a concern to you? What do you feel of the global population as it currently stands? Is the more responsible road to increase, decrease, or maintain current population levels?
What’s the State’s proper role in this? Should it be looking to increase its population through various incentivizations as in the case of Japan, halt its population growth as in the case of, say, China, or allow its people to decide for themselves which way they’ll go?
You mention a significant investigation linking online pornography to male impotence. Similar to the state-sponsored anti-smoking campaigns past and present should governments be encouraging the youth to abstain from this addiction for health reasons or do you feel it is improper for a State to pursue this agenda? And finally, if you could link a source to the investigation discovering this correlation it would be much appreciated.

There has been an explosion of knitting for the past 10 years, or so. In 2005, Betsan Corkhill of the UK did a research study of the therapeutic effects of knitting. She is now the world’s expert on the use of knitting for improving health; physical and mental. Many 20 and 30 year olds have taken to knitting to alleviate their anxiety. Podcasts abound testifying to how knitting can aid in coping in the world’s fast changing environment. Teaching Your Brain to Knit is a podcast of two mature female professors who include in each episode a scientific study of the brain and knitting. This burst of not only “grandmother’s” do this craft has opened up new opportunities for young independent dyers of yarn, magazines, and huge attendances at fiber festivals, such as the New York State Sheep and Wool Festival (aka “Rhinebeck”), Edinburgh Yarn Festival (aka, “EYK”) and in the Scandinavian countries. Many people around the world are owning sheep to keep old breeds from extinct, learning to process fleeces, spin into yarn and dye with natural dyes, and learn techniques to protect the environment. Please contact me if further information will be of interest to you. Thank you.

Jonathan Cho raises some interesting points and this is his first article here where he explains his reasoning in more depth. But Bitcoin has gone through similar cycles before and for some reason always come out stronger, why should the current cycle necessarily be the last one?

And I’m not sure if Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies as a whole have to be better than or equal to gold to be successful in terms of adoption (at least in the medium term). After all, fiat money has had quite a good run even with all its shortcomings. We live in an age of technology and one of the trends covered by the Trends Journal is the ‘cashless society’. And if I have to go cashless I’d prefer a system where I enjoy privacy and the most control over my finances. So, maybe cryptocurrencies are just a natural progression of money tailored to the needs of the times we live in.
Also, the idea of governments ‘hacking’ cryptocurrencies, the evidence seems to be to the contrary with a number of countries having declared bitcoin as legal tender.
And comparing bitcoin mining to alchemy or to ‘creating money out of thin air’ is just plain wrong. It takes a considered amount of effort in form of computational power and electrical energy to create bitcoin, another characteristic where bitcoin and gold are similar.

With regards to Brazil, Mr. Celente. As I mentioned on another post, I am a Brazilian who fled the country in disgust 13 years ago.

Even though it’s mandatory, I haven’t voted since. I refuse to take part on this freak show, like you rightfully call it.

But just for your information, the previous labor governments stole so much and drove the country to such a state of chaos that millions of brazilians were on social media asking for the return of the military to government. That tells you the level of desperation and mess the country is currently in. Millions see the military as the only solution to impose some level of order and discipline.

I think it’s a stupid solution, I hate the military, but just saying: don’t be surprised if it happens and don’t assume it’s against people’s will. There are millions of everyday Brazilians who are thanking God for seeing so many military personnel in charge of the nation.

There is a considerable difference between gold and bitcoin. Physical gold actually exists in the earth and mining it is a hit and miss affair. The mining of bitcoin on the other hand is not really mining eventhough that’s what they call it. The computational power and electrical energy that is being used is “creating” it, (not mining) since bitcoin is in itself just an invention unlike gold. So the comparison to alchemy is a justified one.

The beauty of gold does not consist in its physicality in the sense of what they eye perceives, but purely in its suitability as a store of value. It is naturally suited for the purpose of trade between humans making the exchanges that occur just and fair. It’s beauty consists in its natural ability to administer justice, but justice itself is what constitutes real beauty and is something valued by all men, the use of natural gold is just a vehicle to that end when it comes to trading. And to remove gold from being part of the daily trading activities of man is a perversion of the natural order.

In terms of utility, those who argue against gold by saying that it is hard to cart around in large quantities and therefore not very useful is also another bogus bullshit argument in my opinion. There could very well be natural utility in that fact because it acts as a limit on the materialistic desires of man who because of those materialistic desires, is destroying the earth, killing innocent humans in a fight for resources and has supplanted his search for higher things. In Plutarch’s biography of Lycurgus the Spartan lawgiver, they say that what he did was introduce lead as the official currency of Sparta. Now this may sound stupid to us but his purpose was so that it would be so heavy to cart around that people would refrain from using it as much as possible and so he stripped the citizens of all their vanity and materialistic desires which encouraged them to devote themselves to the pursuit of what is greater and the reputation of the Spartans speak for themselves. Now gold is nothing like lead and is more than sufficient for everyone to be able to use it easily to supply their needs but if our desires are limitless, then of course it won’t be sufficient, so let’s introduce paper which can be easily corrupted and other digital currencies for the purpose of our excessive bullshit.

I have taught in public schools for 20+ years, and concur. We are sending too many young people to college. Other countries limit access to college to 15-16% while supporting alternative education paths. We need carpenters, electricians, plumbers, truck drivers, farmers etc. We don’t need to send young people to college who have Ds and Fs in 8th and 9th grade.

Most German high school students already have an employable apprentice skill developed when they graduate. In the US we abolished Home Economics and replaced it with Foreign Languages.
Most craft employers report that young people are increasingly unwilling to work, learn and be patient while they develop employable skills.

Finally, in western public education we have allowed our educational work force to become almost solely the arena of well-meaning women-our children have too few male role models. Personally, I think we need more young men to work at being good fathers and more young men to become good teachers so all our children can grow up with well-balanced emotions and skills.

Our depressed young people need to get off the self-pity wagon and go build something useful, instead of playing video games and smoking strange weed. Perhaps Jordan Peterson’s 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos would be helpful for many.

As a teacher I see our girls do really well in school and life, but our boys are increasingly not fitting into the world we have created. We really have a boy and young men crisis in the world today.
It’s a complex issue that deserves our attention at all levels.

Thanks for the article. I live in Europe and I have a slightly different take on this new development. In Europe, at least, it is as if the Saudis have prepared the terrain for the these waves of immigration. 90% or so of the immigrants are muslims, and it is often only when they live in Europe that they are taught in their new schools and in their new mosques the Saudi version of Islam. As a result, unlike previous waves of immigration, these new migrants are taught not no integrate with Europeans. In fact they are taught to distrust everything the West represents. Of course, this does not apply to every single muslim. But overall, these communities live among themselves, separated from their hosts. This is especially evident in the U.K. where whole towns and cities, are split in half. Unfortunately, the demographic pressures are working against the local, Christian populations.
I would argue that the islamization of the West is a trend that cannot be dissociated from any discussion about migration. With Europe being much more exposed than the USA. And it is my belief that the strong wave of populism in Europe is mostly a reaction to Islam that all Europeans are now beginning to perceive as an existential threat.

I have a very hard time understanding/believing gold as an eventual/perpetual go-to “resource” for the very simplistic reason that, as a resource, it would be likewise (by necessity and definition) fought over – literally.
Thus, it makes zero sense that nation-states would want to collect/horde/be-dependent-upon, something that they would/will have to spend vast sums of time, capital and labor to collect and protect. In essence, they’d be building a military literally built with gold, and with every bullet fired – be giving away the very thing they went to war for. In other words, swapping gold wars for oil wars makes no sense. And ironically, you’d be using both – to dig in the ground – to acquire both. The idiocy and hypocrisy of this is…well, so inanely human.
It just makes no sense anymore to be so dependent upon volatility. It makes no sense anymore to spin ones wheels thusly when assets/investments, such as a highly trained population, can innovate generational products and services which every citizen can “own” (i.e. purchase/consume) and thus supplant most – if not all, of that same volatility.
If I was “emperor,” I’d declare my kingdom’s moment, our “Sputnik Moment”…our “Moonshot,” to be – not the “American Dream.” Instead, I’d declare this moment to be “The American Talent Epoch.” I’d declare a national race…a race for talent. And I’d put “our” money precisely where “our” future is; in “Progressivity.”

Oh I wouldn’t worry about this too much, global electricity and data network blackout is bound to happen sooner or later. In 1859, there was solar storm so powerful that it knocked out telegraphs everywhere:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_storm_of_1859

Today’s energy infrastructure is so shoddy and overloaded at the same time, that a similar storm will knock out most electricity grids for at least 6 months. High voltage transformers are particularly vulnerable and they’re hard to replair or replace. Data networks will probably burn out more or less completely, because they’re built on cheap Chinese crap hardware with minimal protection against overvoltages. Restoring them will take even longer, because you can produce advanced electronics without electicity. And now get the best part: a storm of similar magnitude missed Earth just by a few hours back in 2012:

Amory Lovins of the Rocky Mountain Institute wrote a fabulous book called Natural Capitalism – and developed a ‘hyper car’ that uses carbon fiber as the body material – it may be more expensive as a material BUT it can actually replace the steel frame by being formed into a very strong shape. It is also designed to be far more aerodynamic. All these make it far lighter and fuel efficient. Present day steel cars using gas are about 1% efficient! Most of the gas goes to move the car. Present day electric cars get up to 5%..and mostly run on coal.

Production costs of the hypercar are a fraction of those of steel models and require far smaller production runs to break even. 50% of the cost of cars is in marketing because of this factor

But guys, let’s get real. Everyone driving everywhere in 15-20 long monsters owned privately HOWEVER built is a recipe for planetary destruction, huge personal stress (financial and time to travel anywhere) – and chronic congestion. Its a glorious con – and by buying into it we all imprison ourselves in massive cost and stress. We spend a fortune on these monsters, and have no leisure time left

Even one person electric cars are NOT the solution for most travel.

In America, where governments are asleep at the wheel, and public transport is a joke, the best solutions are presented by on-line companies – WAISO for carpooling, LYFT for ‘mini-buses that tailor routes to what is wanted and TAURO which does short-term rentals person to person. I don’t like the fact that they will become fat monopolies and would love to see community alternatives, but let’s admit that they are leaving the decrepit public transportation of corrupt governments in the dust!

These are powerful trends Gerald! Our present public transport is built on 19th century technology – rigid scheduled had to be observed because communications were lousy. Now the Internet and the technology behind phones gives us incredible power to redesign transport – and other aspects of our lives. These are as important as techie car design if we are to survive on this planet.

in 1971 a book was published on the motor car in England, with a quote ‘what doth it profit a man to own two cars and find that it is quicker to walk”. I bet scooter and electric bike riders in LA are zooming past our $50,000 monsters crawling at 3 miles an hour – and taking most of the driver’s wages and time to buy and maintain – just so they can get to work to make that money! What a glorious release all of these new technologies – and yes all forms of sharing ARE a wonderful technology! – represent in a country with ZERO social action. But beware – the present internal combustion monsters when individually owned, and traded in every 3 years, probably create 30-40% of employment (the same amount of global warming they create!). So we may get to the point much quicker where unemployment spikes…. oh my god all of that leisure time and release of stress. No no no – we will find some other absurdity to ‘help the economy’. Or maybe not?? Also beware, because they are all run by corporations, who will exploit their monopoly power – and give sharing a bad name.

I disagree with your last paragraph.(I am a mother of three– 2 millenials and one Gen Z, who were raised internationally; ergo I have gotten and continue to get a lot of frank exposure to these age groups). I don’t believe they are challenging their parents’ generation as far as relationships go–they are avoiding coupledom because they experienced first-hand the economic and emotional catastrophy of divorce and the resultant confusion regarding their identity and the lack of safety in their world. They were raised by my selfish generation (my generation is the one that was taught the joys of instant gratification via credit-card use), which spoiled the millenials —thanks to advertising–in our efforts to : A) Live the good life, and B) Give that “Good Life” to our kids, no matter the actual cost. then came 2008 and more unexpected suffering. EVERY child I have ever spoken to wanted a home with both parents present… having had their faith shaken regarding that ideal, no wonder they gravitate toward friendship. Coupledom and parenthood are terrifying prospects!

With regard to young women and “empowerment”–what a bunch of hooey! From what they tell me, these young women throw themselves away on casual experiences because again, they have been programmed by the media “to erase borders”, to “be cool” and experiment…which leaves them empty and desperately longing for something more meaningful..but they don’t knowhow to go about getting that unidentifiable something, and I’m not talking about sex. They use sex as a means of trying to connect, and these young women all tell me, defensively,”I’m in control of my sexuality”, but nothing could be further from the truth. These kids don’t understand Love. They may be afraid of it.

Sorry, wasn’t able to finish my comment. My point is this: just because people aren’t committing to each other does not mean they are not having sex.
You make no mention of the porn epidemic and the amount of research indicating that the exposure to porn (at shockingly young ages due to the internet), has rendered thousands of young people impident/ unable to experience pleasure without porn. Young women state that they are not sure if they feel anything at all during sex because they feel pressured to act like a porn star.
So women demanding better sex? What is better sex? I think you conclusion was half-baked. What is the positive in a loveless world?

I thought the US attacked Iraq and Libya because they wanted to replace the Petro-dollar with gold for oil. Iran is doing the same which might explain the increasing hostility to it. It seems the US invaded or instigated violent overthrow shortly after such announcements. I think Venezuela is also trying to reduce it’s reliance on the petrodollar for pricing and paying for oil. Perhaps this is also a component, protecting the demand for USD?

I understand your argument against Bitcoin. But you are not mentioning technology like Ethereum and Cardano which are platforms that are useful for building daPPs. Bitcoin is just a currency, but the blockchains like Ethereum and Cardano have extremely useful aspects to them when their technologies are “Proof of Stake”. In your next article, I’d love to see you focus on those 2nd and 3rd generation blockchains and how they compare to gold (assuming adoption increases), rather than focus on old tech like Bitcoin.

denorris9, Jonathan has written about Ethereum before and his verdict is even more damning. 🙂 But, imo, there is no point in comparing it to gold, there are completely different purposes for each.

Jonathan makes some good points, but I think he ignores others. Bitcoin may not be a store of value, but cryptocurrencies have other desired characteristics when it comes to fast, private, anonymous transactions. I would argue most people, who hold cryptos now, are simply speculators expecting an increasing adoption and hence higher prices. The whole crypto-world is just launching, and as it stands, bitcoin is a central part of it. The number of bitcoin transactions has increased throughout 2018 despite falling prices (https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-transactions.html). It may not look like it, but the volatility of bitcoin has decreased as well over time (https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/volatility-index/).
Also, there are 2000+ cryptos in existence, but a lot of them have very specific use cases and don’t compete with bitcoin. Arguably, a lot of these alt-coins will turn out useless and disappear. There is also the argument that at a certain point technology is not the deciding factor any more if a currency will succeed or fail, but the network effect, i.e. how many users a cryptocurrency has.

I read that there are currently 35 million verified crypto-users compared to ca. 500 million stock-buyers. Many traditional finance firms currently invest in the crypto-space, I would imagine they will convince at least some of their clients to invest in cryptos.

Dear Mr Cho –
I am a gold bug who also has become a firm believer that Bitcoin is not only money, but is probably the hardest money ever invented by mankind – even harder than gold [as compared to easy government fiat money]. I was going to spend a few hours writing up a rebuttal to your Bitcoin articles … because I used to think the same way you do about Bitcoin. Instead, I will just recommend you read the book The Bitcoin Standard by Dr Saifedean Ammous. I had been researching Bitcoin for about 4 years but what was missing for the average person, until now, was a book like The Bitcoin Standard. It completely changed my understanding on what is Bitcoin. The Bitcoin Standard is as significant a book if not more so, than Edward Griffin’s The Creature from Jekyll Island or David Stockman’s The Great Deformation.

Excellent story. First hand experience, a very lucky man, making the world a better place. Not to compare, but my life stopped suddenly, broken shoulder socket, rotated cuff, labrel, 3 fractures in back and an ALL tear. Oxycodon drugs and a swimming zombie. Did withdraw cold turkey (72 hrs of hell). Today? Infused editable in evening knocks me cold and pain free. If not? My brain would be cooked, and my liver spotted.

Best thing I ever did was AMA California doctor’s. Finally found what worked with my body. Explained as “no two chemistry sets the same”

Don’t tell folks as somewhat legal, but paperwork dries 6-4-19. And the county prosecutor states would not bring charges…but, less than 3 months. My point? Feel my pain, and opioid free. Priceless.

This story hits home to me as I am part Colombian. The country is beautiful. I try to go to visit my family every few years. Here’s the problem. The cia and dea run the country. It’s unfortunate but we sold out to them. And they smartly use the FARC and other guerillas to suppress the natives from reaping the benefits of their land and labor. “Confessions of an economic hitman” ring very true with Colombia. I hope the people will one day be able to take their country back.

True. Not understood as a deeper sociological cause of the ‘insanity’ among the voting public is the loss over centuries of the ‘religious’ turning of personal attention from inner, individual awareness of our drives, ‘passions'(a classical Eastern Christian teaching, lost in the Western ‘Christian’ life) that puts our attention instead on the ‘external’ world. This makes us all subject to the manipulations of media propaganda and excited hedonistic desires as the only meaning of life. Where is self-control, reflection and denial of destructive impulses? Feel good now! Do whatever we desire. This is opposite of traditional values that built our modern social contracts. We are confused and go to the psychiatrists for answers, created out of individual ideologies and world views untested by millennia-long cultural experience. The tragedy of unreflective selfishness is growing in America.

I agree with Max Payne, vote No.

I have been watching this Cannabis thing unfold for the last couple of years with more than a little curiosity. I have so many questions and a few concerns. The questions will answer themselves in time. My concerns, since I am one of those “millions” that had been incarcerated for being involved in the marijuana business in the 80’s, the fact that myself and many others whom have been tagged with these felonies for life and have been denied opportunities due to the conviction of the drug laws at that time, what will become of these records? Will we be permitted to engage in that industry in any capacity? Or will the punishment continue? I would venture to say that a small percentage of us have more knowledge in this industry than the majority of people involved currently.

Why do politicians flip flop on their positions, well, I think the answer to the whys lies in the power of the almighty dollar. Look at just about any issue where these politicians have changed their positions, it’s obvious to whom their loyalty is given. It’s certainly not because of you and I.

My elderly mother has been addicted to sleeping pills for 10 years…bad side effects. Six months ago my friends husband baked her CBD oil cookies. She takes half a cookie 45 minutes before bed and sleeps like a baby with no side effects. Today I asked my elderly neighbor to drive me to the eye doctor. In the way home she wanted to stop at our local pharmacy to pick up a cream recommended by her doctor for her neuropathy. It was CBD. I had shoulder surgery last Wednesday and was on narcotics for two days until i couldn’t take the itching drowsiness anymore. I switched to Ibuprofen & and asked my friend for some cookies. Now less than a week after surgery I’m not even taking the ibuprofen. I worked in law enforcement my whole life and never took or smoked anything. Now I’m a huge proponent of medical marijuana. My point being now that its being used in mainstream America, use will increase exponentially and laws will pass.

Ugg..prison for pot?!! They used to burn women at the stake for simple accusations of witchcraft. I have an old neighbor who’s son did simple time for nothing but repeated “joints” busts. ruined a kids life for smoking pot? Recently in Missouri our Governance released a LIFE IN PRISON for getting caught with an ounce of weed “the old 3 strikes you out” LIFE! 3 kids and a job. Watched the release, the story could bring a tear to a grown man.

Truly I believe it’s the people’s will that expunged for marijuana crimes will be here. Have never understood why prison for pot. Especially simple possessing. I hope you get to see that day, soon.

CBD is finally being accepted for adults, but many are unaware of the medicinal use of CBD (non-psychoactive) for children. “Charlotte’s Web” was able to help a little girl (named Charlotte) with a disease causing dozens of grand mal seizures every day for years. No known medical treatment helped until CBD oil with extremely low THC content was tried. She went from 200-300 seizures per week to 2-3 per MONTH. What is criminal is all the people over many decades who could have found relief from all sorts of conditions, avoiding toxic drugs and surgery, but were not given the chance to live a full life. DAMN the politicians and medical industry for destroying people’s lives, including those rotting in prison for possession of a lousy baggy of marijuana! What a deranged society we live in!

It IS a hard world and they fell into every trap! That Maduro has any support after the horrors of hyperinflation says a huge amount for him and the resilience of the Venezuelan people. The coup will not be easy and could even backfire on the US! When will we learn what balanced ‘development’ really means?

Martin Pall’s research on EMFs is essential. The real dangers go way beyond the heating effect which governments and corporations have successfully downplayed. He now has a book on the very subject that you can read online.
Here is an excerpt: We have already discussed two issues that are essential to understanding 5G. One is that pulsed EMFs are, in most cases, much more biologically active than are non-pulsed (often called continuous wave) EMFs. A second is that the EMFs act by putting forces on the voltage sensor of the VGCCs, opening these calcium channels and allowing excessive calcium ions to flow into the cell. The voltage sensor is extraordinarily sensitive to those electrical forces, such that the safety guidelines are allowing us to be exposed to EMFs that are something like 7.2 million times too high.
Dr. Mercola has a great interview with Martin Pall which helps understand the implications: https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2017/09/03/electromagnetic-fields-harmful-effects.aspx

pistolstamen is correct about Professor Pall. He is noted in my previous/first article for TJ at https://trendsresearch.com/stories/the-government-5gwireless-industry-perpetuate-scientific-fraud,6377?

Despite a profusion of research revealing harmful non-thermal effects beginning in the 1950’s, rhetoric to the effect that no precise biochemical or biophysical mechanism, or target, had been identified has been exploited to dismiss positive findings and warnings, which were well enough understood by the mid-1970’s to have prevented the 1992-3 introduction of 2G.

Science doesn’t know the precise mechanism of gravity, but no one insists that studies showing its effects are inconclusive. So Pall is important for identifying one key “mechanism,” namely the VGCC.

But credit must be given also to Dr George Carlo on the pulsing matter, for its effect on cell membrane transport channels, which shut down and also stop intercellular communication. Carlo directed the “WTR,” a five-year $28.5m study in the 1990’s that the Industry was obliged to fund after the issue of brain cancer came up on a 1993 Larry King Live® Bottom line, Industry/Government opted not to convey this information to the wider scientific community and the public. Tom Wheeler took this knowledge with him to the FCC, where he maintained his silence. PT

Statement from the article: “first generation whose connection to the world around them is principally defined by the smart phone.”
Solution: This generation’s connection to the world around them SHOULD BE principally defined by their FAITH in their Creator.”

Statement from the article: “Hiding in their devices is a good way to escape the uncertain world around them.”
Solution: Try praying the “Anima Christi”:

“Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
WITHIN THY WOUNDS, HIDE ME.
Permit me not to be separated from Thee.
From the malignant enemy, defend me.
In the hour of death, call me.
And bid me come to Thee,
That with Thy Saints I may praise Thee,
Forever and ever. Amen.”

What a miraculous prayer for any human problem. Hiding in a cell phone can not compare to hiding in the wounds of Christ.

Something to think about!

This travesty has arisen in great part due a fundamental collective societal mental illness generally unrecognized as such. I call it alienation from Nature. One could consider this the hallmark of the “developed” world, aka Western “Civilization.” The latter IS a psychospiritual imbalance – instilled and/or reinforced. Earth is just a hunk of resources to be raped and poisoned at will and whim. Insanity.

And it goes deeper than high-tech, wireless, etc to technology per se – or better, technology abuse. “The Mayan Factor – Path Beyond Technology,” by José Argüelles has taken heavy criticism, but it insightfully describes advanced (pre-“high”) technology as a feedback loop of artificial dependencies, leading to [normalized] neurotic and addictive behavior. Already poisoned by technology, then, the Nature-alienated are primed for what the above article is saying – just as kids on Ritalin® are predisposed to cocaine addiction.

I’d say the morbid turning point was the Industrial Revolution in combination with electricity and electromagnetics abuse.

Similarly, Marshall McLuhan: “We shape our tools and then our tools shape us.” So the somewhat speculative probability is that grotesque consumer techno-worship is a pathologic/addictive syndrome significantly provoked by resonance between various technological iterations and aspects of collective mental illness not recognized as such (normalized) due to manipulation of Nature-alienated cultures by the power Elite.

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” – Krishnamurti

“Only by the most outrageous violation of ourselves do we come into conformity with a society bent on its own destruction.” – R.D. Laing

“Smart” is perpetrator euphemism for Monumentally Stupid. It relies on WiFI, which is even worse than cell phone radiation. And there’s NO SAFE DOSE, despite what you might hear from “concerned” scientists.

“Before iPads, smartphones and related technology became mainstream barely a decade ago, there were virtually no studies or analyses that examined how use of these devices would alter the human experience.” But Sean Patrick admitted that the creators of Facebook knew they were creating something addictive and harmful, even without wireless tech.

“…not only increasingly rob us of our humanity, but put the control of how we govern our own lives in the hands of those who created the technology and the corporations and governments who bought it, sold it and shaped it to their interests.” Indeed.

But it gets even worse, because there’s a global human-control system rapidly gestating in the technosphere that will ultimately exercise direct control of personal “choices.” In other words, there will be little to no “governing.” http://www.aclu.org/sites/default/files/pizza/images/screen.swf Ultimately, cyborg heaven – you WILL be assimilated. Technology already exists to do this (nanotech, for example), and it’s foundational apparatus is wireless technology. In China now, workers are required to wear caps that relay their emotional state to the management. One day soon, “adjustment” will be automatic, with AI in control.

Many people I talk to are under the impression this tech was developed for telecom/Internet. Not so. The military developed it as a stealth weapon for inducing illness. Was adapted virtually unchanged to 2G, which arrived in the US 1992-3. Shortly thereafter, health problems arose. But the larger purpose is the control system.

Important to note that effects are/can be cumulative, just as with ionizing radiation. Thus, having been exposed for nearly 3 decades, we’re on the cusp of a horrific pathological epiphany. Welcome to the “Idiotized Society”: Conditioned dependence for prosperity and survival upon self-destructive and suicidal ways and means. The Grand Oxymoron of techno-civilized life.

“As Baby Boomers die away, millennials are poised to become the largest U.S. population group. If their health outlook doesn’t improve, the demands on the U.S. health care system could push health insurance premiums beyond affordability if current fee-for-service medicine and a reliance on drugs persist.”

Health care costs will be a concern only for a short period, if at all, because the much greater threat of wireless technology is to the environment, which is going down in flames as we speak, and in no small part due to wireless radiation.

Not to mention the most unsettling fact that many people who understand the full implications of this tech, still use the **!@^#%@^#* devices!

In re the Forecast: Same principle. The psychological factors and fears that are said to drive them to the phones, even if true, are actually red herrings – having effect only because the afflicted don’t ‘get’ the more fundamental issue in play – due to adult ignorance and the evil programming of the perpetrators – the ‘very-survival’ fear, never mind how ‘troubled’ that existence may be.

“In an atmosphere of such instability, demand for gold, the ultimate safe-haven asset, will dramatically increase.”

I respectfully disagree that gold is the “ultimate safe haven.” It’s a RELATIVE haven within the arguably insane game of capitalism, Conehead consumerism, and equity & commodity markets. Insane is defend here as (conditioned) behavior that is self-destructive and ultimately suicidal. The system is suicidal whether or not it crashes before it crashes the planet. Please also note that the atmospheres of instability are no accident, but are Elite manipulations or the results of them. Terrorism, for example.

The following remarks were posted as comment on a Trend Alert sent around on 6 June 2019: https://trendsresearch.com/trend-alerts/?utm_source=Trends+Journal+Subscribers&utm_campaign=9eb1c1b21f-20190606_TASUB&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_a78a874f30-9eb1c1b21f-62605373
Rather then reinvent the wheel, I’ll just post it again:
“I suggest the whole economic system is a giant brainwash/con, with instability built in, so that it can be shaken almost at will to create transfers of wealth. Not to mention that a citizenry facing threat and upheaval is much easier to manipulate and control.

“Of wealth transfer, witness the 1929 crash and Depression, willfully caused by Wall Street and the innate crime that is the Elite’s death grip on nations and people: Private/central banking/interest bearing debt (politely called the Fed). Others have pointed out what is said here: “I am afraid the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the banks can and do create money. And they who control the credit of the nation direct the policy of Governments and hold in the hollow of their hand the destiny of the people.” — Reginald McKenna, British Chancellor of the Exchequer as Chairman of the Midland Bank, addressing stockholders in 1924 That is, for the most part, if we had no debt, there would be no money 🙂

“Another great con, which ties into what planismenos says, is that institutionalized government per se, is an anti-tribal, patriarchal Elite construct for mass herding and control. Anti-tribal means easily infiltrated by Elite operatives – traitors posing as patriots. Just so, Capitalism and Socialism/Communism are constructs in which the Elite function perfectly well, as they do in any form of institutionalized government. (Be it known that Elite-servant Wall Street financed the Bolshevik Revolution?) [[Added for current issue: And also the Third Reich.]]

“It’s not difficult to make the case that what’s been done to the planet to bring Western ‘Civilization’ to where it is today is solid proof that where we are is not a good place to be. And pursuit of gold has played no small part. [[Added for current issue: Most mining operations (extractivism) are massively destructive and toxic. On average, the gold in a plain wedding band costs 20 tons of toxic mine waste, merely environmentally dumped. So I suggest that gold and all ‘precious’ metals (a grand psyop) dealers and hoarders be required to be responsible for and receive the waste as well. Maybe have it dumped on their front lawn 🙂

“We rarely see societal developments and conventions that shape our way of life as examples of insanity that has been ‘normalized’ — symptoms of the ‘Idiotized Society’: Conditioned dependence for prosperity and even survival upon self-destructive and suicidal ways and means. A grand oxymoron.

“‘Only by the most outrageous violation of ourselves do we come into conformity with a society bent on its own destruction.’ – R.D. Laing

“‘It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.’ – Krishnamurti

“Maybe we need to consider that we’re so far down the wrong road, not just politically and governmentally, but in our fundamental beliefs and sense of reality—who and what we are— population levels, and overall way of life, that attempting to rescue society – government, economics, finance, education, business, etc – prior to a remarkable evolution in mass consciousness will be like trying to fix a watch with a pipe wrench.

“Preventing spiritual growth is a primary goal of the manipulators. What they fear most is widespread realization that the reality they’ve been selling and nurturing puts us on death row in a (now wireless) mind-prison—even when it has appeared to work properly and been entertaining.

“For success/prosperity to become universal safely, it would have to take on new meaning, centered upon harmony with Nature, not hoarding what is called wealth. In other words, society would have to become sane, or at least behave so. A simpler, slower, more harmonious and Earth-loving, less techno-addicted and dependent, less self-obsessed, more agriculturally based (organic), and cottage-industry way of life is strongly indicated. Sustainable being, not ‘sustainable development,’ a psyop of the manipulators to maintain Earth-sacrifice for wealth, power and control. (Sorry for the length).”

Bottom line: What gold does or does not do will be virtually irrelevant when the real crunch comes that the pathological, avarice-driven system is hurtling toward. When that day comes, I’d rather have a cellar full of superfoods than a warehouse full of gold. Or any item of psyop/fiat value, such as ‘precious’ metals, stones and so on.

Even if we do not use cell phones presently we may be forced to use them because we will not be able to survive without joining the majority. Cell phones may replace even credit cards and the fools that run our gov. want to get rid of cash. The Puerto Rican disaster did not enlighten them to the practical benefit of cash since credit cards and cell phones were useless. I blame the people for voting in a bunch of stupid people to “represent” them. They are representing those who put money in their pocket and using the taxpayers money to enrich their benefactors.

Gold is going to go higher,…

Gold is going to go higher, a lot higher. Strange how some are panicking and wondering if they should sell their gold when gold loses 50$ in a few days. What is crazy is that people don’t look at history and what has happened to gold in the past. During the 2009 to 2011 “gold bull run”, gold went down by at least 9% three times a year before going back up and beating another record. We all know that things are getting worse and will probably never recover completely so why doubt gold ? If you’re a day trader or you’re concerned about the price because you buy one day and sell it the next or the week after, than yes you could be concerned, but if you’re a medium to long term investor, than you should have no worries and should see this play out. If you had bought an ounce of gold 20 years ago it would be worth five times more today. Has the Dow Jones or Nasdaq gone up by as much ?

Hi Bruce,

Quite correct — when it comes to anti-tribal, patriarchal, institutionalized government (IG), an Elite construct for mass herding and control – all forms.

But there is always “government” in human culture (and necessary to protect freedom), even if not written down or spoken. The following is an excellent documentary, in my view a must-watch for every IG-enslaved human. It includes a very good description of the (wiped out) unwritten Iroquois ‘government,’ a truly functional, representative one enhancing people power. “Psywar” goes back to the Founding and, among other things, reveals how the Bill of Rights arose (not assuming you don’t know 🙂 It makes the case that so-called democratic governments are propaganda-based psyops. And I suggest they’re corruptions designed to be further corrupted. Also, that the US is a shining example of the fact that techno-civilization’s ‘progress’ is one of genociding already-free nations to create the illusion of freedom. metanoia-films.org/psywar

So glad I have been buying 200 hundred dollars worth of grammage gold but mainly silver ounce bars and coins 99.9999% for the past 11 years now this is why I can not afford to subscribe on a limited budget to anyone even the best like trends .. But I have taken his ideas and put them to work for me ,a nest egg for when everything hits rock bottom I have had a liver transplant and can not afford to go without my meds for any length of time, two weeks max, before it starts to reject .and die a slow agonizing painful death.

If the West (US, Israel) is…

If the West (US, Israel) is going to attack Iran, they better do it quick, with the $75B in daily lending to the major banks totaling almost $2T by October 10. When this feeding ends which happens to be the day after Yom Kippur and you know how these religious dates are used to create major events I expect the major crash to happen on this date Oct. 9. Just a prediction of course and the US markets will crash into the greatest depression ever that is already in progress. The US Military is grossly overvalued and overspent on weapons for decades. With We Work fraud and ouster of CEO , GE Accounting Fraud, the GM strike, Michigan laying off tens of thousands of employees and Cook Travel (GB) closing its doors, the chips are falling.

Jim Willie made mention in his latest newsletter (September) of the massive hoard of gold that Iran has. It seems the Shah promised it to America when he sold out to the Cabal during the coup. Of course Iran has told America where to get off when they tried to collect … so the crippling sanctions have nothing to do with Iranian nuclear weapons. We are indeed living in unprecedented and history changing times.

There is a war of religious factions within the world not generally understood by most of us in the west.

Whether we are using them or they are using us really makes no difference to most of the residents within the borders of the United States. The benefits of the empire have destroyed the economy of the non elite.

And interweaving through all this, the positions of authority and power within our Federal Government held by persons legally holding multiple citizenships.

There exists deep resentment over the ridicule and destruction wrought upon communities people once built and no longer are allowed by the destruction of their economic choices.

The repo blow up is very…

The repo blow up is very important. While we all can admit that valuations are crazy and that there are significant worries in the real economy that apparently doesn’t pop the bubble.

What pops the bubble is the lack of confidence. So long as people believe the bullshit then the bubble will continue onward.

The fed understands this. They stopped trying to be monetarist a long time ago and now are false confidence pushers.

And people know better, but hubris gets the better of them. They think they can find a greater fool to buy this shit they’re pushing.

So the big deal is that the confidence has been hit hard. The evidence is the repo market. Primary dealers are choosing not to sell into the market even though they would make profits by doing so. The reason they are leaving money on the table is anyone’s guess. But the logic is clear -1 they are afraid of something and lack the confidence that the market and fed need.

Will this be the canary in the mine? I tend to think so…

There are so many things…

There are so many things wrong with this idea it’s hard to know where to start. But let’s begin with the toxicity factor of surrounding yourself with plastic. Now, obviously, much depends on the type of plastic, but anything originally flexible, especially, will be outgassing toxic plasticizers, such as pthallates, until the house disassembles itself into powder, or microplastic, which is now raining out of the sky to be breathed, and into food and water to be ingested.

And PVC siding is just a little short of insane https://www.thespruce.com/cons-of-vinyl-house-siding-1821806

If it hasn’t been burned, the first molecule of plastic ever made is still with us. It never biodegrades. It can be recycled only a limited number of times. Another questionable practice is recycling into plastic clothes. It’s an energy field we shouldn’t enclose the body with.

Now, the kids are loaded with it https://www.nationofchange.org/2019/09/16/dangerous-levels-of-plastic-found-in-childrens-bodies-finds-new-study/

I realize this house is a prototype, but putting a very dark building out in the open like that will not only hasten the outgas/breakdown process, but, as so much human infrastructure does, including dark pavement, will exacerbate a warming planet https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=93&v=1EmBQcXr6ng

philsplace.bis suggests hemp. MUCH better idea. What to do with plastics? Well, for a start, drastically reduce application and manufacture toward zero. Then, instead of sending 20,000 satellites into orbit to blast the planet with life-negative microwave radiation, gather up as much plastic as you can and shoot it into the sun. Start with as much plastic as can be removed from the oceans. It’s going to continue to deteriorate into smaller and smaller pieces until the smallest ocean creatures will end up like the kids.

Ideas like this arise from the obstinate intention to continue a toxic, earth-liquidating way of life with one compensation after another, rather than instituting fundamental change. “Only by the most outrageous violation of ourselves do we come into conformity with a society bent on its own destruction.” – R.D. Laing

And, by the way, unless we do away entirely with wireless technology, among a few other things, demand for housing will drop dramatically – if you get the point https://trendsresearch.com/stories/the-government-5gwireless-industry-perpetuate-scientific-fraud,6377? — https://trendsresearch.com/stories/beyond-your-health-5g-wireless-technology-destroys-jobs-environments-liberties (I wrote both, btw).

War with Iran is inevitable.

In 2011 a young Saudi officer told me that in the future US will fight Iran in Iraq. It bothered me, but I knew he was right, that is goal of his leaders.

Zionists want the same thing.

And, I feel, the US military is extremely overconfident in its ability to “win” in Iran.

Trump has kept peace, despite his Tweets… however, I don’t think Peace is a concern after the elections of Nov 2020. Regardless of who is selected to be president.

Because this is the first edition of the new Weekly TJ I would like to add my observation here.

I don’t know how to write it and not sound negative, because I really appreciate the work of all the TJ-Team and wouldn’t like to hurt anybody. . Of course, I talk about my own opinion, but I got the impression that with the changes the quality really suffers a lot compared to the quality of the quarterly TJ

Newspapers are racing to provide information as soon as possible. The provided information, the text and format is of very poor quality. TJ has defended against this so far. Is it worth to participate in this dead-end race?

The navy is a reflection of society. We are receiving recruits who are fat already when they join. I don’t know how they get through boot camp but when they get to the ships they are obese. On the ship, the operational tempo is very high and stressful. Granted a lot of it is manufactured stress, but it is stress none the less. Sailors eat a lot because of the stress level. To boost morale, we have to have junk food, and energy drinks. Sailors have to work out on their own time, not during work hours. We do give Sailors healthy options but we can’t stop Sailors from eating junk food because it will destroy morale. Its a delicate balance we have to deal with.

There in lies the problem,…

There in lies the problem, you are an educated man and 80 – 85% are not. Fear is just a word used in these situations by those that FEAR for others.

I really wish I could get my story out there, but too boring for the main stream. I am prepared, not because I was college educated, but could feel what was happening. I knew in the mid 80s supply side and massive tax cuts to the rich would end badly. That was 2008 and had no idea they could PONZI right over it. That so many people can be so gullible.

I made 85k in 1995 as an industrial electrician. Today, I cannot find a job that pays 2/3 of that doing the same thing. You would think people would notice the changes. Yet Gen Z says you make great money if at 70K a year. That is almost a livable wage for one person and should be considered a poor paying job at best.

Those that run the Media, politics, FED, BIG business, biotech, and especially the Banksters have rigged the system via default moves that best help their own. There was or is no big Conspiracy out there where they get together and discuss it. As each does what is best for him and his business….i.e. a Carl Icahn, it hurts the masses.

This will not end well or easily. There will be no big market crash as before. The PPT, Mnuchin, Trump, FED, will not allow it and make no mistake about it, they are in total control of markets now. Algo’s buy and sell with over 50% under passive management. We, as stated by St. Louis FED President will follow the Japan play book. I heard James Bullard on CNBC say such, they edited it out of later replays. He said “Japan did it for 25 years, we can do it too. The FED just needs the ability to purchase stock directly” Basically he wants to Load the FED Coffers with Businesses, then sit on the boards of the biggest businesses controlling their output. Amazon, Google, Microsoft to name a few.

Not sure if true but have read the algo’s buy or sell on news, tweets, up and down. It is more than Ironic that each day it never falls too far. When it does, they stop the market, halt it for 5 sec. Without price discovery the market is never going to correct. The Problem with Bullards promise to KEEP IT GOING is we are NOT Japan.Japan takes care of their own people, they have a huge mfg. base, they build infrastructure with their money. We do none of this… All we do is borrow money, give much to the Govt, spend it and use that to boost GDP numbers. Then scream MAGA… It is going to be a long long fall and take time as they pull every trick out of the playbook.

I wonder if : via executive order Trump has told Mnuchin to use the PPT and the FED to purchase stocks ? Could this be possible ? That it was done in the name of “NATIONAL SECURITY” Anyone that knows of trumps past business practice should know that anything is possible. The line of the unlawful is there to be tested, to be glazed over and if needed crossed, then covered with millions via Attorney. There are people out there now that have been in that admin. and know what is happening and still they put fear of Trump over the good of the people and country.

I am new here and really sorry for the long rant. I just had to breath in a place that had educated people reading… I am at a loss as to how to protect my child, other than GOLD and SILVER bullion. How do I make sure she is fed after I die ?

I went to Walmart this weekend. This Walmart is off of a major Interstate in a major city and it is *always* packed no matter what time you go. This weekend, it was completely dead. Most of the cars were of the employees. There were only a few dozen customers in this huge Super Walmart, tops. The Walmart’s not in a very middle class area, so it’s not like they are overly reliant on EBT purchases at this location.

As I looked around the parking lot, all the other stores in the shopping center were pretty empty. Last week, they were packed. There were no special events in town and there was nothing, physically or operationally, unusual about the shopping center. Everything looked and operated normally, except there were no customers.

The only storefront that was packed was the marijuana dispensary.

I think they’ve added the straw that’s breaking the camel’s back of this economy with this impeachment craziness.

The reality is, that all of the tests are gauged so that they only report the degenerative condition when it is advanced enough to require the patient spend “sh_t tons” of money on procedures and drugs. All the current testing could easily be gauged to report the degenerative condition before it advances. But, there is no money in reporting early enough for someone to stop and think about how to get rid of it. This would create an awareness in the population to turn to lifestyle and diet as the culprit and fix things before it is too late. That would be horrible for the pharmaceutical cartel. So, don’t count on the test saving any lives.

In retrospect there were much more critical and life impacting changes going on that were not be covered by the media. The same is true today. This type of insight makes Gerald Celente the best trends forecaster. There is no need to really study this “reality show” , it is there to distract from what is really going on that is going to impact our lives.

Regarding ‘government…

Regarding ‘government repression’: The elderly retirees who are not and cannot be employed and forget to apply their IRA RMD due to illness, mental problems, alzheimer, dementia, or just plain ‘elderly moments of forgetfulness’ are being penalized with a 50% penalty. How can a government who says/implies that they are concerned about the well being of it’s citizens penalize those who have given much to build this country. This says to me that the current people in Congress and those un-elected have no conscience and simply don’t give a dam about the elderly. In my opinion the elderly should not be taxed unless they are rich. The biggest problem they face is running out of money before God calls them home. How can those elderly who are trying to live off of the interest of the little amount of money they have accumulated over the years survive on 1% interest. They either suffer or take huge risks trying to get a traditional 4 or 5 % interest in today’s economy. Maybe they will have to move to Mexico to survive!!! That is the thanks they get for all of their life long contributions and hard work. If there was true freedom and a true free enterprise/capitalistic system they most likely would not be hurting but in this disguised socialist non-free pinko society they are suffering from government repression. As Mr. Celente states: ‘where the earnings and profits are going to the 1%’ the po-people are getting shaffted daily. Don’t misunderstand me as I am not advocating more socialism or communism. What I am advocating is government fairness, freedom and honesty. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

But provoking wars for the MID? capitulating to Oil & Gas opening up preserves for drilling. Rolling back emissions, water discharge regs and anything else he can think of to protect our air and water? unleashing the banks further than what they already were? killing healthcare with absolutely no viable alternative? Tax cuts for the 1% Screw the middle class? Allowing, condoning the murder of a journalist? Withdrawl from treaties. America can no longer be relied on at all. He lies like he breathes. And what gets me no matter how blatant the lie, his supporters ignore them. Every single day!!! He’s a walking talking dumpster fire with the intellect of a 5 year old. he has to go. Like someone said somewhere “we’ve taken this anybody can be president thing a bit too far”.

If we added the downsides in, namely in general Earth-liquidation and toxicity associated with all phases from extractivism to disposal, few technologies would reach the positive side of the ledger. One is hard pressed to name any ecosystem crisis not tech sourced. Or any major disease, for that matter. Technology toxicity is monumental. It should be called “toxnology,” not technology.

The idiocy of it is what ol’ Al E. said about insanity. More technology is usually proposed as “solution” to problems cause by previous technology. Technomasturbation, as I call it, is the hallmark of a society predicated on normalized insanity (suicidal, that is). “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” – Krishnamurti Tech fascination is the Pied Piper’s instrument.

One assumes the “polymer” is plastic, in which he world is drowning. Kids are now full of microplastic. It’s raining down from the sky. It fills the oceans and ocean creatures. If it hasn’t been burned, the first plastic molecule ever made is still with us and will be always. It never biodegrades, but only breaks down into smaller and smaller particles (microplastics). We now drink, eat and breathe them. Sixties rock legend Frank Zappa didn’t know how right he was when he said “Plastic people.”

There’s so much plastic production/use momentum at this point, that even if “progress” with new materials would keep the planet safe, we don’t have the time to wait for it. Globally, less then ten percent of plastic is recycled. Widely used Polypropylene, for example, less than 1 percent. Projected market: $133.3bn by 2023. ONE plastic. The marketeers are smiling…at a death warrant.

An important question here: is there outgassing of poison chemicals from this polymer, as there is from plastics in general? Is it getting into the distillate? If so, shall we say poison water is better than no water or carrying clean water?

No matter, in the profoundly sick society, the only questions are, does it work and can it make money. Whereas, the Natives wouldn’t even implement the wheel because they knew it would wreck the planet. Techno-man? “Hey, there’s a virgin forest. Let’s turn it into toilet paper and make some dough!”

SO much ignorance exists…

SO much ignorance exists about wireless tech, due to MSM dereliction, poor investigation, and blind, addicted eyes turned. Such as, if the Danes, or anyone, thinks stopping 5G will save them, they’re doomed. Just ain’t so.

Example: this statement is totally misleading: “The group cited the installation was being done without conducting necessary tests to evaluate potential radiation harm from powerful 5G frequencies, particularly as it can affect pregnant women and young children.” Most “5G” frequencies across the nation will be the same old “powerful” frequencies in new clothing.

Also: “…no thanks to the fact that our children, nature and ourselves will act as the state’s experimental objects.” No experiment whatsoever. The psychopaths behind the wireless ‘revolution’ know exactly what they’re doing.

The entire tech is a terminal nightmare, as suggested in the linked article (which I originally wrote, btw, which is now credited to “admin”).

José Argüelles insightfully described advanced technology as a feedback loop of artificial dependencies, leading to [normalized] neurotic and addictive behavior. AI could be the end of that, however. If it gets out of hand, it may decide to subjugate or even do away with its creators, implementers, and the rest of us dog-slow thinkers.

He doesn’t need or want their payoffs to sell us out. Things would be so much worse if we had killary or another one of the commie, grifter, anti 2nd Amendment puppets.

But that’s just my opinion. ‘Think For Yourself’. That’s one of the beautiful things about the Trends Journal.

I also love & thank God for Gerald Celente. To me, he reminds me of a really smart & good friend you love & go way back with but you sometimes have very different opinions on things. Sometimes he tells you things you don’t want to hear but you need to hear. Sometimes you just have to agree to disagree & move on.

The addition of sugar into…

The addition of sugar into almost all processed and prepared foods and the replacement of natural fats and oils by refined “vegetable oils” (they are not not) in restaurant and ready to eat foods is the base cause of the fat epidemic.

The ketogenic diet is a version of the diet most Americans ate before the ” “healthy diet” “reforms” ” of the 1970’s forward, reforms that turn out to have been based upon outright fraud.

Read Gary Taubes, Nina Teicholz, Dr. Gary Lustig. They are also on YouTube.

And then the refined sugar and wrong fat diet (the so called modern and healthy diet) causes metabolic disorders and skyrocketing diabetes.

Did you know diabetes was a rare affliction before about 1900?

I know this works because I am now within normal BMI and am no longer pre diabetic by following the ketogenic diet, that is, eating as I did as a boy and young man in the 1950’s and 1960’s with extra emphasis on avoiding added sugar.

Have you seen the extensive news coverage of the lawsuits against Big Sugar and High Fructose Corn Syrup. You won’t. The news not covered is news that does not exist in our new paradigm.

There are fortunes made off selling you addictive swill and crap food and then the drugs to treat the resulting metabolic disorders. and more fortunes to intentionally maintain policy to prevent the provision of healthful and fresh food to markets accessible to most people.

Love the message, like the ItAm festival, but speaking of truth and what America is supposed to be about (which the Dog-and-Pony show called DC politics has long been dismantling), isn’t it about time we did away with Columbus Day?

I know what I was taught growing up, but now I’m thinking for myself, Geraldo. If Columbus were alive today, he’d be a murdering DC warhawk. Peace was not in his vocabulary. Riches for his Elite masters and the use of extreme cruelty to get was his game. Not to mention, “America” sounds more like the name of a real explorer Amerigo Vespucci.

Here’s a quote: “By 1542, policies of slavery, torture and murder and instituted by Christopher Columbus, aided and abetted by imported disease, resulted in the reduction of the Taino population on Hispaniola (Haiti/Dominican Republic) from about 8 million people [living in peace and perfect harmony with their environment. Population number varies depending on source, but is irrelevant] to about 200 – considered to be extinction. All told, it is probable that more than one hundred million native people were ‘eliminated’ in the course of Europe’s ongoing ‘civilization’ of the Western Hemisphere.” – Ward Churchill, former professor of ethnic studies, University of Colorado http://web.mit.edu/thistle/www/v9/9.11/1columbus.html

Good info. And it’s not just…

Good info. And it’s not just obesity and diabetes, but mental health among others.

It must be kept in mind, however, that one size does not fit all. Your results may not be what others will get. One has to find what suits his individuality. Please also keep in mind that cleansing/detoxing the inner terrain by targeted means, and especially maintaining restoring gut integrity, are as important as diet, maybe more so. It’s a poisoned world (and not by accident). Food is a key source but still only a fraction. Water and air also key.

We’re going to have to get a handle on the toxics of industry, commerce and consumerism. Estimated 100,000 unregistered chemicals in the environment. It’s the price of the way of life, fundamentally suicidal.

Also, the kind of light getting into one’s eyes is paramount.

But if we really want a healthy nation and world, and continuing ones, perhaps the biggest deal right now would be to rid ourselves of all wireless technology. It’s simply life-negative. There is NO WAY to live with it. https://trendsresearch.com/stories/ugly-undeniable-physics-and-biophysics and https://www.activistpost.com/2019/04/wireless-technology-ultra-convenient-but-not-for-survival.html

Basically all the tech they want to use to monitor every aspect of your private life will become necessary to make the new “microgrid” electricty structure work. The rolling blackouts and fires are a trojan horse for smart homes, which will be used for population control.

The one’s to pull the trigger would be completely anonymous and hiding in their gated bunkers (they already have been built in some mid-western areas, a few Million$ each in abandoned nuclear silos.)

Very well said! This is a hard conversation and very difficult problem to address.

The problem was created over the last decade or two whereby self sufficiency was no longer something to be admired so most have become dependent on welfare funds.

The bigger problem is credit. The instant gratification syndrome is what has led to so many people over leveraging their finances and not saving for the future. This is what we have today. Everyone has spent beyond their means for at least the last two decades. And most now live paycheck to paycheck. A loss of a job leads to homelessness now.

And baby boomers have bailed out their kids who are all “misunderstood gold stars”, which is going to lead to more baby boomers who can’t retire as scheduled and may well be homeless themselves in the near future.

I have no sympathy for this behavior. And unfortunately I will still have to deal with all the negative implications that come from it, even though I did not participate in this irrational behavior…

The Jimmy Dore show, Published on Oct 31,2019 YouTube. Dylan Ratigan at about 9:40 explains that the Fed no longer has to go to, or the failed Bankers, have to go to Congress to beg for money, “the whole point of this law (the Dodd Frank Act) was to eliminate the need to go to the politicians ever again for money. Everyone is a bank holding company”.

They just print more money, create more dollars because the dollar is the world reserve currency. Then because of Dodd-Frank, they do not have to go to a political or legal authority for permission to do so.

So, right now, one of the major banks is insolvent, which because of the interconnectedness of the present system, means the Fed is having to bail out the system but this time without any having to go to Congress to justify their begging.

But, Max Keiser of the Keiser report and others, report that China has amassed some 20,000 tons of gold, Russia also is amassing gold, China is the world’s largest miner of gold which is not legal exported from China, Russia also is a major world miner of gold. China alone, or with Russia, plans to introduce a gold backed cryptocurrency. The utility and worth of the dollar as the world reserve currency and oil transaction settlement currency will be ended.

Because each are sovereign nuclear weapon equipped nations, the USA will not be able to invade and strip them of their resources.

Note, when the pound sterling collapsed after World War ll, it lost about 40% of value overnight.

Curious what you think China’s game plan is regarding their own gold holdings. It is suspected they have over 20000 tons putting them as the top holder.

https://www.goldmoney.com/research/goldmoney-insights/china-s-monetary-policy-must-change

They are a number 1 producer,

They don’t sell their ingot,

They only report People’s Bank holdings which may not be the total national holdings.

Seems to me they could cause a financial armageddon to USD hegemony.

Oh we shall not discuss this “interest rate apartheid “(Max Keiser) for it is not a topic for polite conversation.

Any call upon a politician to restore the deductibility of interest on credit card charges for federal income tax is met with total non reaction. A deduction removed in the 1986 Income Tax Act.

There are ways that the financial inequality can be addressed, ways that are simply not allowed discussion by our presstitutes.

Ways that may even consider, say, the elimination of the capital gains system of taxation enjoyed in the main by our elite.

Maybe the restoration of the American Chestnut Tree, development of a disease resistant American Elm, elimination the Emerald Ash Borer.

Development of the use of foamed concrete in building construction, rot proof, fire proof, insect proof, mold proof. Acceleration of the use of basaltic fiber rebar within reinforced concrete, a rebar that is stronger, lighter, and non rusting (meaning that moisture will not cause it to rust and then expand and crack and shatter the concrete.

George Washington’s Farewell Address:

https://www.ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?flash=true&doc=15&page=transcript

Below is a small portion of that address as it pertains to foreign entanglements:

“Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy to be useful must be impartial; else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.

The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.”

A government directed policy is required. The current players do not want to deal with the absorption of the costs which they have made externalities, instead those costs have been put upon the public. Other players, producers of the raw materials whether the petroleum or the feed stock view recycling as limiting their sales and thus profits.

Perhaps we need to regard plastics as a temporary state of the petroleum from which it is derived and so institute a program to fund pyrolysis reduction of the plastic back into petroleum to be used as fuel.

These are the matters our legislators need to be considering, that is, the efforts, matters, and conduct necessary to the preservation and sustenance of a livable habitat providing wholesome food, pure water, clean air for all. The costs of dealing with the by products and waste can no longer be regarded as externalities to the costs of production, marketing, and to computation of profit/loss.

We will see. The elephant in the room, which Gerald Celente and Max Keiser have addressed, is the growing anticipation of China announcing a gold based cryptocurrency backed by holdings of gold bullion estimated to be in the area of 20,000 tons.

The most gold the United States held, let me know if I am wrong, was 13,000 tons. Part of the reason behind the deflationary recession nature of the Great Depression was the aggressive accumulation of gold by the United States by payment of dollars for gold during the 1930s.

Now, do we trust other nation’s purported assay reports of the bullion, and they of ours?

Yes, there is a reason much of the world’s bullion resides within a vault in the depths of New York, every bar there has a proofed provenance, or so we are told.

Especially key in Bolivia are minerals needed for the batteries essential to the techno-travesty of wireless tech and, especially, electric vehicles, one of the very terrible ideas coming along in the era of ultra-technomasturbation. All in the name of “clean” energy (propaganda), progress and profit without regard to source of life and human health, both of which are severely threatened by the sea of artificial electromagnetic fields we’ve brainlessly invited upon ourselves by our embrace of life-negative, toxic, pathological technology.

It is my understanding that the ‘Islamisation’ of Western societies is being promoted by the ‘Radical Progressive Left’ since they support one another ideologically. Both are centrally controlled governmentally and can be tyrannical in nature. I saw this connection from some essays I read a short while ago. Not to belittle the good values that can be found in both; but balance, given human nature, is missing in both world views. (obviously my bias) As an addendum, there can be a softer Islam and Socialism that can benefit societies but only when respect is given to individual freedom and the rewards of fair Capitalist entrepreneur-ship is allowed. Healthy competition with appropriate rewards = positive innovation and combats laziness. Big multinationals, banks, etc however are the bane of the planet. Pay attention, the .01%.

The colonists in New England in the 1600’s and the Native American tribes in the forests didn’t quite have the same problem….local economies are better…how about enterprise zones for inner cities, with work, schools and play all run by the people who live there? No joblessness because of local neighborhood cooperatives (try Alvarado St bakery in Petaluma CA, or Mondragon in Spain (worker owned Capitalist enterprises). Sounds like I’m a radical Leftist?

I’ve owned an electric car I…

I’ve owned an electric car I use as a commuter car for several years. Once you drive an electric, you don’t want to go back to gas. The acceleration and torque are, hands down, superior to any gas vehicle. There’s little to no noise. The maintenance is tires and wipers. I plug it in to a standard 120 volt outlet at night, unplug it in the morning, and go. A night’s charge at 120 volts can get me about 60 miles of charge, at the whopping cost of $2 (before incentives), which is more than sufficient for a commute. If I want to go further, it has a gas engine it can use as a generator (technically it’s a “plug-in hybrid”), but I’ve only used the gas engine a couple of times in years.

The market is going to kill off oil as a fuel in light duty vehicles. While the upfront cost of an electric is greater, the maintenance and fuel costs are significantly lower. The fools errand is with all these companies trying to build long distance electrics. If they focused on eliminating fossil fuels on that first 60 miles, they’d eliminate most fossil fuel emissions in urban areas.

“…Lebanon’s president, Michel Aoun, stated, “If they do not like any person in authority, let them emigrate.” Not exactly what the president said. He stated that if the demonstrators are unable to find some decent people [ to represent them] then they should emigrate.

While corruption in Lebanon, perpetrated by an unholy alliance between ex militia leaders of the civil war and buccaneer businessmen, is responsible for the deteriorating economy, the current tug of war between the USA and Iran is taking its toll on the Lebanese economy as less money is flowing from Iran, due to America’s latest sanctions, in support of its Lebanese allies and the same is true with respect to investment and aid from America’s allies. The service oriented Lebanese economy has been under strain as the commercial deficit is no longer financed by the a positive balance of payments from remittances from the Lebanese diaspora especially from the Gulf oil kingdoms or from Africa. The cumulative effect of years of budget deficits has strained the system’s capacity to provide for governmental expenditures and service the interest on government debt. During the good old years of the sixties and the seventies Lebanon’s economy was enjoying a very healthy growth reaching some years between 8% and to 10% as Lebanon was sticking to balanced budgets and almost nonexistent government borrowing while acting as the trading, banking, university, hospital and the night club of the Middle East. While many of these functions have been under strain from rising competition from neighbouring countries it is the fiscal irresponsibility of the post civil war governments that wrecked the once prosperous Lebanon to the current miserable state of affairs.

If I remember correctly we had the same issue here in Denmark where some people wanted to collect rainwater from the roof of their homes for flushing the toilet.
The argument from the authorities went something like this: You are paying for drainage and sewers via your waterbill, so if everybody did that no-one would be paying for that important infrastructure.

When I was younger, I always…

When I was younger, I always wondered why “growth” was so important for the economy. I now understand that “growth” is mandatory for the economy because under the current system all “money” is borrowed into existence. In order to pay the interest on that “borrowed into existence money” more “money” is borrowed into existence. So, the economy must grow in order to accommodate all this new “money”. Else there will be rampant inflation. We have reached that point. The economy can no longer keep up with the rate of money creation.

Most of the elder population are getting pretty sick and tired as well. If they(protesters) persist China will have no other choices but to quash these protests before the entire city is set ablaze ..Hong Kong Belongs To China .. there is no denying it .. If these were being held in the US a lot of folks would have been killed arrested and thrown in jail for years .. In order to keep their quotas high and shareholders happy in the penal system scam .I bet you 60% of these protesters are being egged on by other entities .. You do not have to guess to hard as to who these culprits might be .. or, are to be exact.

Of all these great ideas that the Trends Journal reports, few can be invested in, whether because they were developed by a university or an unlisted company. It’s disappointing, and a little baffling. (Yes, I am aware that helping the environment is spectacular and supersedes my investment goals.)

Does anyone ever write these companies down and check back at a later date to see if they were listed on an exchange? I’ve been keeping a list, but so far nothing has advanced to the investment stage. Although, I did find a filing from Water Harvesting Inc. applying to sell equity–hopefully publicly.

Good morning Gerald,
Let me…

Good morning Gerald,
Let me share my point of view from Chile, where I live.

In Chile this current crisis is political, social and economical.

First, it is political.
The right wing party won with 56% the 2018 elections.
The left wing understood they had no chance for 2022 election, so promote the riots in the street to force a breakdown for right wing to renouce, in order to continue the socialist agenda for latinamerica (organized from Cuba and Venezuela).
Furthermore, the current right wing government has been weak to control the riots in the streets, giving no authority to police to preserve the order. And the left wing parties are pushing human rights only to the violent people and no the self-defense from the police.

Then, it is a social problem, ideed there is lack of proper business regulations, so there has been collusion without proper justice.
However, the root of it is the burocracy and corruption from the state. Politicians live as princes with high wages. And there is no update of laws according to this times.

Finally, there are economic consequences. The solution is not to give more stimulus to low income bracket. But to imprive the free economic market that allows the growth of Chile for the last 40 years. Providing educational reforms and tax stimulus to entrepreneurs and regulations.

Of course, the origin of the problem is not the wage inequeality, but the orchestrade organization from Cuba and Venezuela to implement the socialist model to control latinamerican countries.

In Argentina, the left wing won in the polls, but in Chile and Bolivia and Peru and Uruguay and Brasil, they couldnt. So, that is why they use the excuse of inequality.

I will be have to provide more updates in the future.

Sincerely
Octavio Urzua
from Santiago, Chile

As I see it, the transition…

As I see it, the transition to EVs is a major disaster on several levels, two of the worst of which are environmental and health threats from a giant, new wave of life-negative, artificial electromagnetic fields. There’s even a new, totally brainless technology that charges car batteries wirelessly. A diagram of it shows the beam going from front to back of the car – where the kids sit. Genius.

To make matters worse, EVs – all new cars – are loaded with microwave sensors for all sorts of purposes, creating, in effect, a low-power, rolling microwave oven, also hitting any unlucky living things outside the vehicle. These cars are the worst yet. Diabolical.

The old saying (1970’s?) …

The old saying (1970’s?) ‘Think globally but act locally’ is probably the only solution to multiple economic crises. The great Depression of 1930’s was weathered reasonably well by rural America because people could still farm, garden, cut firewood or visit neighbors for basic necessities and help. This is absent today.

Could we go back to that? Perhaps not since the traditions and skills of our great grandparents are largely not passed down (herbal medicine, fix your own car, etc). Kids are glued to facebook and video games. Tradition, ‘traditsio’, what is handed down…perhaps we should think about the past before we throw it out?

Iraq? Libya? Afghanistan? Iran-1956?…and that is not to say that America is not a great nation. We have goodness and greatness. But to both Left and Right: put our own house in order morally.

We should not be in denial of our history. (an interesting aside: reported on NPR’s Democracy Now with Amy Goodman re: the Russian interference in our election? probably true; but since the 1960’s the US has done the same around the world about 3 times more than the Russians. Ignorance of historical facts is a real problem for our poorly educated population)

The IMF may tell its story, but I’m not sure this imminent bust is any different than all the past ones. Namely, no accident, but the manipulated boom/bust cycle in the rigged and crooked economic/currency/financial system. Instability built in, so that a little shaking gets the desired result. Most involve major transfers of wealth, like the first big one, 1929 and Depression, caused by Wall Street and the Fed; and like the 2008 one caused by Treasury and the banks.
This will never stop until one of three things happen – the psychopaths running the show at the top of the power structure get their wet dream of global/fascist government/total surveillance/human-control system/global currency/cashless society – Orwell/Huxley on steroids;
or people wake up from their materialistic lust and Conehead consumerism delirium (an Elite construct) to the fact that the system/way of life itself is the problem – a system of enslavement sold as freedom – a corruption designed from Day One to be further corrupted. That we’re so far down the wrong road, especially beginning with the Industrial Revolution (an Elite operation), a road of Earth-liquidation/toxification to make things and cash to drive a preposterous, ecocidal, self-destructive, technomasturbating, ultimately suicidal way of life wholly embraced as normal in a mind prison of collective insanity, that to try to rescue things absent a remarkable evolution in mass consciousness will be like trying to fix a watch with a pipe wrench;
or we persist with our addictions, superficial fascinations and overblown self-importance in a great techno-toxic bubble of alienation from the Natural World, until either the ecosystem or human health fail completely and ends the agony for us. All we have to do now to seal our doom is not quit wireless technology altogether. It’s the life-negative foundation of the aforementioned global control system. Yes, the Iranian assassination was big, but how about well over 50,000 new satellites blasting the planet with pathological microwave radiation. Utter insanity in progress.

Gerald,
It would be helpful for you to provide “tips/suggestions” on how your readers should be preparing for the Greatest Depression. Possibly even one segment each week dedicated to just that?
You could cover what to do with :
– 401K’s
– Pensions
– Gold/silver
– preparations
-etc.

Do you think that Bloomberg would have spent hundreds of millions of dollars under the tax plan that I have been proposing on the page for a long time? Taxes should only begin at $500 million dollars in assets. Above that point, 99% should be taxed, not because the government needs the money, but to protect the people from an undue influence by the predator class. Everyone below half a billion dollars in assets should have a zero tax rate, and the government should encourage them to become as wealthy as possible and start paying taxes. To even the playing field, there has to be a maximum wage, not a minimum wage.

This is one of the very few news sources which properly translates the situation in Lebanon according to actuality. Many other American/European media, whether it’s television, radio or magazine barely even acknowledge the events taking place in Beirut and the other major surrounding cities. With the rare chance of a mainstream network covering a story about Lebanon they illustrate the protestors as criminals and the country nothing other than a a terroristic state. Being Lebanese and following the situation in Lebanon closely through live Lebanese broadcasts and family members living there I can say Trends Journal does a great job.

It’s possible that the main point of all the ME conflict is being missed – although there may be more points than one. Because most analysts focus on the “Drama” (symptoms) than on the “script writers” and “directors,” (cause) they can miss the point.
For example, “what everyone knew” was that US motive in Iraq was oil. This proved untrue. Beginning around 2003, the US began building long-term military bases and a virtual fortress embassy complex in Baghdad.
While most Iraqis had no access to basic necessities, bases had/have their own water, electricity, restaurants, swimming pools and movie theaters. Just so, the huge embassy, which covers an area larger than Vatican City. It’s hard to get accurate info, but older reports mentioned 4 bases and 5 bases. This further threatens Iran (as if they had bases in Canada), which was already surrounded.
There was also chatter than the US “failed” in Iraq. That, however, was true only if one believed the stated reasons for the “war”/assault, namely to remove a threat and bring “democracy” NONSENSE. Saddam was assisted to power by CIA to have the war with Iran. He was goaded into attacking Kuwait by method similar to how they got Korea going. There has not been a single US military operation truly having that intent. It’s all about business, resources, power and control – not of the US, but of its puppet masters. The plan is old, beginning with the Revolution.
But missing most in all the Drama is info about who is actually running the show. If anyone thinks it’s the President, his advisers, the military/intelligence nexus, State, and so on, he has much to learn about what has been going on in the world for a long time – thousands of years, actually. It’s no exaggeration to say that all major conflict, especially here in the West, are the operations – executed policy – of a global, supra-national power structure with an ancient global Agenda: Total Control.
Psychopathy is the fundamental characteristic of this cabal, and with satanic tendencies, including ritual sacrifice. They will do things so evil that few can believe anyone would do such a thing, so there must be some other explanation. One major aspect not seen in TJ is the roiling pit of evil just under the ‘respectable’ societal veneer. It peeks through occasionally with reports of “sub-scenarios” like Epstein and Jimmy Savile, the procurer for England’s Royal Family and aristocracy – not to mention the “Franklin Cover-Up”(see title/author John DeCamp. But it never gets dragged into the light because it’s foundational to the “needs” of the Elite psyche. And they operate above the law. “Franklin” investigation was squashed by FBI when arrows began pointing to Reagan/BUSH White House.
If you look at the details of the bombing of Iraq after the army was driven out of Kuwait (and note that not ONE WMD was used by Iraq – even though Saddam was in possession of $4bn illegal WMD US Commerce illegally approved in the runup to Gulf 1), you will see one of the most satanic assaults in human history. It’s in the section called “The Fire This Time” on this page: http://www.dhushara.com/book/death/clark.htm If anyone can read this without tears, he/she is a better ‘man’ than I.
This brings up another Elite motive for war and violence: War and violence. There need be no other purported Drama motive. The cabal thrives on these vibrations. Sound crazy? Then you never heard the Beach Boys, except those were good vibes 🙂
Another motive: Target practice. Another: Using up old/outdated munitions and equipment to make way for the ‘new stuff.’ Iraq (and others, such as Afghanistan, are considered “sacrifice zones”).
So now what’s that main point? It was revealed in a book by Elite operative Zbigniew Brzezinski in his 1997 book “The Grand Chessboard” (title suggests what the power structure thinks of nations). He noted that for total global control, one would need control of the destination of the hard resources of “Eurasia.” From where I sit, that’s the underlying motive for chaos in the ME, for which Israel was created as the fulcrum. Very revealing. What he doesn’t reveal is that the US is not an independent entity, but that it and its agencies are the tools and handmaidens (Wall Street included) of the global financial Elite.
Who stands mainly in the way, geopolitically speaking, as the last “pin” in the ME alley? Iran. But Russia and China are also aware and also under the influence of power. See under whose auspices Russia’s central bank operates. So this could be the juxtaposition of two Elite “Queens” on the Board – East/West. To the psychopaths, it’s a deadly game – but they ‘own the board’, so they ‘win’ either way, unless the world wises up. These protests, riots and so on, are not by any means wising up, however. In fact, some may even be Elite instigated. American Revolution was, Arab Spring was. French R. got co-opted and turned into a blood bath.

Overall, I suggest this is more conventional medicine (con-medicine) nonsense. First of all this isn’t a “vaccine” in the sense of the traditional crime against humanity, since there is no apparent infectious agent. Secondly, this does not remove the cause, of which Alzheimer’s might not be the only consequence. I suggest it’s mainly a new marketing ploy.
We’ like to believe that medical “science” is noble and pure. Unfortunately, it’s very much controlled by money/power – or let’s say what gets put into practice is. Let’s not forget that the ball was put into motion by Rockefeller money – grants to colleges IF they wold follow a certain paradigm, namely treating the symptoms (as opposed to cause) of disease with all manner of toxic medicaments. This was a major money-making move to discredit, weaken, disadvantage and destroy the many natural modalities in use in this country in the 19th century. The problem with those? Un-patentable. The most prominent result of this approach has been the perpetuation of illness, because, let’s face it folks, there’s no ‘real’ money in widespread wellness. MUCH more in research and half-baked “cures.” It’s a ‘magic show.’ Force symptoms to go away and it looks like success. But when the cause comes back as “something else,” why, it’s not OUR fault; we cured that “other thing.”

Gerald, I have to disagree with you on your stance on the issue of climate change, specifically your reluctance to talk about this issue. How come you have failed to identify this as a major trend? You say that we are all going to be dead before the climate changes because we are being poisoned by the food they’re giving us, by the water, the polluted air we breath, from the radiation, etc. When you say this it detracts from the seriousness of the situation. No doubt these things are contributing to our death and no one really knows the extent of their impact with people dying of all sorts of cancers and sicknesses because of the food, water and air we take in and this significantly reduces the quality of our lives. But climate change whether man made or not is also having an impact by sometimes wiping out large whole villages or large hectares of land and again the full knock on effects that this has no one really knows. The issue of climate change however has been taken far too lightly and people better wake up before natural disasters become more widespread and of greater impact putting large sectors of the population at risk. This could get to the point where such an impact could be on the same scale as a widespread nuclear war. Also, the poisons we find in our food, water and air is a direct result of the industrial and agricultural practices that are also contributing to climate change so the two are directly linked. You say Gerald that you don’t get involved in the climate debate but only that if humans dump millions of tonnes of chemicals and pollutants into the earth, into the water and into the air that it’s probably going to have an effect and I couldn’t agree more. But it’s getting to the point now where it’s very serious. And these people who deny climate change completely because they fear that the government is going to tackle it by taxing us more and because it will impact the economy are worse than the children. No doubt these assholes in government might do that and the economy might suffer depending on how a response to this issue is handled but to say that climate change is not occurring because of this is stupid as they are two completely seperate issues. It was our focus on the bottom line and our human greed that got us into this mess and now these very same forces are making us deny that the problem even exists. We are blinded by our own greed and if we continue with this denial and don’t wake up as a species and change our way of life, I forecast that the consequences to us all will become worse and worse over the coming years until we reach a point where nature will make that choice for us.

Well said Peter! Yes, the pharmaceutical industry is a trillion-dollar industry–globally the industry is projected to soar past US$1.5 trillion by 2023.

Giving the trends and economic slowdown Germany is making a great investment in itself. Better public transportation infrastructure should stimulate future residential and commercial construction. What a great way to meet several goals at once:
1. Encourage future lifestyle changes to lower greenhouse emissions.
2. Plant the real estate development seed by bringing modern rail to new areas.
3. Fiscal stimulus
4. Embarking on the transition to industries that will be in demand in the future – German trains
5. Creating communities that are walking oriented, with trains as the way to get around.
What many people may not realize is many younger urban have cars as a necessary evil. There expensive to car for, depreciate in value, and can be a costly expense. Also a society full single use cars has made many lazy, fat, and physically weak. More trains would be great but I don’t think North America will Be thinking about this option any time soon.☹️

I support the Share International publication because they do talk about this. I have contributed to Occupy Peace, and believe Gerald brings important information.

But what I see in GC platform is what I have been waiting for, the unrest all over the world. People are calling for justice. In the people, young and old, (mostly young) all over the world coming out to the streets and risking life and limb, this is hope… they will take down it all.

A newsletter writer of renown (he of a four letter word) predicts gold will drop to $700 once the stock market corrects based on the fact that a major correction will result in deflated prices across the board. In such a scenario where deflation not inflation reigns supreme, I wonder what the actual impact would be on the gold price. Historically what happened to gold during previous market setbacks?

While in Paris last week the only disturbance I saw was a convoy of Paddy wagons wailing past. Our tour guide, a retired private sector employee, told us the public sector pensions were nothing short of ludicrous with some workers retiring in their 40’s on a full pension ready to take on a new job. His assessment was that the system was fiscally unsustainable. I wonder what kind of riots they will see when the government says “sorry but there’s no more money for you people…we are broke”? They’ll need more than Pate Wagons.

So you don’t believe that natural disasters are on the rise?
If a nuclear war was to break out, it would create such an imbalance in the natural environment that no where on the earth would be safe anymore. It would be total annihilation and so it is in no ones best interest to start a nuclear war. Deep down I think everyone knows that no matter how stupid they are hence the reluctance to go that route. However, all the pollution and environmental destruction that we as a species have caused over the years and continue to cause is also contributing to that imbalance and when such imbalance exists, natural disasters occur more often because this is natures way of purifying itself and restoring balance.
It’s just like the analogy of the boiling frog. No frog is going to tolerate being thrown into boiling water so it is going to jump straight out, however if you bring it slowly to the boil it does not realise what is happening and dies. Our situation can be compared to this. We are slowly bringing upon ourselves our own destruction by upsetting the natural environment small degrees at a time without realising it until it’s too late and nothing can be done to save ourselves.

Speaking of Fukushima, if you look at the map of the effected area in the pacific ocean of where the radiation spilled, it is off the cost of the Philippines. Now the Fukushima disaster happened in March 2011 and in November of 2013 typhoon Haiyan, known as typhoon Yolanda to the Filipinos, hits the east cost of the Philippines, the largest typhoon to make landfall based on recorded data. Can massive amounts of radiation leaked into the ocean cause this sort of massive typhoon to occur. I don’t know as i’m not an expert on natural disasters and I’m not saying that it did cause this event, but it does seem suspicious. We do not understand the knock on effects of what we are doing to the earth but I’m surprised that no scientist out there or anyone else that I know of has made this connection and do the required research.

January 25, 2020 mnpund
@mnpund and vbenson2005:
i want to state unequivocally that I am against the willful destruction of the natural world. There is a difference between using the resources of this planet sensibly and the path that the power structure is taking, which is leading us to destruction. Follow the money. The people who are destroying the world are the ones who are claiming to give us the solution. My question is, how can we measure the climate of the past? The climate is in constant change and the earth testifies to that. Something I think you would find interesting is the research of the scientists at the Thunderbolts Project. The impact that the sun has on weather and our climate is by far the greatest impact. As the sun goes, our climate goes. What’s particular fascinating is the connection between hurricanes and sunspots.

January 25, 2020 Dave from L.A.
Come on Dave, your argument is based on a logical fallacy. To say that it’s all about money and then attribute the causes of climate change and natural disasters on factors outside our human control may chime well with certain ears but these are two completely separate issues. The powers that be don’t need the excuse of climate change to tax us more, I’m sure they can come up with many new and creative ways to tax us more without having to rely on this.

One of the biggest polluters of the planet is the US military complex – it is appalling what they do. There was a documentary on their toxic dumps in Afghanistan; their own soldiers who manned them got ill and many died or are invalids today. But such information is suppressed to nothing when it should be front page. And the damage they do in the oceans with their tests and exercises is equally appalling. Recently they did “exercises” dropping live bombs on part of the Florida swampland – said the wildlife would be “temporarily displaced”. Then the big corporations with pesticides decimating insect and bird populations… now remember, these are the main components of the US economy – military, arms & big corporations, the remainder being the consumer who is goaded to buy and buy til he drops, more stuff he doesn’t need and can’t afford.
I agree with Dave that the climate of the world has always been changing long before puny man could do his in-put of detrimental actions – that is not to say the enormous scale of contemporary man’s detrimental actions are not accelerating certain changes.
It is further unfortunate the Greta Thurnberg backers have not directed her to expose the real culprits – while she has the stage and a microphone – instead we hear only a vague generalization about carbon emissions which “she” wants stopped “NOW”! Something that is unfeasible.

This student just returned from Beijing. It is on WTOP radio and the news about this student at George Mason university! So what do the universities do if its suddenly known that the virus has breached the containment? SHUT DOWN THE UNIVERSITY quarantine the students? call in the national guard? We have the Confucius Institute here like on all major campuses the Chinese set up these promotional PR Chinese schools to teach Mandarin and promote good will with mainland China. I took Mandarin and they have excellent teachers but with the sudden negative diplomacy with China this could be a focal point for some sort of retaliation.

We have an ALM leukemia epidemic out here in Virginia and in the northern hemisphere. We have been getting radioactive fallout for 9 years! The Japanese do NOT know how to stop the radiation. There is NO protocol for China syndrome. I have a friend a nurse who told me about the leukemia epidemic among seniors and children. It is only caused by radiation. Her husband is a scientist. This is genocide of the entire planet! there is also an increase in brain cancer among children as well. This is very alarming! Yoichi Shimatsu Japanese journalist has been reporting on this situation. Jeff Rense: Fukushima seafood/ youtube. Jane Fonda did a movie called THE CHINA SYNDROME and the old Gregory Peck movie ON THE BEACH really is exactly what is happening. Also look up Wigner EFFECT it is how radiation effects metal cars and aircraft . it caused erosion and deterioration. Also there is a sudden heart death syndrome cause by exposures to radiation. At cruising altitudes over the Pacific people are getting very high levels of rads and this radiation is known as Chernobyl heart syndrome because it goes to the heart muscle and causes sudden death. Carrie Fisher may have died from this. Really if you want to know the damning truth and can handle it please read the documentation from BOB NICHOLS on Fukushima and also his youtube site. I am beyond weeping. When Fukushima blew up it was an atomic explosion and the plutonium vaporized into the ionosphere. TWO HARVARD physicists wept because they know what this means the death of our entire planet!

People do not know that these power plants are privately owned and get HUGE government subsidies! No nuclear power plant is safe nor is nuclear clean or safe. They leak all the time.

I agree that the climate has always been changing and that the earth has gone through stages and cycles and I also agree Atlantis that man’s actions are having an effect and that’s precisely the issue, whether man’s pollution of the environment is having any effect and if so, what is the extent of that effect? How can an ecosystem not be affected if it’s abused? It doesn’t make any sense. And if we accept that it is affected by man’s abuse, then to what extent? Should it be a high priority and matter of concern or not? The effects can be hard to measure but we can answer that question based on the extent of the abuse because effects are proportional to the causes. If there is much abuse, then the effects on the earth will be large even though they might not be directly noticed. As Gerald says, if billions of tonnes of pollutants are put into the air, water and earth, it’s going to have an effect. Also, if the earth’s climate has always changed, how do we know whether the earth’s natural rhythm at this particular point in time is for the temperature to increase? The earth’s natural rhythm at this point in time could be for the earth to drastically cool for all we know but human action is perhaps having the opposite effect. The fact that the earth’s temperature has always changed through time doesn’t tell us much and no inferences can be drawn from this perspective regarding man’s actions which is the only thing we have control over. I don’t know why people are reluctant to talk about this issue as it is this issue if any now that the people are aware, that can expose the corporations and governments and military for what they are, polluters and abusers of the earth, the people and their morals.

Scurvy is a vitamin deficiency not a disease, cure is vitamin C. Can’t patent a vitamin, no money in
treating this ” disease” with vitamin C.
Eating good quality foods is your best way to stay healthy.

Bottled water.. Russian Roulette. I’m a desalination engineer. An old timer that learned my trade from my father and Grandfather.. What average people fail to realize and understand is; “There is no more water being manufactured. We have exactly the same amount now as we had a million years ago. The issue is that we (normal everyday people, corporations, and governments) are polluting our water supplies faster than mother nature can re-purify it through the hydro-logical cycle” So now we are using the oceans to provide drinking water for millions of people world wide and concentrating the waste stream that is discharged back into the oceans from which it came. We destroyed our aquifers, and now we’re going to destroy our oceans.. The underlying issue is waste. We waste more as a society than any other nation on earth. Sad isn’t it. Can you imagine what an African nation or even a Caribbean island could do with all of the water that the US uses just to water grass with??

We are contemporaries, Gerald, you and I. I grew up in Brooklyn, NY, went to Brooklyn College, studied physics at NYU, downtown, and finished at U of Md in 1963.
I enjoy hearing your monologues and am almost always in agreement.
FDR and “Winnie” were icons in my youth. I have since come to understand their terrible shortcomings. Upper-class character faults. Both were imperialists and both, politicians. So I guess we ought not have expected too much. Great war-time leaders, both. In the 1930s, both put fighting Communism ahead of fighting fascism. They both learned the hard way! Today, US and UK put fighting Russia ahead of fighting fascism again, as in Ukraine.
Keep up the good work!

Ya, the old hustle is on. SARS, Swine Flu, Ebola, Bird – even HIV maybe? The latter might raise eyebrows, but in a book called “Fear of the Invisible” by Janine Roberts, not only does she show absolutely that the 4 Gallo-Popovic papers, still cited today and said to prove HIV/AIDS, were the worst junk one could imagine (based on two high-level Government reviews in the 1990’s – OSI, ORI), but she takes to task virology per se. Just not the precise science it’s held out to be. They do things a 5th grader would be ashamed of 🙂
The sacrifice of animals is one of the great travesties of morality in all this.
The two reviews were never released to “protect the reputation of ‘science'”. Read, “the bottom line of the cartel”. Robert Gallo was politely eased out of CDC, never facing consequences for such fraud.
This might have been the reason AIDS researchers have been forbidden to attempt reproduction of those studies – peer review being the sine qua non of ‘science.’
One thing that sore thumbs is that only “official” researchers make the grand discovery. It’s “We heroes saved you poor slobs again.” Much of this is to raise fear so folks will opt for the poison needle in general (now they’re saying they have a “vaccine” for Alzheimer’s). Much is to advance the surveillance/control agenda that is the Elite’s wet dream.
But The CDC (where Gallo’s cancer lab was) and WHO, (owned and) operated by virus hunters. New viruses are their bread and butter. An “outbreak” is announced (or created). Off they go to find the culprit. HIV came out of a monkey, and there was one that crawled out of a deep, dark cave in Africa. Marburg. Deadly. Ebola family.
Epidemics – or the threat of them – are good for business. Pharmaceutical business, inducing fear business, diverting the public from key events business, surveillance and quarantine business, and so on. https://www.cnn.com/2016/08/23/health/virus-hunters-bat-cave-south-africa/index.html
We don’t know what happened in China, but it wouldn’t surprise if this was dropped on them. They’re putting on a good show in any case, having shut down 3 very big factories, telling workers to stay home for at least a week.
One is hard pressed to tell how deep is the level of infiltration into any nation’s agencies; but all it takes is a pronouncement, true or not, from “authority,” a key individual or office in the target zone, and the panic response is on. The rest of the medical gang are programmed believers who follow protocol.

Should the parentheses in the title have been around “health” alone? 🙂
Nice tight parade/merry-go-round – street to clinic diagnostics, through the door to drug heaven, back to street…
Even with “complementary” medicine, the “health” care system would much more accurately be called “Iatrogenic Disease Management.” Of what interest is widespread wellness to an industry whose windfall profits depend upon widespread illness? The very medical paradigm is designed to perpetuate illness. “War on Cancer” now at what – 40 years or so? It’s epidemic. What would happen to the $billions worth of facilities and equipment if (gulp!) a cure were found? It’s a no no. WAY more money in research and half-baked toxic treatment than in any cure which might be found.

Funny how the U.S., E.U. and Japan (Trilateral Commission) made a joint statement regarding corporate subsidies. Huh, so corporate welfare in all three regions don’t exist. Umm…I guess the banker bailouts during the last recession were subsidies either. I’m also wondering how 21 percent tax rate Trump gave to the corporations was a real helping hand for businesses that would’ve failed in free market conditions?!?! Although China’s no angel in this affair too, but the real problem is that countries should practice what they preach!

Okay, Germany’s GDP in 2017 was 2.5%. Then it was 1/5% in 2018. It ended up being 0.6% in 2019. A recession is commonly defined as two or more quarters of economic decline. This is happening for at least three years. Not to mention that Germany is Europe’s largest economy is suffering so bad would qualify as the evidence we need to understand that the Greatest Depression to ever occur is among us right now.

We obviously didn’t learn a damn thing from the 2007 – 2008 recession. Real econoimic growth comes from creating products and services, not infusing a stimulus by borrowing money. In the last recession the global debt was at roughly 125 trillion. Now it’s at least 250 – 300 trillion! We also should’ve learned that economic stimulus efforts of governments rarely provided any desireable results. Instead these governments took out loans to invest in an economy that didn’t provide any returns before losing the entire principal of their investment. Corporate debt is at a historical all time high! They borrowed not for capial improvement projects, but for mergers, aquisitions, corporate buy back of their stocks. The worst thing about this is despite the ever elevation of global debt, what do we have to show for it? What have we accomplished? What was the overall benefit for us all? Not much.

The only reason why the dollar is strong is because the other currencies are in worse shape. However, other factors suchy as Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), which over 100 countries already joined, will enable members to perform financial transactions without the use of the U.S. Dollar. Also, BRICS Bank is well on their way to developing a cryptocurrency that will be backed by gold and will be convertable to the Ruble, Yuan and other participating currencies, thus bypassing the U.S. Dollar once again. Major deals between China and Russia are being conducted without the use of the Dollar, Power of Siberia deal that’s worth at least 400 Billion U.S. Dollars is one such deal. Nordstream 1 and 2 along with Turkstream, could be transacted with the U.S. Dollar or without it. China’s Belt and Road Inititive and Russia’s Eurasion Economic Union / Eurasian Union are also making deals that don’t require the U.S. Dollar as the median currency. I think that the U.S. Dollar will always have a presence in the world stage, but not like the way it once was.

Fiat (fake) currencies along with degenerate gambling investment tactics is what establishes, maintains and deterine the value of our assets and markets?!?!

This recess in China’s banking regulation reminds us of when Bill Clinton repealed the Glass – Steigal Act, which no longer forbid the merger of commercial and investment banks. That led to the Recession of 2007 – 2008. Now China is facing a similar situation, which requires the Chinese government to bail out their failing banks just like we did back in 2008 and 2009.

It appears that there is a disconnect in the brain of anyone elected President of the US because when they were running for office they espoused Peace but when elected, they immediately wanted to prosecute WAR. Look at the latest bravado at the New Jersey rally. Trump said he is creating jobs and killing terrorists. Sounds closely similar to statements of the previous four Presidents.
He must think I am fool enough to fall for his fraudulent and corrupt rhetoric. The so-called Mideast Peace Plan is probably going to start a renewed fight between the Palestinians and Israel but that gets him the Jewish vote in the halls of Congress and from Jews across America. 80% of Congress and other branches of government are Jewish descent. Is it any wonder why he is such a stalwart supporter of Jewish dogma.

Bulgarian journalist Dilyana Gaytandzhieva exposed a $2 billion per year Pentagon program using private contractors in 25 nations (in Asia too) to create lethal, incurable, man-made pathogens. Coronavirus is patented by the Pirbright Institute and is funded by the pro-eugenics Bill Gates. Lyme, Ebola, SARS, HIV are all apparently man made as well. Releasing a pathogen like Coronavirus is a great way to destabilize the Chinese economy with this apparent trade war going on. Plus a great way to profit. Create the problem and then offer the solution as well – a vaccine with its own toxic effects.

January 29, 2020 vanderV
Yep. Dilyana is right on the money. Deadly viruses do not just pop up just like that. Clearly it was engineered and allowed to escape at ‘just the right time’. It’s really a shame that the public laps up the bullshit stories that the media and governments concoct to cover the trail of lies and screw ups.

On one of the recent trends in the news episodes, there was a mention of a growing unhappiness, solitude and meaningless in the lives of people, particularly those working in large corporations. The cause of this unhappiness according to the report had to do with the growing amount of dependence on technology for human communication and connection. The communication technology of the modern age only plays a small part in this psychological/spiritual problem. One of the main causes of this growing meaningless or purpose in the lives of people that is rarely mentioned has to do with the massification of society, that is, of taking people out of small towns or communities and piling them up in big cities where they work for big companies and become part of large groups. This is a problem for the individual because the larger the size of the social unit, the less relevant he or she feels as a valued member, that is, the more nullified they become. It’s also a problem because being part of this large social unit, the individual must sometimes sacrifice large parts of their individuality for the purpose of survival and must conform to the values accepted by the majority. As a compensatory measure for the feeling of irrelevance that this causes, individuals often go in search for power. This search for power can cause problems for the individual and for society at large if the forces driving them to seek power remain hidden in their unconscious. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the world has the problems that it has, and why it is driven by power hungry people and why people just blindly follow along.

I agree 100% with your post. I use to work for Nestle’ for 20+ years. I watched and tried to keep my job as management cannibalized all the profits from the company and gave it to their investors. We were lucky enough just to receive a 1% COLA every year and our lunch breaks (which we sued for in a class action lawsuit). I watched as co-workers literally died from the stress of loosing their jobs, but Nestle’ was able to profit from their deaths with a $1,000,000 life insurance policy on every employee within the company.

It seems to me that US banks and credit unions are now offering CD’s of varying time lengths at higher interest rates than before the Federal Reserve starting lowering rates last year. Do you think it is part of a strategy that they are using to try to lock up deposits because they fear an upcoming liquidity crunch as evidenced by the Feds action in the Repo market and an economic downturn in the not so distant future?

The senior paper out here in Fairfax.Va. has an article on what is called SIM SPLITTING and phone take over fraud. What happens is that the criminals get your phone number and convince carriers that they need a new phone and then they have your number. What happens is that they can get into ALL your accounts because your cell and phone numbers are used to set up accounts and for verification. I was getting ” verification” codes for my account at Bank of America and I NEVER asked for a verification code. I was getting harassing calls from collections agencies because the man who stole my number used it to establish accounts with Toyota in Alexandria.Va. I called Toyota and sure enough the guy used my cell number. I did a little detective work tried to tell Virgin mobile about this problem but the dumb customer service rep in Pakistan kept telling me it is impossible for someone to have my number! But the truth is it is possible and it is a fraud and a scam. THis man and his brother even had THE NERVE to have his name published in the White Pages using my cell number! I had to file an ID theft report. THANK GOD the senior paper had this article about this scam. It is worse then having your social security number stolen as they can get ALL YOUR ACCOUNTS because to identify you they send verification codes and these codes are then intercepted by the criminals! And then they pretend to be you because they have the authentification.

The FED also has a trading desk on the exchanges to buy stocks, much like Japan has done over the last 30 years. What has that gotten their lost generation? You either have a free market or not. The FED has chosen to make a managed market. But not for our benefit. The FED is an independent agency that represents the big banking industry, not the American people.

Get real guys. The current economic system was set up and run by the FED long before Trump became president. We need to have a real system of money that is backed by tangible assets like gold, that restrains the government from spending way beyond their means. Don’t blame Trump for a system that was set up under President Wilson, and possibly before that. The government has to spend within its means just like the rest of us do.

The freedoms that we have enjoyed in the modern era stem from three R’s: Reformation, Renaissance, and Revolution. First, Reformation: when people learn for themselves that those speaking for God are corrupt and serving power and mammon. This knowledge helped lead to the Renaissance, which freed men from those who would oppress them, and expressed beauty in their creations. The arts are critical to our humanity. These two intellectual revelations lead to the third R automatically, which is Revolution. That’s when we realize that we have the keys to the chains that bind us the whole time, and only through ignorance are we imprisoned by these bonds. When the Revolution ended, the British played the tune, “The World Turned Upside Down.” The kingdoms of this world have been devoted ever since to putting it right side up in their eyes. To do so, you first have to overturn the Reformation; Biblical knowledge is literally nonexistent among people calling themselves Christian. The status of the arts today speaks for itself; ugliness is art and beauty is abhorrent. Automatically, the overturning of the Revolution follows. There is no freedom for people who do not have a common cause.

“-A new generation is growing up in our midst, a generation actuated by new ideas and new principles. It is serious and enthusiastic for these new ideas and its enthusiasm, even when it is misdirected, is, I believe, in the main sincere. But we are living in a sceptical and, if I may use the phrase, a thought-tormented age: and sometimes I fear that this new generation, educated or hypereducated as it is, will lack those qualities of humanity, of hospitality, of kindly humour which belonged to an older day. Listening to-night to the names of all those great singers of the past it seemed to me, I must confess, that we were living in a less spacious age. Those days might, without exaggeration, be called spacious days: and if they are gone beyond recall let us hope, at least, that in gatherings such as this we shall still speak of them with pride and affection, still cherish in our hearts the memory of those dead and gone great ones whose fame the world will not willingly let die.”
From: James Joyce. “The Dead.”

There is a website TWISTED TRUTH / youtube Michael of someone’s bones been posting video on news feeds about this virus. Then there is William Mount his site on youtube. I can’t say how valid their info is but Michael was a journalist . I’ve seen so many sci fi movies and it begs the question is this an alien virus? Michael has been posting video about Putin fighting the ANNUNAKI in Syria and like the Phil Schneider story of encountering et aliens in an under ground labyrinth of tunnels. SPACE FORCE? We have had a secret space force for many years Trump only legitimized it by making it official. The CONGO and Venezuela unrest CIA mining COLTAN a super conducting metal mineral used on space craft hulls. $7,000 to $20,000 an ounce? So what is really going on? There are these gigantic triangular ships. There was a wave of them in Belgium in 1990s. In Illinois three police departments had reports on rt 53 not far from my mother’s near Naperville, Illinois. My other and sister witnessed broad daylight 2004 2 pm in afternoon on way to Oak Brook, Illinois a giant triangle ship just a hundred feet above their car as they drove over !-88 tollway. My sister was driving she nearly had a heart attack and my mother who was 80 at the time said she had a good look and thought it was man made that it was secret military ship two football fields big ! So what is going on?

Mike Adams of Natural News claims that the virus was engineered in a Chinese Lab that “accidentally” made it into their population. Adams cites an YouTube interview with Dr. Francis Boyle a Bio Weapons expert who wrote the draft for the US Bio Weapons Act.
In the 1990’s, monied interests were divesting from the US economy (before baby boomers began retiring in mass) in favor of making huge profits in China (and elsewhere) . It appears the reverse is now happening because of this new (lab created) flu. Cui Bono?

There’s quite a long, complex and sordid history of biochemical weapon research. If Wuhan is a major facility, it was preceded by the two biggest in the world, namely Fort Detrick, MD and Porton Down, a “science park” in Wiltshire, England near Salisbury. It holds two government facilities, one of which is a Defence Science and Technology Laboratory occupying 7,000 acres. It’s an entire self-contained living complex.
However, in my view, it goes beyond the ‘nation level,’ as does so much chaos in the world, to an scripted, orchestrated Elite operation. As opposed to the “Drama” of geopolitics.
Both facilities began as chemical warfare outfits and played big in WW 1, a horrible chemical catastrophe. BTW, leftover supplies of organophosphate nerve-gas weapons later became the foundation of toxic, pesticide-based industrial agriculture, another Elite (Rockefeller) operation, destroying millions of American family farms to created fodder for the dungeon factories of yet another Elite operation, the Industrial Revolution).
NO bug “escapes” from a lab. Come on. They are released. SARS, Ebola, Marburg, Bird and more (EEE would not surprise – even Lyme) were deliberate-creation fear-mongering and open experimentation that would make drafters of the Nüremberg Code vomit (wireless tech is also a violation thereof). This “outbreak” is a drill, with China showing how it’s done when you want to herd and control the masses.
There are two books that give much historical background detail focusing mainly on the chemicals, including corporations involved: “A Higher Form of Killing,” Harris and Paxman, and the more ‘conspiratorial’ one, “Death in the Air: Globalism, Terrorism & Toxic Warfare,” Horowitz.
In the second article cited by pi, one Dany Shoham, biowarfare specialist, is discussed. It says, in part:
“… it is telling that the Washington Times would bother to cite him at all, especially given the key role he played in promoting false claims that the 2001 Anthrax attacks was the work of Iraq’s Saddam Hussein. Shoham’s assertions about Iraq’s government and weaponized Anthrax, which were used to bolster the case for the 2003 invasion of Iraq, have since been proven completely false, as Iraq was found to have neither the chemical or biological “weapons of mass destruction” that “experts” like Shoham had claimed.”
While the Anthrax aspect was phony (recall Colonel Powell waving the bag of white powder at the UN), Iraq at one time did indeed have a monstrous cache of illegal biochemical WMD, $4bn dollars worth of which were illegally authorized for sale to Iraq by US Commerce in the runup to Gulf “War” One.
These were stored floor to ceiling in huge bunkers the size of 24-hour Walmarts in southern Iraq. One was in the area called Khamisiyah, which ‘ol’ Schwarzti’ talked about in a lying testimony before Congress (Senate, I think).
After Saddam was driven out of Kuwait (into which he was encouraged by the Baker State Dept) ‘US Air’ blasted these bunkers — using another illegal WMD, namely Depleted Uranium munitions — to prevent discovery of the origin of these supplies (Germany too). This put 400,000 troops in a poison cloud with faulty protection gear. The story is told in an extraordinary documentary every US patriot (or critic) should see, called Beyond Treason. https://www.beyondtreason.com/ It includes documents proving the sale – a big boon to the corporate manufacturers of death.
Aside from the bunker bombing, Iraq was cleaned of all WMD by the UNSCOM inspection team led by Scott Ritter, dismissed early in order to leave room for Dubya’s satanic WMD lies.
Speaking of ‘satanic,’ all patriots and critics might want to read about the bombing visited on Iraq as part of Desert Storm, post Operation Iraqi Freedom (these names, what utter bullshit) – all civilian facilities wiped out, not to mention crops and blasted oil fields. More firepower was released in the first 2-3 weeks than in all WW II.
Scroll down to “The Fire This Time” here http://www.dhushara.com/book/death/clark.htm (Warning: any compassion in you will result in tears.) Then the sanctions were laid on resulting in a million deaths – 500,000 kids – mostly from slow, agonizing enteric dysentery, since the only drinking water left was the river, into which bodily waste was being thrown. Americans shopped.
All this allegedly to punish an Elite puppet assisted to power by the CIA in 1979 to have the war with Iran (included the Iran-Contra episode), Saddam’s attempted financial recovery from which then led to the Kuwait invasion…
Whatever the hell you do, folks, do not allow yourself to be stuck with the poison needle for this one.

Marketing is the least of the worries. This is part and parcel of the fundamental purpose of wireless technology – a global tracking, inventorying, indexing surveillance state and direct human-control system in the technosphere. Add nanotech, AI, IoT and transhumanism and you have the recipe for future “life” – total thought, emotion, behavior and choice control in real time at the “push of a button.” Here’s a minuscule glimpse https://www.aclu.org/sites/default/files/pizza/images/screen.swf
Oh, don’t worry too much about retailer file photos. Do you have a driver’s license or other picture ID? Hospital photo? Picture on your phone? The central data base awaits. BTW, even if your phone is off, the microphone can be activated for remote listening.
Tracking is already so good that if you stop into one store for a shirt or blouse, the salesperson at the next store can be waiting with a matching tie or scarf.

Plastic might get stronger, but no less toxic or eternal. Someday the microplastic rain we’re now breathing, eating and drinking may contain graphene. Will it make living things stronger? 🙂
Not to mention that if we don’t quit wireless technology altogether, there may easily not be “the 2030s and beyond.” Because the “race” is on – between ecosystem collapse and human-health collapse. The more ‘technofied’ we become, the more alienated from Nature and the more neurotic and artificially dependent and the more controllable.
It’s like John Lennon said: “Our society is being run by maniacs for maniacal purposes.” It’s a total exploitation of artistically augmented techno-human character flaws – mainly: acquisitiveness.
It’s called the American dream ’cause you have to be asleep to believe it.” – George Carlin
“Trying to be happy by accumulating possessions is like trying to satisfy hunger by taping sandwiches all over your body.” – George Carlin
Just more technomasturbation to sustain “a society bent on its own destruction.”

Although the Chinese Communist Party are not angels, the U.S. government need to take a look at itself and all of the strategies it took over the decades and re-examine the end results of waste, out of control spending, deficits, debt and many other debacles. What annoys me the most is that any government that thinks they have influence will abuse their perceived priviledge and neglect the issues that really matter to many of us.

What a slap in the face we received as citizens. back in 2001, we went to invade Afghanistan to fight the Taliban, who we suspect was aiding and sheltering Osama bin Laden, despite the fact is was allegedly found and killed in Tora Bora, Pakistan. Then, after 19 years later and trillions of dollars wasted, we made a peace treaty with the Taliban. Not to mention with the Afganistan Papers, we were liur own officials who supposed to care and protect their valuable American citizens, repeadedly lied to us for almost 2 decades!

Europe, the Soviet Union and the United States have treated the Middle East like a checker board for decades. Each country had their own share of Petro-Dollar obligations that kept the U.S. Dollar afloat despite Nixon taking it off the gold standard back in 1971. Of couse we also have Israel, a key factor to why the Middle East in such shambles. Iraq is giving birth to a new movement that’s sick and tired of foreign intervention and occupation. This movement will pursue automony and independence from foreign powers. Best of luck to all of them!

Was it engineered by the Pirbright Institute, war gamed at Event 201 and then smuggled into China the following day under the cover of the world military games? Was it maliciously released in Wuhan because the city has an easy-to-point-the-finger-at level 4 biosecurity facility?
Rumours abound. Not being ethnic Chinese, I’m more worried about the social, political and financial damage that will be caused by authoritarian political reactions to it than I am the virus itself.
Gerald is right when he says we mustn’t panic, even if the infection rate does soar, but if i was Chinese I’d be shitting myself.

According to Patricia Negron on Vk.com, Opium production was at an all time low before the US reinvaded in 2001. The Taliban had halted production. Since 2001, opium production has increased nearly every year. We have an opioid crisis here in America – a business opportunity for Big Pharma, naturally, not something it would actually want to alleviate. Opium is likely one of the main, if not the main reason the US will not leave Afghanistan.

One cannot convince Americans who read/listen to mainstream media and watch Cable News that Quaddafi, (and Maduro, Kim Jong-Un, Assad, Morales, etc.) is anything other than an evil dictator who deserved his ghastly ending. The propaganda is so strong it even infiltrates Netflix shows in subtle and not so subtle ways. A Netflix show called “The Family” which has to do with the influence of the Christian right on our government, showed a clip of Quaddafi when an interviewee remarked “we meet with some horrible people – dictators and murderers and thieves…” That ruined the show for me, and I didn’t watch much beyond that.

This could pose serious problems with misidentification. Women who wear a lot of make-up complain that facial recognition systems do not recognise them, or think they are “six different people”. Skilled make-up artists can make a toad look like a Prince… Or a criminal look like their victim.

The money these people waste could go to attacking America’s real problems. Alas, Politics today is a Disgrace. There is literally NO-ONE to vote for. Tulsi would be assassinated if she got anywhere near the presidency. Trump’s State of the Union speech was a reality-show farce – and the last 3 minutes was simply delusional. He certainly does remind one of Mussolini – with the out-thrusted jaw! When seeing Pelosi ripping up that speech I inwardly had to applaud: a stupid, arrogant speech like that deserves to be ripped up! But the ripping up was probably done for the wrong reasons – same as the reasons given for impeachment were the wrong reasons.
All this win-win winning is going to make Trump more belligerent and be elevated even higher on his pedestal, while the “pig without lipstick” (Pompeo) steps up his bullying the world tactics. None of this is good.

This is my 2 cents on US politics of late. I am not an American citizen, I am Swiss and I live in Switzerland. I was made aware by following French politics that Politicians are just a bunch of power hungry weirdos. Same thing in the UK. But for some reason, US politics always appeared to me to be better somehow, more about serving the country and its citizens. Maybe I was biased because I have always loved America, since I was a kid!
Unfortunately, the past 3 years, and the past week in particular made me realise that American Politicians are just as bad as the others. Unfortunately, in terms of appearance, the US has reached new lows, and I am sad to say that the whole world has been watching.
These past few years have gotten gradually worse, and I believe that the world has lost a lot of respect for the USA. I do think that the Democrats are mostly responsible, nonetheless the damage in terms of image around the world is severe and difficult it is difficult to evaluate the long term effects.
If some Americans (I know, not all) want to keep the dollar as the reserve currency, and want others to respect America as the policeman of the world, i’m afraid this political clown show is not going to help at all!
P.S. If you guys fancy a better way of running your country, I suggest you simply do what we do in Switzerland. You can keep the constitution as it is basically identical to the Swiss one anyway. 😉

100% convinced that that the multi-trillion dollar debts around the world are NEVER intended to be paid back. The game is to keep it going until it can’t go no more. There HAS to be a reset at some time. This is why those that have all of their money in stocks/bonds/etc. may never get to use it in the future. It will be gone in a city second one day. You need to keep items of value in your possession. Commodities, Rolex Watches, jewelry,. etc. Things that will have value once the reset occurs. The only question is “WHEN?”.
Personally, I think that they can continue these games for another decade or so. Gerald is correct … “The Greatest Depression” will flatten the world to a level playing field. everybody will be poor except those that prepared for it.

Although the Coronavirus and Boeing’s woes were no contribution to the economy. I can’t believe how Steve Nnuchen still blames only the virus and Boeing, while a world wide decline in mining, manufacturing, distribution and other major sectors of the economy. Politicians need to stop sucking up to the 1%, which is why income disparity and the dissolution of the American middle class has always been the real reason why this global slowdown has been going on since 2007 – 2008 recession. Unrelenting greed of the 1% will destroy the U.S. Consumer Market, which is roughly 70% of the overall U.S. GDP and if there’s a weak middle class, then there will be a weak consumer market, which in turn will be a weak economy!

Christine Legard knows better than that! Come on! We all know that the Coronavirus is only a minor factor of the economic stagnation. Also, the trade war barely has any significance because it only conside of 3% of the overall global economy. As for closed factories and travel restrictions, I personally think an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. If these restrictions never took place then the Coronavirus could’ve been running wild all over the world and would’ve inflicted far more damage to the global economy than its doing right now. But the real cause to this economic decline occuring worldwide is the same across the board. Income and wealth disparity, lack of opportunity, cronyism, nepotism, corruption, poverty and violence.

This is where the “Fake Econonics” or “Garbage Econonics” come into play. Umm…market highs? I wonder what’s causing that? Capital improvements and effectiveness? No! It’s corporate stock buy backs. It’s also mergers and aquisitions too. Oh, I wonder how Trump’s tax breaks for corporations who now pay 21% federal taxes? Did that go to providing quality jobs to American citizens? No! No trickle down econonics never occurred, but the executive compensations and bonuses have occurred. Good gracious! Our stock and capital markets are at an all time high! What’s causing that…humm? I wonder if employee production and proper compensation reflects the company’s true value? No! The Federal Reserve and its Repo-Market contributed at least 6 trillion U.S. (printed) dollars into the market via hedge funds and traders. Can anyone in their right mind and sentience call this an economy? This is an outright scam, sham, scheme and scandal.

I would expect murder in the first degree. There was a drone that nealy killed Maduro last year. But this situation seems just too obvious. Let’s not forget that Putin sent at least two Tu-160 Blackjack Strategic Bombers to Venuzuela and China was sympathetic to Maduro too.

America wake up! In my undergrad there was a motto on the wall for all students to see. “ If it ain’t mined it’s grown.” All things come from the land (and water). In many traditional cultures there is a concept of stewardship over resources needed for existence. The current industries that extract with only the profit motive in mind need to evolve into a stewardship model. With our earth it’s a give and take because we will always need things from her. So don’t vilify the resource and agricultural sectors. Incentivize them to be part of the solution. For example oil platforms can be paired with tasks such as coral reef restoration. Imagine Greenpeace and Exxon holding hands. Hope more policies like this take hold worldwide.

Metals may be “plentiful” but so is the incredibly toxic and destructive mining process.

NO doubt we have the cleverness to find ways to maintain and augment the “Idiotized Society,” namely, CONDITIONED dependence for “prosperity” and even survival, upon self-destructive and suicidal ways and means. The Wisdom to moderate this technomasturbation for survival? Gone missing. What remains is normalized insanity.
This destruction, btw, is deliberate. The very foundation of capitalism and the “manufacturing/consumer economy” (true also of any political iteration using it) is rape/disruption/poisoning—liquidation—of earth to turn it into things and money to drive the toxic economy. Two main purposes. It’s designed to to confer enormous wealth and power upon its psychopath designers which is then used to further manipulate society to their ends.
Also, the worse things get, the easier it’s going to be to implement the Elite plan called Agenda 21 as it plays off the phony CO2/warming fairy tale, a plan to be integrated with the IoT and “Smart” insanity to micro-manage every aspect of what will be transhuman existence. Frogs? Just the beginning. “We are Borg. You will be assimilated.”

As usual, more technology to compensate for the deleterious effects of previous technology, about most all of which one thing is certain, regardless of perceived benefit: it’s toxic. Even the “water rescue” systems contribute.

The actual health impact of the coronavirus is probably less than the hype. However, I think the supply chain disruption and the excuse potential of it are going to be hard to ignore. This is a get-out-of-jail card for the central bankers and politicians who’ve been building the cheap money Ponzi scheme for 10 years, just when the Ponzi system was about to crash all on its own.

I read a person recounting their introduction to game theory in the 1970’s.
The model they used was the accumulation of assets in the economy. The
problem was run again and again, always with the same result. All assets were
accumulated by one player.
The professor was asked how this result could be remedied. “Forcible Redistribution.”
The economic system of capitalism used to avoid this by episodic collapses or recessions
forcing redistribution. What we have now is not capitalism, of which I am becoming less
and less of a fan.
The great question is, will the ever increasing amount of technology available to the elite
help them to escape this fate? Will the rest of us be allowed to participate within our own economic structures for our own and our community’s well being?

One of the things I can remember about the 2008 presidental election was that the repulsicans ran John McCain. One of the charges the democraps levied against electing McCain was that he was too old to be subjected to the rigors of the American presidency. It was at least in my mind at the time a legitimate question. I believe McCain was in his early 70’s then. Sanders will turn 80 years old in the first year of his administration. It’s just as legitimate a question for voters this time around to ask themselves the same thing they were asking themselves when McCain ran: ‘look, he’s got a shot but can we really do this to this old guy? Is it fair to both of us?’ If he manages to beat Trump can we honestly run him again in his mid eighties? Bernie’s VP selection would be crucial as his risk for mental and physical incapacitation will soon skyrocket. I don’t know guys. Maybe he’s got a better formula and maybe he’d do a better job but in my mind just like McCain I think he’s just too dam old for this kinda crap. Whether he switches his forecast or not Gerald is still correct–the election will come down to the battleground states and Trump is still ahead. We’ll see how it goes. Not expecting much either way. Jerome Powell suddenly shutting down the Monetary Methadone (“…sometime later in the year”) to the repo markets could be the October surprise that turns things upside down for the current administration.

Don’t forget the housing price fall combined with interest only loans maturing.
A huge section of the mortgage value in Australia is in interest only loans, fuelled by mum and dad investors who figured real estate was bullet proof, and took advantage of the negative gearing laws that allow losses to be used in income tax returns.
After the 10-12% housing price drop the plan to remortgage after interest only period expiry has evaporated and they will need to start coughing up more dough to pay principal.

A few things not addressed here. Melting plastic changes its properties, so what happens to pavement that’s been plasticized when it finally requires repaving? As it stands, old asphalt is quite re-usable and a valuable material. Will this hold permanently for the plasticized variety?
There is also the question of what happens to any added chemicals in the plastic when it’s melted.
Type of plastic used and the traction factor in the all-plastic road would be interesting to know. Most plastics can be recycled only once or twice. Also wonder whether any chemicals would be outgassing, especially under the hot sun.
If it hasn’t been burned, the first plastic molecule ever made is still with us. Estimate is 500 years for plastic molecules to break down.

I think lynnfwood touches on a critical issue. I’d put it this way – no form of institutionalized government (an Elite construct for mass herding and control) has ever shown itself resistant to infiltration by the global power structure. This isn’t a blow against that establishment, which includes the innate crimes or private banking/interest-bearing debt, and the neo-feudal crime of income taxes, both Elite operations we seem to accept as ‘the way it must be.’
The way I see it, if, after the ‘revolution,’ you still have a BIS-controlled central bank managing your money supply, and you’re still paying taxes, you are enslaved – even if you can gas up the SUV, barbie in the back yard, and watch the game. Totalitarian governments are overtly oppressive. “Free” countries are covertly enslaving. And in both cases, material existence and prosperity are predicated on turning the source of life into things and cash to drive a toxic way of life – capitalist or not. The king is dead. Long live the king.

Gerald has repeatedly noted the “Democraps” and, what, Republicons/Repulsivcons is it? I forget now. But the point is, DC politics is a Dog and Pony Show running a Good-Cop/Bad-Cop routine, the good or bad depending on which set of political dogma one has embraced. Administrations change, the ship of state tacks this way and that, altering the Drama; but the port of call remains the same.
So whichever way the prediction/election goes, the boat’s going basically the same way. And that is to preserve a preposterous. toxic, materialistic (“prosperity”) way of life that’s incompatible with peace and justice. Because the Third World is no accident of economics, but an Elite creation intended to be exploited for resources to keep a first world at a standard of living that, if it were ubiquitous, would destroy the planet in no time.
Other examples of this in principle are the rape of Congo (cobalt), the unceasing attempt to take over Venezuela (oil and many resources), and the ousting of Morales (lithium). The two minerals promise us the shiny techno-future of EV’s and wireless technology, both of which ensure big business for the medical cartel due to the intractable illness they will cause.
Sanders is a gum-flapper who sounds progressive but who does not tell the whole truth. In fact, in this system, no candidate can tell it and “live,” either politically or literally. For example, he (and Liz too) say we must break up and regulate the big banks. This might elicit a “New Deal” kind of goodie feeling, but it doesn’t change anything fundamental, namely that private/central banking per se, with its interest-bearing debt, is the Global Elite’s death grip on nations and people. NOTHING will truly change until we change the way money works. This will require rebuilding this way-down-the-wrong-road society from the ground up.
“I am afraid the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the banks can and do create money. And they who control the credit of the nation direct the policy of Governments and hold in the hollow of their hand the destiny of the people.” — Reginald McKenna, British Chancellor of the Exchequer as Chairman of the Midland Bank, addressing stockholders in 1924
“(The Great Depression resulting from the Stock Market crash) was not accidental. It was a carefully contrived occurrence….The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here so they might emerge as rulers of us all.” – Louis McFadden US Congressman (R-PA) 1915-1935, Chairman of House Banking and Currency Committee. Poisoned in 1936.

I believe the Coronavirus to be THE Black Swan event. As of today, 20 Feb. 2020, the situation in South Korea appears to be already out of control. The same can also be said about Japan with new cases that cannot be traced to China.
I have been following commercial air traffic globally on Flight Track 24. Very few planes above China, Wuhan airport is shut down, but there is still plenty of activity over Japan and South Korea. It is my belief that we are in a Pandemic.
Several Research Papers now seem to point to the same figures. 80-83% of people affected suffer only mild symptoms, but 15%+ of patients get to a stage where they are in a critical state, leading to a mortality rate of people infected of 2.3% (vs the flue which is less than 0.01%).
At the same time the patients showing no symptoms can infect others, with the Coronavirus being generally extremely contagious for a very long period of time (a month or so).
The numbers out of China are not reliable, however the number of cases outside of China are increasing exponentially. I believe that the next 3 weeks are crucial. We will know the real situation by then.
Finally, and this is really just my opinion, I find it hard to believe that the number of cases in the US has really not increased in the past week with only 15 cases being reported. We know that the stock market is being juiced up and I see no reason to trust our authorities to report true numbers concerning this virus either.

February 20, 2020 alex.c
In my opinion the media has been downplaying the effects of the Coronavirus in order to not create a panic in the markets and elsewhere.
China, the 2nd largest economy, is closed for business, and will not re-open anytime soon. Furthermore from what I can tell, South Korea and Japan appear to be in the early stages of an Epidemic as well.
I have to disagree with you Mr. Celente on this one. But we will soon know if this is going to get out of hand globally. Time will tell…

The overwhelming majority of the homeless that my wife and I encounter on a daily basis are mentally ill, and have no way of taking care of themselves, period. They have the mental capacity of children in many cases. This is a much more complex issue than a roof over someone’s head. There is no simple solution, especially when the people making the rules in Sacramento seem to be mentally ill themselves, in a sinister manner.

It’s difficult for us to have compassion for people who complain and don’t understand if you want to improve your quality of life, it will require an extra effort, a plan and quit following the world. I grew up in a family where my father worked 60+ hrs a week while my mother held down a waitress job (4 kids). Our family was taught, no extra effort delivers mediocre results. They worked their tails off and after 10 years of staying on the goal track, the fruits of their labor paid off. We were taught, take care of the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves. I can clearly remember my family going without, while other families on the block had. I didn’t understand why and at times I was embarrassed by it. Do you really need a “new” I phone? or would a used phone work just fine? Do you really need a new car? or would a 3yr old used car work fine? Do you really need 200 cable channels, or would the basic package work? Do you really need that $2000 vacation? or would a creative family road trip work? There’s a 100 more of these examples. How about going without for a period of time, until you reach your goal/plan? Or you could follow the instant gratification world plan.

LA – If China can build 1,000 hospitalized rooms w/bath for Corona in a week the homeless issue could be helped and, it created jobs. I’m not sure of the cost but read – “it will not only be built fast but it also won’t cost much.”. Homelessness flanks a lot of folks for a lot of reasons and many are very capable to fill those jobs, help manage the property, offer their services, and gain a sense of independence and self esteem but, the hard/troubling part is the addiction and some are physically/mentally not well that need services. Not a solution but a big step that could easily be put forth if people really wanted to give/donate instead of trying to fly to mars on a driver-less ship with a bobblehead on the dash.
Love life, always do your best no matter what and, it all works out.

I used to be a college professor teaching art history at a community college. I feel upon hard financial times. I am 70 and am ” housing challenged” . I am priced out of affordable housing. I also worked for the airlines UNITED . I have no pension and no retirement. I was living pay check to paycheck. I was very frugal. Unlike what most people assume about the ” domicile challenged” I do NOT have any mental health problems nor any addictions except drinking a lot of McDonald’s coffee. But I really resent people who make assumptions about those who cannot afford housing. I don’t want the negative associations. I think that the ” homeless” make a huge mistake living in encampments as it will make it easy for a totalitarian government to round them up and put them in FEMA camps? I certainly hope that this fiasco of an economic depression does not happen. People make the mistake that a government can solve problems . With the bureaucracy and examples of the malfeasance of government in the past with lousy services people should wake up and realize that people like Bernie do not have any solutions.

Switzerland has the lowest rates in the world.
However the SNB brought the interest rates down this low, not in an attempt to boost the Swiss economy (which does not need boosting), but in order to make the Swiss Franc less attractive (more expensive to hold) for investors in the ForEx markets. Too much money would otherwise poor into Swiss Francs, pushing its value way too high for Switzerland’s export economy to survive. One only has to imagine all the Germans and the money they have saved in their EURO accounts!!!
The Swiss Franc is still perceived as a safe haven and it is true that the CHF is the Fiat currency which has devalued the less against gold in the past 10, 20, or 100 years.
Of course, for Swiss residents this is not without causing problems. Above a certain amount (CHF 25K to 100K), banks will charge deposit accounts a negative interest rate. Investing in the 10 year Swiss bond will also cost you 0.75% negative interest. Our pension funds now only promise a 1% annual increase on the money we have “given” them for our retirement!
All I know for certain, is that under these conditions, it makes a whole lot of sense to own physical gold and to keep it in a very secure place as far away from the banks as possible…

I have never understood why we need faster networks. I own one old flip phone that set on a bookshelf in my den that I use to make maybe 2 calls a month. I get many more calls than I make and I even answer some of them, my sister, my daughter call every two to three weeks.
I use no wireless devices in my home other than that phone everything else is hardwired Ethernet and I have disabled wifi in all my electronics.
My Internet connection is 25 MB and I can stream video (Trends In The News) and do anything I want on line. Why do I need faster or more?
In my humble opinion 5G is harmful radiation and so is 4G and certainly needs to be proven safe, by a trusted scientific body if one can be found, before being implemented.
If Trump really wanted to stop Huawei he would declare 5G unsafe.

Your reporting of the Israeli-Gaza conflict is one-sided, misleading, guilty of omission and distortion of facts and biased. You did not report on missiles fired into Israel before the bulldozer episode. You didn’t report about missiles and incendiary balloons falling on schools and civilian areas. How would you like to have missiles reign down on your house without warning? How about the constant incitement of the Palestinian authority for citizens to kill Israelis and to pay families of these murderers a pension? If an Israeli wanders into Palestinian territory, their people will almost certainly kill the Israeli. Their citizens illegally infiltrate Israeli cities and murders innocent Jewish civilians. But you ignore those episodes. You complain about Israel building housing in so-called Palestinian territory. But there is no treaty denying Israel to build there. If the PA wants a treaty they can negotiate one. The fact is they don’t because of misguided people like you who support their D- behavior while expecting A+ behavior on the part of Israel. Israel allows Arabs in Israel to build in much of the land in central Israel with little restriction, while Israelis are forced to live in small cubicle apartments in designated areas. As for the UN, don’t quote them as an authoritative and unbiased source of information. They are as bigoted as you are. Our previous ambassador Nikki Haley exposed the fact that 85% of their resolutions condemn Israel and ignore much more egregious activity throughout the world. Stop drawing a moral equivalency between the Palestinian behavior and Israeli behavior. Murdering innocent civilians is not equivalent to building houses on land claimed by both parties. Your lack of factual fair and unbiased reporting is shocking and unworthy of a professional journalist.

Apparently, Mike Pompeo is noted to be a Christian Zionist and many within the Trump Administration are ardent Zionists who support the “Greater Israel Project”. My understanding is that the Christian Zionists want the return of Jesus and Armageddon and the zionists want the return of their Moshiach and to rule the world and control the gentiles from Jerusalem. Will you ever explore this angle Gerald?

Gotta wonder about Bernie. Everyone in the world who has 2 cents and can get someone to quote them is bad mouthing him. That’s usually a sign that he is saying something true. Now I dislike communism as much as anyone and think that it might be slightly more terrible than the Fascism that we now live under.

The way the events are unfolding with this virus is reminding me much too much of 9/11. Problem – reaction – solution. The economy as it stands now in the world is unsustainable and is going to need a reset. It feels like the markets are about to be Silversteined. Every panic story that comes out, and it seems like it’s 24 hours a day now, remind me of the distant boom booms that were heard before the implosions of the towers.

February 27, 2020 Dave from L.A.
I have been writing about this for years. The bottom line is Israel keeps stealing Palestinian land. End of story. It is not land claimed by both “parties.” It is in violation of international law. And speaking of laws, Israel’s Nation-State law passed in 2018 has effective turned it into an apartheid state.

And, if you have an open mind, beyond what I wrote, this is the breaking news from 50 foreign miniister and leader from across Europe “have expressed grave concern about Donald Trump’s Middle East peace plan in an open letter, comparing it to apartheid in South Africa.
“Peace to Prosperity is not a roadmap to a viable two-state solution, nor to any other legitimate solution to the conflict,” the European leaders said in a letter published in The Guardian.
“The plan envisages a formalisation of the current reality in the occupied Palestinian territory, in which two peoples are living side by side without equal rights. Such an outcome has characteristics similar to apartheid – a term we don’t use lightly.”
The list of signatories included former NATO secretary generals, ex-foreign ministers of major European powers, and party leaders.

This is an historical document of our time . documented, not imagined for public consumption. A chapter in history !

February 28, 2020 Malcolm Johnson
Under actual capitalism, the consumer is king. Prices go down, quality goes up. What we have now is simply national socialism where prices go up, and quality goes down. This is where the king is king, and not the consumer. The idea that Trump is a capitalist is absurd. This is a man who is calling for the Fed to directly intervene in the economy, and he wants negative interest rates. These are the policies of a national socialist. They have finally moved the Overton window far enough to where our choices are Soviet socialists or national socialists. Do not support either. This is where the wheat is sifted from the chaff.

I do think for myself
I’m curious, if it’s just the flu, how come is China locking down 700 million people? I did listen to a expert on that matter, he said there’s a Corona pneumonia, that kill about a million people a year in China, but China is 40 billion dollars in debt, 700 million people are locked down. In Iran the deaths from the flu are 6X higher than China stats. You said that only the old and sick of dying, that’s not correct, look at the doctor that first discover it, he was not old, as well countless healthcare worker in China.
Gold is not being manipulated, the Dow has dropped 4000 points this week, they probably had a margin call, traders, are selling “paper gold”that’s leveraged 500 to 1 not “physical gold“. All the rest of the world in buying the physical gold .

ASSANGE TRIAL

February 29, 2020 atlantis
I’m living in Slovenia, right next to Italy. Just a couple of random observations.
Panic shopping
Italians were into panic buying for a couple of days. They’ve also emptied a couple of Slovenian shops near border. It subsided after a couple of days, or so it seems. Our local Hofer (aka Aldi), always quick to react to customer demand, started offering the most hoarded items in 25 kilo packs stacked on pallets, like “Dear customers, is there anything you’d like to hoard? Knock yourselves out. We are always here to satisfy your every need”. As for me, I’ve bought a couple of cans extra, and that’s it. The way my back feels, I’d rather not lug 55 pound packs around.
This one is the most hilarious:

https://i.redd.it/cjlscw6iw3j41.jpg
Taken in Innsbruck Hofer & Interspar respectively.
Surgical masks
No chance of buying them anywhere. A local Chinese controlled company bought the entire supply, and donated it to China in our name (https://www.total-slovenia-news.com/news/5618-coronavirus-slovenia-sends-1-2-million-facemasks-to-china). One can occasionally get them for free in hospitals, dispensed in similar way as toilet paper. If you are lucky. People don’t wear them on the streets, though, not even Japanese or Chinese.
A couple of interesting opinions from the local experts
* There is no way of containing the Coronavirus in Italy. Whatever is bound to come across the border, is gonna come. There’s no way of closing it. Among other things, there are local trains running across the border, utilized by people from both sides.
* The Coronavirus is a sort of cold. The epidemy is going to subside as soon as the temperatures go up. This is also the reason why Coronavirus doesn’t spread in Africa, against all expectations.
* The migrants & refugees coming from the Middle East live in cramped conditions, in unheated tents. There’s so much common cold going around in there, that eventual Coronavirus infection will come & go unnoticed.

Coronavirus Terror
Do not wish to belittle anyone who is sure that Coronavirus is terrible but from all I read it is a form of flue. Disclaimer: I don’t watch TV or listen to regular radio and had to quit reading newspapers about 10 years ago so all I read or hear comes from alternative sources.
One of the clearest on this Coronavirus in my opinion is Bill Sardi at: https://knowledgeofhealth.com/
He has several articles up on the subject and he clearly states that most deaths are old people with compromised immune systems, especially smokers. Weak immune systems is a world wide problem because of the food we eat, stress levels and other modern stressors like – Oh I don’t know maybe social media and government. Anyway if you are truly concerned check his articles and bio for another opinion

So the radiation from FUKUSHIMA is causing human immune systems to fail. We have epidemics like ALM leukemia in the northern hemisphere only caused by radiation exposure. I am distressed because I am one of the less then 1 % who knows the truth. We are NOT going to survive this radiation. It is like the ON THE BEACH movie with Gregory Peck .

Why has Egypt closed this border to this “peaceful” people ?
Why did Jordan kill between 10 and 15 thousand of these “peaceful people” during black September?
Why did Roman Catholics from Lebanon, rape, carve crucifixes into the bodies, and then murder 3,000 of these “peaceful people” at Sabra and Shatilla ?

Thanks Gerald, I think that unless the Fed cuts interest rates say 50 points, the ECB will have to cut rates to keep the Euro from falling to far against the USD. Much of these rate cuts across the world recently are evidence of a currency war similar to the early 1980’s . The goal is still to protect the individual countries currency value.

WEATHER DERIVATIVES AND PANDEMIC BONDS
Wait until you read this. My inbox this week has continued to flood with all manner of articles about the corona virus story, and a big thank you to all of you sending me articles about it (and to those of you also, who have been sending articles about other stories as well). But among these there’s a story that …well… really takes the cake.
But first, do you remember “weather derivatives”? I’ve previously touched upon this subject in various blogs, and the essence of my remarks has always been that “weather derivatives”, as “financial instruments,” are a very handy thing to have around when technology has given “them” the ability to manipulate the weather. It’s one more way for “them” to make freight cars full of money in the ultimate “insider trading” scheme. Or, conversely, it’s a way to set up your financial opponents for a fall: bet that the weather in zone A won’t go as planned, and you can bankrupt your enemies. The bottom line is that “weather derivatives” – in my high octane speculative view at least – are an indicator that “the technology exists.” After all, in dealing with “them” we’re dealing with a group of people that have never seen a market they didn’t try to rig.
Well, “they” have found yet another way to make money on human suffering and misery. First, consider the following story shared by E.G. and many, many others (again, thank you!):
Is Wall Street Behind The Delay In Declaring The Covid-19 Outbreak A “Pandemic”?
Now, if this does not “grab your attention,” I don’t know what will:
In June 2017, the World Bank announced the creation of “specialized bonds” that would be used to fund the previously created Pandemic Emergency Financing Facility (PEF) in the event of an officially-recognized (i.e. WHO-recognized) pandemic.
They were essentially sold under the premise that those who invested in the bonds would lose their money if any of six deadly pandemics hit, including coronavirus. Yet, if a pandemic did not occur before the bonds mature on July 15, 2020, investors would receive what they had originally paid for the bonds back in addition to interest and premium payments on those bonds that they recieve between the date of purchase and the bond’s maturation date.
The PEF, which these pandemic bonds fund, was created by the World Bank “to channel surge funding to developing countries facing the risk of a pandemic” and the creation of these so-called “pandemic bonds” was intended to transfer pandemic risk in low-income countries to global financial markets. According to a World Bank press release on the launch of the bonds, WHO backed the World Bank’s initiative.
However, there is much more to these “pandemic bonds” than meets the eye. For example, PEF has a “unique financing structure [that] combines funding from the bonds issued today with over-the-counter derivatives that transfer pandemic outbreak risk to derivative counterparties.” The World Bank asserted that this structure was used in order “to attract a wider, more diverse set of investors.”
Critics, however, have called the unnecessarily convoluted system “World-Bank-enabled looting” that enriches intermediaries and investors instead of the funds intended targets, in this case low-income countries struggling to fight a pandemic. These critics have asked why not merely give these funds to a body like the Contingency Fund for Emergencies at the World Health Organization (WHO), where the funds could go directly to affected countries in need.
…
Some analysts have argued that these pandemic bonds were never intended to aid low-income pandemic-stricken countries, but instead to enrich Wall Street investors. For instance, American economic forecaster Martin Armstrong has called the World Bank’s pandemic bonds “a giant gamble in the global financial casino” and a “scheme like no other,” recently arguing that these bonds could present a “a structured derivative time bomb” that could upend financial markets if a pandemic is declared by WHO. Armstrong went on to say that it is in WHO’s interest to declare the coronavirus outbreak a pandemic, but noted that, in doing so, they would cause bondholders to take significant losses.
And, just in case you’re wondering if this is actually true or not, V.C. shared this version of the story:
It says pretty much the same thing:
f there is a pandemic, the World Health Organisation gets to keep money and the bondholders lose. You figure out who would be asking for help.
For those who are not part of the conspiracy networks, this is related to the outstanding World Bank Pandemic Bonds which will come due for expiration this July here in 2020. This will be in the neighborhood of $500 million which is perhaps a structured derivative time bomb that most people have never heard of.
These pandemic bonds were sold to investors as a giant gamble in the global financial casino. The World Bank sold “pandemic bonds” which were a scheme like no other. In 2017, these bonds were sold to private investors on the premise that they would lose their money if any of six deadly pandemics hit. They did not pay out in 2019 when the Ebola virus broke out in Africa. The World Bank announced the creation of these structured bonds in May 2016 at the G7 Finance Ministers and Central Governors meeting in Sendai, Japan.
The World Health Organisation will keep the money and will use it to fight the outbreak. Investors bought the bonds and received regular coupon payments in return, which were substantial in this world of negative interest rates. If there is an outbreak of disease turned into a pandemic, then investors don’t get their initial money back. There are two varieties of debt that are scheduled to mature in July 2020.
For those of you who’ve been following the rising chorus of people questioning this or that aspect of the corona virus story, especially those who question the numbers and the narrative, this should be disturbing, because it means, effectively, that whoever controls the media narrative and the institutions making the ex cathedra statement that “it’s a pandemic” gets to make the money. This is especially disturbing given that it’s not entirely certain we’re dealing with “just a virus” at all, but may be dealing with a combination of technologies, for example, virus activated by signals, a kind of bio-electric phenomenon. If it should be declared a pandemic, then a lot of people will lose their money… disease has been financialized as a means of harvesting wealth…
… a convenient thing to have around when you have the technology to create the disease…
…Weather derivatives, meet pandemic bonds; pandemic bonds, meet weather derivatives…
And all of this over an alleged virus that appears not to have a very high mortality rate.
Except in China.
Oh, by the way, there’s another geopolitical wrinkle to the story as well according to this story shared by D.P.:
Russia hasn’t had any new coronavirus cases. Why is that?
Amid all the speculation about the story being about bio-economic warfare against China, you can add that one of its implications might be to undo China’s whole “one belt one road” initiative; with travel restrictions being clamped down, trade will ultimately suffer, and in Russia’s case, new sources of financing and technology for its own “northern routes” of the silk road will have to be found (think Japan).
So what’s the bottom line? If there is one, I suspect that it’s this: we’re dealing with monsters utterly lacking in any humanity, for financializing disease and plague is simply taking a chapter out of the playbook of the Most Serene Republic of Venice, which “republic” appears not to have died, but merely metastasized

I serve alongside men, well fellow teenagers then, who were drafted into the US Army and who were deployed to Vietnam even though they had asthma.
So, there wiil be no reform or challenge permitted to the current corporatist political party. Trump will be re elected or, given how the beer virus may invoke banning of normal voting and supposed foreign influence invoke national security measures against elections, shall serve a second term.
Although, Trump is trying, on the surface, to extract America from Afghanistan.

SUPER BUG OR SUPER FLY ?
I am not sure what to make of this particular global outbreak given all the spotty news and over coverage by the media. Quite a few unknowns. I got a real bad cold and bronchial cough two weeks ago. I still have the cough when I talk for 10 minutes (on the phone with Jamie, for example). I like to start with what I DO know, so here it goes:
First, I believe I was contaminated by a thoughtless (infected) Anglo member at the local YMCA in the exercise room. ( “Nigger in every Woodpile” kind of situation). I recognize its not polite or politically correct, but unfortunately the idea is spot-on re: groups or while in public places (indoors), especially gyms and clubs ( Petri Dishes).
So, let’s look-up the exact medical description of the common cold and its symptoms and mode of action: https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/infectious-diseases/respiratory-viruses/common-cold
My thoughts as a layman are the Corona Virus may be a variant of the common cold or a mutated version, based upon its molecular or genetic structure. ( I am not an Organic Chemist so I leave that to the virologists). The talk of Cobra meat and bat meat somehow causing this virus is rather speculative. It fits the mood of the times but honestly, where are the linkages and evidence?
So, until I get more credible information, I won’t fully accept this rather “exotic” explanation. Its too convenient and clean cut. Life is not always so simple. ( What if the experts said it came from a tribe of isolated natives who cannibalize their fellow colleagues?) More hysteria and reason to panic and be afraid.
All I know is when I was a kid the common cold lasted maybe a few days. Now, its 7-10 days with the runny nose and cough persisting into the second or third week. True, as we age our immune system is less efficient, so at 65 maybe it takes that much longer for white blood cells to build-up sufficient numbers to tackle a alien invader (virus). My gut feeling is we now have “super-bugs” of which the generic common cold feels like and perhaps, what the Corona Virus actually is.

HOW GOVERNMENTS CONTAMINATE EVERYTHING THEY TOUCH
Japanese researchers concluded the virus first began in the United States and then “Patient Zero” brought it to the wet market in Hunan, China where it rapidly spread person-to-person in China. Thus, they finger America, in response, America fingers the Chinese. Where is the real science here? It has become political, as is most every other subject such as the weather. Thus, “Politics” is the virus that contaminates all subject matter everywhere. There is no escape either.

March 6, 2020 Craig Bradley
With all things combined, coronavirus mortality might actually be negative in China. It saved more lives than it took by lowering the air pollution.

March 6, 2020 andrej
A Canadian BSL4 lab involved; two Chinese scientists from the same lab booted out; head of the same lab suspiciously dies of a heart attack in Africa during the early days of the outbreak; an IDF-connected Harvard scientist arrested; stolen and smuggled samples seized en-route to China; Fort Detrick BSL4 lab rapidly closed down in September; Event 201 WEF/Gates ‘war gaming’ of the outbreak; a Gates funded institution owning the virus patent; a vaccine-in-waiting (?) produced in Israel; Iranian government officials rapidly and badly and affected; five different strains reported within weeks of the break out: seems to me that this is a plot involving an international (globalist) cast of suspects. Were the Chinese scientists and sample smuggler double agents or working for the CCP? Is this an extra-governmental/globalist plot designed as a Trojan Horse for the NWO? Was it set up to act as a scapegoat for the coming economic crisis? A CIA plot designed to obliterate China in the trade war? So many suspicious angles, ‘coincidences’ and players; intense and overt social media censorship of wrong-think… So many questions and so few answers.

UPDATE
My colleague’s husband became sick & tested positive. Our employer’s actions:
* Arranged work from home wherever possible. Alas, it turned out there was a silent panic buying going on for the last couple of weeks which nobody noticed: Enterprise grade laptops. Current delivery time: 3 months, probably more, supply chain problems and all. For a fintech firm, for which the cybersecurity is paramount, setting up a work from home is not a trivial matter. Not any laptop will do.
* Those unlucky bastards (myself included), that didn’t get company laptop, must disinfect their hands when entering premises until further notice. Bottles of hand disinfectant gel already were available in WCs. I’ve noticed usage of paper towels went through the roof today. I guess people decided to wash their hands for a change.
* Use of cafeteria is forbidden… in principle, I guess. AFAIK I’ll use it anyway. I can’t properly function without my regular dose of coffee. I’ll do my best to refrain from the excessive flirting for a while, though.
* New sick leave policy was introduced; “If you feel sick, stay at home. No questions will be asked, and there will be no consequences whatsoever. But there will be consequences if you come to work sick.”
In all… AFAIK, the above measures seems reasonable enough. Protecting people as much as possible, while leaving business process as undisturbed as possible. One of my close colleagues panicked, and demanded more determined action (whatever that might be). He was promptly shouted down.
At the end of the shift, those with company laptops (our managers included, of course) bid farewell to those without them as follows: “Bye! See ya when I see ya”, answered by “If I see ya. Good luck! Bye!”
So. Maybe I’ll appear at my workplace on Monday, maybe not. If I don’t, there will be no consequences, or, so they said. At the moment, though, it seems to me that there will actually be less virus spreaders around there than anywhere else, hygiene, hand disinfection, and all.

Awe I miss the music at the end of the broadcast. I wish you had a way to show off your taste in the Jazz music scene; I’m guessing it is because of Youtube and copyrights. Maybe a page on your web site to bring about some of those boogie beats as we watch this market turn… its a nice moment of Zen after learning the trends.
Thank you either way…

This is more like CONvid-19; this is a deception on a scale of Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds. They have taken a flu and convinced people that it is the Black Plague. I have had the flu several times in my life and you definitely feel like you’re going to die, but people recover from this all the time. This is just another case of problem-reaction-solution. The most alarming thing about this “crisis” is that the overwhelming majority of people do not recognize that all corporate media information sources are agenda-driven propaganda. Until people realize there is no such thing as “news” they will be led like sheep to the slaughter.

the doctors in this article recommends minimum of vitamin C, 1000 mg daily taken 3 times a day to prevent and cure any coronavirus and the flu. It is safe and the excess will be excreted. the larger doses will help you recover faster, especially when you take it before 8 hours of sleep. they recommend 4 other nutrients too. I also recommend Dr. Thomas E. Levy book: Curing the Incurable: Vita C , infectious diseases and toxins 3rd edition.

The DNC and Bloomberg have turned the “debates” into a farce. The primaries are a travesty. I hope most voters can finally recognize the corruption of both parties which are actually the right and left wings of one party. Bernie is the only chance to reform the Democrats without a bloodbath revolution . if he is cheated again, I am voting Green Party.

I keep on thinking what could be the agenda behind all this talk of this widespread virus that is apparently deadly? I agree that this could be another case of problem-reaction-solution, another 9-11 moment. By spreading this fear throughout the population, it makes the people look to their leaders and depend on them for a solution, making themselves subservient and obedient, willing to follow anything, just the kind of disposition that those in power want from them.

Back in the 90’s I took a weekend seminar for continuing education needed to maintain my license. The hours were presented by a Dr. representing the CDC and the topic was HIV transmission in the clinical office setting. During a break I caught the physician in the hall and we had this conversation. I asked him why it’s possible to contract the human immunodeficiency virus from a shared needle among IV drug users but not from the needle of a mosquito that’s engorged with blood from an infected person considering that they spread viruses like West Nile and Zika. While he hemmed and hawed I noticed that he was wearing a cross on his jacket. I pulled out mine from around my neck and said, “I will not repeat what ever you say.” I’m infected and you are not and we’re in a closet full of female mosquito. I’m bitten and the insect bites you. What are the odds of your infection?” He replied, “60 40 against. If you repeat that I’ll deny it.” He then handed me a card with the number of the CDC in Washington and asked that I call them and request all information on aids transmission and told me to read “Aids and the Doctors of Death” by Alan Cantwell M.D. which is the factual account of the spread of aids in Africa from very defined epicenters which followed a WHO inoculation program, and the identical happening in the US among gay men. Sorry Dr. I think enough time has passed to repeat what you told me confidentially. I read the book. Dr. Cantwell is a serious researcher who followed up on work done by another physician who had researched the spread in Africa. Most if not all of the developed nations have advanced biological weapons programs including the United States. Here’s a link to congressional testimony given by a Dr. Macarthur in 1969 requesting 10 million dollars to develop a virus which would be refractory to the human immune system. That is the very definition of the human immunodeficiency virus. http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/AIDS3.html I see this research as part of the insanity of the age when nuclear weapons and biological weapons are thinkable.

Please explain what BLOCKCHAIN is? This is the first that I have heard of this. But what about the ELE extinction level chain reaction nuclear problem in FUKUSHIMA ? Radiation is taking down the entire planet that is the real cause of the corona virus problem everyone’s immune system is down suppressed because of this ” radiation fallout” on going 9 years! Even if we can recoup financially we still have a death of planet scenario. Fukushima was the equivalent OF 40,000 Hiroshima BOMBS BEING DETONATED ! We have a total collapse of the west coast fishing industry with salmon NOT returning and that that has returned is deformed and sick with cesium 134. 137 according to yahoo news report. Also the massive die offs millions and millions of fish and sea life? It really is a death scenario. We have three complete meltdowns at FUKUSHIMA . People are getting sick because their immune systems are compromised. If you have chemo and radiation you literally have NO IMMUNE SYSTEM FUNCTION! So what can we do about this debacle of the ecosphere? There is no known protocol for CHINA SYNDROME! Jane Fonda movie THE CHINA SYNDROME and the GREGORY PECK movie ON THE BEACH! Look its worse then people know! Bob Nichols veteran on FUKUSHIMA and Michio Kaku Japanese physicist and Japanese journalist Yoichi Shimatsu . So what do we do now? It is game over!

It is the big cover up of the FUKUSHIMA radiation ! There are three reactor meltdowns! It is the radiation ! They are lying to cover their behinds. it is the BIG LIE ! The Energy Department does NOT want to be sued by angry people ! FUKUSHIMA is an ELE EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT ! It has destroyed the Pacific ocean and we have been getting heavy rads all over the northern hemisphere on going 9 years! BOB NICHOLS has been documenting the FALL OUT! He says the human race will NOT survive the rads. He posts the radiation counts over major USA cities. It is the end of the human race. ALL THIS STUPIDITY ON THE NEWS MEDIA is to divert the public from the reality of a nuclear end to our lives from FUKUSHIMA! The Pacific has collapsed the west coast fishing industry has collapsed but nothing is said about this on the news. It is like the movie ON THE BEACH starring Gregory Peck and the movie CHINA SYNDROME starring Jane Fonda! The energy department is afraid of LAWSUITS USS Reagan was exposed to lethal levels of radiation off the coast of Japan and also 16 others. They have a lawsuit on youtube. GET ANGRY ABOUT THIS PEOPLE ! People are dying from FUKUSHIMA radiation cancers skyrocketing and ALM leukemia is off the charts children and older adults. It is only caused by radiation exposures. MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WILL DROIP DEAD because of FUKUSHIMA but they will say its a virus but its the population being hit with high rads from FUKUSHIMA! When people have chemo and radiation for cancer their immune system function is compromised! This is what is really going on happening. People will want to hang the politicians and the scientists who have covered up this HUGE environmental disaster. The anger will be intense as loved ones and children die from the radiation.

Another rumor was AIDs originated from monkeys or chimps in Africa. Seems there is always some kind of animal to human cross-over suggested when a new disease or virus suddenly makes its global debut. Rumors and stories all over such that the general public never finds closure or a single true explanation. Nobody conclusively knows for sure, as a matter of fact, even Medical professionals like yourself.
You can just bet in the early nineties that some Foreign Aid Workers ( UN and NGO’s) were doing more than treating local natives in grass huts in the field. AID workers probably had sex with local Africans on occasion, and contracted AIDs in the process. UN & NGO workers as possible vectors for international AIDs contagion? Your guess or “opinion” is as good as mine or anyone else’s for that matter.
You make researched inferences but its all unverified. The Biological weapons lab rumor is always around too when a new disease of virus epidemic erupts. We are just living in “Interesting Times” as the old Chinese Curse suggests. No getting away from it regardless.

ALL TRENDS END, EVENTUALLY
James Cash Penny opened his first store in Kemmerer, Wyoming ( the mother store). Its still open, as far as I know. Its interesting that Penny’s expanded to what it became and now with its stock likely to be delisted soon, headed back to its roots. Sears is in the process of going-away eventually too, along with a graveyard of former venerable retailers like Monkey Ward, Good Guys, and Circuit City. No more catalogue sales from either Sears or Montgomery Ward either.
The Internet and principally Amazon.com have sucked the air out of the Mall. Malls are in decline nationwide too. I suspect its related to generational (demographic) issues, as the Baby-Boomers are not buying much in retirement, but rather, more likely to be selling things and downsizing. America is aging.
National birth rates are way down from the 1960’s too. Immigration is flat or static for now. California’s population is shrinking instead of growing for the first time since 1945. ( Population stuck at 39.9 Million Calif. residents ). I think the State of California may be at risk of losing a Congressional seat or two after the 2020 census. Probably not adding more representatives in any event. Population trends reverse. Ever since Horace Greeley gave his advice to the young people of his day to “Go West, young man”, the trend of people moving farther West has proven to be a quite persistent for the last three generations. However, nothing lasts forever. Most trends eventually reverse.
The real question here for Trends Expert Gerald Celente is: What is the next or coming major population or migration trend, both in America and globally looking forward? Smart Millineals today will figure it out and catch a ride on the (next) big wave. The rest (majority) will just be stuck in-place and ultimately left behind.

Covid-19 test kit production price: 2.5€. Produced by https://www.tib-molbiol.de/index.html
The owner of the company says he doesn’t care about the money. He considers it too bothersome to pay attention to. Usually he charges about 60€ per kit, sometimes a bit more, sometimes a bit less, and sometimes he gives them away for free.

There is no way to know the death rate unless you test a group of individuals known to be around other people who have tested positive, then use that group as the control group and test all of them multiple times. That is why you hear estimates from .1%-8%, the Dept of Homeland Security announce 3 days ago that their estimate (guess) was between 0.1%-1%. Add in different demographics based on age, gender, medical history etc and the numbers would vary based on demographics. IOW’s any estimates are merely guesswork at this point and the best control group thus far was the cruise ships
You stat was from available info from John Hopkins, 81K infected 2800 deaths is 3.4%; the number is likely much lower since the number of cases is likely much greater.
Try to find the numbers for the cruise ships and they are buried; you cannot find them now in detail. Why? Because those numbers do not match the controlled narrative. The cruise ship death rate was at or less than the the seasonal flu.
Science is not science when it is based primarily on guess work, which is why it changes or is fluid. Climate change is another example; it is politicized, then you can bet it is not based on real science. It is how we end up wit “transgender”, which does not exist except in the minds of the mentally ill.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER AMERICA LOST THE “MORAL” HIGH GROUND ?
President Trump needs some spectacular policy moves (successes) designed to shore-up public and investor confidence, currently a commodity in very limited supply. If not, he is very much at risk, especially if the S&P 500 Index and therefore, people’s retirement accounts decline by say -40% by Nov. If that happens, no incumbent could possibly survive. ( Shades of Herbert Hoover again).
Gerald Celente has already gone on-record ( Previous Trends Journal Cover Story ) of stating that President Trump already started “WWIII” when he recently authorized the Assassination by Drone of Iranian General Soleimani. The Iranian leadership won’t forget it anytime soon either. So, the spark of war has ALREADY been ignited and the fire is going to spread, regardless of our domestic politics or personal pinions. WE have now lost the High Ground and are in collective free-fall.
The ONLY exception I can possibly think of would be a New Middle East War. The most likely place for it in recent years would be against Iran. I sure would not rule it out at this point. Events are moving very fast behind the curtain. If I were President Trump, I would seriously consider playing the “War Card” under these dire political conditions. A relatively fast war seemingly out-of-the-blue (Blitzkrieg) against The Islamic Republic of Iran would be popular at home since we already “built a case” against Iran, so a war action would likely be seen by many conservative or Trump voters as a “justified” use of Military Force in view of past conflicts with Iran.
Besides, I think the “Deep State” wants this war anyway, and this may be their secondary goal all-along: to put President Trump in a position where he really has little choice under the (political) circumstances. ” So, If its “going to be Him or Me”, then guess who gets short thrift? Iran is the “Him” in this survival situation. Israel is a factor, as well. If President Trump does not do it, the next guy, a Democrat probably will. In any event, War is coming soon. The same exact thing happened in the 1930’s. When global economies turn-down, wars usually heat-up. A new global war or “WWIII” is inevitable now that the global economy is sinking fast. Its a process, of course. I actually predicted to a friend in Oregon back in 2006-2007 that WWIII is overdue. It was very unpopular up there to speak so candidly. How little did I really know it back then. Better Lucky than Good. Call it fate, because, its too late.

The problem that they face today is not only the fact that the country is bankrupt but the imposition of a police state coupled with going to war could likely initiate a revolution.

@ Craig Bradley. I read your comment and this paragraph stands out –
“If I were President Trump, I would seriously consider playing the “War Card” under these dire political conditions. A relatively fast war seemingly out-of-the-blue (Blitzkrieg) against The Islamic Republic of Iran would be popular at home since we already “built a case” against Iran, so a war action would likely be seen by many conservative or Trump voters as a “justified” use of Military Force in view of past conflicts with Iran.”
In that case “these dire conditions” would be infinitely more dire… I would have thought that would be obvious – but Hell, if it makes Trump win and appear “justified” to his base – sure! Nevermind about innocents under the rubble.

This coronavirus hysteria is a way of governments to trigger a crisis in order to blame it on something. The crisis would have come in 2021 but then everybody would have just blamed governments for not averting it. Now the crisis is triggered artificially and everybody can blame the virus and feel better thinking we couldn’t have avoided it.
All important governments have something to gain out of this madness.
Unsustainable retirement plans ? The virus killing the elderly solves it. Don’t have to pay any more pensions now since the elder get killed by the virus.
Market crashed and Chinese got to buyback their shares at low prices? Well what do you know, after they got back their shares, the virus apparently stopped spreading in China. Surprise surprise.
All those artificial businesses, which were complete nonsense and unsustainable will get shutdown and economy will be cleared of wanna be entrepreneurs and they will get back to work instead of dreaming of 1billion dollars valuation of their startups.
It’s a reset of the economy and the way of living which many got accustomed to but was unsustainable.
As you say Gerald, nobody is protesting in HK. How about Iran or France ? Is it a coincidence the virus struck harder in those places ?
You can’t protest if you are not allowed to go out.
Stay home, buy tone of toilet paper and cans.
I spoke to a lady working at the local supermarket and I asked her jokingly if they ran out of toilet paper because the shelves are empty. She said that every day people come and buy all the toilet paper on the shelves, but the truck comes daily and brings more toilet paper. She offered to get me some toilet paper from the back since the truck just left minutes ago. I politely declined. I will buy it when I need it. She said the same truck will come tomorrow, the day after tomorrow and so on, and she is wondering what are people doing with so much toilet paper.

You’re spot on with your comments that your greatest fear is not the failing economy, but the rising police state. Couldn’t agree more. We need far fewer laws and much less power concentrated in government hands, not more. This is a recipe for disaster and anyone with even a little knowledge of history can see that when greater and greater power is concentrated in the hands of government, it paves the way for tyranny to arise, whether it’s the tyranny of a single individual or the tyranny of a small group of people. And with all that technology in the hands of such people, their rule is almost guaranteed forever. This is where it’s heading. To now change the course of what will unfold is going to take something of biblical proportions. It’s largely out of our hands, and also it isn’t. This is the great paradox.

March 12, 2020 mnpund
In my earlier post – it would have been better to have written Cascading Failures, intended or unintended, etc. In complex systems it is common for one failure to cascade into other system failures.
Gerald’s comment on the growth of our police state is true in spades.
Worse yet we can expect no useful information from government. All politicians lie and omit facts, corporations lie all the time and withhold important information, public employees lie and hide any information that might lead to criticism and the so called media are just plain irrelevant. Those of us interested are left to the few resources available on the Internet when seeking useful information and The Trends Journal is one of those few resources.
I suspect that as the police state begins implementing control we will see increasing attacks of the free flow of information on the last refuge of free thought.

Satan is the father of ALL lies! These people who are “the puppet masters” must be sociopaths? My question is what is their ultimate plan? To me it is obvious we are being ” manipulated” but to what ends to what purpose? I don’t have any money in the stock market. Too bad I did not invest in a rare mineral known as ” coltan” used in high tech devices and on hulls of space craft super conductive. So Mr. Celente what is the remedy to extricate us from these horrible machinations? I like people who come up with solutions. Most people are suspicious about this ” corona virus’ and wonder what the heck is going on? We lost our freedoms with THE PATRIOT ACT that was the beginning of the end of our country. I can’t deal with a Depression. My bank on Tuesday wanted a contact a trusted friend to verify my account . This was BANK OF AMERICA. They never asked for a name to attach to my account in the case of my demise or illness? They said I had to name a beneficiary someone they can call if they need to get ahold of me? Are the banks going to collapse or freeze accounts? I am on social security disability. Are they going to seize the ” derivatives” since the Frank Dodd act expired we have no protection on our accounts. the banks can seize them at any time? DEPRESSION ? DEPRESSED OVER DEPRESSION . So are they going to round up everyone and put them in FEMA camps? I have a young friend who works at Trader Joes and he is now stuck in Europe. He may be in ITALY! no one has heard from the young man. BIDEN is BRAIN DEAD. The Democrats are standing behind a man who cannot function.

You know, GC, if you ask your average American “Do politicians lie?”, I would have to say that nine out of 10 would give you a smirk, and with a fake wisdom say “Of course they all lie.” But those same people, when the government tells them something, they believe it. There is no discernment between good and bad and right and wrong amongst the public currently. I’ve said this before, the world does not need leaders. The Prince of Peace is our leader.

It is clear that you strongly disagree with closing businesses and institutions as the method to slow the spread of the virus but you neglect to offer a better solution. I love your theatrics but what are you saying past the finger pointing and name calling–are we to just continue our daily routine as if the virus is a non-event?
2nd comment: why dont you mention Ergodan’s aggression towards Greece and the Syrian humanitarian crisis at the Greek-Turkish border. Its funny to me how some human misery gets plenty of air time while the misery of others is marginalized. I understand that TJ is not a news outlet and yet it is through the news that we discern the trends.

Will slowing the spread of the virus make it stop and go away or will it just slow the spread so that we will all eventually get it anyway? No one seems to be asking that question. If it’s just going to slow it down then why not let nature take its course and let if rip through so we get it over and done with quickly, you know like ripping a bandage off real quick instead of taking it off slowly and prolonging the pain. Who’s to say that slowing this thing down is going to have less health risks for the overall population? We don’t know that and who knows if the economic fallout from all this is going to cause more chaos and death than the rapid spread of the virus itself? Those giving orders are all ignorant puppets following orders from other ignorant puppets that are higher up this foolish social hierarchy we have constructed. All their actions on this are based on appearances, ie what seems to be the best course of action, when no one knows what the best thing to do in such a crisis is, other than to be patient, but we love to take these guys seriously and pretend that this social game means something. Our desire to follow them is based on fear, the fear that maybe all this time we have been deceived into believing them to be of greater importance than what they are. We are afraid of having the veil of illusion taken away and the true nature of things revealed, the sheer pretense and falsity of titles and names and status, of wealth and position and how all this time what we stood intimidated by, that what kept us in chains and prevented us from truly living was all a lie and a falsehood.

The collapse was coming either way… However, the ‘convenient’ virus arrived just in time to act as the mask for use by those spreading the virus of corruption and so, now we have an excuse for the depression… a convenient scapegoat that means, many will be duped into believing, it had nothing to do with the crooks and charlatans running the world, but it was a flu-like virus that was responsible … and when China sneezed the world caught a cold!

Gerald nailed it on destroying local economy. I’ve been going to my local Farmers Market on Saturday morning longer than I have not. This morning the vendors were concerned because the customer count was down some 70% or so. How many in my area have been diagnosed with the virus? Zero! How long can my best clean food source sustain itself under these conditions? We will see.

Where will all of this “money” the Feds will spend on COVID come from? Thin air? Is it actually earmarked from the tax budget? And, hey, what is the deal with the murder of Philip Haney (February 22nd) of the US State Department after requesting information on COVID in Iran from a Russian expert Olesya Krasilova ending with Haney’s murder and Spain jailing Krasilova (February 16th) and being expected to extradite Ms. Krasilova to the US? And, what about the US attorney Timothy Delgado, investigating the murder, and then being murdered himself on March 8th? And, how about the CIA plane holding tons of cocaine crashing in Belize February 27th, with the crew mysteriously “escaping”? What is happening here? Could it be that the same people who read Orwell and Huxley, instead of recoiling in horror, saying let’s use those as our playbooks for world conquest? Iran had the world’s highest death rate from COVID while the US government denies said nation medical supplies. And, blaming the victim in China? Has our nation been transformed into a Luciferian cult?

The French remedied the monarchy when they tore down the Bastille. The French revolution went on for 15 years? The problem with our government is that there is collusion on both sides. Too bad the LIBERTARIANS aren’t in charge. We would have a freer society and less control. People don’t like to be controlled. All dictators and repressive regimes use ” fear tactics’ to get people to make irrational decisions. We should just tell these leaders that we don’t want to play their game turn off the media and shun the despots!

NOTHING ADDS UP! Remember it is a” for real” REALITY TV SHOW ! One of my favorite sci fi movies was THEY LIVE! In the movie there was a tv station like CNN and it turns out that evil et aliens are hypnotizing the masses with an energy beam so that they cannot see the et aliens among them. The transmitter is turned off and everyone sees these evil et aliens! It is a great paranoia movie but the plot seems to parallel CNN and their bogus productions.

Hey Gerald, why have you not touched on the Cannabis trend anymore (not so convenient lately)? Since the wake of the severe correction to the Cannabis market in 2019 all Marijuana companies are down HUGE (over 80%+)…COMPLETE COLLAPSE!!! What gives man? You had stated the sector will see the highest increase in jobs and market expansion, what will be the impact to these companies during the GREAT DEPRESSION? Did you factor that in? I recall the special article by your Cannabis market expert Bradford Beckerman (Hennepens.com) pushing the Colombian company PharmaCielo (after a visit there for which you never disclosed any potential conflict of interests), since that article went to print back in March 2019 PharmaCielo has lost over 93% of its stock value (deadly crash from $9/share to 0.55/share – thank goodness I avoided that trap!!). I would appreciate you providing more precise timing for these type of predictions especially when you get it WRONG or perhaps you got the timing WRONG (as the saying goes EVEN A BROKEN CLOCK IS RIGHT TWICE A DAY) . You were right on with the GOLD BULL RUN, but not so good on other fronts – another example was BITCOIN when your analyst Johnathan Cho predicted a deeper collapse in 2019 and instead BITCOIN surged to the upside (I don’t hear about Jonathan Cho so much anymore, why?!). Please don’t take my feedback harshly, just speaking my mind and trying to keep this forum objective. I appreciate and value the TJ and your perspective. Think for myself Gerald – ain’t that right 🙂

Comments from the proletariat concerning the Chaos throughout the land.
I noticed that the fatter a person is the more toilet paper they are buying. Here in central Florida near but, not in the Villages Retirement heaven, I have seen several new mega construction sites for new homes of several hundred acres – wonder if that was borrowed money? Ditto for many new and remodeled strip malls, nice timing.
Had a friend send a frantic email this morning exclaiming that money can contain the coronavirus. I kindly wrote back informing her so can that toilet paper and those packages of water that your buying. I may have lost a friend which I can ill afford.
“Folks” (in my opinion) Gerald is right about the worst part of this media/state generated fear is the police state that will follow – hell it’s already hear. Gary Barnett write on Lew Rockwell.com today about the 40 states that have already passed Model State Emergency Health Powers Act (MSEHPA) and provides a link to the Document if your interested.

In fact there are many well written articles on the web that provide balance to this story though they may upset the America is the Greatest crowd. How about suspicions that US Intel Agencies are the prime movers in classifying planning meetings as reported by Whitney Webb here: https://www.mintpressnews.com/us-intelligence-unsettling-role-classified-9-11-like-coronavirus-response/265687/
I am also amazed that no one talks about natural healing and immunity for this coronavirus such as vitamin D, Vitamin C, zinc. All written about frequently by Bill Sardi at his web site: https://knowledgeofhealth.com/
Finally, an excellent article full of additional references by Yvonne Lorenzo as posted on Lew Rockwell.com: https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/03/yvonne-lorenzo/chinas-response-to-american-allegations-on-covid-19/
That’s a short list of places you can actually read stories that don’t echo government and pharmaceutical talking points.
I don’t say that they are all correct just that they present alternatives to think about as you determine for yourself, as Gerald repeatedly challenges us to do, what is true, false, and possible.
Gerald gives us Trends based on what he sees and when I read other people who seem to agree with his analysis and opinions that adds credence to what he is telling me. And – no I don’t always agree with him nor do I always like what he says but, mostly he makes a hell of a lot of sense.

ARE WE NOW ENGAGED IN A PARADIGM SHIFT ?
I see no way to maintain an uninfected stock market indefinitely that has little real connection to the world and economy about it. As an analogy, whenever you push the “shut down” tab on your Microsoft Windows computer, then what happens next? Either a “Forced closure of programs” that are running or you can “cancel” the action. We collectively have chosen a economic shutdown. Quarantines are just part of the process already in-play. So, Its more “feel-good” politics at its very best. Are you feeling good lately ?
Corona-Gate can not be cancelled. The cruise ships are all headed back to port, the airlines grounded, and the economy, or large portions of it are shutting-down. Eventually, the authorities must re-start the economic system. The million dollar question is: In what form will it be once restarted? Until they do, …… Contrived is the word here. Significantly more people die from the flu every year and the potential population of infected patients is infinitely higher with the old, Plain Jane flu virus in most years. So, are we are being played by the Pols who got bad (medical advice) ?.

What a dark weekend for our nation. Nineteen years ago, when the military junta that runs this country first attacked the Constitution, they used airplanes, missiles, and nano thermite for the attack. All these years later, after trillions wasted in the mis-education system, all it takes to finish off the Constitution is the flu and stupidity. “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge”.

Possibly the globalists/one worlders have conspired to trigger an already bloated stock market to crash. It would be a miracle if Trump were reelected in a free fall market, historically speaking. Or maybe they are practicing for a real police state lockdown in the future in order to gain total control over the SHEEPEEEL. Or maybe the Federal Reserve conveniently arranged to generat and use the CORONA virus as an excuse for an already over bloated market so that those who lost and will lose their wealth won’t blame them even though they are to blame. Interesting possibilities. Will we ever really know the truth? It will be hard to find the truth tellers in a sea of government and political LIARS.
Gerald Celente is correct when he states that there is no more fight left in Americans to stand up for truth and justice. They just go along to get along. I wonder if they will wake up in the forth coming depression when they come to know severe deprivation and extreme poverty?
The politicians seem to think that we, the people work for them. Once in a while I hear someone bravely correct that false notion and state the truth, i.e., the politicians work for us, the people. These politicians need an attitude adjustment so that they realize ‘whose the BOSS.’
GOOGLE Dr. Francis Boyle who is an expert on biological viruses. The big question is whether one of the biological weapons labs created this virus and somehow it was sent to a weapons lab in China who in turn screwed up. He has 3 PhD’s and knows a “little bit” about viruses. I am beginning to wonder if all of the past viruses were lab generated in these ‘weaponized virus labs.’ None of these labs are legally permitted to exist as I understand it. There should be a worldwide ban on BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS LABORATORIES THAT ILLEGALLY GENERATE WEAPONIZED VIRUSES. When will the sheepeeel stand up for TRUTH, JUSTICE AND WHAT WAS ONCE THE AMERICAN WAY. Our Grandfathers would have punched these A-Holes in the nose for screwing around with this crap. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO DAMN LATE!

Dave – many and perhaps most have an image of God not according to know;edge, but feeling and are self-deceived. The only peace the world will ever know will come from Christ on their day of salvation or when he sets up the 1000 year reign. Many are on the broad road of religion professing “Lord, Lord”.
Why call Me Lord, Lord and do not the things I say?
You call Me the Way and walk Me not!
You call Me the Life and live Me not!
You call Me Master and obey Me not!
You call Me Truth and believe Me not!
You call Me Lord and serve Me not!
If I condemn you blame Me not.
Geoffrey O’Hara——
Not every one that saith unto me Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many shall come to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? And in Thy name cast out devils? and in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I NEVER KNEW YOU; DEPART FROM ME YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.

I am retired now, just living on Social Security retirement. But, I heard tonight on ITM Trading Lynette Zang that the US gov’t will send at least a one-time “helicopter money drop”, to all adults, 18+yo citizens, check of approximately $1,000. Should be in about 2 weeks. Lynette said, it’s not clear if this is one-time, periodically, or becomes permanent. Fed can create from nowhere is much as they want, so are comes the helicopter money, so you don’t riot, this year, maybe in 2021,or later. Massive hyperinflation to destroy the US dollar, so if the NYSE does up in a few years its level could be in the trillions, which might buy you a cup of coffee. So, I’m using my “helicopter money” to buy emergency food processing equipment and the food to dehydrate, or whatever. I could not find ANY for sale on the internet, “SOLD OUT”!!!

Today while driving I saw a mass transit bus pull over to let off a passenger. I thought how strange that the same govt. that is touting social distancing and forcing business to close in the name of saving lives believes that it’s O.K. to drive large groups of people in a closely confined space around town. Then I thought of GC who told me that the virus hype is not about saving lives its about destroying wealth and financially crippling people. Ok I thought now the bus makes perfect sense. Not to mention that those riding the bus need transportation to reach the hospitals where they work. If govt. was thoroughly concerned about social distancing they would pay for people to use a taxi service in lieu of mass transit. Virus scare amounts to another 911 with respect to freedom and privacy. Creates an excuse to invoke martial law. GC you may not always be right but your never totally wrong☺

What China may feel is the cause of the pandemic is laid out nicely in the Pepe Escobar article featured on the Saker site (“China Locked in Hybrid War with US”). On August 5, 2019 Fort Detrick was closed for contamination fears. Recall that this military bioweapons lab was named the origin of the anthrax post office mailing attacks soon after 9/11. On October 14, 2019 the Bill Gates sponsored “Event 201”, which took place, warning of the need for vaccines for protect predicted pandemic(s). Gates recently resigned the Microsoft Board of Directors after starting that company. October 18 through October 27th: the China sponsored friendly military games, in which around 300 US military took part called the Wuhan Military Games (recall our President labels the virus the “Wuhan Virus”). These games are followed by the outbreak of COVID-19 in China around mid-November. All a coincidence? With Obama’s “Pivot to China” during his administration attempting to lock out China from a pan-asian trade agreement?, and, to “Make America Great Again” soon to follow during the Trump administration, aiming for the re-industrialization of the United States, and the stifling of the “threat” of China possibly becoming the largest economy in the world? Coincidence, or plan?

I am in Australia and truly revolted by the despicable leadership here in the land of Downunder. Our Prime Minister, Scott Morrison just didn’t get it when he went on holiday with the wife and kids to Hawaii at Christmas while Australia exploded in the worst bushfires in history. And now this morning, he had the gall to call frightened and terrified citizens un-Australian as they flood the supermarkets with the empty shelves, trying to buy food, toilet paper and whatever else is left. They are trying to convince us that we are in mortal danger from Corona Virus despite the obviously manipulated numbers. People returning from overseas and very unwell (since recovered) have been refused requests (even by their doctors) to be tested for the virus. It is patently obvious that this is the black swan and the excuse used to blame the Greatest Depression as Gerald Celeste has been warning the world about for months. God bless you Gerald and may God truly bless the millions, if not billions who will probably perish before this is over

People can prepare their natural bodies for this in two ways: 1/ boost ones immune system with zinc, Vit C/D and calcium + maintain low blood sugar and high iron levels. 2/ obtain a small stock of anti-viral herbs/oils such as St John’s Wort, primrose oil and/or flax seed oil. There are also plenty of other anti-viral and immune boosting naturopathic treatments available. Preparing ones body to best defend itself against this virus should mitigate the worst of its symptoms, aid a faster recovery and, in worst case scenarios, prevent death.

March 18, 2020 roksteady
As Gerald says, what the hell are people supposed to do to make ends meet. Does anyone think your mortgage, car payment, school loans, groceries and utilities are going to be helped by a one time $1000 to last for 3 $%%# months or MORE??? If people are into basic income, then it’s $1000 PER PERSON/MONTH. Are the banks going to let you off the hook for those loans? HELL NO!
The FED and Treasury have been running trillions off the presses to save hedge funds, banks, corporations like Boeing which blew all their zero interest loans doing stock buybacks…all that money vaporized. SO if I say 38,000,000,000 a $1000shot in bailout money dedicated to bail out every family in the US, that is cheap! I mean we blew 4 bill a month ins the middle east-10s trillions of dollars in repo,QE,Plunge protection team, TARP,TAFF, POOP for Wall Street crooks.

I agree with the world economy being in a dire state and centrals banks and reckless leaders having brought us to this point, but I don’t think the Covid-19 outbreak can be handled any other way except sending everyone home. Letting it run unchecked would simply overwhelm health care services of any country even at a low mortality rate. That’s what happened in Italy, in China they even built new hospitals to cope. These infections spread exponentially – they start slowly, but gain momentum quickly. There might also be a case that this worldwide outbreak could have been prevented had the Chinese government reacted earlier.
Disasters like Covid-19 happen, but this one gets amplified by decades of economic mismanagement that have come before and have been well documented in the Trends Journal.

I’m a Naturopthic doctor in the United States. I shouldn’t be, but am shocked to see the natural health field jump on to the hysteria bandwagon along with everyone else.
Naturopathic publications sending me links to experts who go off about how dangerous this thing in because of some technobabble mechanism of action, then a few minutes later say “our understanding of this is just in its infancy.”
Well, my business as a naturopathic doctor is for the time being – gone. And once this hysteria settles down, who knows how long it’ll take to get things back to where they were. People are telling to restructure things and do “tele-medicine.” Um… some things don’t work that way. I do a lot of hands on work.
And what do we know about this “pandemic”
Is the testing accurate?
Is it really the cause of death in the 112 deaths in US?
Shouldn’t it be obvious to this politicians that the financial Armageddon that have brought down on us will kill many, many more times people?
This is just about the only place I can find rational people.

Real and lasting Hope is ONLY found in Jesus.
In the beginning the Word already existed.
The Word was with God,and the Word was God.He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.
The Word gave life to everything that was created,a and his life brought light to everyone.
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.
—————————————————————————————————
Come, gather together, and draw near, you fugitives from the nations.
Ignorant are those who carry idols of wood and pray to a god that cannot save.
Speak up and present your case—yes, let them take counsel together.
Who foretold this long ago?
Who announced it from ancient times?
Was it not I, the LORD?
——————————————————————————————-
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
There is no other God but Me,
a righteous God and Savior;
there is none but Me.

what if you are 70 just retired and have a few health issues. have 3 kids who are lets say about 30-40 . they have their own kids from 0-5. you worked your whole life and not being careful with this virus “can” wipe you out. with a possible incubation period double or triple of swine flu. this can spread quickly. we know china is not reporting true numbers. and testing is no where near enough.
If I was this 70 year old person. Id be terrified, wouldn’t you?
a death is a death. atleast die on your own time. not from this.

They must figure a 30% loss is what they needed OR the scientists are working independently.
From France Covid 19 clinical Trial
“The study found that after six days of treatment, 70 percent of patients administered hydroxychloroquine were clear of the virus, ”
“Azithromycin boosted the effect of hydroxychloroquine, according to the study. After six days of treatment, all patients treated with the drug combination “were virologically cured,” compared to 57.1 percent of patients treated with hydroxycholorquine by itself.”

ALLERGY MANIA & LAWSUITS IN 2010 FORCE AIRLINES TO DISCONTINUE FREE PEANUT SNACKS
One passenger got a acute allergic reaction to cocktail peanuts served-up onboard a United Airlines flight. She could not wait to get back home and call her lawyer to sue for “damages”. Another stupid jury of idiots felt sorry for her and she won a big jury award. In response, all the domestic airlines took notice and cut the peanuts from the menu. Pretzels were a handy substitute (free snack), at least as far as I know. Spread the misery around.
Common Sense: Apply extreme measures upon all airline passengers for all time. Proportionality. So, Corona Virus “Pandemic” is just the latest manifestation of “do gooders” with zero tolerance for germs and viruses. ( Do they reside in a “Clean Room”? Do they have a hospital-grade HEPA filter on their HVAC unit at home?). Bet Not. Let’s pass a law ( Local building code requirement) that requires ALL “McMansions” worth over $3 Million to have HEPA filters, just because….we can. “What’s good for the goose is good for gander” Fight back, social warriors.

So this is all it took to overthrow the U.S. Constitution? What an abomination! Trump and the governors have all committed treason and violated their oath declaring this an emergency based on lies. The moment I heard this hypocrite was going to borrow money from we the taxpayers to send us a pittance of what they’re giving out to their cronies is offensive. As a Cuban American, my worst nightmares have come true. I was born a slave to the Castro family, and by the grace of God I was emancipated as a child and was able to live in the Golden Age of freedom in the U.S. The moment I heard the government is going to give us money borrowed from ourselves, it reminded me of the Cuban Libreta, where the government issues you free food that will get you by for part of the month; you need to figure out the rest how to feed your family. We are now in a dark age. We’ve seen this movie before.

see Pepe Escobar’s full article: https://thesaker.is/china-locked-in-hybrid-war-with-us/
and pay attention to paragraphs 7,8,9 (copied in below) (You can click on Event 201 and see that the whole rehearsal is exactly what is playing out today). Co-incidence? Not in my estimation…
Adding all that to the fact that coronavirus genome variations in Iran and Italy were sequenced and it was revealed they do not belong to the variety that infected Wuhan, Chinese media are now openly asking questions and drawing a connection with the shutting down in August last year of the “unsafe” military bioweapon lab at Fort Detrick, the Military Games, and the Wuhan epidemic. Some of these questions had been asked – with no response – inside the US itself.
Extra questions linger about the opaque Event 201 in New York on October 18, 2019: a rehearsal for a worldwide pandemic caused by a deadly virus – which happened to be coronavirus. This magnificent coincidence happened one month before the outbreak in Wuhan.
Event 201 was sponsored by Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the World Economic Forum (WEF), the CIA, Bloomberg, John Hopkins Foundation and the UN. The World Military Games opened in Wuhan on the exact same day.

It is contrived panic to limit freedom, and destroy what is left of the middle/working class and small businesses.

Funny the mayor of Boston said Monday that all the construction in the city is suspended, then the next day said “essential” projects could continue. I think he had a visit from one of his envelope delivery people.
I and most other self employed people are still working and a lot of our customers do not believe this corona scare is real. Although I have received comments from friends who up until now I thought were clear thinking, telling me to stay home and obey.
I have a family to support and will continue to work until the national guard close the roads. I think that may be a possibility since there are a lot of cops everywhere now.
You know what is weird, I don’t know anyone that knows of someone with the virus. I live south of Boston and everyone knows if you go for a walk in the woods, afterwards check for tics. Everyone knows someone or a few people with Lyme disease which is a cornucopia of the worst ailments for life. Corona will come and go.
So there has to be a reason to get people off the streets, either the government is planting stuff or moving things in or out.

What the world’s propaganda ministries are all saying with one united voice is that authoritarianism is the cure for the Coronavirus. Although throughout China’s thousands of years of history, diseases have come and gone, this one is going only because of authoritarianism. It wouldn’t leave on it’s own. With no scientific facts to back that up. Once the real damage is done to the population of the world, we’re going to need to have trials for these so-called leaders for their crimes against humanity. But what court would try them?

FINANCIAL SYSTEM HAVING A “HEART ATTACK” ??
Talk about an exploding coil, or shall I call it a Imploding cycle? Last August, one upper molar was extracted and a titanium implant installed into the bone. Seems a rare occurrence : The molar ( 6- year old molar ) just died or was being “absorbed”. Odd.
Now odd market behavior is being “painfully” experienced. I noticed high volatility in treasury bonds, with the10-year Treasury moving fast from .5% to 1.4% in only 5 hours. This Treasury volatility is rare, as well. My perception is the volatility in Treasuries is influencing other investment classes and stocks. An unstable core of the financial system is
now spilling-over into the rest of the stock and bond markets around the world. Our banking and financial system is in “convulsions”. Remember, one of the co-indicators of a heart event is when the digestive system suddenly convulses ( you vomit). It can become a medical emergency and require a trip to the M.D. or hospital ER ( then ICU). It happens.

March 19, 2020 Craig Bradley
COMPRESSED ECONOMIC, FINANCIAL AND MARKET CYCLES AT ONCE ?
AGG Bond ETF is not going down near as much as ‘Investment Grade’ Corporate Bond ETF’s in this cycle, as of yesterday. The current “hiding” places with the least risk and volatility in this market cycle are principally Treasury Money Markets ( 47-day average duration) and cash in the bank, of course. TLT has been a good trade but its advantages are now being gradually reduced each day the NAV drops as money is moving to short term Treasury debt or cash. All govt. and Corporate bonds are experiencing equity-like volatility in this market and economic cycle.
Recently, even gold has been an asset of last resort to sold to raise cash, as have Corporate Investment Grade Bonds. However, gold may rocket-up later in the cycle, as it did in 2008-2011, along with inflation. In this FED interest rate cycle, no asset class has benefited from an interest rate cut, as fear and default risks remain the main investor concern.
Only cash and cash equivalents or cash surrogates have been spared the knife. As other assets ( all classes ) continue to suffer capital losses and now, unemployment benefit claims are already beginning to rise. Later-on in this cycle, inflation will increase but from low levels, as will commodities including oil (energy). Things are moving fast. If FED stimulus actions and Fiscal responses ( spending and bail-outs) fail to stem the tide, then we may be talking about a DEPRESSION NEXT YEAR, not just a recession.
If so, stocks may not regain their former highs for years to come. I expect the FED to bring-out Mario Draggi’s “Bazooka” ( Amend the FED Reserve Act to permit buying stock indexes, ETF’s, Corporate Bonds, and Municipal Bonds, as well). Such a policy change may shore-up the major Institutional buyers of bonds of all kinds: Public Employee Pension Funds. Otherwise, these pension funds, already weakened and underfunded, may eventually fail and require a dedicated Federal bailout of their own at far higher taxpayer costs. It could go either way, depending on politics and the markets.

March 19, 2020 Craig Bradley
I can’t help but see this crisis as a continuation of the globalist Democratic Party’s non-stop strategy (since even DURING the Republican Presidential nominating process 2016) of attempting to destroy ‘populist’ and nationalist Trump by any means. Recall Nancy Pelosi stating after the failed impeachment process that the Democrats would get Trump out one way, or another. Then a month later we see this media-fueled panic. Could this be all a continuation of the globalist scheme to control the entire planet, writing the rules which make the Western nations the ‘brains’ and primary beneficiaries of the globalist order, and non-poodle nations the cheap labor and second-class citizens of the world, inevitably leading to the need to full totalitarian rule? Look at the destroyed nations in northern Africa and west Asia. Even in places like Chile and Venezuela. And receiving economic strangulation if they show the least resistance to globalist ‘marching orders’. It has been long established that the western mass media are fully on-board with the globalist agenda, meaning they are committed to a war of words on those looking to strengthen their nations – at the expense of globalist dreams of world homogenization. And, culture. What have the globalists done to things like the movie industry, using it to advance globalist viewpoints? This goes on and on. This all smells of an induced mass psychosis of the entire world population. We first? Who precisely are “we”?

FED LOWERS BANK CASH RESERVE REQUIREMENT TO ZERO
https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20200315b.htm
We are living in Odd Times indeed and also as far as the current global financial system construct, “borrowed” time, as well. Drastic changes are coming down the pike.
In addition, many local small businesses won’t accept cash due to the corona virus pandemic. Moreover, in California, most smaller stores only allow two people to enter the premise at any given time (social distancing). We are frightened and have decided to obey Caesar unconditionally. We just gave-up our Liberties without objections and without any real benefit. We threw our Constitution and Bill of Rights Away as if it were a gym towel.
What happens if banks do not want to lend money regardless and if consumers and small businesses don’t want to borrow, even at zero interest rates? Its not the rates, its the collapse of public confidence in our financial system and in government everywhere, most generally. This also looks like the preconditions for a strong multi-year gold rally after this financial storm eventually passes in a year or two. It may happen when you read that unemployment numbers have already spiked up to say 6% later this year or early in 2021. Its going to be very close for President Trump to beat the yet unnamed Democrat Dream Team: Hillary Clinton and Running-Mate, Senator Mitt Romney of Utah. It may happen yet. Odd Times.

I am skeptical. I’m also an MD. But, when information is questionable, I’d err on the side of caution. I am living with my 95-year-old mother in law. I’m self quarantined because I don’t want to pass anything along to her. If I were a 70-year-old person, I would not be terrified. I’d be home. I would take my immune system supporting supplements (vitamin D, Quercetin, elderberry, etc.), get plenty of sleep, eat healthily, avoid sugar and keep my stress/anxiety down. Stress negatively impacts the immune system!

Every hour that passes now, the co-conspirators in the coup against the Constitution seem to get bolder and bolder. Every day they test the limit of their illegal actions. We are getting very close to the point where everyone who has taken an oath to defend the Constitution is going to be called on to do so. The soldiers and law enforcement of this country are going to need to think about what their family members who fought and died and sacrificed to defend the Constitution would think at this moment. Where will you stand when push comes to shove? Will you stand with truth and the Holy Spirit, or the father of lies and these politicians?

I can’t help but trace all this madness back to the repeal of Glass-Steagall, which was basically a separation between the investment activities of banks from the use of customer deposits for investment purposes, with restraints on banks securities activities. This was accomplished by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and condoning the illegal acts of Citibank, at the time. In other words, the economy instantly became a government-sponsored gambling operation after the repeal of the act under the threat of the impeachment of Bill Clinton. Mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, further financial rackets based on fantasy capital, on and on. And, when the US federal government had a perfect opportunity to end the out-of- control financialization of the US economy, only the most mild actions were taken such as Dodd-Frank, which were easily undermined by corporate lawyers. Penalties to the investment institutions were outrageously minimal. Millions were foreclosed on, with only a “cost of doing business” imposed on the lenders. The full financialization of the economy was deemed necessary and permanent, as we lost half our industry to Asia as corporate powers sought to exploit low wage foreign labor for profit, with the finishing touch being the massive corporate stock buy-bucks in the last few years, rather than investment in the US economy itself, as intended by Trump and MAGA. Deep inside, all of us in the know knew that eventually all the geniuses of the short-term ‘kick the can’ mentality would lead us to what we see today (a ‘reckoning’). Well, D-Day has arrived, with this present tactic of blaming a virus for our downfall (with the people conditioned to believe it and the intended panic Gerald points out as being a control mechanism). The difference between 1987 or 2000 or 2009 and now is that our population has been strongly encouraged to take on huge amounts of debts – just like our governments – and we now see our assets dwindling and our debts growing – essential deflation and personal bankruptcy, by both corporation and the population at large. Dreams of global domination and control have turned into nightmares. It is now wake-up time for our federal government to end the war for a global Western-controlled economy, and to work for the rebuilding of America – it’s industry, a return to true capitalism, and a return to a true patriotic spirit of “we are all in this together” big and small. And, more importantly, with making foreign nations our friends, and not our enemies. A world world-wide “we’re all in this together”. The US, EU, China, Russia working together to build a just and prosperous world. The spirit generated alone could well get us out of this doomed march. This is wake-up time.

Old Saying About the Roman Empire: “Its fatal to flee and futile to run”. So, if you have not already relocated, its probably too late now. Real Estate may turn illiquid with NO BIDS, even with 30-year home mortgages as low as 3%. If people do not have confidence in the future, they withdraw and hoard cash. They sure do not spend and won’t borrow either. Now, simply staying at home is respectable. High time too.

2. Over 80% are mild cases
3. Sars was contained even with a spread rate of 2+.
4. Government get control over population.
5. We obey and think their decisions are roght.
6 . Senators and big boys sell off stock(insider trading)
7. Crash markets and blame it on covid 19
8. Lay off millions due to covid-19

Recall the non-stop efforts of the Democratic Party and intelligence agencies to depose President Trump, and the lengths they went to to do this from before his inauguration. Undeniable. Now, Democratic party aligned Politico has released an article “Before Trump’s Inauguration, a Warning: The Worst Influenza Panic since 1918”, which essentially ‘papers over’ this strange meeting held 7 days before the Trump inauguration (posted March 16th). Recall again the efforts to destroy the Trump presidency was already in motion. Note also that indictments from the subterfuge of the Democrats and intelligence agencies are expected shortly, and the threats issued by Charles Schumer that the intelligence agencies can get back at Trump “six ways from Sunday”. Also, it seems clear that President Obama was involved in these efforts right from the get-go, and that the Democrats basically paralyzed the Federal Government for 2-plus years with their proven-to-be BS impeachment efforts. Now, the election in which they want obviously to unseat Trump. And, further back… Bill Clinton’s “New Democrat” party eliminating the superficial priority of working for the common man and turning to Wall Street, and the introduction of turbo-financialization to the economy, with ineffective remedial efforts post-2009 by the Obama Administration. And the “repo market” shenanigans beginning in August after economic normalization failed and “not-QE” begun. And martial law now in New York and California (60 million people), and the troops coming back from the Defender 2020 exercises in Europe. For clarity on my views, I consider President Trump a murderer for the premeditated killing of Iranian general Soleimani. That is his prerogative due to the accepted policy of allowing the President to set American foreign policy, which is seems needlessly provocative in regards to Iran, China, Russia. Put this all together, with revelations about Bill Gates’ Event 201, followed by the Wuhan Military Games in which 300 US military participated, followed a the outbreak of COVID-19 a few weeks later in the same city. And a strong epidemic of COVID-19 in Italy, the only European country to participate in China’s Belt and Road strategy. Could it all be an elaborate exercise to blame others for the failure of our non-market propped-up, and non-capitalist economy which can no longer “kick the can” down the road, and a show of absolute desperation by the forces aligned against Trump who are now calling for the cable networks to turn off Presidential Briefings on the crisis situation? No matter which side prevails in the federal government we return to the Abraham Lincoln’s phrase: “A house divided against itself cannot stand”.

GROWING MANIFESTATIONS OF GLOBAL CONFLICTS @ HOME & ABROAD
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/disease/is-this-a-plot-to-cover-up-collapse-of-keynesian-economics/
Gold bugs too often forget about passe’ economic theories or practices such as the “quantity theory of money” or the obsolete practice of juicing markets or national economies with cyclical interest rate reductions. Keynesian Economics is now Kaput. That old central bank practice stops working as you get close to the zero-percent level. Just look at Japan since the early nineties to see where we are probably going. Welcome to the New Era of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) where you (think) you can print all the money you want just because “you owe it to yourself”. Humans are quite skilled at self-deception and group-think ( a.k.a. Not Thinking Independently! )
This nice sounding, socialist approach, won’t work for long in a world of floating currency levels. They float up and down for a good reason(s): changing financial fortunes. We could some day find ourselves with a very weak currency (dollar) and sky high inflation, which according to Publisher Sam Zell would reduce our standard of living by about -30% immediately. Moreover, we would probably would not bounce-back for generations. This happened in the 1930’s and was accompanied by a World War (II).
So, if similar global economic conditions reoccur ( Great Depression) then odds are, as Gerald Celente previously wrote, we should expect a new World War (III) eventually ( somewhere during the 2030’s ?) . Whether war has actually begun or not is really not near as important as the staging and context prior to an all-out World War ( 1930-1941). Regardless, the world is headed for an appointment with destiny.

What you overlook, Mr Celente, is that the countries that have exerted the greatest amount of control over the mobility of their populations that we know, China, S.Korea, have had the fastest flattening of their infection bell-curves. They are now in recovery. On the contrary, in countries where the mobility, in the form of curfews has been least enforced, Italy, for example, the infection rate has been the highest.
You are probably right about the economic cost of making people stay at home, but the depression was on the way in any case. Its onset has been advanced by COVID, but its cause – you know very well – lies in the foolish and plutocratic policies of our Fed, Treasury, and political leaders since 2008.

PULLING-UP THE CASTLE DRAWBRIDGE
Interestingly, Bank of America just announced in a insert w/ their monthly statements to account holders that they are discontinuing the previous cash withdrawal limits of $400.0/day as of this May. However, total deposits exceeding $ 5,525 in a single day may be subject to a longer hold period. Less than this amount may be available the next business day.
I am not entirely sure what is going-on here. Could be new money is O.K. up to a daily deposit maximum. Perhaps the other bank or financial entity may be untrustworthy. A liquidity shortage in the present context could mean some banks are weakening financially. So, B of A is taking no chances with other peer banks but allowing customers to have their money, as needed. Definitely a growing lack of trust between banking institutions.
This sure looks to me like the beginning of the end of globalism, as we have known it. All sorts of potential business reorganizations will likely be required if companies are going to adapt and survive. Reminds me of the the croupier at a Las Vegas Casino when he shuffles the deck a few times. The corona virus is in-effect similar to a shuffling of the deck. Nothing will be exactly the same afterwards, even if its the same game as before.
By the way, ” Secure Retreat” author and secure building consultant, Joel Skousen, is spot-on in his weekly commentary on the reasons why governments are doing this around the world and what it may indicate:
http://www.joelskousen.com/
“But what is really driving this extreme public and government response, needlessly shutting-down parts of the economy, is a combination of 1) hyped-up danger claims from the WHO and the CDC (both puppets of Big Pharma), 2) Gutless (Cowardly) business and political leadership that is fearful of being held responsible if things go really bad and 3) Certain conspiratorial aspects of the establishment who want to accustom or condition the people to government lock-downs and increased controls”.

I keep studying this thing…all of the financial things that are happening. This is what happened with the flu this year in the US.
The CDC estimates that so far this season there have been at least 23,000 deaths from flu, 38 million flu illnesses, and 390,000 hospitalizations.
So far the Corona Virus has 24,000 cases…not 38 Million….and 285 deaths. And the truth about Italy is that they already had 30,000 die this year from the flu and the flu season isn’t over. So please explain to me how all the hospitals are out of masks and stuff…was it because they used them on the 390,000 people who had the flu? Something is not right here with the numbers.
I don’t know what the End Game is here….but I can assure you we are all up shit creek and there is not enough toilet paper on the planet to save us.

You know, GC, what Cuomo said could be used as a confession one day when he’s put on trial for crimes against humanity after the damage the he and my governor, Gavin Loathesome, have done to the people of this country. The damage that has been done to the economy here in California is staggering. Back in August, around the time the markets were starting to melt down, and the Fed starting pouring money into the repo market, our personal investing hit a low. Trump has been a catastrophe for our companies and for our options trading. So my wife and I began to do Uber Eats part time. When the market is untradeable we can turn on the app and go out, or do it on the weekends. I love everything about the gig job except the compensation (but that’s another issue). For months we have been delivering all over the city, thousands of miles, and what we saw today is an economic disaster, the likes of which has never been seen in our lifetimes. The amount of places that are closed, with staff that we know are now unemployed, is staggering. The unemployment number is going to be in the multimillions when this comes out next week. We did not see a single business that has not been affected by this man-made disaster. The other thing we noticed was that the hospitals were completely empty, just like all the businesses. Where are all the sick people that are supposedly overwhelming the system with the Coronavirus? And this same system has the nerve to demand government bailouts? As you said the other night, this is going to lead to mass casualties.

One of my all-time favorite books is: Innumeracy: Mathematical illiteracy and it’s Consequences by John Allen Paulos.
There is a huge difference between real numbers and relative (Statistics) numbers and infinite ways to manipulate relative numbers to influence or distort reality.
Gerald has correctly and repeatedly pointed out how irresponsible the media and government has been in throwing out numbers without supporting data and context. Many scientists have criticized the same recklessness with numbers. Here is just one example:
“Stanford’s John P.A. Ioannidis — co-director of the university’s Meta-Research Innovation Center and professor of medicine, biomedical data science, statistics, and epidemiology and population health — suggests that the response to the coronavirus pandemic may be “a fiasco in the making” because we are making seismic decisions based on “utterly unreliable” data.”

ONE OF THE LEGS HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE BAR STOOL
The single biggest buyers of U.S. Equities have been the corporations themselves. In fact, maybe the only large buyer of stocks in the past 3 years. Sure not “mom and pop” retail investors, who are hunkering-down for a long “Winter. In addition, some foreign buyers and some retirement plan purchases, as well. However, the biggest buyer has left the “casino” with his chips. There goes your “liquidity”. Maybe this is why volatility is so high, with a 70 reading on the VIX?
Removal of the Corporate Tax Breaks for stock purchases is probably going to further reduce demand and result in additional stock market declines, especially with the largest companies in the large domestic stock indices. Do we have a competency problem in Congress?? ( Obviously they must know, that is probably a reason why Nancy Pelosi and other POLS sold their shares at the top before the Emergency Declaration by President Trump. Insiders have a big advantage over the public, as always.
Nobody is protesting this Abuse by Congress because our corruption problem is now off-the-charts. The same causal agent (corruption) was key to the Fall of Rome, by the way. History repeating.

Update from Banker Occupied California:
We went out again today throughout the city doing Uber Eats deliveries; the restaurants are in worse shape than ever. The ones that are still open have reduced their staff to a skeleton crew. We also noticed many restaurants that make their margin on serving alcohol are doing to-go only, and are not making a profit at all. We paid particular attention today again to the hospitals, and like businesses there seems to be very few people there. There are no lines of any kind; the medical system is not buckling under the virus. This is a weapon of mass deception that in the end will wind up with mass casualties for reasons other than a flu.
Let’s update the surging cases and death toll around the world by percentage of population:
World cases: 311,000
% of world population afflicted: 0.00004%
World deaths: 13,407
% of world population dead: 0.000002%
U.S. cases: 26,747
% of U.S. population afflicted: 0.00008%
U.S. deaths: 340
% of U.S. population dead: 0.000001%
Los Angeles County cases: 409
% of LA County afflicted: 0.00003%
LA County deaths: 5
% of LA County dead: 0.0000003%
These statistics come from NBC, one of the propaganda ministries of the attempted coup against our Constitution, people, and way of life. I saw people today throughout the city with genuine fear on their face that maybe they would be next. This is the very definition of terrorism.

First, yes I am a real (MD) doctor. I would like to raise an issue that concern me.
There is much talk about the incubation period of 14-28 days, basically up to a month. Incubation period is the interval of time from exposure to a pathogen until one has symptoms of the infection.
So far it seems the thinking is that infected persons are not able to spread the disease until and while they are symptomatic or at least viremic (have live active virus in their body even though they have no symptoms of infection). This is reasonable as COVID-19 is closely related to influenza. Influenza patients are infectious while or shortly before they are symptomatic and shortly after they are without symptoms.
My point is that the long incubation period does not make an infected person able to infect more people than if the incubation period was shorter. In fact, published papers suggest that COVID-19 has a basic reproduction number (R0) pretty much the same as as influenza. (R0) is an ESTIMATE of how many people an infected person is likely to infect.
I think there is much (intentional) misinformation being spread about this infection. I think that certain entities will use fear and hysteria to usher in all manner of measures that would never be accepted other than in a “national health emergency”. In short, the constitution will be suspended (indefinitely).
May I suggest that you all read Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development published by The Rockefeller Foundation and the Global Business Network in 2010. Pay special attention to Lock Step. It may sound quite familiar.

The whole study is junk science. All this is assumed off of data with heavy selection bias. For all we know, would have had the same testing rates for this in USA if they were running tests a few months ago. Everything is baseless speculation.
Causation does not equal causality, and causality of illness from covid-19 has not even been established.

March 24, 2020 Saul Marcus
We don’t have any data that can used to chart the spread of this. For all we know it’s ubiquitous (corona virus is a common cold virus, it’s all over the place).
What is very likely is the conflation of increasing data from more testing, in more ares, with this thing actually spreading.

The Wuhan BSL-4 lab is also a specially designated World Health Organization (WHO) research lab and Dr. Boyle contends that the WHO knows full well what is occurring.“

So finally the doomsayers like George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, David Icke, Dean Henderson and others who have been warning us or giving us hints about the totalitarian agenda of the elite are all proven right. How will the people who are allowing themselves to be cowed by this Corona virus hoax, just like they prostrated themselves to the mind boggling, physics laws defiant 9/11 story, react to what David Icke calls “ the totalitarian tip toe” ? By fighting over toilet paper at supermarkets. Now big brother will be all over us watching our every move and telling us what we can and what we cannot do. The puppets of the elites, so called presidents and prime Ministers, will duly oblige by playing on people’s fears by telling the sheeple that there are trade offs between liberty and security.

It is imperative after the dust settles down to investigate and designate a tribunal where all powers that are party to developing biological warfare germs be tried and where China and its detractors can present their arguments about who is to blame for the spread of the Corona virus.
With a treaty signed in 1989 that prohibits the research and development of such bio-warfare weapons, the population of the world is entitled to know who is the real culprit. Francis Boyle who was responsible for this treaty named “ the Biological Weapons Anti Terrorism Act” alleged that the origin of the virus is traced to the University of North Carolina which sold the virus to the Wuhan lab where the Chinese were making research either on a vaccine or on making it more potent, whereas the Chinese government claims that the virus started in America and moved to China through the travelling of the American army to Wuhan’s military strength games. Each implicated party should present its defence.

Studies show one cannot lose weight with exercise alone. It is all about the diet. It is best to limit all carbs, ditch the wheat and there is no such thing as “healthy whole grains”. The g, AMA, ADA, AHA, diet recommendations are totally wrong and caused this obesity epidemic and its resultant chronic diseases. Too many carbs cause hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance which are the root cause of these chronic diseases including hypertension, T2D, coronary artery disease, obesity to name a few. Big Pharma has tremendously benefitted from all this erroneous advice.

My understanding is that several Chinese scientists who were invited to work in a bio lab in Canada stole the virus and brought it to the Wuhan Bio Lab. The Royal Mounted Police investigated the crime and expelled these Chinese scientists from Canada. Supposedly the virus was sent from the Netherlands to this Canadian Lab. Another story is that a military lab in Fort Detrick Maryland produced this virus and sent it to the U. of North Carolina. Why would any country or its military develop a virus unless it was meant to be WEAPONIZED. Does anybody believe we will get to the truth? The only way this nonsense will stop is when the public rises up and protests. But there is little chance of that because the elite who control 90 % of the media (thanks to Bill Clinton and the Dems) constantly and continuously keep the public misinformed and confused via the fake media and government bull****. This continuously process of misinformation and public confusion has been going on for decades. Truth tellers who go public are punished severely or killed. The American public is asleep, confused and lied to every day. The only reason that any factual info gets out is because of a few brave people using the internet and oh how the elites would like to control the internet as did the Chinese government in China.

The “war” has always been on the people – one way or another. It’s a long story, but techno-society has long been manipulated by an ancient power structure, such that society itself is a weapon. It has very much been so especially against the indigenous/low-tech cultures. Probably 100 million were slaughtered bringing Euro technomasturbating “civilization” to this hemisphere. Truly free nations were holocausted to make way for an illusion of freedom based on killing the planet for money and hoarding wealth. Inside the weapon there has been created nothing much different from feudalism. It’s just changed to interest-bearing debt and taxes. Economic slavery sold as freedom.

GC wants to tell folks the inside story that it’s the politicians doing this. But that’s about as true as saying Mafia triggermen tell the bosses who to hit. This is a global Elite operation, which power structure both the puppet-pols and all the official authorities, such as WHO, NIH/CDC, FDA, and the whole alphabet soup of government corruption bow to – whose policy they execute. They bow to their creators/overseers. As do corporations. Triggermen don’t put out the contract, meaning set policy, the global financial Elite do. But we don’t hear much about that around Trendsville. Here, it’s all about the Drama, not the scrip writers.
This is not about money or the virus. It’s about the psychopaths’ wet dream – total global domination and control. Or, it could be just a drill to get all the draconian machinery in place for the big one.
If the people understood and had some solidarity, there would be a global #BustTheLockdown! Failing that, the best thing people could do to resist the tyranny is widespread rejection at the consumer level of all wireless systems and devices, because wireless is the very foundation of the surveillance, tracking, indexing, categorizing human-control system rapidly gestating in the technosphere.

I have read several free and paid reports about cryptos and alt-coins as invesments for the long run (3-10yrs). One of the best reports have been George Gilder´s Moonshoot and Teeka´s 5 coins to millions.
They analyzed over 100 alt-coins, because, alt-coins are startups in the ecosystem with more potential to grow or die. So the risk/reward ratio to invest in 10-20, expecting just 1-2 to shine is a reasonable black swan strategy, if that 1-2 makes all the profits.
Then, I analized those 100 alt-coins mentioned, and filter them.
If someone is interested in more details, about these analysis and what best alt-coins are there, let me know.

In this extremely dark time for my country and my countrymen, I want to remind all of us who took an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, this oath was not taken in front of men, but in front of God. There is no going back on an oath to defend our national covenant with our Creator that freed us.
Let’s take to heart the words of our savior Jesus Christ in Matthew 10:28:
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
P.S. If the Constitution is destroyed, it will be either over our dead bodies or our dead souls.

THE SAD AMERICAN DIET
According to the Hospital dietician, American diet is chronically low in fiber. Fiber is helpful in absorbing the bad cholesterol in your blood, as regular aerobic exercise helps to generate the good cholesterol. Fiber keeps your bowls regular and helps avoid diverticulitis of the large intestine wall, as well. ( tears in the intestine wall ).
Unfortunately, we do not eat enough fresh fruits and vegetables and we eat way too much prepared food of all kinds. The late fitness expert, Jack La Lane lived a fit and healthy life and his motto was: “If God did not make it, do not eat it”. He mostly ate (drank) a juice cocktail of fresh fruits and vegetables mixed in an Osterizer. He lived to be 95 years old before he passed-on. Not bad.

FAT CHANCE @ FOR A DIET
Just try to find any baked goods that are not loaded-up with sugar. Trader Joe’s grocery chain used to carry a healthy fiber cupcake but it did not taste sweet enough and did not sell, so they discontinued it. All or nothing. The new conventional cupcakes are so sickeningly sweet I just can not stand to eat them ( sugary sugar ). The public has bad taste and no discipline. Retailers must give them what they want: Junk Food (cupcakes). Apparently, a poor upbringing and no adult supervision at home.

Umm…digital currency? It’s concerning to say the least. Rapid capital flows via efficient transactions along with low overhead for the banks could be a useful option in finance. However, it should only be an option instead of a principal mechanism in terms of financial activities. Governments would now be able to receive the maximum of income tax revenue form all individuals due to the easy access to financial information. Also, could a weaponized digital financial system be used to curb dissent by blocking all digital transactions. Hacking would always be a serious issue. But the worst thing about this is the fact it’s ever so easier for the Fed and other central banks around the world could now print money by only pressing a few computer keys and the traditional currency printers will no longer be required.

WELCOME TO THE ERA OF MODERN MONETARY THEORY
The just passed $ 2 Trillion Corona Virus Stimulus Act, Phase III by the U.S. Senate heralds-in a new monetary era where we just print to our heart’s delight to fulfill every public need. Problem is there is still no real investment in our aging public infrastructure ( roads, bridges, rails, airports, seaports) but rather, its almost all for public consumption. This is because the rate of economic growth is constrained to about 1.9%/ year for the past 12 years and the ongoing aging of American society. Older people ( sixties and up) just do not consume like they once did in their 40’s and 50’s (peak earning years). Their incomes are down and they just don’t need more things or a bigger house.
There are 78 Million Baby boomers who will be retired and on Medicare and Social Security in ten more years. Half of them already are 65 and on Medicare as it is. These non-discretionary Federal Entitlement Programs are about 2/3 of the annual Federal Budget. In addition, an increasing portion of the annual Federal budget is devoted to paying interest on existing national debt. Just wait some day when interest rates spike-up to 4% and the dollar devalues. Look-out.

For entertainment, watch “ The enemy within“ starring Benedict Cumberbatch It’s a British TV series in 2008, and it is absolutely amazing to see the parallel of what is happening right now. I have no doubt that the ELITES at the very top put their dreams into movies and sure enough this is one that fits to a tee. Think about how much sick pleasure they got watching this. Now, I ask you all—what in the hell do we do now? This film scared us.

The COVID-19 incident worldwide revealed some important solutions. One would be that any biological research facility should never be at a populated atea, especially if the virus being studied are airbone. Instead, they should be located at rural areas so outbreaks could be prevented. Another should be for a worldwide requirement that all viruses being studied must have a strict priority of bringing out a vaccine first and foremost. Also, no modifications nor enhancing bacteria and viruses should ever take place for military purposes. Most of all I personally suspect that if our immune system could be couter-studied with various viruses; then a means to discover a way to improve our immune system to the point to mastering disease and viruses via an ever perfecting immune system for humans. Because immunity is the finest weapon and defense against pandemics.

As was the case with the First Century A.D. Christian community, I expect state prosecution of the Church. This will sort out the wheat from the chaff. The True Believers in Christ will be like the Nazarim were and they were definitely outcasts of both the traditional Jewish Community and later, what became the Catholic Community following the Council of Nicea in A.D. 325.
The influence of the Nazarim was strong but over the centuries, they all but disappeared. They will reappear in the Last Days, as will the prosecution by sovereign states of all believing Christians, as it was in 100 A.D. Some Theologians even believe the Beast of Revelation is really the last Great Empire descended from the Romans: The United States. There is ample evidence to support this view of Bible Prophecy.
The Christian Community needs to plan ahead for difficult times because a digital currency may eventually include a RF dermal implant at some future time to physically track every consumer in the country. I suspect the implementation of the 5-G Wireless Radio Technology will be the cornerstone of this new digital monetary world, as well. 5-G is at least 5 years away from full spectrum implementation. Heck, 3G Networks just got “repurposed”. Therefore, I suggest you plan on digital currency by about 2032 A.D.
I disagree with Mr. Gerald Celente as far his assertion there won’t be a alternative “out the back door” opportunity via barter for those not included in the coming new digital monetary system and who may, for various reasons besides their faith, decide a dermal implant is unnatural and not accept it. The consequence may very well be the exclusion from the consumer economy, that is, being frozen-out of commerce. ( Unable to buy, or sell, or trade). Junk silver coins ( 90% Silver) would be one work-around in a otherwise digital world.
Old U.S. silver quarters and half-dollars would be an informal bridge between the old world order and the coming new financial paradigm, just a mere 10 years away. Gold coins would also have real value and utility but as Mr. Celente correctly states, the government probably will want to confiscate gold and silver specie. ( If they know who has the gold coins or silver coins). They won’t know if you keep it quiet. By planning ahead, you have a fair chance of evading the authorities, at least for a time, as was the case with the Nazarim in the First Century, A.D.

My strategy was to shop in specialty places. I shop at Milano Market, Schaller & Weber, Whole Foods, etc. Then I look for my criteria. Look for any food item that has Non-GMO Verified label and the USDA Organic together. Then reading the ingredients woke me up to the fact that if I can’t read it…put it down. But natural ingredients without any chemicals and pesticides. I also look for Grass Fed, Humaine Certified and Free Roaming. These factors will make a profound difference in anyones life including mine.

What’s a crisis to some is opportunity is to others. Every time a major topic or issue dominates our mainstream media waves…somebody is making money. Somebody has benefited. What’s a loss to some is a gain for others. Just when 9/11 turned this country upside down. Now COVID-19 has shut down businesses, schools, supermakets, etc. However, the greatest benefit will come to those who contributed to the pending Greatest Depression, because the Corona Virus will now be the perfect excuse for our economy tanking. We won’t blame the cheap money and the disasterous purposes of using this cheap money to gamble! We won’t blame the income inequalities, wage stagnation, lack of opportunities, ever growing debt, political corruption, disasterous fiscal, monetary and economic policies. We won’t look toward the central bankers for printing money out of thin air and pumping it into the markets via traders and charging low and likely negative interest rates. Most of all we won’t blame this out of date, irrelevant econonic system we’ve been living under for a very long time due to the fact that we had nothing to say or do with this system’s origin and continuous operation.

March 26, 2020 Philip Zyrski
These government shutdowns rise suspicion. Why has none of these precautions occured during the times when the Bird Flu, Swine Flu, SARS and Ebola manifested? That’s because there’s much more than what meets the eye. The Greatest Depression is coming no matter what. It could’ve arrived late 2020 or early 2021. Now James Bullard is admitng that this pending depression will bring unemployment up to 30%. NOTE: That’s only those who don’t have a job at all. It won’t include reduced hours and days, which many people were paid hourly wages. This is happening while 40% of Americans can’t afford a $400.00 bill without selling a possession. 60% of Americans don’t have $1,000.00 in the bank. This and other critical factors brought the Greatest Depression right on stage, directly in front of us! We now have a front row, center box seat with air conditioning and we will see the full extent of this horror show!

March 26, 2020 Philip Zyrski
After seeing the unprecedented response in part of our governments all over the world, I wonder why such effort was seldom taken place in the past to promote world peace. real economic development that inspires good jobs and capital improvement. I also thought about how such extrodinary precautions were barely taken place as income inequality and wealth concentration favored the 1%. I also think about how such precautions and efforts taking place to rethink our polluted air and water and how to make food add life…not take it away. I’m convinced that such efforts focusing on ending corruption, getting money and influence outside of politics. Ending special interst groups’ lobbying efforts to corrupt politicians. I also believe that employing such efforts to combat COVID-19, to resolve long standing issues that continue to affect the average citizen of not only America, but the rest of the world as well.

Although taking plausible precautions is wise. However, the media that covered everything from 9/11 to Y2K to 2012 to SARS to Ebola to Weapons of Mass Destruction to any other event, took the general public’s conscience to ever greater levels of hysteria than ever before! However, thanks to Gerald Celente and the exeptional team of the Trends Journal, we now understand that this event is likely a distraction from the real terror that has just arrived, which is known to those who read the Trends Journal as the ‘Greatest Depression’ to ever take place. Although mainstream media barely mention this event, it’s important that we all send it off to Facebook and other social media outlets so more and more people could wake up and see the big picture and take the appropriate response without the interfearence of mainstream media hysteria.

GO DIGITAL OR DIE ??
No Digital Currency funding provision in the most current version of the Corona Virus Relief Act now headed to the House of Representatives for Approval and then the final Bill on to President Trump’s Desk for his signature. Just shows when “the people” want support or financial relief, the system is fully capable of moving very fast. Otherwise, the government and Congress usually move at the speed of a turtle, if at all.
Hopefully no digital currency for 5-10 more years. At 65, I would be quite happy to never see a digital only U.S. Dollar. That would be a lock-down of the global financial system and the realization of Orwell’s 1984. It will probably be a new global financial order in that day, as well. No thanks.

Actually, two more facts to help others who can’t help but worry about the COVID-19 disease,
1. Buy a digital thermometer, measure your temperature say, 2nd a day12 hours apart. I did twice so far yesterday afternoon, an average of 3, 99.1 degrees F, this morning at 6 AM EDT. this time although also an average of 3, 98.6 degrees F. So, only a difference of 0.5 degrees F. Also an old glass and mercury will work, not as accurate or fast, but you can still get an OBJECTIVE measurement of body temperature of a possible fever. I say OBJECTIVE because fevers can make you fell SUBJECTIVELY cold or hot. Also a high body temperature could be just a normal seasonal influenzas or cold virus. If your temperature elevates looks for breathing difficulties next, if that occurs as your doctor to recommend a hospital visit. Respiratory Distress is what generally kills with COVID-19.
2. For the near future, a test for Corona SAR-2 antibodies, if you are well and have been well, you were infected but recovered. So, reinfection is extremely rare, and you can go back to work, people with the virus will not reinfect.
So, baring a variant(mutation) of Corona SAR-2 virus you’re safe as long as the antibodies are present in large numbers, years usually and perhaps a lifetime.

March 26, 2020 Alan Altman
And yet again little Andy boy Cuomo shows us how inept and unqualified he is to be a leader of men. Once more, as with the ventilators, he reacts after the fact instead of acting before it as followers and men that lack foresight do. If he didn’t think there was enough funds in the aid package for NY then he should have spoken up before the legislation became law and told his democrat colleagues to cut the pork from their pet-peeve projects. Then maybe there would be more money for the purposes of what the bill was intended. Instead he pisses, moans and stomps his feet as children often do. The rumor is everywhere that the democrats are grooming him to take poor Joe’s place before the election. They should just come out and say it instead of doing it the deviously as is the dumbocrap way.

LIVING IN A DOG’S WORLD
“Social Distancing” is a term coined by our political and elite classes and assigned to the following classes who simply click their heals, follow, and obey without even a whimper. Thus, you can see who is dominant in human society as it is
also in canine society. The Alpha dog approaches the more timid beta dog who summits and rolls-over. Then the beta dog licks the Alpha Dog and a confrontation is thereby avoided in dog world. Similarly, we knuckle-under and accept our fate rather than confront the authorities and take our medicine like a Man in response. No wonder so many are referred to as “Girly Men”.
I like the Clint Eastwood classic Western ” High Plains Drifter” about a fictional pioneer town set in present day Mono Lake near the town of Bridgeport, CA on the Eastern Slope of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. In this classic movie, the town was terrorized by three felons just released from the Yuma Territorial Prison in Yuma, Arizona. Clint Eastwood rode in on his horse from the distant plains through heat wave or convection currents in the hot August Sun.
Clint then offered to assist the townspeople in defending themselves from these armed thugs, but they did not have it in them, neither this time, nor on a previous occasion either. The town midget was the one who had seen it all and remembered how disgracefully the townspeople acted the last time this happened. The next thing Clint Eastwood did was literally and figuratively elevate the midget into a position of prominence, giving him the “Key to the Town” of Lago. Insightful movie then and now as regards human nature, as it often is. ( Today, for example)

Does this remind any one of 9-11? Or, an amplified September 11, 2001? With the powers-to-be needing a justification to “reshape” the Middle East? Or, to reshape the world economy in their favor? The famous “7 countries in 7 years” revealed by Wesley Clark. Or, that the identical strategies (massive bail-outs with virtual currencies) are used just like TARP in the 2009 debacle with bigger pay-offs to the critical mega- sectors. Is “kick the can running out of gas”? Do you need to blame something other than your own political and economic ineptitude? What do you do to deflect from your responsibility in constructing an ultimate financial disaster, while also teaching the ‘populists’, and austerity plagued populations, just who is in charge? You want an alternative – chaos? Get on board, resistance. We are your only hope, they imply. As Orwell’s 1984 and Huxley’s Brave New World are put into practice (…”we have always been at war with Oceania”, Soma, etc.), you are seeing the new American spirit presented by opportunistic charlatans to our discredit. How big will our quickly-spent bailout check be? And, when will we get em’? As our dollar is further debased, and our hot-shot politicians ‘double-down’ and ‘triple-down’, yet again? Never blame those responsible – yes?

Corporate credit has been an issue since the Financial Crisis and came to head at the end of 2018 (my understanding is, it was the reason for the Powell Pivot). I’m betting the reason for this is, it will make it easier (and be the excuse) for the Gov’t to nationalize these companies similar to what they did to AIG & GM during the Great Recession (only this time they will not exit).

You know, GC, forget negative interest rates, right now the biggest problem in the country is we have slipped into negative IQ points. People have lost their ability to think with the logical side of the brain. If I were to mention the friends who have lost jobs in the last few days, the list would be too long to post. We’re descending into what can only be described as national socialism, or communism. I think of the families that I grew up with, and their experiences. One of my friend’s parents survived the Nazi death camps. They had the tattoos from it. I also knew a Ukrainian family who survived the Ukrainian famine. Are their descendants not aware of what they went through? When central planning came to Russia, the people starved. When it came to China, the people starved. So how is there supposed to be any other outcome in the U.S. but starvation? At this time, if you are a Christian and you belong to a group and that group is not standing with the Constitution, you need to leave that group and start reading the Bible. Only a modern day Reformation that leads to a modern day Renaissance will prevent us from descending back into the Dark Ages.

Hey Gerald, I’m confused. I was taught to believe the more money you create, the value of the money goes down. I reverse the value of gold increases. The fed just created 2.2 trillion dollars, that the US or the entire world will never pay back. Why did gold go down today? I know that the stock market will go 100,000, but if there’s no value to the currency, what’s the point?

I wonder if the teams will be China, Iran, North Korea, and others to be named- against team USA, and its idiot allies: Britain, France, Italy, etc. Israel will probably sit this out as they always do (and will agitate it for gain). Not sure how Russia will play, but Putin is no fool, he’ll probably gain from whatever side he chooses, maybe even sit it out, and gain when the nuclear dust clears?

THE AMERICAN DILEMMA
The American Dream has now devolved into a nightmare of sorts. Suddenly, you have lost your freedoms (to associate, to assemble, to freely consume, to run your business, to operate according to the law, to defend yourself, again, according to your State’s Revised Statutes, to Work and earn a living.). Suddenly, the elites and their political lackeys (cowards) have ordered a new world paradigm in a majority of individual States. Local jurisdictions have little choice but to follow-along.
Only a relative few, mostly rural states, have not yet gone along with this power grab by the government. Among them, Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, (Northern Great Plains States) Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi (Deep South). At least over half of the states have just carbon-copied California and New York. These are the States that have not caved-in to “peer pressure” to deny Liberties expressly stated in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Most other Western States have succomed, such as Calif. Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and recently, Colorado (coincidentally the states that supported Joe Biden and Barack Obama). Thus, only when the “chips are down” do we really find-out who has been drinking the Kool-Aid. The “essential business” restrictions are said to only be “temporary”. Well, we will have to see about that.

When global growth stops, the globalist system stops. Recall that around August last year Federal Reserve plans to return to a ‘normalized’ economy ended with “non-QE 4” and the “repo” injections. Look back further to the JFK assassination, when the psychopaths in pursuit of global power saw how easy it was to blame that on a lone gunman, who was mysteriously killed in police custody. Look back to 9-11, and how quickly a conspiracy by the media and US government was bought hook, line and sinker by the American population, and how convenient that was to start a “War on Terror”, which morphed into a global “War of Terror”. And, the use of sanctions and financial bribery to crush global dissent worldwide. And now the globalist project has failed. Based on how the US people were so easily fooled, why not do it again? A sociopath’s dream… no growth? Let’s accelerate a global depopulation. Airport security was so easily accepted, how about full lock-downs? And, look at what a coincidence this virus thing is with the Democratic party’s dismal chance in the November election not many months ahead, or how Hillary Clinton lost an impossible-to-lose Presidential election, with her winning totally aiming to cement globalist control, and how her husband bill brought on the financialization for the globalist project by not vetoing Gramm-Leach-Bliley leading to the end of Glass-Steagall and the separation of depositors money from their market gambling. Note also that the “final report” is in on the debunking of the government’s story on 9-11 about how some trash can fires brought down WTC-7 just came out? And, the American people bought that hook-line-and-sinker. Or, that Trump has now ordered the call up of a million national guard troops 48 hours after meeting with the Caroline Kennedy (and remember how convenient it was that JFK, Jr. died mysteriously when he was being courted to run for the NY Senate, and how that opened the nomination to Hillary Clinton in 1998?). A whole lot of coincidences which a thinking person cannot ignore. No wonder they are essentially locking us all up in our homes.

THE TYRANNY OF “ZERO TOLERANCE” SECURITY ENVIRONMENTS
According to the Portland (Oregon) Police Bureau and officers posted at the Portland International Airport (2006), Federal Regulations require the immediate removal of any individual who causes “any kind of disturbance” while waiting in the airport lobby or otherwise. This means any arguments, loud conversations, or other disagreements.
So, to be safe and not miss your flight, its generally advisable to NOT talk to strangers or to get close (sit next to ) anyone while awaiting boarding, if possible. Otherwise, any conflict that becomes noticed is reported, the Airport Police arrive, and the offending person MAY, at the officer’s discretion, be removed from the airport and probably trespassed, as well. In additin, this is a good way to be added to the Federal Government’s so-called No-Fly List. There is no appeal from official blackballing either.
Now, we are seeing the equivalent of “Zero Tolerance Security” at retail grocery lines in and outside of the store. Once Martial Law is in-effect declared ( National Guard Mobilized) and mandatory curfews imposed on all, then you are “at the airport” while waiting to enter a local grocery store. Strict security protocols can be strictly enforced any time the proprietor and/or the authorities want to or choose to inorder to keep “the people” in-line and intimidate everyone, as well. Welcome to the prospect of being a conquered people who would then be proved even weaker than the French (Vichy Government 1940-1945) ever were. French Fries = America Fries Bro.

VICHY CALIFORNIA
I have noticed a great many fellow residents in my general area when standing in-line to buy groceries are very compliant and usually resigned to the new normal ( present circumstances). No real opposition or reservations at all critical of what our State elected officials have imposed upon them in recent weeks. Actually, if anything, they support these new restrictions because they generally agree with the reason: Corona virus health threat.
So, everybody from the top down rolled. Thus, we Americans are proving to be even weaker than the French were in 1941 when German Troops goose-stepped through the Arch de Triumph in Paris, France. Accordingly, it appears French Fries equals American fries. I am not sure anyone is going to fear us much if we bellow in the future. Once you lose liberties and freedoms, a legal precedent has been set.
Its similar to a beachhead for invading socialists and constitutional power-grabbers everywhere and even an encouragement to take even more of your liberties. I expect they eventually will take more liberties in the next National Emergency and then not return them all. There will, in all probability, be a next time.

Little Known Details in the Stimulus Bill of 2020:
Corporations that take-out govt. loans have a number of mgmt. constraints placed upon them (strings attached):
-No payment of shareholder dividends until a year after the loan is paid-off
-No Executive stock options or bonuses until the loan has been repaid
-A “cap” on Executive salaries above $450,000/year. If an executive earns more than $3 Million a year, he is only allowed to keep half of the amount above the base (approved) compensation of $450,000/year. No Executive raises either until the loan is repaid in-full.(Salary Freeze).
-Executives can not buy back company stock, again, until a year after the loan if fully repaid.

I am sitting on the sidelines waiting for the right time to purchase a house in a rural area, far away from the “rat race”. I have literally been waiting 10 years for a crash. It appears that the financial crisis has arrived, but metals are down and real estate is up. Not what I was expecting…

The weapon of Mass Deception is trying to tell us that we should sing songs from our window to celebrate our imprisonment. What we need to shout from our windows everywhere in the world are the words of FDR: The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Tonight according to the local propaganda ministry there are 1800 cases in LA county out of over 10 million people. This is a campaign of terror. Our elderly parents are literally in a state of panic. If truth does not prevail we face utter destruction.

Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza_pandemic#Nature_of_a_flu_pandemic Scroll down page to chart. Very revealing. This virus is a pussycat compared to past flu’s, such as Hong Kong, Asian, and even Swine (60.8 million cases in US alone – NO lockdown.

Boyle’s argument is thoroughly questioned and essentially refuted here: https://www.activistpost.com/2020/03/coronavirus-2019-ncov-coronavirus-2-sars-cov-2-old-angles-reviewed-uncommon-angles-offered.html
This doesn’t mean corona wasn’t dropped on China. DARPA is one suspect, with facilities in the region. BTW, over 74,000 recovered in China – which has nothing to do with the draconian method so praised by WHO and Trumpy Bear
Virus could also have been spread ‘mechanically.’ See also in above article about the unreliability of the official test – “PCR”.

The love-to-hate folks who blame China should study the history of chemical and biological warfare research. China’s wet behind the ears compared to US, GB, Germany, and, during WW II, Japan. Moreover France sold the Level 4 Wuhan facility to China, then was deeply involved in the setup. Just amazing how brainwashed into self-righteousness so many Americans are.

And that is different from the US how? In effect, it’s not much different from US and the so-called free world. It’s really just a different Drama, the script-writers of which GC never addresses. It may come as a surprise to some that propaganda is even more necessary in the ‘free’ world than in totalitarian regimes. Must see: metanoia-films.org/psywar. Propaganda is the main way in which the (supranational) power structure communicates with us “free-world” common folk, but via the press, corporations, banks, and governments. Totalitarian governments are actually more honest 🙂

One good thing that may come out of the depression is that people will begin to communicate again as they did in the 1940’s. Today they have been brainwashed by the hidden agendae coming from the “programmed” TV brought to you by the nutjobs that want to control the world and like to tell you what is right, what is wrong, what is good, what is bad, etc. In my opinion, they are using this CV crisis to implement their agendae, one of which is to change paper currency to digital currency. No one says a word while they take away our freedom, piece by piece, day by day. America is asleep! America has become a land of sheeple who are being herded into the sheering barn. Wake up…they are using this crisis to steal your tax money, which you will pay later via inflation. “Never let a crisis go to waste.” Ben Franklin stated: “We have given you a Constitutional Republic …. if you can keep it.” We are giving it away to the 1% control freaks!!!

Half the people won’t even receive those checks of a miserable 1200 bucks! They don’t even know how they are going to send them – have to open up a whole new dept. to do it.

As confirmed again, Politician don’t have the ability to solve problems.
The fact that no one saw this virus coming, i.e. why did the Chinese built big hospitals in the beginning of February in ten days time, and why were the number of cases some much different in China than the WHO and the Diamond Princess cruise ship.
Apparently I have more expertise and judgement than the government with all their money consuming experts and intelligence agencies.
Most problems can be solved with science and technology when correctly applied.
Considering this it looks like as trends in the news also suggested it is a setup followed by brainless leaders which started as a game of which they didn’t think of the consequences, oeps!

At the time we had a gold standard. The currency was disciplined at $20 to the oz. If I’m remembering correctly wasn’t the purpose of the gold call-in a vain attempt by government seeking to make the money supply more “elastic”? They banned ownership and made everybody turn over what they had (they were apparently pretty serious about it too. I remember reading a story about a guy over in Jersey who did 10 years federal for having some coins in his safety deposit box). The Feds then rolled the dollar out at I think $35 and change and then you could own gold again–not that they gave you back what they’d grabbed off you. If there’s any truth to that I’m struggling to see how now that the gold window’s been closed nearly 50 years and the money’s about as “elastic” as it gets what would be the justification for calling gold in without a direct currency link? Before, an excuse could be sort of be made with the commodity being directly linked to the nation’s currency . Now no such excuse exists. So what purpose could they claim to have for calling in everybody’s gold this time around?

Lots of good info here, but unfortunately stops at the “Drama” level. Example: The difference between conventional and holistic medicine is that the former calls symptoms diseases, throws drugs at them to force the body to relinquish them. This is sometimes called a ‘cure.’ Holistic medicine recognizes that there are deep underlying conditions that produce the symptoms called specific diseases, as defined by a catalog of symptom sets.
One key is that the same underlying conditions, such as toxicity, nutritional insufficiency, pH imbalance, inflammation (a biggie) and disruption of balance in the collection of beneficial microorganisms that maintain human life another biggie), can create any number of different “diseases,” depending on the individual – for which there is little consideration medicine, where protocols are one-size-fits-all.
When convention gets a result, such as disappearance of symptoms, it usually means end of treatment. Then, the underlying condition festers on, almost certain to reappear down the line as “something else,” i.e., another “disease.” It’s simply a flawed medical paradigm that perpetuates illness, ensuring continued profit. Thus, conventional health care should be called ‘iatrogenic disease management.
Just so, in most sociopolitical analyses here, the Drama mentioned correlates with the specific disease doctrine. And the panoply of “issues” addressed in the Journal are diseases caused by an underlying condition rarely if ever addressed. That condition is the deep and ancient manipulation of techno-human society by a supranational power structure that constantly injects chaos into the system (its creation) in order to advance a total-domination global-ist Agenda. To attribute what’s happening to politicians and “presstitutes” is tantamount to blaming hit men and triggermen for the contracts put out by Mafioso dons.
This power infiltrates into most nations its conditioned operatives. This is especially useful for creating conflict and war, upon which the psychopaths at the top of the power structure thrive. You put operatives on both/all sides of existing and potential conflict. This was done, for example, in our Civil War. Ariel Sharon and Yassir Arafat served the same masters. GC wants “peace” but refuses to address the scene beyond the symptoms, which appear as Politics – a dog-and-pony show acting out the Drama based on POLICY handed down from above.
It’s just like going to a play. We sit and watch the players in the Drama, but don’t see the script writers and directors. Shakespeare probably didn’t know how right he was.
But the superficial politics approach has the same value of perpetuation – a whole bunch of ‘separate’ issues to “analyze” and make predictions about. To cure cancer, for example, would put an end to an incredibly profitable scenario – where the real money is: in half-baked, iatrogenic treatment and in research. Thus, not to cure it is the goal. Same thing here.
To even begin to ‘cure’ the chaotic system – and the system, an Elite construct, is the problem, more than how it’s run is the problem – would require encouraging people to question highly prized beliefs, ways, and means long programmed into the culture as mind traps. One thing, for example, might be that our way of life is actually enslaving – as in the economic system – and pathological/ultimately suicidal – as in our technological fascinations, which are almost all toxic. And. above all, that these aspects are not spontaneous or accidental, but carefully orchestrated. It is an orchestrated illness/slow-genocide agenda, among other things.
As long as we conform to the system, we are enslaved (such as ‘believing’ in gold), because that’s what the system is and does. Materialistic fascination/consumerism are Elite constructs exploiting techno-human character flaws while facilitating mass herding and control. So is institutionalized government per se a construct; and the Elite have specialized in creating “both” kinds – “free” and totalitarian – and set them against one another, while operating equally well in both. Wall Street created the USSR and the Third Reich.
Getting free would require the courage the system calls for in soldiers, because power isn’t going to relinquish its advantage and control by being asked. We have to recognize the systemic means of control and let them go. Consumer madness, so basic to “the economy,” is direct support for system manipulators. And the global control system is coming in the technosphere, not geopolitically as once thought. A good example is wireless tech. Small example: Smart phones are being tracked and watched to see if people are obeying the 6-foot rule.
We will NEVER be free or have better health unless we stop all wireless technology. It’s the very foundation of the Elite plan for “1984” and “Brave New World” on steroids. That would be a first step. There is no easy way out.

“While a number of health professionals are stating COVID-19 is “deadlier” than the seasonal flu, the data so far shows seasonal flu kills far more people than COVID-19. …”
False comparison/careless research? Flu does kill more people, but by virtue of total number of cases, not by being deadlier. Flu mortality rate is low. Example: 2009 Swine flu: CDC: “From April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010, CDC estimated there were 60.8 million cases … and 12,469 deaths … in the United States due to the (H1N1) pdm09 virus” (no lockdown 🙂 Do the percentage math.
Corona is higher at about .04-.05% globally, although, lower in the US, around .02% (just doing math based on reported numbers- overall “confirmed” cases divided into total deaths – NOT listening to opinions, as above) https://nssac.bii.virginia.edu/covid-19/dashboard/ AND https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/cases-in-us.html
It is deadlier by rate, but lower at this point by case volume. Should it reach the infectiousness of flu, based on global rate, it would blow flu out of the water by at least double. Still, overall, it’s a mild illness. But wiping out the old folks saves SS$$. One thing, over 74,000 have recovered in China alone.
Finally, we can talk stats, but a real problem lies in their reliability. Example: “If we had not known about a new virus out there, and had not checked individuals with PCR tests, the number of total deaths due to ‘influenza-like illness’ would not seem unusual this year. At most, we might have casually noted that flu this season seems to be a bit worse than average.”
Unfortunately, despite official faith in PCR, it has a serious flaw and potentially many more. Please See here under “Testing” https://www.activistpost.com/2020/03/coronavirus-2019-ncov-coronavirus-2-sars-cov-2-old-angles-reviewed-uncommon-angles-offered.html

“You must stay at home… if you don’t follow the rules, the police will have the powers to enforce them.”
So the politicians and cops aren’t even bothering with laws and due process any more, PM makes a new ‘rule’ and we must all obey or the police will act as his enforcers. Isn’t that how totalitarian dictators behave?

Traditional definitions of recession fall short of capturing what’s going on. The two consecutive quarters measure will look quaint by the time we get there, when the first take on GDP for the second quarter comes out in July.
The National Bureau of Economic Research has a business cycle dating committee that does a more fine-tuned analysis, but you won’t hear from them for a while. Their last note was about the end of the last recession, marking the trough t June of 2009. But that announcement did not come until September, 2010. By then, we were well into the recovery, though many didn’t feel it.
The NBER definition is that contractions (recessions) start at the peak of a business cycle and end at the trough. They say further, “a recession is a significant decline in economic activity spread across the economy, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in real GDP, real income, employment, industrial production, and wholesale-retail sales.” We clearly have a whopping crash in all four of those measures nationally and beyond. The only remaining question is, how long does it last?

Corona virus is money out of the window

April 6, 2020 Maren Bjerre
I’m sorry. This is entire ‘crisis’ has been designed by globalists forces and the Democratic Party of the US, in order to defeat nationalism and make their socialist and homogenized world society a near future reality. Notice how the crisis is most acute (and likely overblown) in the predominately Democrat-controlled area (northeastern US, and the west coast, who coincidentally have Democrat governors). Note as well how a cure for the virus has been found, but the Democratic party-aligned media discount this, and party leaders fight against its application. Don’t forget the pharmaceutical industry and Bill Gates, drooling over the billions in profits from their releasing expensive vaccinations, which some believe will be utilized to microchip members of society so that they be better “managed”. And, most of all, remember the phony “Russiagate”, followed by the ludicrous Impeachment efforts which failed, followed by Nancy Pelosi stating that they would get rid of Trump some way or other, and their desperation of being stuck with an alarmingly weak candidate to face Trump in the election. They are now talking about canceling the nominating convention where that candidate could well embarrass all with his senilic ineptitude, and the debates with Trump likely to be canceled next. And, now the use of demands for expanded by-mail voting in which they would be partly in charge of counting as a condition for more expansion of further financial relief for the population. Do you know whose name is on the Security and Exchange Commission’s ownership documents of the infamous Wuhan biological weapons laboratory? George Soros. And, how about the banned YouTube videos showing normal operations at many hospitals which are allegedly overwhelmed? You won’t see this mentioned in the New York Times. They attempt to blame Trump for not taking earlier measures, but excuse the Obama administration for not laying the groundwork previously, as they had a meeting two weeks before Trump was officially President to warn of a possible pandemic. So, why did they not begin to lay that groundwork earlier? It was necessary for the arch-globalist Clintons to be installed into power to finalize the one-world government strategy. Notice how they went right after Russia, with no evidence, right after the 2016 election? Or before that incited a coup in Ukraine, followed by excusing Ukraine’s likely shooting down that airliner (Putin’s similarly styled plane was crossing the country at the same time). Or, the sanctions following to enable the EU sanctions which cost their countries billions of dollars in trade. Or the Dutch courts framing Russia without Russia being able to be a part of the investigation, and with Ukraine enabled to veto any final report? Get it?

As a nurse in a leading New York hospital I can report that Geralds cavalier attitude is disingenuous . Of our nursing staff approximately 50% are down sick. I am also sick but luckily without SOB , at any rate I have never experienced anything remotely close to this. The malaise and prolonged fever an undescriable aura that just pervades your body. Some of my coworkers have died others are on ventilators. There is a consensus among those coworkers that I have spoken to that this disease was bioengineered but of course we have no proof. The virulence is also frightening. Before I got sick was taking care of 8 patients all Covid 19. I would see there respiratory status decompensate before my eyes 80% oxygen saturation rate ,they lie on the beds prostate unable to move , eat, defecating on themselves , most make it but its horrible . I do believe that this crisis will serve the oligarchs to rob the public purse , facilitate asset grabs including perhaps state property. An economic reset is however not going to be so easy America is becoming the new Greece and heading as Larouche used to say for the dark ages.

OUR WHITE SWAN
Author Nassim Taleb said in a recent interview the corona virus pandemic-panic was “Not” a ‘Black Swan’, but instead, a White Swan. Nassim draws the distinction because he previously discussed the odds of a national pandemic back in 2007. Nassim’s professional opinion is since it was predictable as to eventual occurrence, then the government could have been better prepared, but as usual, they did not feel so inclined until afterwards. Its always that way too. Politicians are always reactive not never proactive. Its is what it is.
Author and columnist Bill O’Reilly’s latest opinion on his podcast is that President Trump may lose unless a corona virus cure can be found. A vaccine would have to be developed by June, approved by the FDA, and administered to the general population BEFORE the Nov. Presidential Election. ( I understand that is highly unlikely unless its a trademarked vaccine owned by Bill Gates and the Gates Foundation). So, its not necessarily a default that President Trump keeps his job if another candidate gets the Democratic Party Nomination in the July Democratic Convention in Detroit, Mich. this coming July. Its sure will not be Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders.
So, it may all boil-down to the people being given a vaccine. ( May I suggest a placebo for convenience sake). Fake News, Fake Medicine, so how about a Fake Vaccine, as well. In today’s world, authenticity is not a common criteria anymore, at least for the masses. If everyone buys it, then you have President Trump for 4 more years. It all comes down to confidence. However, I do worry who comes AFTER President Trump.

And it’s look over here, HERE! COVID COVID COVID… Meanwhile, military operations continue rabidly on schedule (and with plenty of $) .El dear Presidente is over a barrel. On the daily briefing BS from the White House, he blathers incoherently – well, his world fell apart too! His “greatest” economy in free fall, idem his stockmarket. Blackrock now controlling the Treasury! And Pompeo et al organizing the next war on Iran. As I always maintained, Mr. Trump is not in control. He’s the fall guy par excellence. Sad.

Bill Gates: “Eventually what we’ll have to have is certificates of who’s a recovered person, who’s a vaccinated person…
…Because you don’t want people moving around the world where you’ll have some countries that won’t have it under control, sadly.
You don’t want to completely block off the ability for people to go there and come back and move around.
So eventually there will be this digital immunity proof that will help facilitate the global reopening up.”

Hi!
So far in Maine the police said that they would not stop anyone on the highways regarding the governor’s EO (executive order is ONLY an “internal” order for the Executive Department) and does
NOT apply to the citizens or legal aliens.
This may change over time.
I left my home last Saturday and saw one cop. I was not stopped. I shall see
what happens at the end of the week when I travel the highways.
House arrest is total fraud and unconstitutional.
Thank you!

I have to respectfully disagree with categorizing this just another flu. The virus, itself, is very real and dangerous. From what I’ve seen on the ground, it is very highly contagious and does appear to have a significantly higher death rate than seasonal flu, if left untreated. Given the immaturity of COVID testing programs, we don’t really know the true death rate, which is probably an intentional obfuscation. The fact that those who are in the unlucky category, whatever the actual number, die pretty horribly is another fact. I’ve experienced that pretty personally. It is a sitution which would seem to call for initial abundance of caution.
That said, the “cure” can’t be more deadly than the problem. Economic depressions are also very deadly.
You’re absolutely right. The actual numbers are small when compared with all the other ways to die, even accounting for blatent Chinese lies. If we take reasonable precautions like we would during a normal flu epidemic, like washing hands, using virtual conference calls, limited social distancing (no bars, airline cattle cars & sitdown restaurants), telecommuting when possible, staying home when sick, most of us can probably get back to work. Those who are under 40 without pre-existing conditions are probably prime candidates for returning to work. It sounds cold, but letting the under 40 group get it would probably accelerate herd immunity without horribly overwhealming the healthcare system.
I think the real story has to do with why our very expensive healthcare system seems to be unable to handle this situation. The white shoe boys have led people to believe that they can issue special pieces of paper which magically hedge risk, like those ever lovable CDOs they sold 10 years ago. I think this has clearly shown that they are full of sh*t. Nothing substitutes for having a nicely sized inventory with a sufficient safety stock consisting of critical products that are sourced locally. “Just-In-Time” needs to be rephrased as “Just-In-Time-To-Die” or “Just-In-Time-To-Go-Bankrupt”.
Any plebe at West Point, going back to pretty much the beginning of the academy can probably tell you that long supply lines without redundancy are dangerous and shoud be avoided. Globalism has shown that it is very fragile and only enriches a few, leaving everyone else as modern slaves. COVID is going to accelerate the trend toward local production. I don’t see them ever being able to put together the globalist Humpty Dumpty the way it was before COVID. That’s going to be the big trend coming out of this situation.
The hype and fear tactics are disgusting. The politicians and elites are using this as an excuse to implement every wishlist totalitarian social control they can imagine. They are using it as an excuse to give their globalist masters a bailout blank check out of our funds. The globalist system was falling apart pretty seriously before this disease. COVID gives them cover.
The other thing I see from this is that is shows how much we have become accustomed to asking the government for permission to do anything. We need to stop asking for permission to exercise our rights as US Citizens. If I want to try a medication that’s not approved by the “official assholes” and my personal doctor is OK with prescribing it, why should the government get involved? This is the time to let indivudual entreprenuership loose on the problem.

Hi Gerald,
I think there is a mistake on the death number for NYC.
« Despite some of the highest levels of hospitalization, as of Monday, 2,475 people have died in New York City, a city of 8.6 million (0.029 percent) ».
« Of the 4,758 in New York City who have died of coronavirus since 14 March, a new report released on Monday shows that… »
Regardless of this mistake, it is an excellent article.
My wife is working at a hospital in Quebec City and they are all in panic mode waiting for all the sick people. Hasn’t happened so far and I doubt it will. I’ve been telling her all the facts and numbers but her only argument left is: « if the doctors say so, we should listen to them ». I don’t know about other countries but in every press conference there is, you have that « reliable » doctor to support the Prime Minister. The only purpose of this doctor is to convince the population that the lockdown is the best solution to save us all.

Not everyone is living in fear and many people are beginning to accept natural medicine. I have used natural medicine since 1980. The store where I normally buy my supplements hasn’t had a bottle of vitamin C in weeks. The manager tells me he is flooded with calls for anything that supports the immune system.
This morning I see this interesting article: https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/04/no_author/modern-medicine-laid-bare/
that is worth reading. Bill Sardi has been writing about natural cures since this comedy of errors began. Along with vitamin C it is important to check vitamins D, zinc, Selenium and supplement those that your body is lacking.

I am just as disgusted with the Covid-19 hype as you are. I sit across the table everyday with someone who has completely accepted the propaganda from the healthcare establishment and politician rhetoric and economic distraction of the nation states, etc.
Our stupid politicians bought into the Bill Gates, George Soros, CDC, FDA, NIH, WHO pandemic scenario to create the environment we are living in at present with a lockdown truly unjustified if the real impact of the virus is managed in the same way we have handled flu outbreaks for the past 30 years.
There was some speculation in October 2019 that if the impeachment of Trump failed, the ELITES would destroy thenUS economy. The elites being the “One World Governance” organizations, Banksters, billionaires, oligarchs, Wall Street, and anyone able to affect an economic impact.
Lo and behold along comes Covid-19, Bill Gates, George Soros, WHO, virus research and a pandemic scenario and we have the economic shutdown needed to destroy the US economy that was already a house of cards but held up to get Trump re-elected. A perfect storm and total political gamesmanship!!!

I was out walking in the realm. Someone caught my attention. I really cannot recall if the undividual2 nodded, waved, or I sensed the interest there. Perhaps the latter. I turned toward the distraction,and forthwith a voice said you,”You do not recognize me?” “Not that!”,I replied.
I then felt I should explain myself. I produced a five-dollar-bill and showed the picture thereon to the model for which the picture on the “fin” was produced. I do acknowledge your likeness; I explained. But “recognize” has a much more significant meaning to me. I have a knowledge of history since grammer-school, and beyond. Moreover, I have lived long enough to have gained some perspective. So you might say I have put two and two
together and, now and then, arrive at a conlusion. For instance, I have read some of Alexis de Tocqueville. He had some interesting predictions and ideas about the future of the United States of America. The irony is he and de Beaumont were sent to the United States of America to study the prison systems.
Irony came later, when the Confederate States of the south attempted to cecede from the “Union.” They, the Confederate States found they were locked in a prison and could not get out. They, in effect, were caught in a trap. They had to just get used to the living conditions dictated to them by “executive order”. The United States of America paid very heavily in lives and years of chaos for the concept of “equality”. Equality is and always will be an “ideal”3.
“You do use the five-dollar-bill for currency even though the image on it is of lower value to you?” my acquaintance asked. “Yes, you do come in handy every once in a while.”,I responded. To many people, I further commented,”You are an iconic hero. They ascribe a lot of value to your acts and accomplishments, far more than the mere five-bucks!”, I added.
He seemed to want to know a bit more. “But, you perhaps, do not agree with or accept that value?”, he asked.
I reminded him that I used the the phrase, “To many people… I would add that, too many people, hold you in high-esteem.” The arch in his eyebrows went up. He twisted his head a little, top to neck, as if mixing that into the batter or dressing. Our meeting was looking more like a chef confronting a taster. The wheels were really starting to turn in his cranium.
Our confrontation was at a crossroads. We both wondered if we should choose a direction. Or maybe abandon the path at this point. We paused, but did not do an-about-face. I took the initiative and asked what he thought after all the years since the theater. What in his opinion was gained by his Gettysburg Address?

Gerald,
As always you bring out that which most would rather not think about but should. I have watched this madness and have concluded that that thing we used to call These United States no longer exists. I don’t know what to call what we are now left with it but, America is gone. Bought out by a larger corporation most likely.
The former government of These United States morphed into such an evil grotesque thing that it is probably safe to say that 90% of the world despises what we are and represent. None will morn our passing. We are not faultless. As much as I tried to vote for people that I thought would be true to our Constitution until giving up after 1992 in disgust, it never worked. Our only hope is that these latest outrages anger the used to be Americans as much as our behavior over the years has angered the rest of the world. Then maybe, those who survive can build something better.
I wish every one well.

Unfortunately.. I’ve been saying for some time that the era we’re living through provides elegant proof of how easily a population can be steered if there’s central control of the media. The underlying truth is that the virus provides cover and an explanation for the economic collapse that was already in the cards absolving the perpetrators of guilt. It was the virus. . . not something that little old us might have done. It’s also allowed the US to double down it’s economic attacks on governments it deems enemies while they’re weakened by the pandemic. All pretense of honor is out the window, regardless of how justified our sanctions might be. It makes me want to take a shower.

A brilliant psychopathic plan: Our phony baloney economies are failing dramatically… what do we do? Obviously, stoke a pandemic (details unknown) to which all our economic failures can be blamed, and afterwards making the politicians backing these sociopathic plans look like heroes. “What am I gonna do with 400 ventilators…” Bravo! A room full of the smartest guys in the room. And, an added bonus: it has been confirmed that our general population is of the ‘Chicken Little’ variety. At the first sign of upset to their pathetic lives, they will get in line (and even ear masks!). A fascist’s delight. Peace candidates will fold and back warmongers. And then support an obvious globalist order-taking puppet as the new Demoncrat candidate. We got rid of the peace lady, then we got rid of the socialist guy… should we get rid of the senile guy, too? Democratic party? Hey they fix their nominating process – some democracy! It all seems like 9-11 when the globalists instantly had a complete conspiracy set up to arrange for the popular support necessary to back endless Middle Eastern wars. They’ve got us now… there are not enough Americans with the cojones to be actually free or deserving democracy itself, when to be co-opted by charlatans is so much more convenient.

I agree with most of Geralds analysis particularly about the economy however this virus is extremely virulent . What would he have done if he was in control sit back with hands folded. There are lots of people who have this virus that have not been counted.. Also there is no histopathology as to the long term effects. Many people who got SARS ended up with pulmonary fibrosis. I am a believer in conspiracy theories and evil agendas and perhaps we should be looking more closely at same. If this was a deliberate attack on China it may have boomeranged in an unexpected fashion but its difficult to say. Other pieces of the puzzle may soon be revealed like forced vaccinations ,digital currencies and the fear of every evangelical the digital mark of the beast. However dividing the number of people who have died by the number infected and then by the total population only severs to negate the danger of this man made disease.

“Of course the people don’t want war. But after all, it’s the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it’s always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it’s a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger.”

What Americans need right now is knowledge. There is just too much ignorance about what our rights are, and what the rules on the government are. I am going to link to a webpage from the Chicago Law School in honor of the late David Currie, who reads the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. When you listen to it, it is shocking how far outside of the rules the government has strayed. For example, bribery and self-enrichment in office is unconstitutional. Right now what we have is a bribe-ocracy where money rules the day. I recommend people listen to this not once, but many times in order to memorize it. We can then share knowledge with our fellow Americans, which is our only way out of this predicament.

and, speaking of being made homeless…
I was flown out to Los Angeles at the end of last month to work a 4-week crisis job in a big hospital here in the city. My agency set me up to stay in a hotel for the month not far from my work site. The following is an excerpt from a letter I received under my door last week:
“Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for choosing to stay at the “X” and for choosing to serve and care for those in need during these difficult times. I come to you with unfortunate news. Our hotel will not be available to the public effective April 3rd due to Governor Gavine Newsom’s Executive order facilitated by Los Angeles County. Due to this, we unfortunately have to ask all current guests to depart the hotel no later than Sunday April 5th 2020 by 12 noon….”
Came to find out the hotels in the area were being cleared out to make room for the homeless. As I and the other medical staff are rolling out with our luggage we get down to the front desk and sure enough the homeless are lined up out the door with shopping carts full of gear and collapsible tents. I’d been watching my Trends during my off hours and so I had it in me to ask the guy at the front desk, “So, what’s your exit strategy for this?” The guy just shook his head and wouldn’t even look at me. So, in order to make room for the homeless, people flown in here to help the covid situation were now being made homeless. (Most of us were able to get new digs. Some did quit their contracts, though). Wish I could say I was making it up. Thought it was worth sharing.

The part of this disease that is man made is the treatment of it, the propaganda on it and power grab part. I agree with you that the actual nature of the disease killing people is an important point because the “science” of the WHO is the excuse being used to do all the other stuff. If it is a regular disease then none of the reaction is warranted.

What we’re seeing is a debt jubilee for the Baby Boom generation. More specifically the materialistically successful boomers… like the bankers, corporate honcho’s, politicians, and financiers, etc.. The less-than successful (financially speaking) boomers are seen as they have always been – at best as labor herds and debt-slaves in our neo-feudalistic economic ‘plantation’. Since 2009, our financial machine has been propped up by an average of some $1 trillion debt added to the US economy annually (or what passes for an economy). The trillions loaned in the form of bailouts are simply more debt (loans). Much of that debt will be repaid by smoke and mirrors, if not just outright forgiven. Bloomberg economics predict that this year another $2.4 trillion will be added to the federal debt, accelerating into 2030 up to $3.5 trillion annually, at which point the federal debt will approximate 130% of the US GDP. By 2030, the Baby Boom generation will be mostly gone from the Earth, and with them their share of the debt. What we are seeing is a tripling-down on the ‘kick the can down the road’ strategy on steroids since employed post-2009, or socialism for the rich, savage capitalism for the rest of the population. Or, the idea of trickle-down economics accelerated unveiled in the early-1980’s. The US government now underwrites 90% of the massive student loan market, 60% of the health care system through Medicare and Medicaid, and around 60% government supported mortgage-issuing entities like Freddie Mac. What we are now seeing is the world’s greatest transfer of wealth from the bottom of the social pyramid to the top. Essentially, the the debt and attendant risk will be pushed off onto future generations. But, boomers like me will be taken care of at the expense of future generations. Bottom line: we live in a doomed economic system, which each day forward further distorts ‘capitalism’ into an officially-sanctioned parasitism (or capitalist communism, if you will). The so-called ‘elites’ have long dreamed of a ‘culling of the global herd’ down to, say, 500 million servants, by further directing money from useless eater types to their members, making population decrease inevitable. Notice how we have no say in any of these social, economic or political strategies. What a great opportunity the virus crisis has to divert blame from the folks that accelerated our economic collapse to transition to replace legacy employees with robotics they need not pay or provide benefits to, and to deflect the blame for their disastrous hyper-financialization, and help them to manage global population downward without taking blame there, as well. And in the process preventing hyper-inflation by providing only crumbs to the vast majority in the form of measly $1200 checks, while increasing their own financial hoarding vastly – and designed to not increase the velocity of the money thus created, avoiding resultant inflation and degradation of their assets. Also, a successful test now performed of locking down the population in a form of martial law, or soft totalitarianism. Brilliant, as usual, kudos to the cadre to ‘smartest-guy-in-the-room types’! Small wonder you have become so magnificently (and obscenely) rich. And thanks for giving baby boomers like me such a wonderful advantage over future generations we will not need to see or feel empathy for. Bravo!

Perhaps the recovery may look more like one which is L-shaped , with a rapid fall-off and then stabilizing and staying near the bottom for longer than anyone currently thinks. Most investors, especially Corporate Insiders ( as mentioned in article), are still optimistic. The have confidence and are buying. The FED is boosting confidence with more smoke and mirrors, as they can not be the last bid for all equities and fixed income. There HAS to be limits.
My guess is the market bottom might be in once the most favored sector, technology, hits its all time low. This bottoming process in the previously strongest market sector of the last ten years would signal a possible end of residual investor bullishness. Watch the FANGS and see where they go. If they go lower from here, eventually investors will capitulate and sell. After that, perhaps, the market can slowly mend all the (technical) damage that has been done by our glorious leaders and bureaucrats. Currently, the FED (QE 4 unlimited) is helping keep-up investor confidence, but for how much longer?

Interesting thing with this Covat and NY State, As of March 1 the county put into effect this mandatory county wide (which included the greater NYC area) plastic bag ban. No more stores supplying any plastic bags. If you want a paper bag you have to pay 5 cents for it or purchase one of those “re-useable” bags.
So allegedly there’s this mass contagious virus going around, would it make more sense for stores to give out disposable bags to cart groceries home or re-use a bag over and over again. Which is more in line with the “crisis”?

The “banksters” have long been in charge, and the financialization of the economy has resulted in the subordination of every industry to finance capital. The Federal reserve is now the largest hedge fund. This bioengineered disease strategically released to hurt China and facilitate some economic reorganization and grand theft has however backfired.
The new world order to emerge will see two spheres of influence continue to evolve the East driven by China and a divided west under America. Thats the real trend dominating economic reality and China will begin to slowly extricate from America as far as is economically feasible. The geopolitical and economic imperative is also for Russia to be aligned with China. The logic of Hitlers economic goals which he wanted to achieve in war will be achieved in peace as Germany will have to eventually move closer to Russia to get the raw materials necessary for its own economic survival. Thats the imperative. India is in la la land destined to be used and manipulated until it resolves its internal class and cast devisions.

Gerald was the first person and only person that I have heard explicitly make the point that the adjective ‘social distancing’ came from nowhere to instantly become a daily part of the English language and our daily behaviors. This is a powerful observation. The mass power of America’s fake news propaganda presstitute machine. I recall hearing the first person talk about Coronavirus in public, before there were no masks and looting management (locked door, one in, one out) queues at dollar stores. That was just 38 days ago I heard that. Three weeks after we had six foot gaps in queues and most in masks. Like a horror movie. Hedge Funds should never be bailed out. They are money laundering mafia rackets that try to offer a tacky explanation for the ways in which they manufacture paper wealth out of thin air. Great video.

Thanks for sharing Dascallon. I find these sorts of on-the-ground stories just as interesting/important as the macro big picture policies. The two overlap. The best intelligence data comes from the streets.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
In La Canada, Calif. L.A. County Deputy Sheriffs now write citations (fines) to shoppers who enter the local grocery store without the required protective mask. Its a citable offense and the penalty, according to one grocery checker is $1,000 dollars. This is the State statutory maximum fine that can be legally assessed in a public place for a non-Felony level (criminal) offense.
Any fine above $1,000 or up to one year in Jail by law is considered a statutory Felony offense. Felony offenses first require a Grand Jury proceeding (Constitutional requirement ), then an arrest, court arraignment and a Jury Trial (due process) if the defendant elects to plead “not guilty”. These are constitutional rights, not merely options for authorities to grant.

THE GREAT SORT
Socialism is all about following orders and conforming with overall society ( the World ), only its not yet as harsh as full-on communism. However, we just took a big step towards the far Left in less than one month. In communism, the non-compliant go off to Gulag and your property is expropriated ( No Due Process or Trial ), or you are just plain dead and disappear into the night.
Faith is the ability and willingness to believe in what is yet to be. So, those who are “strong” will find a way around the current difficulties and carry-on, while the faint of heart my perish in the wind. The Bible emphasizes the majority in any age will perish and not inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Its human nature to take the easy route and go with the flow, regardless of its direction or ultimate destination. We generally lack Godly Wisdom. So, one could call this short period of difficulty or crisis to be a precursor to the “Great Sort”

THE ULTIMATE FATE OF ALL TYRANTS IS THE SAME OUTCOME
What may occur at some point down the road in “Slavelandia” is a revolt, if history proves correct. For an eye into the future, we often must look in the past for guidance in anything which involves collective human nature.
The “Tyrant of Syracuse” did not tolerate dissension or anyone who did not strictly obey his edicts and orders. Like most Monarchs who abuse their power, his reign had a cycle and it was not in-perpetuity either. The real story is more interesting than the drier, more bland encyclopedic version.
Dionysius I used to put trouble makers in a brass bull ( “The Brazen Bull”, A&E Series “Machines of Malice”) and light a bonfire underneath it, in-effect, cooking them to death. Their muffled screams and burning flesh came out of the Brass Bull’s nose, amusing the crowd who came to gawk.
Eventually, everyone knew a victim of such monstrous cruelty and in the end, the townspeople rebelled and threw Dionysius and his Brazen Bull over a steep cliff into the Aegean Sea. This is what California and New York voters alike need to do at some point when they have actually suffered enough. History repeats. Sooner or later, the Tide will Turn, if we can go the distance.

This article is rich. “Schill” a Nobel Piece of Crap Prize winner from Yale. You can’t make this stuff up. I am skeptical of agencies that quote round tidy numbers. Ten percent unemployment. It is probably more than double that at present, even if only temporarily – counting underemployed casual workers. The global depression lasted a round perfect 10 years. I love the potholes, convoluted metaphor. It accurately avoids the black-white binary. Telling the truth is always best policy. There are compelling arguments for falsely talking something majorly up or majorly down. I think we call it justifiable deception. It never works in the end, as we end up in a dystopia of universal illusions and deceit. “We have the best economy ever …. stock market is breaking record highs”. I am sure he means well.

Transaction time: 3 seconds. John Doe after her pays in plastic. It is declined. He wipes the chip on his shirt, and says “try again”. Declined. Oops, wrong pin number. Try again. Ooops, maybe I am out of credit on the Mastercard. Here sir, please try this Visa card instead. Two minutes to buy a $1 newspaper. And when computers freeze – there is no transacting.

Hah, this was the most amusing video mr. Celente did in months. But societal change doesn’t happen just because some “irate minority” wants it, it doesn’t work like that. First, the old system has to completely rot out from within, and this rot has to become so visible that even the dumbest Joe Sixpack comes to conclusion that a change is needed. And that won’t happen as long as Joe Sixpack has his TV, beer and gasoline for his car. In other words, thing will need to get MUCH worse before they can get better, and USA is still probably YEARS before such phase. My country has underwent such change in recent decades, I lived through it, so I know. Oh and BTW, just because a societal change happens doesn’t automatically mean it will be for the better. Just ask the Ukrainians. So you rather be careful what you wish for.

People in the big cities are the only ones that can exercise the power of protest in this situation – they have critical mass and it is much harder for the media to ignore rebellions in these places. Those of us that live in small towns have been rendered pretty much powerless by the Orwellian police state – if we protest we get arrested, locked up, nobody hears anything about it and nothing changes.

Has the mass issuance of debt created a population boom or did the population boom facilitate the mass issuance of debt? There is a great body of evidence to show that the discovery and exploitation of oil resources and related technologies is what created the population boom – unprecedented energy availability and mechanised farming being the two most pertinent. The banksters just discovered a way to surf on top of the population tsunami by mass issuing debt.

In this era of disinformation I doubt nearly everything I see and read. But this documentary set off alarm bells and my gut instincts say this is a deep state hit piece on China in line with the move by Trump to switch focus from Russia to China. If so it’s a sign of escalation and desperation on the part of the empire. Remember, The most effective defense of the guilty is to accuse someone else of your crime.
Please don’t think that I am trying to defend China, Far from it as I recognize that they do bad things just as we do. In fact I am beginning to lean toward the opinion that this was a man-made bio-weapon. The biggest problem is determining who made it and was it released purposefully or accidentally.
Another big question, was it sponsored by a government, Corporation, WHO or Charitable organization or a combination of these entities?
I don’t have the capability to go much farther with this but, would like to hear other thoughts on this.

BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA…
When all this corona circus side show got started with the Propatainment Ministry’s daily dose of Dr. Anthony Fauci (rhymes with grouchy), one of my analyses of the whole plandemic was not only was this the cover under which Mr. Globaloney would cut and run, and stage a “reset” of the financial system, but that one of its intended targets was China. Don’t get me wrong, by qualifying it as a circus sideshow, I don’t mean to deny that the virus nor the threat it poses to those suffering with it, nor the deaths from it, are not real. They are. But like many, I question the parameters by which those numbers are being established. We’ve seen report after report of deaths being chalked up to corona virus that may not be the case due to complicating factors. And like many, I suspect that this is an indicator that some cases may indeed be recorded as corona virus that have nothing to do with it. Already we’ve seen mention of 5G in this regard, to the extent that some platforms are censoring any coupling of the two, a sure sign that there may be something to the hypothesis.
But returning to the subject of China, I offered in blogs on this site, and in interviews (most notably with Dark Journalist and Catherine Austin Fitts), that there was no doubt in my mind that accompanying whatever financial reset Mr. Globaloney had purposed upon, that undermining China’s Silk Road Project, and perhaps even a regime change operation designed to overthrow “President-for-life” Xi Jinping, was a possibility.
Now that possibility seems to be becoming a reality.
Let’s start with a small story shared by L.G.L.R.:
Fire Breaks out on Chinese Amphibious Assault Ship
As the article notes:
As such, the fire couldn’t have come at a worse time and it could end up being an embarrassing setback for one of the People’s Liberation Army Navy’s banner shipbuilding programs, but just how big of a setback is still yet to be seen.
It’s a small thing, to be sure, but in the context of growing world disenchantment with China and the Chinese Communist Party, it’s not only a setback, but perhaps a “message.”
But there’s a far more serious problem looming. Already America and Japan have made their intentions clear to reshore industry from China, and rest assured, other countries won’t be far behind. One reason might be India’s recent move to take China to international court over the corona virus, according to this story that many of you shared:
And it’s not just India; the Trump administration is considering similar actions amid a growing global mood that wants to see China pay for the whole Fauci crisis:
Trump administration weighs legal action over alleged Chinese hoarding of PPE
This comes at a time when there are rumblings both from within and outside of China that Mr. Xi is facing potential challenges to his leadership within the Communist Party from those associated with the late and former premier Dung-Zhao-Ping (emphasis on the dung), the leader who took over from Mao-Tse-Dung (no relationship, except for having dung in common). While I’ve not been able, as of this moment, to confirm or deny those rumblings, it is interesting that they’re already beginning to make the rounds on Twitter and other platforms, so time will tell.
The bottom line here is that if this plandemic was of Chinese origin – and I have my profound doubts – then the backlash against China, as already evidenced, will be severe, and Mr. Xi will be held accountable for it. If it was not of Chinese making – and that is my favored view – then Xi’s heavy-handedness in dealing with it both domestically and internationally will also inevitably rebound against him.
And the Fauci (rhymes with grouchy) crisis itself? Well, the good “doctor” has already come out against chloroquine as a treatment, and now is known to have connections to Mr. Keep-Everyone-in-lockdown-until-there’s-a-vaccine-Gates, both of whom stand to make a lot of money while ruining the economy if they get there way.
So herewith a message to Dr. Fauci and Mr. Gates and the whole technocratic community: I refuse to take your vaccines, especially your vaccines. I will not be marked, tattooed, scared, or sick for life because of the goop in them, nor your power-crazy agendas. Period. And if you think that’s an overreaction, just ask India about Mr. Gates’ vaccine programs…
And a message to Mr. Trump: it’s time to end this farce, and start investigations of Mr. Gates, Dr. Fauci, and this whole mess of propatainment media-driven hysteria. Otherwise, you’re just their acolyte

I agree with this trend analysis and hope that it plays out this way. I am wondering why Australia implemented what seems to be the harshest lock down laws outside of China. Fines for being on the road without a serious explanation. Fines for small groups gathering on the beach. An extreme explanation may link this bizarre extreme to a covert (war time censored?) military threat. Most likely from China. News reports from several mainstream media reports claim that three Chinese warships visited Sydney Harbor on June 3, 2019 for three days and arrived quote “unannounced”. The event happened. It is widely documented via camera footage. The “unannounced” aspect is strange.

A few weeks back, our dishonorable governor of California blatantly lied to the people of this state, and said that in a few weeks 25 million Californians would be infected. As of this morning, he is 24,973,747 short of his preposterous prediction. In my understanding, this is a guy who made off with his best friend’s wife and left his own wife. When he is willing to stab his wife and best friend in the back, what chance do we stand against this charlatan? The worst part of all of this is that this is clearly a violation of the U.S. Constitution, and the U.S. Supreme Court must act immediately to restore the checks and balances before the country is destroyed. Once again I want to remind my fellow Americans that we as individuals swore an oath before our Creator to defend the Constitution. Our choice is clear.

Dave, I admire what you say. However, it is up to each of us to make the stand and not rely on the judges, officials, and politicians. I am not an American, I reside in Canada in the province or my beloved Alberta. A home love and adore. I have come to realized a long time ago that our political leadership is castrated of thought and foresight. It serve itself and only itself while we the people pay their way. As before, it takes the spirit of a Jefferson, Madison, Adams, to forge the change which will lead to a change. As I see it, relying on the very same system to solve these issues is a fools errand.

These medieval medical “experts” have totally misled President Trump. What I cannot understand is why he is listening to these globalists/one worlders/leftys cabalists. What is really going on with this interaction??? Something fishy!
This video is worth a listen:

This economic pandemic or con-demic would please the satanic globalists whose announced intention is to reduce the population of the world, i.e., KILL PEOPLE. Now they can starve them to death. My constant question is when the hell are the people (sheeple) going to wake up and stand up to these criminals who are basic cowards since they manipulate from behind the curtains of government and industry. PEOPLE or SHEEPLE? THE BEST WAY TO WAKE UP IS TO GET ON YOUR KNEES AND ASK GOD’S FORGIVENESS AND TO REPENT. TRUST IN JESUS! WAKE UP BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

There is no reason for anyone to go without food in this country, especially, when the farmers are destroying it because they cannot sell it. The satanic globalist need to get out of the way and let the good part of the government arrange for a distribution of food to the needy. The voters need to turn off the TV and get involved with their government.

President Aleksander Lukashenko of Belarus has a great point in advocating saunas and getting out in the sun to build up the immune system and exercising. The sauna is a cleanser, get rid of the toxic crap in the pores and the sun provides natural vitamins. He is also right about the mass psychosis that has griped the entire world. To me is shows a lack of trust in their Creator. Prayer is the first and best vaccine.

Someone sent this email to me. It is just too good not to pass on.
“I talked to a man today“
I talked with a man today, an 80+ year old man. I asked him if there was anything I can get him while this Coronavirus scare was gripping America.
He simply smiled, looked away and said:
“Let me tell you what I need! I need to believe, at some point, this country my generation fought for… I need to believe this nation we handed safely to our children and their children…
I need to know this generation will quit being a bunch of sissies…that they respect what they’ve been given…that they’ve earned what others sacrificed for.”
I wasn’t sure where the conversation was going or if it was going anywhere at all. So, I sat there, quietly observing.
“You know, I was a little boy during WWII. Those were scary days. We didn’t know if we were going to be speaking English, German or Japanese at the end of the war. There was no certainty, no guarantees like Americans enjoy today.
And no home went without sacrifice or loss. Every house, up and down every street, had someone in harm’s way. Maybe their Daddy was a soldier, maybe their son was a sailor, maybe it was an uncle. Sometimes it was the whole damn family…fathers, sons, uncles…
Having someone, you love, sent off to war…it wasn’t less frightening than it is today. It was scary as Hell. If anything, it was more frightening. We didn’t have battle front news. We didn’t have email or cellphones. You sent them away and you hoped…you prayed. You may not hear from them for months, if ever. Sometimes a mother was getting her son’s letters the same day Dad was comforting her over their child’s death.
And we sacrificed. You couldn’t buy things. Everything was rationed. You were only allowed so much milk per month, only so much bread, toilet paper. EVERYTHING was restricted for the war effort. And what you weren’t using, what you didn’t need, things you threw away, they were saved and sorted for the war effort. My generation was the original recycling movement in America.
And we had viruses back then…serious viruses. Things like polio, measles, and such. It was nothing to walk to school and pass a house or two that was quarantined. We didn’t shut down our schools. We didn’t shut down our cities. We carried on, without masks, without hand sanitizer. And do you know what? We persevered. We overcame. We didn’t attack our President, we came together. We rallied around the flag for the war. Thick or thin, we were in it to win. And we would lose more boys in an hour of combat than we lose in entire wars today.”
He slowly looked away again. Maybe I saw a small tear in the corner of his eye. Then he continued:
“Today’s kids don’t know sacrifice. They think a sacrifice is not having coverage on their phone while they freely drive across the country. Today’s kids are selfish and spoiled. In my generation, we looked out for our elders. We helped out with single moms who’s husbands were either at war or dead from war. Today’s kids rush to the store, buying everything they can…no concern for anyone but themselves. It’s shameful the way Americans behave these days. None of them deserve the sacrifices their granddads made.
So, no I don’t need anything. I appreciate your offer but, I know I’ve been through worse things than this virus. But maybe I should be asking you, what can I do to help you? Do you have enough pop to get through this, enough steak? Will you be able to survive with 113 channels on your tv?”
I smiled, fighting back a tear of my own…now humbled by a man in his 80’s. All I could do was thank him for the history lesson, leave my number for emergency and leave with my ego firmly tucked in my rear.
I talked to a man today. A real man. An American man from an era long gone and forgotten. We will never understand the sacrifices. We will never fully earn their sacrifices. But we should work harder to learn about them..learn from them…to respect them.

NETWORK, Sidney Lumet, 1976 – I’m Mad As Hell and I’m Not Gonna Take This Anymore!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRuS3dxKK9U
Howard Beale (Peter Finch), an acclaimed anchor at the UBS Evening News, is put out to pasture because he too old. News division president Max Schumacher (William Holden), Howard’s best friend, is forced to deliver the decision. Beale can’t stomach the idea of losing his 25-year post as anchorman simply because of age, so in his next broadcast he announces to the viewers that he’s going to commit suicide on his final program. The network wants Beale immediately fired, but Schumacher gives him a chance to apologize on the air. What he doesn’t count on is Beale using this camera time to go off on another tirade that to everyone’s surprise resonates with the audience. Seeing an opportunity to harness Beale’s “mad as hell” energy, the head of programming, Diana Christensen (Faye Dunaway), suggests Beale be given his own show. Although Max and Diana disagree on this business proposal, they initiate a personal relationship that complicates matters further. Driven by her tireless efforts to succeed, Diana drives Max away as Beale’s show becomes more crazed. And as those working in media know, fans are fickle and when Beale’s ratings drop, Diana and the network execs cancel his show permanently.

Temple Baptist Church of Greenville, Mississippi had a drive-in prayer service this past week. Police raided, ticketing the congregants $500 each, saying the mayor wanted to make an example of the congregation.
How did the pastor respond? Did he cower? Did he apologize? Did he admit he was wrong to worship against the will of the local officials? In his words “I told them to get some more tickets ready because we will be preaching Sunday morning and Sunday night.”
Church Bravery In Louisiana
A pastor in Baton Rouge said of the members of his congregation “They would rather come to church and worship like free people than live like prisoners in their homes.” Pastor Tony Spell of Life Tabernacle Church, vowed to hold an Easter celebration.
The media in the weeks preceding Easter was vocal about the need to shut down the church, but was afterward surprisingly silent about whether the Easter service took place.
When I called the church to verify that they held an Easter service, the most distinguished sounding Southern gentleman picked up the phone and said to me matter-of-factly, “We’re Christians, we hold church every Sunday.”

Yesterday one of the nurses I work with here in Los Angeles was thrown out of a supermarket in Reseda for not having a mask on when she came into the store, as she was told. It was just after the 7am shift change. She was just coming off the night shift and decided to stop by the marketplace for food before returning to her home. She was still in her scrubs. After filling her cart with groceries she was approached by management and told she had to leave the store immediately. Also, she would not be allowed to purchase any of the items she had in her cart. After they threw her out they felt it necessary to close the store for an immediate cleaning. I don’t know what they did with the food she’d collected—can’t imagine they would have put it back on the shelf after all that but who knows. In my humble opinion, her dismissal had little to do with the lack of mask as they could have easily denied her entrance if that was a policy. She’d been in there long enough to fill a shopping cart. I believe it had more to do with her attire than anything. It used to be that working in the medical profession was a vocation worthy of a certain level of respect by your fellow countrymen. What we are beginning to see here in California is—if you are seen in public wearing hospital scrubs, congratulations, you are now filthier than a street bum or a leper. And even they don’t get that kind of treatment. It’s bad enough we are loosing our inalienable rights by the day. Shall those of us in medical world now begin to loose our civil rights as well?

Speaking of loss of freedom, I went to theRetina Center to obtain my 6 week scheduled shots in both eyes for macular generation and was confronted by an employee that told me I was required to answer questions about COVID-19 and have my temperature taken before I could be given treatment or enter the center even though I had an appointment. I refused to participate in the farce and eventually relented to the procedure to get treatment.
My wife apologized for my behavior because she flat embarrassed by my behavior. I told the center employee I felt he was violating my civil right to enter the center and obtain scheduled treatment. If this is only the beginning of the lengths the so-called authorities will go to to take away my rights I will resist any attempt to further restrict my movement ab all freedoms!!
I am being told by everyone around me to submit to authority. By what authority does anyone have domain over my inalienable right to Constitutional Freedoms.

All this is actually a fortunate situation in one sense: it exposes the global system for what it truly is: an unsustainable Ponzi Scheme sending the nations wealth to the top of the social pyramid. It shows the smoke and mirrors financial schemes for what they are. It proves to the naive the true nature of the political parties and political leaders. It exposes the world one-government globalist schemes first announced by President Bush the first in 1990. It exposes how the entire world is captive to the US petrodollar system, which has essentially enslaved the world by dollar dependency and trade sanctions. It also shows how ruthless the defensive tactics have become in enforcing unipolar world power in relation to China. And, it has shown that our Bill of Rights has become a laughing stock. It has shown how pathetic the population has become in regards to critical thinking. It has shown that censorship has been imposed for the US government through the news and social media. How about a ‘bright side’? That is this: the world economic system has already changed and much of the economic and political schemes of our governments and politicians (as well as ‘deep state’) have proven themselves to be unworkable. So there is a new dawn coming for mankind. New systems of finance and government will inevitably come with the 99% awoken, so as to eliminate many of these unjust and unsustainable systems. It has unfortunately been necessary for a crisis like coronavirus to set us on a sustainable path. Perhaps it is divinely inspired, as it was set off by an organic and biological event. Mankind now has a chance to rebuild from the bottom-up our unsustainable systemic structures. People should not overlook the opportunity thus presented.

BIG MANSIONS IN BIG SKY COUNTRY
As I look back at past real estate cycles where I have lived and remember these are very long cycles from peak to trough. For example, in California, residential real estate peaked about 1989. Its started rolling-over in the first Bush recession in 1990-1992. It kept going down for about 11 years before turning back up and then peaked again in 2006.
Now, I am not sure what the real estate cycle is or how long it will take to fully correct. I would anticipate that properties outside of a short commute to the large urban job markets ( good jobs ) or in remote, scenic but job poor rural locations will not fare well in the next 10 years. The best in class residential properties that appeal to Millineal buyer’s tastes are the ones that probably will be most marketable. Probably have to wait about 3-5 years for the prices to substantially and nobody can pick the bottom of any market.
Big Mansions in the Middle of Nowhere, Montana won’t sell, as they are “White Elephants”. Owners will have to put them out at auction to get whatever the can or sit on them indefinitely. If property taxes are low enough, then current property owners can leave them in the family trust for their heirs to manage (Legacy Ranches).
Aging Baby Boomers who bought nice rural retreats with 3,000 sq. foot houses in the 1990’s will not be able to afford to wait for the next real estate boom. In fact, one property in Dubois, Wyo. might be saleable at-cost ( it was built in 2000). Baby Boomers will be lucky to get their cost basis back when they sell. Maybe have to sell at below cost in a few years. The only direction for remote properties, even trophy ones for the next 10 years is down, down, down. This would actually make real estate a depreciating asset, not the sure bet real estate agents have used to market properties since 1950. Fewer wealthy buyers, a older population, and different generational tastes will forever change the real estate market.

We also need more passionate, outspoken, uncensored people like Gerald and lvblasiotti. When the UN talk about these sort of numbers, I question whether the slant is like “this is disturbing – we need to act to reverse this humanitarian disaster” or if they are merely informing the global public in advance of how their agenda is unfolding. Disclosure is supposedly a core principle of a ‘Satanic’ agenda, if such as thing exists. As you say – there is no reason for anyone to go hungry.

THE END GAME KICKED OFF IN 1913
On February 17, 1950, German Banker James Paul Warburg confidently declared to the United States Senate: “We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.” [1] Ja.
Most of today’s Americans do not get the financial education at home they need to find their way to true (financial) independence, according to entrepreneur and author, Robert Kiyosaki ( Rich Dad, Poor Dad ). He favors real assets and owning productive businesses, NOT traditional financial assets like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. He also likes “God’s Money” which is physical gold and silver coins. U.S. Bankers are clearly the “wolves” who predate upon whole countries and their citizens-shepple.
Its all about one’s mindset and desire to become an Independent Man. Most people are satisfied to just have a “job”, collect a paycheck, and retire on a pension ( another words, take the easy route or go with the flow ). He maintains the pension part probably won’t be there for today’s young people.
I think Robert Kiyosaki is correct. Public Employee Pensions like CALPERS will eventually become insolvent without major legislative reforms. Promised benefits won’t be paid to younger workers upon their retirement, as in all Ponzi Schemes. Fact: the money just won’t be there for long.

I am not an economist by any stretch of the imagination. In fact economics was the worst and most boring class that I took in college. However, I am somewhat of an Austrian where money is concerned and even the thought that the crooks who control our finances could get away with their crimes once again really disgusts me. Not qualified to say if he is right but Mazaheri’s theme deserves consideration.

Is anyone able to cite a major International Mafia Fund project that catalyzed serious prosperity on a major scale? It’s not a sarcastic question. I just can’t think of one. For me, the IMF has only ever been a scam to enslave impoverished nations to the global banking class. Interest bearing loans that can never be repaid. Think Argentina. Most of their money is wasted on six figure salary consultants and advisers who are flown in to tell the locals what to do. I hope that there is no famine in any country.

Welcome to the Fourth Reich of the Rich, everyone. Well, actually we’ve been there since at least 9/18/47, when the CIA was founded, and the ‘national security state’ was institutionalized. The banks had captured the US money supply in 1912 by institutionalizing he lending created money thereafter to the Federal government AT INTEREST, under the acquiescence of Woodrow Wilson, who also allowed US entry into the European War (WWI) according to banker wishes, and against the wishes of the US population, in 1916 in order to replace decrepit England as the new unipolar world power. Look back further (1863) to the Gettysburg Address, heralding America’s exceptionalism to the world after the North had its first substantial victory over the separatist South. And the Indian Wars immediately thereafter. And, to the false-flag attack on the US Maine in Cuba in 1898. And the US empire being then born. And, later to the Churchill-Roosevelt engineered Second World War. And, to the Marshall Plan post-WWII creating indebted European vassal states under its thumb to this day, and to Hiroshima bombings to announce that we were in charge of the world now and all better do what we say. Then, leading up to the Korean and Viet Nam slaughters to destroy competing communist systems. In an obscure book, “Farewell America” (1968), by author James Hepburn, it is outlined how the last real chance to stop the one-world government scheme was ended with the assassinations of JFK and RFK. Government then grew into monstrous proportions, with two essentially globalist parties of the rich (“D’s” and “R’s”) in cahoots to take American exceptionalism to a messianic stage. When one side of the Cold war (USSR) collapsed there would be no peace dividend – just a new and bigger plan to be in charge of the whole world. Psychopaths grew more sophisticated, and realized that land wars were no longer an option to reach their goals. Total control of the international economic system through “Petrodollars”, sanctions, IMF loans, high-altitude bombings, etc. would make sure the US population did not turn against their genocidal plans of world conquest, as the benefitted economically with 5% of the world population consuming 25% of the worlds resources. No draft, no protests, and no significant US casualties like the 58,000 in Viet Nam. Tired of any resistance they learned to use their media control and militaries to demonize and overthrow recalcitrant states and leaders, and enjoy control of world finance and be the chief beneficiary thereof. None of this was new, Hungarian Louis Marschalko described much of the strategies being employed in his book “The World Conquerors” (1958), and Des Griffin in 1976 describing what we see now in “The Fourth Reich of the Rich”. You can locate these and other works at the website bookfinder.com. And, some threads run to this day, like Presidents since Reagan being all on-board with the one world government announced by Bush Sr. in 1990. The media was consolidated, and the super-rich globalists then owned it 90%+ of what Americas saw in print and TV since Bill Clinton’s 1996 Telecommunications Act – they got the population to believe the consolidated media would serve the interests of the people when it served as a manipulation tool over the masses. And the Commodity Futures Act of 2000 and repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, which ended the wall between investor money and the monies used in financial games which have brought us now to the brink of collapse. Think of all the ridiculous government false flags we have seen, such as the Gulf of Tonkin incident of 8/10/64, the Pan Am 747 Lockerbie false-flag now being revealed in Scottish courts, the obvious US government, Saudi and Israeli concocted 9-11 incidents of fairy-tales and lies leading to the destruction of Israel’s enemy Iraq which had nothing to do with that, all bought hook, line and sinker by the politically naive population we had become. A dependent population on government benefits to the point where we are so easily bought-off. And, now, look what they have done. They are roughly following the same strategy employed after the illusory “free markets” they had long touted collapsed by 2009. Except, now they have tripled-down. What did not work then would now work. No lessons learned. No concessions by the banks. No real system change – Wall Street was just engineered to a 30% weekly ‘recovery’ in a locked-down world economy. How can that be real? There is no longer “free trade” or a “free market” in America, or actual capitalism. America was founded in the 1700’s, and the ideas were sound, and you can look them up in the Constitution and Bill of Rights. America was an IDEA, which was captured and altered into non-existence by international finance and the national security state. They are in control. Both were adulterated: the Bill of Rights, direct democratic governance – all by the control of our country by financiers, amendments of the Bill of Rights on the road to destruction, all attributable to the Dr. Strangelove’s of the world. So, do not think the America envisioned by the Founding Fathers still exists. A successful virtual martial law is in place, at least temporarily (freedoms are generally not restored, see the Patriot Act, etc.). How much will the 99.9% of the US population eventually own of our country? Obviously less and less. Then what???

Thanks, Greg. I scan read NPR articles from time-to-time for research – I am far from expert on NPR print articles. I got the feeling that they are very cautious on all topics and somewhat middle ground. I appreciate your comment. Next time I read NPR, I will see if I change my mind. About the article above. I am not sure why anyone would invest in the stock market given that they are all rigged. I think that Gerald has said in the past that gold at $1700 is a collapse trigger to watch. Jay

Hi Only Me,
I have been reading the Epoch Times for over a decade, in a few countries. Editions were often handed out for free in Australia at train stations when I lived there. I am not sure about now. I got the feeling that the Epoch Times had good intentions and tried to offer balanced coverage. I think there is a general perception that Epoch is staunchly anti-China to the point that any coverage about Mainland China no longer has partial credibility. I recall spending a few hours online a few years ago trying to trace the ownership of the Epoch Times, as it spends a massive amount of money of staff offices globally, and probably is a net losing enterprise. I came to a dead end on that search. Among the informed, they would probably know exactly how is the arch owner/funding source and agenda of Epoch Times. Probably Taiwanese interests. I am publishing a free book about COVID19 in a week. 100+ pages. The conclusion of this book is relevant to your question. I think it is impossible to know about COVID19: Patient Zero, Ground Zero, who/why/how. This must be one of the most prolific disinformation events of my lifetime. Makes sense – it is the mother of all global economic reset depressions. No one wants to be scapegoated or proven to be the source.

Gerald, with all due respect, Coronvirus deaths may be small in number at the moment, but the entire point is the speed at which it spreads.
If the entire world’s 2 or 3 percent population dies at once (I’m not even talking about the hospitalizations), then it’ll be mayhem.

Living in Florida with the hurricane season only a month or so away I’m wondering how we are to evacuate when most everything is shut down. Now that they have us shivering under our beds with our masks and gloves on, I suspect their going to use their new found illicit powers to forcibly evacuate us. This is going to really turn into a shit show much worse than it is now.
As for China…. I don’t think they had anything to do with releasing what amounts to a bad cold (assuming a virus actually exists) .As the US is massively lying (all deaths are now credited to covid 19) about the number of CV19 deaths I am beginning to think the US was behind this. I mean, what better of a excuse can you have when it is you that is experiencing the highest death rate.
Many that accuse the Wuhan Laboratory are forgetting the US shut down Ft Detrick last summer just before the ‘outbreak’. It has had more ‘leaks’ than Carter has liver pills. It is the US that has many Bio Weapons labs all around the world. China has one… Russia is claiming none.
They are going to blame China for the economic problems caused by them shutting down the economy. They are already talking sanctions and war. So it seems we have to be saved from the ‘virus’ but war with China and maybe Russia killing everyone is no problem. They’re gonna take us to war and the mask wearing Pod people will be all for it.

If this was an actual war, and a large percentage of the population had to die as a result, there would be mayhem, however, if the cause for which people died was a noble one, that is, to protect the freedoms and liberties of the people for which they died, then it would have been seen as a worthy battle to have died for. What then is the difference in this case? There is none. In both cases, no one wants to sacrifice themselves for the good of the whole but it is a necessary sacrifice that we as a people must make, come what may, in order that our freedom and liberty as a people is maintained. It’s highly unlikely that coronavirus is going to kill a large percentage of the population anyway, but if we keep on going the way of sacrificing our freedom and civil liberties, then it will get to the point that we will be better of dead anyway.

Real Estate isn’t the only economic sector to be destroyed by the Elite, Banksters, Bilderbergers, Oligarchs, Political party interference, Climate Change factions and Opposition to re-industrialization. The drop in the price of WTI CRUDE is a sure indication many powerful individual people and nation states are influencing the price of oil (in addition to Russia and the Saudis) to add to the pain America’s government and citizens are experiencing now. This may sound like a conspiracy theory but the price of oil is a telling indicator. What do you think is going on? I haven’t seen a statement by you regarding this trend in the oil patch.

What have we learned from the CON-Virus PLAN – Demic and the economic fall out that began WELL before it? Globalism, Centralism, does not work and centralized planned economies fail every time. Free markets (AKA Black Markets) begin at the bottom where individuals are allowed to trade their goods and services to each other freely and unhampered by the criminal middlemen: mafia or governmental mafias who strong arm them for a piece of the pie. The word is not globalism, it is LOCALISM. Every time you hear Globalism rejoin with LOCALISM. Centralism has FAILED on every level… Government, Education, Economics, so – called science, Health-Scare, etc. No competition…no progress… just totalitarianism and degradation for everyone, except the connected at the top.

This is a one-stop-shopping article that covers everything! New York is an interesting mention. Under the new emerging agriculture centric, self-sustaining economy, New Yorkers will really need to justify their existence to the nation. Under the collapsing. former fiat global scam economy, New York City and State earned trillions of dollars for the nation, which sort of justified massive unemployment ghettos that suck in massive amounts of transfer payments and produce little. I’m living in one. Speaking of trends. I think there will be a national backlash against massive neighborhoods that produce nothing, as federal, state and city budgets tighten. I agree that prices are staying low at present. However, as that reverses, more people will eat smaller meals. A thinner America. Awesome article. It belongs in a public archive.

I am still struggling to believe that Trump is shutting the economy for a political gain… Doesn’t look that way!
After all, maybe that on this one, our leaders have put health before money?
If the numbers of fatalities are low, hospitals working at more than full capacity is yet a reality in many places.
I don’t know, in the end, to me it’s like we are missing an elephant in the room when we look at fatalities against the response. Help!

HOUSE OF CARDS
Economist Martin A. Armstrong’s fourth letter to President Trump. His forecasts are indeed dire: A recession lasting into 2022 and the real prospect of continued national economic decline into 2032 A.D. Another words, we may never fully recover in real terms from this corona virus pandemic panic and continued shutdowns. Small business is “toast”, as things now stand. We are destroying our economy and the tax base that supports government at the same time.
Martin Armstrong also says the interim stimulus measures recently passed by Congress and the FED will not change the downward economic trend which he attributes to massive deleveraging in the economy. Inflation is not possible for long with such a strong deflationary trend. Most asset classes are going to be reduced in value over the next few years. In addition, spot shortages may develop, especially common food and grocery items due to producer cutbacks. Notice Toilet Paper has a higher value than most anything else, as most grocery stores are barely able to stock any T.P.

Some interesting stats here. Not surprising that Best Buy are in trouble. Their margins must be razor thin. This great chain competes well in an online global market. Somehow offers great customer service and low prices in an online world. America will be much better off if many of these lost jobs in retail transition into a domestic powerhouse manufacturing economy. If stores hoarding cash pretend they cannot pay rent, this suggests that we may transition into another deceitful me, me, me economy. History repeats.

This industry requires mammoth reform, beyond words. It is insane that many basketball and football coaches at college earn more than double than their college President. Good luck to them. The long term trend during the “best economy ever” didn’t stop mass closures and mergers of prestigious Liberal Arts colleges. The collapse of this college sector will only worsen, before it reforms. It will be interesting to see how many of these career academics can reinvent themselves in a world where manufacturing and agriculture may have more prestige than the fading Ivory Tower. Experiential learning may become more common. An interesting article this one.

Over 70% Americans are overweight/obese/morbidly obese. Many normal weight have metabolic syndrome. All total around 90% are metabolically unhealthy. High carb, seed oils (soybean) and junk food diet are the cause of our very bad health. The government, AMA, ADA, AHA, etc. food guidelines are completely wrong and have caused this chronic illness epidemic. The ADA still promotes a fair amount carbs for diabetics. Most MDs are overweight/obese themselves and do not have a clue.

In most cases in this article where a percent is shown as a decimal it is 100 times too small. In one case it is 100 times too large. eg: 100,000 dead from the virus out of a global population of 7.7 billion (0.13 percent) — this should have been 0.0013 percent. A simple formula for calculating a percentage is “sample * 100 / total”. I just found this distracting from otherwise great information.

“The oil and gas industry has long had a love-hate relationship with regulation. When times are good, producers complain about government meddling in their business; when times are bad, producers want regulators to save them.” Perfecto – I could not have said it better. Does anyone know the true owner/creator of the Bitcoin spy racket scam? I question if the oil industry is being set up for a controlled demolition. Something about new patents being released – free energy, electric vehicles. This is generally considered ‘pie in the sky’ among mainstream commentators – among the few who dare to mention it.
The great quote above – could apply to a lot of industries. Banking is a classic.

Speaking of attorneys. Lawyers are important and play a critical role in a just society. However there are far too many attorneys in America that have created a litigate, parasite class that suck the blood dry from the base. CNN growth is disturbing, even if it is partly due to the lock down and partly due to the election cycle. CNN radio waves are designed to depress and demoralize its audience. It is toxic even in tiny doses.

Broke
Due to the global crisis
I can’t afford rizlas
I have no ganja either, aman*
It would really hit the spot

Why did I grow up in this backwater*
Where you can’t say out loud that you’re different
And why has there always been a gridlock here
I can’t understand this
How come nobody here ever has a clue
And now it’s worse than ever, if only
We thought about it in time now it wouldn’t be too late
I can’t understand this
I have no money, lend me some
Or at least be my guarantor
I’m getting squeezed on all sides
I need help from friends
The bank won’t give me a loan
They’ll leave me to suffer
Expensive electricity, expensive food
Rent for the flat
How can I get to drive something sharp instead of this trashcan
I ruined my back, the seat is too small
My air conditioning is Toshiba*, no glass in the right-hand window
How do I change this
I have no money, lend me some
Or at least be my guarantor
I’m getting squeezed on all sides
I need help from friends
The bank won’t give me a loan
They’ll leave me to suffer
I’m a broke good-for-nothing
To me, a Mark* is like a baking tin
Due to the global crisis
I can’t afford rizlas
I have no ganja either, aman
It would really hit the spot
Due to the global crisis

I have no ganja either, aman
It would really hit the spot

When all is said and done, this weapon of mass deception will cause so much damage, that the very survival of our civilization is at stake. It cannot be understated that the economic damage being done here in California is suicidal. I have a good friend who for years has bought wine from some of the nicest wineries in Northern California. When this all started, he called to see if they would give him a discount, knowing that they were under pressure. Being an incredibly successful business, of course they said no. A few weeks later, with inventories piling up, and restaurants closed all over the world, they gave him a shocking 40% off. The wine industry, the oil industry, the restaurant industry, the entertainment industry, and soon the public sector will all be destroyed. These are literally crimes against humanity, and with God’s help may these criminals be brought to justice.

The ‘Ivory Tower’ boys have had it coming for a long time. They live in a fantasy world supported by a vampire system that is wired to suck the life savings out of every family that walks their kid through the door. Okay, life is about choices but do the families really have them? Why is it so ridiculously expensive? ‘Jericho’ hit on another college scam where the athletic program is really a development squad for professional sports. This industry has lost its way from just “giving a good education”. In the end, the current system is unsustainable and market forces will inevitably bring about badly needed change.

I just want to add one more thing tonight. I truly hope that my fellow Americans have begun to read the Constitution. One part of it stands out to me that could be and should be a way out of this: It is utterly unconstitutional for an elected representative to enrich themselves in office. Since the fact of the matter is that all of them can be proven in a court of law to enrich themselves since they entered office, shouldn’t citizens get together and sue them in court and demonstrate through public records that they have violated the supreme law of the land?

THE “MALLEABLE” AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS
I agree, we have obedient but cowardly State level politicians running the show in Amerika. They are examples of the so-called “useful idiots”, so often employed by communists prior to full-on takeovers. As long as you can write what you want you still have a modicum of personal freedom left but for how long? Many voters and other Americans are basically weak-minded individuals who shun self expression or speaking-up for themselves. The “Silent Majority” is really the cowardly majority who go with the flow (the crowd ), be it to the right or nowadays- to the Left. The typical suburban homeowner in America is quite “malleable”.

My gunsmith jokingly said that the zombie apocalypse begins 3 days after people run out of food when the more violent and likely least prepared come to your house looking for it. I would contend that the American character is profoundly different than during the great depression when the nuclear and extended family was the norm, and the population was by in large religious. I’m sure that the welfare state will continue, but I’m not sure if the trillions in fiat money pumped it will cause hyperinflation making welfare money inadequate for the essentials. Is anyone out there still laughing at those silly preppers with their guns and food, or the mormons who require their people to have survival materials saved? Remember the great job the government did with Katrina and more recently Puerto Rico? If it really hits the fan, will the police come to your aid, or will they be home protecting their own?

Have you ever noticed what a fearful mentality Americans are morphing into? First we have the water-sippers, those who can’t sit through a church sermon or Dr visit without sip sip sipping on their water bottles, or the new good-by phrase of “stay safe”.

In line with Gerald’s comments on “they bring you to war”, there is nothing new historically, at least since the Great Depression of the 1930’s to our present plight. Most people don’t realize that the Great Depression lasted long as long as it did. It stretched on past 1938 in actuality. FDR had then been President over 6 years, and while the New Deal gave America hope, it wasn’t solving the problem. What to do? Simple, abandon our policy of neutrality and begin supplying Britain with naval destroyers and other military aid through the Lend-Lease Act, effectively aligning with the UK against the “aggressor state” Germany. August 14, 1941 the UK and US issued an “Atlantic Charter” setting goals for AFTER the Second World War, cementing alliance, and now waiting for a spark, destined to occur. Meanwhile FDR imposed an oil embargo on Japan to stifle their imperial ambitions, on which the Japanese side concluded war as an inevitability. July 26, 1941 the total oil embargo and freeze of Japanese assets in the US was effectuated. The Japanese government sought a compromise, appealing to Secretary of State Welles, who stated that there was to be no compromise. Thus, the policy to this day of the US becoming the “policeman of the world”, throwing away our historical policy of neutrality in foreign affairs. Now FDR and Churchill sat back and awaited the sparks to ignite their war. Pearl Harbor was to order. Japan and Germany felt that they had no choice but to go to war on the US and UK. All of this is described in Harry Elmer Barnes’ “Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace” (1953). Fast forward to Chalmers Johnson’s “Nemesis” (2006) where he states that the cause of America’s downfall began with the same militaristic thinking that got us into WWII (and Korea and Viet Nam, as well), and has now been announced that the US is on the verge of open warfare with Iran (Trump: “shoot down and destroy” order a few days ago). Recall the foolish revelation by General Wesley Clark in 2007 of the a secret policy “…to take out 7 countries in 5 years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and, finishing off, Iran” (see transcript from the Democracy Now Amy Goodman show). What have we seen? Chalmers Johnson also foresaw the end of constitutional government in the United States. We can see this on the non-stop attempts at the destruction of Donald Trump, who differed with the controlling globalist majority of both political parties, and with a gradual destruction of the rights of Americans enshrined in the Bill of Rights. Who but a greedy power-hungry psychopath would want to be a politician nowadays? Johnson goes onto describe the then necessary to the powers to be’s tactics of disinformation and lying, now seen in our cables news and major press organs, all under the influence of our intelligence services. All this leading to a Gatsby-esque society of those that ‘go along to get along’, and finally to our present financial and moral bankruptcy as a nation. How to resolve this? Direct democracy is the only way, Johnson stated – not the present oligarchy of divine psychopaths and our financialized criminal protection artistry in place now, but replacement by some kind of honest money and true democracy to replace the doomed messes we have now. Idea: make peace with Russia and China and employ their massive gold reserves in establishing a commodity-backed world currency. We would need to drop the “world policeman” role and allow sovereign nations to live in peace. The character of the American people in pursuing a national ‘American Dream’ policy coupled with peace with other nations, rather than economically strangling them, and cooperating, rather than viciously competing with and threatening them, eliminating war as a means of dominance. We can all see that clearly now, end especially later when the economic model we utilize now will show itself to an even greater failure. Cooperation – not bullying. And, a real democracy good people will then aspire to lead. Without true systemic change, we are as doomed as the lost super-powers of the past. “Kick the Can” will not work any longer, and even if it did only temporarily, we scourge future generations further.

The observation about storage space is perceptive and a strongly relevant indicator. Let’s salute the many migrants in America who do the hard yakka on the construction sites – laboring and trades. They work hard and many may be unable to feed their families. A lot of people would end up in hospital from a broken back if they tried to do this sort of work for just a day. Real estate is one to watch for sure. Unless there are deep statutory moratoriums enacted, and soon on foreclosures, 50+ million may be homeless before the New Year.

May the authorities learn from Hurricane Katrina and the LA Riots of 1992. I can still see images of a lone policeman in the hood in New Orleans, holding a revolver, as dozens around him looted and he just stood still. If he wasn’t there, there may have been violence. This trend is disturbing. Whatever others do, let’s hope that none of us engage in these last resorts scenarios. At home may be the safest place.

Jay, here in Indiana we have 18,500 lawyers with a population of about 6.5 million. They all seem to advertise on Jerry Springer. Personally I’m a political atheist as Mr. Celente describes himself. I do my best to view opinions dispassionately and objectively despite my conservative leanings. That said, I do try to catch CNN every few days. I usually end up wondering if anyone is stupid enough to believe the bullshit spewing from them. . . but I have several relatives to verify that indeed people do listen, believe and obey. Leftist movements are generally developed by concentrating on and inflaming the passions of those who perceive themselves rightfully or wrongly as disenfranchised and abused. Those individuals never seem to appreciate that they’re being used as useful idiots. I am amazed at the left’s ability to organize and speak with a single voice. It’s obvious that they get their talking points daily from somewhere. Somewhere along the line the Democrats and their minions abandoned the party of John Kennedy and embraced Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals”; Hillary’s mentor. My fear is that they will successfully pin the evolving disaster on President Trump. This does scare me with November coming up.

Dave from LA…Have always enjoyed reading your posts for their insight and for the gentleness with which your ideas are conveyed. Humantiy’s way out of the present dilemma is not going to be an easy one. Is the present crisis of greed and corruption as easily fixed as we think? Is it as simple for example, as people reading the constitution and then grouping together to sue those who are not acting in accordance? I don’t think it is. Even the best informed on the constitution are powerless to persuade those who are guilty of not abiding by it that they are breaking the law. The reason is not an inability to persuade and use reasoned argument, it’s the fact that those who are guilty don’t choose to listen regardless. Also, suppose that we had a large group of people who were able to voice out their frustration using reasoned argument at the criminality of those who violate the constitution, then again those who are guilty would simply censor and shut down and refuse to listen because such is their nature. And even suppose that with such a large group of men and women brave in the fight against the powers that be and the corruption they are guilty of, even this I believe would fail to bring them down and even if it did succeed, the success would likely be temporary only. Suppose an irrate tireless minority were able to set brushfires of freedom in the minds of men, and then suppose you have a corrupt system that refuses to budge, what would be the consequence of this? Would not rebel leaders arise and rebellions take place and much bloodshed result as in the American civil war until perhaps a new country and a new law could be established? Firstly, let’s hope that such rebel leaders do not turn out to be worse tyrants than the ones we have already because be assured that power, when it enters the hands of individuals, can corrupt them very easily, especially if they are not virtuous, but again suppose they do not turn out to be tyrants and it is a successful rebellion in the truest sense, the change that would result is likely only to be temporary. Why? Because like the American civil war, when it ended, a system was set up by the victors in such a way as to learn from the mistakes of the past and refine those mistakes thus creating a better system. However, the new system was still based on the past, perhaps not in the same way, but there was an Administrative, Executive and Legislative branch of government, there was a president, there was a constitution, a free market, etc, but these no matter how noble the intentions of those who instituted them and no matter how perfect, was still destined to fail. Even though such a system starts off as fair, it will always degenerate into some sort of chaos such as the one we have now due to the fact that the liberty that the founding fathers and others fought for in the American Civil war occurred in a manner that was unfavorable to the maintenance of liberty itself. The liberty that was won was won with guns, battles, through fighting and violence and consequently, the maintenance of such liberty can only be achieved through the same means otherwise it will be overtaken and lost. Such is the predicament that we all now find ourselves in and it is now impossible to achieve a victory for liberty through the same means for we are outdone, perhaps not in numbers but in fire power and degree of technology. Such a move is senseless. But perhaps this is the reason that Christ died for us on the cross. Perhaps he knew that this was the path he had to take, that any other path out of the dilemma he found himself in would lead to chaos and bloodshed. Who of us wants to die? No one. It goes against the very principle of our innate need for self preservation and attachment to ourselves. The choice Christ chose was a sensible and rational one for himself however, as the self preservation of his body was impossible without sacrificing those of others and that therefore the only thing at that point that he could preserve was his integrity and honor in the eyes of God after having been abandoned by all. Is this the very essence of liberty perhaps, that to be free is to choose to do what is noble regardless of our innate desire towards self preservation, whether it be the preservation of our honor in the eyes of men, or the preservation of our homes, or even of our bodies?

No one answers the telephone. The rules keep changing. The frustration gets more intense. The small business owners are taking out their frustration on their accountants who can’t make any headway and who are not used to govt red tape and make work delays. Pres. Trump in his efforts to drain the swamp should have started with the Senior Executive Service (SES). He should have identified those who don’t do their job and fired them. Many of them are politicians who have wormed their way into these SES positions but could not manage their way out of a corporate paper bag. Most of them are dumbocrats and liberal rhinos who are working against him and the cleansing process which is longggggg overdue. The last thing they want is limited govt. They just love that bloated bureaucracy. To them it is just like snuggling up to a nice warm and fuzzy teddy bear. They don’t give two hoots about the taxpayers. We are there to serve them even though we mistakenly think they are serving us. Ha! Ha! The joke is on us. It is at every level of govt, i.e., fed, state, county, town. The SES’s are the managers, they set the pace. The workers just fall in line and follow the party line. The managers at the state, county and town levels are same, i.e., idiots with a bag full of excuses for non-performance.

Inversion: The Crucial Thinking Skill Nobody Ever Taught You
The ancient Stoic philosophers like Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus regularly conducted an exercise known as a premeditatio malorum, which translates to a “premeditation of evils.”
The goal of this exercise was to envision the negative things that could happen in life. For example, the Stoics would imagine what it would be like to lose their job and become homeless or to suffer an injury and become paralyzed or to have their reputation ruined and lose their status in society.

In the context of the issues discussed in this article, it is rare to see people frame this charade as a crippling decoupling of the American economy from China. This is rarely discussed in mainstream media. China don’t want to sell American stuff to America unless we pay them in stuff that actually exists. Like gold. America wants to play the old game. Pay via keyboard generated credits. Also known as USD, the reserve currency. So both sides need to restructure their economy to decouple. Of course this is hard to prove given that mainstream fake news media don’t report on behind-the-scenes high level power plays.

I am not sure how true this account is. Like anything really.

Even though it may seem counter-intuitive, the homeless are less likely to die from Covid than general population. On average, they have much stronger immune system because they are subjected to dirt and outside elements on a daily basis. This is also the reason why probably won’t be many Covid deaths in India, Africa and other really poor countries – the people there are continually surviving much worse diseases (malaria, cholera, typhoid, you get the picture), so this one is like a commond cold for them.

I spent the week triaging ER arrivals for a facility in metropolitan PA. The way they had it set up potential Covid patients went to one part of the facility and everybody else went to another part. Many of the Covids we saw did turn up positive. I am confirming what Gerald has said regarding the people becoming critically ill with this virus. Nearly everyone I saw was over the age of 70 or were morbidly obese. Additionally, a startling amount of the crowd I was sending to the non-Covid side were admitting themselves related to depression and suicidal ideation—they are out of work, out of meds, and ready to end it. It’s an easy prediction to anticipate the coming need for psychiatric care will blow way past the need for Covid-related care. Our poor people. We don’t deserve much but even we don’t deserve this.

Was reading Eusebius’ ” The Church History” on the ” Fall of Jerusalem” as witnessed by Jewish/ Roman Historian Josephus. Ominous, Gangs formed and were terrorizing the populace, pillaging for food, murder, etc. Also, Cannibalism was mentioned in a particularly horrific case. All humanity lost. Rich and poor suffered together.
The world’s largest genocide occurred in the Ukraine. The Holodomor was planned by Stalin carried out by Genrikh Yagoda murdered 10 million plus. People eating whatever they could find, including rats, people going mad, and stories of cannibalism. All humanity lost.

Vaccines are dangerous enough when they take their time to prepare them “properly” (joke). Can you imagine the fallout from a rushed vaccine? Remember AZT ? A failed Cancer drug they rushed to use (experiment) on victims of HIV/AIDs. It is believed by some to have caused Arthur Ashe’s untimely death, not the supposed HIV/AIDs fraud.
I suggest that all vaccines should be tried on Bill and Melinda Gates and their supporters, CFR members, main stream media celebrities, entertainment moguls, politicians, bankers, insurance CEOs, CDC employees, WHO heads, and their families first. Then after the results are in then ” offer” to the general public for their consideration.

What we are witnessing is a race to November to see which party, and which overall policy direction – globalism or nationalism – will prevail. In order to attempt to reach a successful conclusion for one of these factions, we are seeing two forces in play: those willing to destroy the American and world economy in order to get the voters to support a regime change, and those attempting to have our phony and corrupt system as again be considered ‘successful’, with both factions hoping that result being that they will be in control after the November election, and that they could then engineer yet another ‘recovery’. Behind all this are the usual suspects – greedy power hungry billionaires and demented psychopaths who hope to profit from all this. As is typical, the American population lacks any political awareness of how this is all being played out – trusting, as usual, that those in control could not possibly be so evil. Yuk-Yuk. The majority of the population seems to believe that the economic situation will all be resolved favorably once the coronavirus crisis theoretically passes, and the economy regains ‘normality’. The trouble is that post coronavirus pandemic (if that actually occurs) will expose the destitution of a significant portion of the ‘little people’ of America, once the loans are spent, checks are cashed and spent, and individual business and personal debt begins to outpace income generation of small business and individuals, and demand inevitably collapses in the consumer economy. Bail-out loans being temporary, in the long term you can’t have the majority of the population failing individually while at the same time attempting to regain an illusion of ‘recovery’. Ultimately, we have not truly recovered from the 2009 crash, and the overall decline will continue, despite the fictions we are told. All this will lead to further consolidation of small business into the large businesses, and increased poverty in the general population, then leading to decreased tax revenues in the states, who can’t print money and must balance their books. End result: we will soon find the reality – that a ‘return to normal’ will incrementally result in a substantial reduction in America’s standard of living. What then a great opportunity for a third political party in the US.

In a world of fake news, fake elite university research, fake government data and fake NGOs, it is hard to know what/who to trust. Surveys like 65% – it’s hard to know if it contained leading questions. Most people may take a vaccine if it becomes too hard not to. Like if certain states confiscate drivers licenses of those without a vaccination passport. Something bigger must be up. Like a massive economic reset and/or preparations for a potential (or known) war. Most likely several complex factors are unfolding in real-time: deep state resistance to Trump, clashes with China, economic reset, bio attack in China that spread, opportunistic exaggerated response etc.

Any kind of political reform will ultimately fail to solve our economic and human problems. Even if honest men got into politics to uphold the law, and even if old laws that were repealed were once again reinstated, such as the Sherman antitrust act and the Robinson-Patman act, ultimately how could we guard against such honest men from being voted out of office? Wherever there is money there is the potential for corruption and sooner or later this will take effect as it always does. We have reached an a point on our evolutionary path whereby to continue along in the same way as the past, that is, along the path of a dominance hierarchy that is based on a greed, competition and self preservation, no longer makes any sense. Throughout history we have always tried to do things better, to refine and correct the processes of the past to make better the future, that is, to eradicate as much future potential evil as possible. Well, where to now? As long as we persist with the same social structure we cannot evolve. A major problem is that as humans, particularly in the west which has been the dominant culture, have been indoctrinated into this kind of dominance hierarchical way of organising ourselves as to think that it is the only possible social structure. Many foolishly assumed that the west because of its dominance over other indigenous cultures, therefore had the superior social structure. This is a conclusion which is now coming to bite them on the rear end as the point that has been reached by such a system has become unsustainable. To evolve therefore it is imperative to break free from such beliefs we have been indoctrinated into and to think differently about what it means to be free and what it means to live with peace and happiness. We have to go back and ask some of these basic questions again to find out what is relevant to man.

For the purpose of moving society forward into a better direction, i’m beginning to think that our collective wisdom is a more important virtue than our collective courage. Yes, we need society to be courageous in order to instigate change, but we more importantly need wisdom to understand what change to make. How can we ensure that the mistakes of the past are not going to be repeated? How can we guard ourselves against tyrants rising to power? The only way to deal with any tyrant is with courage and even a society ruled by a group of technocrats is tyrannical in its control. They have a vision and promise to lead us to greener pastures, but with if that doesn’t coincide with our vision. Where do we go? And what if everyone else has a different vision as well. What we end up with is a clash of visions and not much agreement on anything. So in the end, most people end up saying, stuff this shit, you guys do what you want, i’m doing my own thing, i’ll tell you what the implications of what your planning to do are, if you’re a Gerald Celente for example.
How does capitalism work for example, and what are the consequences of capitalism beyond a countries borders, that is, global capitalism? How for example, are mergers and acquisitions, that is, a larger company swallowing up another smaller company, any different than a large nation swallowing up a smaller nation and aren’t imposed sanctions just a measure taken to facilitate this? In other words, the state becomes just an extension of the market. Is this not a case of a nations economic ideology extending beyond its own borders? If so then does this not mean that we should go back and completely revisit this notion of capitalism itself and is fixing capitalism really a good solution?

Martin Luther King was MURDERED after he called for the people to amass in Washington D.C. : to insist on wage increases, so as not to work full time, yet live in poverty; just as even more do now! But, instead of more money, now the bankers increased your credit, in other words – DEBT! Too, we now have many more women working, more credit and thus; debt, interest to the White Shoe Boys Club. I am calling on the people to hit the streets! Many have no job to go to now thanks to the Democrats and Republicans Stupid ! Not the Virus! The globalist Banker minions, in government and corporations (what is the difference?- Global Fascist Corporatism) here and abroad, are afraid of the people!!! Unless “we, the people” rise to this task, the sheep will lose; actually already have. State capitals would work for addressing our grievances too, but the masses, more importantly should encircle the U.N., Council of Foreign Relations,,the supreme court (small case, as it is written in the U.S. Constitution), Department of “Just-us”, Federal Reserve, the C.I.A., and the Pentagon; the heart of a pentagram, I.R.S. etc… These “folks” have family and homes also, do more than show them a picture of their loved ones! The enemy is within. The government debt is actually the debt of “The U.S.A. Inc.” Yes, what is known as the U.S. Government is a corporation! Your State, most County and City rulers too! County and Cities governments are not law makers! They dictate ordinances and rules! P.S. How about re-assigning the acronym MIAC to Military, Intelligence, Academic, Complex ? PPS. Where is the Gold? Yes, I have a little bit, G.C I presume more, but where is the 2/3rd of the known gold formerly held in Ft. Knox circa1953? PPSS.

Below is part of an email I received today with a link to a video done by Jeff Berwick of “The Dollar Vigilante.”
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Here Comes the Mass Vaccinations, Gun Control Laws, Depression and Famines… Thanks Rockefeller
150 years ago, you didn’t have to ask the government for permission to own property, start a business, build a home, own a gun, sell or buy food, protest…or even prospect for gold. (Even fool’s gold…more about that in the video).
The thing with losing freedom and self-autonomy – and money – is that it rarely happens suddenly. If a frog is placed into a pot of boiling water it will immediately try to jump out; but if it’s placed into a pot of cool water that’s gradually heated until boiling, it will stay put and never try to jump out.
Many people don’t even realize they’re bankrupt until they already are. And then once it’s happened you are overwhelmed and powerless to stop it or change it.
That’s exactly how freedoms have been eroding over the past few decades in so-called free societies like Canada and the US. Just a few weeks ago, you made plans to travel, to retire, to buy property, to be promoted.
Suddenly, without any violent struggle or contest, you have given up your fundamental human rights to freedom of movement, opinion, expression, and assembly.
Suddenly, you are told your job isn’t essential.
Suddenly, you are told you must submit you and your children’s bodies to experimental tracking chips and vaccines – or lose these rights forever.
Suddenly, and completely out of the blue, you find yourself living in a bizarre, fantastical world where you, previously a sovereign individual, are locked up like a sheep, while governments around the world shut down their economies.
Only you see, it’s not sudden at all. It’s been planned for over a decade and there have been a lot of warning signs, but only if you were alert to the masses of propaganda and mind control that have been exercised openly and blatantly in the media, movies, TV, events – you name it. Contemptuously you might say…
But hey, I’ve been saying it for about ten years, so it’s not all that sudden.
Judging by how people all over the world have come to accept major restrictions to their civil liberties without much of a struggle, I’m wondering what’s happened to mankind? People tell the truth, no one listens. Then a few more speak out. And a few more. But because many aren’t affected they stay silent. And by not sharing the truth, such as this video or blog, you are forfeiting your own rights, those of your children, and those of people around the world who are scheduled for execution by Covid-19 – only it won’t be death by virus, but by famine.

Below is the text of an email that I received from The Dollar Vigilante today:
NWO Is Here!
Kill Gates Patents Human Slavery Mark of the Beast System with Patent #666
In most of the dystopian movies ever made, there’s an ‘us’ and a ‘them’. An elite and a working- or slave class. Hell, you don’t even have to go to Sci-Fi, you can see it in plain old children’s animation like A Bug’s Life.
Also in most of these “pretend” futures, the proles are usually chipped so their controllers can track their every move; ensure they do what they’re supposed to do when they’re scheduled to do it and prevent them from rising up against the system.
(Of course, this is all part of the new world order’s predictive programming, but that’s another video altogether)
The media and its masters have heavily mocked and sneered at “conspiracy” predictions from those who have been predicting that the elite are just waiting for the right moment to roll out their ‘mark of the beast’ technology to remotely identify and control every single human being on the planet, thus sealing their plans for a one-world government.
FACT: On 4 April 2020 Bill Gates states that mass public gatherings will not come back “at all” until we have mass vaccination.
FACT: MIT is working on a “quantum tattoo” that will mark you with an invisible identifier while also delivering a vaccine…at Bill Gates’ direction and funded first and foremost by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
FACT: In the Book of Revelation [13:16-17], written about 2000 years ago, the Bible warned us about being branded with an ID code: “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark…”
FACT: Microsoft owns International patent #060606 (#666) which is a cryptocurrency system using humans who have been chipped as the “Miners”.
As we are drowned by the sheer millions of numbers of virus data spewed out daily by the propaganda machine, people are anxiously waiting to line up for their chip, willing to do just about anything to get some sense of normalcy back in their lives.
I unpack my evidence for saying the coronavirus is being used as a cover for a new, digital financial system, complete with a forced vaccine/nanochip which will create a full, individual, digital identity. (He is referring to the video below.)
Watch the video below to see why people being monitored full time and working to create a unified digital currency for Bill Gates and his ilk are not a joke or a theory, but a reality. All under the auspice of preventing large groups of infectious humans from assembling…
It’s the ultimate catch 22: Don’t get the vaccine – lose your freedom. Get the vaccine – lose your freedom. But one thing is certain, once you give up rights to your body, the government owns you.
What can we do?
Collectively, we can stand up. Like this video, share it, talk about it.
Nothing powerful comes easily. Even an erupting volcano requires magma to rise through weaknesses in the Earth’s crust to create enough pressure to be released and ultimately explode for the volcanic eruption to occur. When we put pressure on a system that seems stable and untouchable, even that, too, can fall.

msparre… The enemy is within, you are right friend, let’s be patient and keep a cool head. What you’re proposing will only lead to violence, it won’t solve anything. The battle for liberty can no longer be won with weapons. It’s a spiritual battle. And that’s not cowardice, it’s the truth and that sometimes requires great courage to confront as well. We need to find a different way to encircle our external enemies, I recognise the importance of that as well, but it must be a new way, one that’s done with wit and charm.

To quote Thomas Sowell: “There are no solutions, only trade-offs.” Leave the economy open, some people are going to die from the virus. Quarantine, effectively closing the economy, people are going to die from suicide, higher mortality rates, etc. Which option is less detrimental to society? I think it’s the former, personally, especially if we continue to take precautions like masks, social distancing, and etc.

“No people will tamely surrender their liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is
diffused and virtue is preserved. On the contrary, when people are universally ignorant, and debauched
in their manners, they will sink under their own weight without the aid of foreign invaders.”
———-Samuel Adams
[Samuel Adams (September 27, 1722 – October 2, 1803) was an American statesman, political philosopher, and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. He was a politician in colonial Massachusetts, a leader of the movement that became the American Revolution, and one of the architects of the principles of American republicanism that shaped the political culture of the United States. He was a second cousin to his fellow Founding Father, President John Adams. (Wikipedia)]
OUR IMMORAL (ignorant and debauched) SOCIETY IS SINKING UNDER IT’S OWN WEIGHT.
The people in our culture are being brainwashed by the evil cult (cabal, one worlders, globalists, etc.) that make up the Pyramid of Power.

I have a relative who operates cranes at the Bakker and for the last 60 days, all he has been doing is deconstruct the drilling derricks and capping the fracked Wells. Since there is no demand for the oil, the Wells are being idled for the foreseeable future.
A clue is the latest statement by the Secretary General of the UN, Director of the WHO, So-called Progressive Politicians (Political Psycopaths) who want to.abandon the current energy path the modern states were built on and move expeditiously to GREEN ECONOMY even though they have no idea how that is accomplished and it’s costs!!!

All polls are highly subjective!! Personally, I refuse to take vaccinations or advocate for them. I managed to gain remission from bladder cancer, kidney cancer, a split in my aorta Requiring a stent and a enlargement in mY abdomen requiring a stent. I attribute the recoveries from all these medical anomalies to a move to a better health condition and natural foods and diet. I quit smoking, eat non-GMO foods and avoid all processed and fast foods.
As far as vaccinations go I refuse to participate!!!

I agree. With so many parents being forced into unemployment and into staying home with their children this will lead to more involvement by parents in what their children learn and do.
Parents naturally want the best for their children. They will be gradually steering their children toward the books that develop their children’s abilities and talents. This will lead to so many unexpected and wonderful things eventually that the political class is not expecting. This quarantining episode will lead to a strengthening of the family and a deepening respect and love that children will once again learn to have for their parents. Parents will realize that handing their children off to an indoctrinating academia is not in their children’s best interest…or societies…and this will lead to an unraveling of the power that universities have been able to attain over our children. Paradoxically, even though they are moving us town Socialism, I think the seeds are being planted within communities throughout the country that will eventually unravel it.
We shall see.

The rehiring process is a sharp observation. Many retrenched workers won’t be immediately available to take up their old job. Some may change life courses, others have started new jobs or moved back home; etc. This is merely one example of disruptive, time-consuming processes required to restart a new business and train new workers and redeploy those re-hired. In addition to rewriting labor contracts, reconsidering affordable wages, hours and conditions. In an nutshell – a complex mess, looking at just that issue.

Great to see articles about growth industries. This exciting development is under reported in the fake news media. Even during the Greatest Depression, some industries and chains will boom. Gardening supplies and Dollar Tree stores may be an example. Dollar Tree may change its name to $3 Tree next year. I am convinced that this chain is government subsidized.

DOES THE U.S. MILITARY ( NAVY ) LACK RESOLVE ?
General John Hyten says the U.S. Navy in the Persian Gulf is free to defend itself if it encounters a “hostile act” and if they see “hostile intent”. I think these guys are pacifists more worried about P.R. back home than military operations in a hostile and unstable world. Their terminology seems quite tortured, as well. Let me explain.
Are we talking here about the use of “deadly force” against an assailant in Civilian terms at home in the United States or are we discussing the use of force by the military in a war zone? The fact we no longer formerly declare wars ( in Congress) first seemingly has put our military in a sort of gray zone where their actions are subject to public review. Leadership which “smokes but does not inhale” type of situation.
One of the “probable cause” elements in civilian society used to trigger the legitimate use of a weapon is the overt presence of a weapon by the assailant. Once you have visual validation, you do not need a stop sign. The same logic should apply to the U.S. Navy when being accosted by small Iranian speedboats outfitted with 50 Cal. Machine guns. The fact these Iranian speed boats are armed and approaching ostensibly superior U.S. Naval vessels on maneuver should be all that is required to respond with force. Instead, we do everything in our power to avoid a confrontation.
Just remember in civil society, an armed citizen or private security officer has no “duty to act” but the police most certainly do whenever they observe a criminal act. The same duty to act applies to the Officers and Vessel Captains in the U.S. Navy. The only caveat would be we should not be seen as the aggressor ( again, this applies to private persons in civil society at home).
My view is we should not be tempting fate by intentionally entering internationally acknowledged territorial waters of another nation. If we are in international waters and challenged, then we should fire at will. The enemy would either retreat and come back with a “bigger gun” or the nonsense would stop forthwith.
Personally, I see NO reason in the world why U.S. Naval vessels need to be “playing chicken” with small, lightly armed Iranian speedboats. By so doing, we endanger the crew members of our Navy while in foreign waters. Never fight someone on their terms, only our terms. Play to win or do not play at all. In that case, its best to take your marbles and go home.

WHO ARE THE REAL OIL VILLAINS ?
The hoarding of oil by major companies happened in the early seventies after the “Arab Oil Embargo” in 1973. First, there were reports of oil tankers sitting offshore because there was no demand or way to unload their cargo of crude. In addition, oil companies operating in the Uintah Basin of Northern Utah had capped many of their wells, according to a employee at Major Oil Refinery in Roosevelt, Utah ( Oct 1973). It would appear that the shortage of oil was augmented by the large U.S. Oil producers back in the early seventies, making the gasoline shortages that much more acute for the general public.

April 29, 2020 Craig Bradley
WHY NOT A PLACEBO ?
The placebo effect has been scientifically and medically proven to be effective with a large number of patients compared to the real vaccine. So, in 6 months, launch a national advertising campaign that a magic Corid-19 Vaccine has been discovered or developed and will soon be available at your local pharmacy or physician’s office. If you are on Medicare, I would assume the government will pay for it all, as they currently do for pneumonia vaccines. This would result in restored public confidence in their government instead of the opposite today where confidence in government is caving-in at a very accelerated rate.

When Money Dies: The Nightmare of Deficit Spending, Devaluation, and Hyperinflation in Weimar Germany Paperback – October 12, 2010 by Adam Fergusson (Author) available at Amazon
Quote:
When Money Dies is the classic history of what happens when a nation’s currency depreciates beyond recovery. In 1923, with its currency effectively worthless (the exchange rate in December of that year was one dollar to 4,200,000,000,000 marks), the German republic was all but reduced to a barter economy. Expensive cigars, artworks, and jewels were routinely exchanged for staples such as bread; a cinema ticket could be bought for a lump of coal; and a bottle of paraffin for a silk shirt. People watched helplessly as their life savings disappeared and their loved ones starved. Germany’s finances descended into chaos, with severe social unrest in its wake.
Money may no longer be physically printed and distributed in the voluminous quantities of 1923. However, “quantitative easing,” that modern euphemism for surreptitious deficit financing in an electronic era, can no less become an assault on monetary discipline. Whatever the reason for a country’s deficit—necessity or profligacy, unwillingness to tax or blindness to expenditure—it is beguiling to suppose that if the day of reckoning is postponed economic recovery will come in time to prevent higher unemployment or deeper recession. What if it does not? Germany in 1923 provides a vivid, compelling, sobering moral tale.
Unquote
The Bible predicted this situation…
Rev 6:5 When He broke the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, “Come.” I looked, and behold, a black horse; and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.
Rev 6:6 And I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not damage the oil and the wine.”
What this says is that a day’s wages will be just about worth a loaf of bread. Not enough to feed the family. Then what?

You’ve got it – this is one of the biggest mistakes about to be made, and it underscores a major issue with people who look at “development” and “progress” with dollar-sign eyes first – as with technologies such as solar and wind power – both toxic – and especially EV’s, another coming disaster in health and environmental threat due to EM fields and eco-destruction from mining. Not to mention geopolitical crimes now ongoing in Congo and on the brink in Bolivia and Venezuala, where our wonderful corporate monolith wants control of it all — people, health, environment and self-determination be damned. I tried to get Gerald to let me write about the incompatibility of the call for peace and our way of life. He would have none of it. No deep truth here, just manipulated Drama for a posture.

April 29, 2020 Peter Tocci
Ironic how Gerald can see the phony “CronyVirus” program, but not see one of the many big reasons for it – driving the sheeple herd evermore into socially disruptive, ecocidal and pathological technology, especially wireless tech. More radiation, more screen time, more isolation from the fellowship of learning and growing together. This is the coming land of the cyborgs – little digitally stunted humans. If parents are concerned about “indoctrination,” they should be getting on the designers of the education system, or else be having discussions with kids about what they learned in school today, because having public education does not, in any way, preclude a degree of home schooling.
And let’s not forget how well-indoctrinated parents themselves are, because society itself is a propaganda machine metanoia-films.org/psywar. We can add Gerald to that list as well, for to blame the crisis at hand, or any major crisis, on “politicians and presstitutes” who are doing what they’re told. It’s supremely naive, albeit convenient for him as he maneuvers in his little niche, focused on negotiating Drama/symptoms, as opposed to exposing the disruptive, chaos-inducing MO and tactics of the orchestrators of the system itself, as it has been designed and manipulated to serve power. But that threatens G’s game, similar to how real cures threaten the conventional medical bottom line. The idea is to perpetuate illness while appearing to address it. No real money in wellness. No posture to be had in a harmonious system.

Ya, it’s about 218,000 now, while the tally is 700,000 for seasonal flu. Where’s the beef? But these stats cannot even be believed, because the “test” (PCR – Polymerase Chain Reaction) being used has big problems, the first being, it’s not even a diagnostic tool, but a research tool, the difference being, it can’t provide viral load, but can only create a pile of RNA, which tells you nothing diagnostically. See the “Testing” section at “Coronavirus — 2019-nCoV — Coronavirus 2 — SARS-CoV-2. Old Angles Reviewed. Uncommon Angles Offered.” https://www.activistpost.com/2020/03/coronavirus-2019-ncov-coronavirus-2-sars-cov-2-old-angles-reviewed-uncommon-angles-offered.html
But to blame this on politicians (and “presstitutes”) is as misleading and harmful as the paranoia scam. It’s just “Drama” that’s either: very naive or disingenuous. These puppets are following the diktats of greedmongers in service to ruthless psychopaths at the top of a global power structure. But we don’t want to say this, because of the implication that the system itself is the problem and that zig-zag manipulations within it just kick the the “morte” can down the road, only prolonging the agony.
“However, even the power holders are not the ultimate power base — that is an even smaller group, the American aristocracy itself [part of the power structure – pt]. Power holders lay down guidelines for the propagandists [metanoia-films.org/psywar] and the research directors, and pass through objectives to the operators [Deep State – pt] for implementation. … Indeed, the president has power; but presidential power can in fact be applied only within carefully framed guidelines…” Antony Sutton, Stanford/Hoover Institution Distinguished Professor of History Antony Sutton (Trilaterals Over Washington, 1979)

‘Natural Healing remedies and modalities will be big business as a new health craze will be accelerated by the pandemic pandemonium sweeping the planet.’ This has been true for many years, but only for a small minority. It’s a consciousness thing. Some people will not ‘color outside the lines’ no matter what benefit to them. There will only be 10% (or less) of the population that will be ‘healthy’. It’s not even about money. It’s about an individual’s ability to see that they have been lied to for generations now. You cannot force consciousness on someone. They must ‘elect’ a higher consciousness, so in short, people. should expect a fairly rapid die-off in the next few decades as the unhealthy living patterns of the unconscious starts to manifest. Sad but true!

My opinion is these “speed boats” are the equivalent of a suicide bomber with their sole intent to trigger a PROPER response from the USA, but a response that will be spun by the worldwide mainstream as a callous, hardhearted, sinister overreaction by our Troops. Look at the optics: A huge US Navy vessel obliterates a blow-up raft. Let the war begin!

Moreover, there is no such thing as a “successful” vaccine. Takeshi Kasai is a punk in a World Health Organization wholly dominated and controlled by Pharma, one of the most evil cartels on the planet (with the telecom/wireless/hitech industry, which is also salivating over the atrocity).

POST APOCALYPSE AMERICA
In the post-corona Virus America, restaurants that can operate several conduits for their customers will most likely survive. I think the traditional sit-down restaurant business model is dead. ( DOD March 23, 2020). Take-Out works up to a point, but Taverns and Bars are not able to ship alcoholic drinks to homes under current State Liquor laws. They are not pizza parlors, after all. ( Alcoholic drinks are high profit margin, so without them, restaurants will have to increase their prices to make the bottom line).
Those few restaurants with existing drive-in business models such as In-and-Out-Burger or El Pollo Loco presently have a HUGE advantage over their competition. In the future, restaurants will need all available outreaches to make their bottom line: walk-in ( fewer tables w/ greater distancing), take-out, drive-in, and any other alternative to get food to the customers outside of the restaurant. It will be that much more challenging to stay in business when the public no longer can afford to dine-out and is disinclined to go outside and risk a contagion.

I would like to suggest Jon Rappoport’s videos or writings on vaccines, DNA & RNA vaccines and all the other deadly additives that are put in vaccines. I would not put any of them in my system, but sadly many people will.
I guess there are lots of sources to find this information. As time goes on and I study the world around me using better sources of information, such as Gerald Celente’s Trends in the News, I’ve come to ask myself a question. If the freaks and fools were willing to kill over 3000 people on 9/11 to take away my 4th amendment rights what are they willing to do to take the rest of my rights away?

I see it as a planned and deliberate destruction of small business in favor global corporations. Once small business is eliminated they are free to do whatever they wish. Have you noticed that the more business is on-line the fewer choices you have? The more restrictions they place on you. The more personal information they demand if you wish to do business with them. My Internet monopoly will not let me change certain information unless I “OPT IN” to automatic billing. Funny how “OPT IN” actually means our way or the hiway.

I don’t own a smart phone so I can’t download their app. Imposing this requirement via law would require that the government would have to pass laws that:
a) Mandate that every citizen own a cell phone (Enrich private corporations).
b) Mandate that every citizen download an app that tracks.
c) Mandate that specified apps actually be given rights as they specify.
d) After all this they would further have to mandate that every citizen carry said smart phone with them at all times.
This is probably why bill gates is pushing injected trackers that we have no control over.
Personally, I suggest that everyone throw their smart phones away and baring that if yo own a drone strap the damned thing to the drone and fly it around town once a day. Or better yet, loan your phone to a friend occasionally so they transport it around in close proximity to theirs for a day or two each week.

The Alfred E Neuman / Bush caricature is classic. I think the original was supposed to be Prince Chas.

ABOUT THE BUSH FAMILY AND DICK CHENEY
President George W. Bush, to his credit, did attempt to move social security towards incremental reform where some of the money would be invested in the stock market rather than only low-yielding U.S. Treasuries. ( Near absolute Zero interest rates currently). You get no long term capital gains investing in debt instruments (bonds). That is an investing fact I can vouch for. All you do while investing in bonds is “balance” the risk assets (stock holdings) in your portfolio and get a modicum of interest payments in the process. He also encouraged greater use of tax deferred Medical Savings Accounts, as well.
Now, you have to remember the Bush Family, going all the way back to patriarch Senator Prescott Bush, have been primarily a banking family and thus have a personal incentive to be globalists, which the Bush Family has reportedly been since the get-go. ( Not an oil family ). Dick Cheney was in effect, the Chief Operating officer during the Bush years. Here is a bit of personal history about former Congressman Dick Cheney ( R-Wyo).
Back in the (late) seventies, then Congressman Dick Cheney was Wyoming’s only Congressman at-large. He traveled throughout the State of Wyoming in his white van visiting his constituents in each small town. Congressman Dick Cheney’s assistant would fill-out an index card documenting a meeting with a Wyoming resident who came to see him while in-town. Just for the record, in answer to my question, Rep. Dick Cheney told me in 1979 that the Trilateral Commission had little influence over U.S. foreign policy or the broader U.S. Government.
In contrast, conspiracy buffs then and now, flag the Trilateral Commission and its high level members from U.S. Corporations and the Federal Government as being avowed globalists since its inception. Then Congressman Dick Cheney was either being disingenuous when he told me that in-person in 1970 or he was a liar ( albeit a good one). My gut feeling is he was not yet a member of the “club” at that early stage of his political career in Wyoming. Being very ambitious in politics, he climbed the ladder over the ensuing 30 years.

This article reminds us that the entire world is connected globally. Retrenching one farm worker in California may lead to a family in Bangladesh having no food on their table (remittances), which lowers economic activity in their local bazaar, which causes job losses for local truck deliverers etc. Hopefully the new economy will have a better underlying structure that doesn’t resemble Slavelandia.

Probably the only truth that came out of Bush’s mouth was when he revealed that the cabal that attacked us on 9/11 hates us for our freedom. It appears they’re trying to finish that off with this follow-up attack. The weapon of mass deception at this point may lead to more casualties in the end than all of the conventional weapons combined to this day. The fact that all corporate news is fake news should be self-evident to anyone with an IQ above zero. But there seems to be a Stockholm’s syndrome that has set in amongst those who continue to believe the proven liars. The battle that is before us is to wake these people up at all cost. The world is heading for utter disaster at the hands of madmen. The meaning of life in the Bible is that we cannot fall for a lie. Death began with Man falling for a lie, and according to the prophesies which are amazingly accurate, life ends with Man falling for a lie, and being burned with fire.

Someone wrote an interesting theory that one of the hidden goals of the lockdowns is to instill in the population “learned helplessness” (i.e. exposing the subject repeatedly to aversive stimuli beyond the subject’s control), by using the covid virus scare as a first exercise in this, in preparation for what is to come with the deliberate demolition financial collapse going into full swing.
This no doubt includes a preparation for war, and the millions of unemployed could be suddenly draft material.

It’s the catholic church that’s highly responsible for the crap that we see going on around us. They have made it a virtue for people to obey authority. They always say we should submit to authority. I’m starting to think that they are the real authority. Think about it. The politicians are answerable to the people so the people are more powerful than them but the people are all answerable to God and when the church has a monopoly on the “truth of God”, the church controls the people. So they are really the true satanic rulers of the earth as far as I’m concerned, the people are in bondage because of them.

mnpund, the words you write are truth. In the book of Revelations 2 and 3, Jesus addresses the different churches, but one of them he refers to as the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, whose doctrine he hates. He uses that word, hates. Nicolaitan is an ancient greek word meaning victory over the people, or the conquerors of the people. Did he have to use the word conquistador for people to understand who he’s referring to?

Winners and losers, with the losers collectively outweighing the winners. Of course a strong economy and meaningful employment are important, as are the ability to replace obsolete stuff in the family home, like apparel. On the other hand, Treadmill Consumerism, my term, is a part of the Slavelandia matrix. Many question if seasonal fashions are enslaving. Millions discard perfectly decent fashion because it now has a 2019 look and feel. So we have to work longer hours to satisfy the shopping sugar hit. Hopefully most of these dumped clothing, in good condition, goes to goodwill stores or is donated. We see this in Sunset Park, 11220. Brown paper bags left on the street loaded with upmarket fashion goodies that are a whopping 6 months old. Most get collected by the garbage trucks. Great article.

“There are millions of faith-based individuals who will refuse to take any vaccine derived from aborted fetal stem cell lines.

I’ve said it before, that mankind is freed with the three R’s: Reformation, which shows us that the self-proclaimed political and religious authorities are corrupt to the core, and the people need to think for themselves; this leads to the second R, Renaissance, which causes the people to explore their intellectual thoughts freely; which leads to the final R, Revolution. But in order for this final R to take place, we have to have common sense. That means having common ideals of the meaning of life. What is right and what is wrong. The forces behind the weapon of mass deception would have you think that the three R’s are reading, writing, and arithmetic. There is a difference between education and training. A dog, an elephant, a monkey, a lion, any animal can be trained. Only people can be educated. The battle we face is intellectual.

Presently U.S., vaccine injuries are not addressable in a court because producers were given immunty from liability in 1986. Injuried vaccine recipients must ask the U.S.Court of Claims to hear their case, which they may refuse to do. There is no jury trials. Since 1986, The Court has paid out over $4,000,000,000.00 (4B) for injuries on claims they heard. Many claims are not accepted by the Court. Further curtailment of rights due to vaccine injuries may arise via THE PREP ACT.
The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act of 2005 (PREP Act)1 authorizes the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to issue a declaration that provides immunity from tort liability for claims of loss caused by countermeasures (e.g., vaccines, drugs, products) against diseases or other threats of public health emergencies. The PREP Act added new authorities under the Public Health Service Act to address concerns about potential liability associated with the development and administration of countermeasures.
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” BENJAMIN FRANKLYN. Former U.S. Rep Ron Paul is advocating non-violent non-compliance to this present loss of our liberties.

The reason why government advise on how to raise immunity is not forthcoming is because
Our government is a “fifth column” against U.S. citizens in its incestuous relationship with the global medical/drug cartel.. We the people are sovereign, but we gave our liberties away for a little security. Join the non-violent protestors.

I tried to post the following on a small town newspaper forum and was censored:
Senator Brown of Ohio said “We need a real plan to reopen the economy, safely – because if we don’t do it safely, we’re just going to have to close it again.”
How very Soviet that sounds…
And you can bet dollars to donuts that an American attempt at a planned command economy will be as much a failure as Russia’s during their seven decades of totalitarian communism. Without constant infusions of Western aid and technology the USSR would likely have self-collapsed into a smoking ruin before WWII. But the American Military Industrial Complex needed an adversary so as to create enough fright and hysteria so the people would beg to be taxed and stripped of rights in order be protected from the boogeyman of the moment. The Soviets were followed by terrorism, and now we have the latest thing to really be scared of…COVID-19.
Having been mostly ordered shut down by government, now our economy is a wreck of as yet unknown dimensions. Not because of a virus, but by the actions taken by our own governments-governments that were corrupt up to their eyeballs before the advent of the virus. Our governments were not magically transformed into credible paragons of virtue merely because of the appearance of a respiratory virus.
Indeed, most government functionaries have seized the moment to exercise powers that very likely are not compatible with the Bill of Rights, such as a quarantine of the healthy and ordering businesses not deemed essential to shut their doors.
Thirty million Americans and counting, thrown out of work by governments that still allow cheap-labor immigration to proceed in the midst of our current situation of never before seen levels of unemployment.
These political critters are simply miserable failures that have not the sort of character to admit they have been wrong, repeatedly, regarding this COVID-19 crises.
And now, from on high, they proclaim they must plan, go slow, with multiple phases, and add heaps of new and improved regulations on those businesses that survive the lockdown-experience to witness the grand economic reopening, always subject to being closed by future government diktat.
They have got to be kidding, right?
They can’t possibly think we are such idiots that we’ll believe even more of what they’ve been shoveling, right?
We are fools, possibly suicidal fools, to keep any trust in those ruling over us.
Our Freedoms and Liberties are in need of new guards…

I don’t see these issues reported in the mainstream media in terms of all themes put in one article. Great article. Cuomo cannot force a vaccine unless it is FDA approved and Trump has control over the FDA, I think. The FDA is probably an independent body in theory – the panelists are appointees. I wonder if the President or Health Minister can over ride a FDA approval. Does anyone know. Vaccines are the crying wolf syndrome. Too many vaccines are/were scams, even if they were a minority.

Perfectly said. There are a multiple loopholes for people who aren’t sheep. Step 1 – you must own a dumb phone. That eliminates about half of all people aged 75+. Maybe that’s why these people are dying faster.
If it weren’t for Google maps, I would probably not own a smart phone. Ironic, as that is the key tracker. I often get lost walking on foot. A compromise is to turn the phone off and only turn it on when lost.

I agree. The Iranian boats pose zero threat to our navy. Are we being truthful about being in international waters? My understanding is that this has been going on for a long time, but now we’re making an issue of it to ratchet up tensions. I certainly don’t trust the Iranians but I question our veracity and motives as well. I lived through 1 1/2 combat tours in South Vietnam based on the gulf of Tonkin incident which we now know never happened. It was false flag event contrived to bring us into the war. A war with Iran would give Israel what they’ve tried to instigate for years, provide a diversion from what’s happening domestically and support domestic oil production. I’m sure out machiavellian deep state and military industrial complex is salivating over the prospect.

What concerns me about everything that’s going on is that the powers that be could potentially create false flag coronavirus cases to deceive the public into giving up more of our freedoms. This will enslave us all to the point where they will say that we need chips in our arms to prevent viruses from getting onto surfaces and spreading when we use them to not only spend money, but even open doors. The potential for this to be exploited is very worrying. Such things have been associated with biblical end time prophecies. What this is doing is forcing everyone to make a stand against whether they will conform and support the beast to the point where families are being torn apart from one another. This is destructive and evil to its limits and now is a time where we have no choice but to fight and I’ve noticed that what is preventing many from doing so is a fear of social disapproval and rejection. Frightening stuff to say the least.

Why must the US dollar be the reserve currency in every situation. For example, if someone wants to exchange gold for bitcoin, they need to first cash in their gold and buy dollars then use the dollars to buy bitcoin. Why can’t we just trade our gold directly with bitcoin. Gold and silver as hard money for the material world, and bitcoin for the digital world?

May 3, 2020 mnpund
It will be interesting to see how this plays out over the medium to long term. These deflationary/stable price scenarios may turn to stagflation if overseas supply lines and/or domestic manufacturing doesn’t ramp up. Central inventories will run dry and there is no guarantee that other nations will want to supply to America unless she pays with real stuff like silver, gold, military hardware. Agree per the article. How this unfolds will be patchy. Will vary by industry and region.

May 3, 2020 Jay Jericho
Am I missing something and is it just me or do people not see the implications of what I just said above? If we just traded one with the other, that is, precious metals for bitcoin, and used them both as a medium of exchange, wouldn’t that render the currencies and central banks obsolete?

May 3, 2020 mnpund
Nick, I think you’re starting to see what crypto enthusiasts have seen for a while. I was an outspoken critic of crypto before I got the understanding of its significance. This is a true revolution, and it’s an intellectual one.

May 3, 2020 Dave from L.A.
Dave, yeah I agree now. I can truly see its power but only when used in conjunction with precious metals. But what is preventing an exchange rate from being established between the two forms of money?

May 4, 2020 mnpund
What I mean is, an exhange of weight (ounces) for bitcoin value?

May 4, 2020 mnpund
It appears to be a lack of confidence issue. Eg. Suppose I have some precious metals and my neighbour has bitcoins. Can’t I just go to my neighbour and exchange the precious metals directly for his bitcoin and use it to make online purchases, and he can use the precious metals to purchase anything he wants locally. The only reason I can see why we are not already doing this is just a lack of confidence in the process. I think that’s what you mean by intellectual revolution. It is the witchcraft of the central banks that continues to deceive people. As Gerald keeps saying, they ought to be wiped out of the temple.

THE SLOW DEATH OF TRADER JOE’S
Trader Joe’s is a small, specialty retail food store. It was purchased by the Germans a number of years ago. All their product is pre-packaged offsite. Generally, these stores are smaller with limited shelf space compared to a traditional grocery store. Lots of niche items but meat and produce is quite limited. Now, with social distancing requirements and limits on the total number of customers allowed in the store, waiting lines are visible during business hours. In contrast, larger and more traditional grocery stores have plenty of space and few lines, except at the check stand, as always.
Trader Joe’s check-stand computers are powered by Windows XP ( 20-year old software that is obsolete). Its not uncommon for the check-stand computer to crash and stay down all day ( unable to reboot). They clearly are stretched financially and so far, seem to be hiding it. Over time, it will be like Chinese Water Drop Torture as they slowly succumb. Trader Joe’s will find it hard to expand and increasingly difficult to keep existing stores in-the-money.
Trader Joe’s is discontinuing a number of product lines due to fewer customers, less demand, and less store revenue. Store hours have been reduced, as well. My belief is they will need to close some stores because the corona virus pandemic has disrupted their business model. Stellar customer service is rather impossible while ordering customers about and telling them where they can and can not stand while in the store. Being a friendly grocer and a cop at the same time does not wash, as the saying goes. You can not be a slave to two masters, its either God or Mammon.

A COMEBACK FOR HOME ECONOMISTS
Masks are dehumanizing, as a matter of fact. Therefore, masks should ONLY be a temporary or short term requirement, at most. If they become regular attire for a lengthy period of time then the traditional sit-down restaurant business is dead. People will eat at home or gravitate to eateries with the drive-in model of business operation. People may actually have to relearn the art of home cooking again. Blast from the past.
Take-out and home delivery may also be utilized on-occasion, but for routine take-out, Dominoes Pizza will have the advantage. Everybody likes a pizza now and then. Why pay any more for food you eat at home in the end? Gourmet restaurants will die a slow death unless the rules of engagement are restored back to pre-corona virus terms and conditions. Highly unlikely in large cities or states like California. Gov. Newsom has a private chef, along with the other pols, while “the people” have to make-do. Its sure nice to be a King, isn’t it ?

My children were homeschooled until high school and they had the opportunity to pursue subjects in greater detail vs. traditional methods. Critical thinking is so important yet completely ignored in common core nonsense which is a “check the box” testing/good score equals knowledge. Don’t worry about the chief criticism that your kids are not socialized. In fact, the homeschool circle of friends are among the best and brightest, talented in arts and music, critical thinkers and can carry on a conversation with adults. It’s quality and not quantity, but quantity wasn’t a problem either!

May 4, 2020 Brettagher
All things need to evolve and some outmoded methods need to be replaced. In this country the focus seems to be teaching for some achievement test vs. teaching to develop a well rounded student who can find his/her interests in life. No doubt, online learning has certain advantages. But kids (all grade levels K thru HS and college) need to physically be in the same room with other kids and teachers, need to learn to socially interact, make real friends (not just the virtual kind), meet after school, play ball together, etc. Kids motivate other kids. Teachers motivate kids. Why can’t online learning be combined with this? As far as Homeschooling, it can not be done by most parents for many reasons esp. economic (they have to work, come home, cook, pay bills).

Bitcoin is the digital gold of millenials and younger generation. Its the dialetic opposite of fiat currencies which can be created at excessive growth rates by monetary and fiscal policy. Bitcoin supply growth reduces every 4 years and limited to 21million supply in total and provable. Whitepaper released in 2009 quarter 1 following the financial crash of 2008 09 and a loss of trust. Bitcoin like gold represents fear of governments and inflation. Bitcoin is decentralised, 24hrs, no broker or closure, provable, transactions verifiable and trust is built on algorithmic maths. Cant ban bitcoin unless internet and then satellite down. Its used to transfer money and so far correlated with 4yr halvings of supply growth, chinese capital outflow in 2016, retail bubble of dec 2017, hong kong protests, and now latin america social crisis and lebanon where banking collapsed. In china blockchain will be used to give gov more control and info on their subjects lives. Wait till you here about ethereum. This is the cyberpunk cultural trend my friends.

Watch “Immunity, Infectious Disease, and Vaccination” by Dr. Raymond Obomsawin.
He shows data from vaccinated countries vs unvaccinated ones that indicates that vaccine does not make one immune. Just the opposite. More vaccinated people get infected (and with higher mortality rate) with diseases like smallpox than unvaccinated people. He references so much data that i’m not waiting in line for covid-19 vaccine.

I do it myself – you know, I look at the Dow and the financial numbers. If they are up, I attribute that to the fundamental health of the underlying economy – then I tell myself, as other eternally optimistic Americans do, that will all ‘come back’, in the great ingenious American way. Then I shake myself and realize that it is not OK – that this not a real economy, and it is not even “capitalism”. I think of Judy Garland skipping down the Yellow Brick Road, then discovering that the Wizard of Oz, when the curtain is pulled back, is a fraud. And then I go on to realize what the economy truly is now: actually it a gigantic criminal fraud. Then I realize that there is truly only one hope left – that the system destroys itself and we are then confronted with the unsolvable task – to quickly develop a new system. Mother of Invention, and all that. Until we have to change, we will not. When we have no choice but to change we can, and will. A new world awaits.

Totally love the name of this recurring page. The front line (street lo down) is always where the intel is at. I have made a conscious decision to pay rent, even though I could easily fake reasons not to. Karma and respect for the fellow blue collar owner are the prime reasons. Not all landlords own multiple properties or own their single property. This article pushes a strong button. To pay or not to pay – that is a hot question. This landlord and the one I had until February this year were not rich people. Were always fair, worked hard and one of them definitely put up with a lot of petty complaints from others.

It has been a week since your last Trends Research issue and the MSM mantra has intensified to try to extend the lockdown. In fact, the Dumbocrat and Repulsicans who are engaged in this monumental hoax to strip the citizenry of Constitutional Rights and freedom of movement and interaction as was the plan that is a culmination of years of vaccine and forced vaccination planned and executed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation along with the aid of the Deep States Worldwide. This is the first of many planned Pandemics for the 21st Century funded by the Gates Foundation, Big Pharma, DARPA, DoD, Purbright Institute, Fort Detrick, British Columbia Level 4 Lab, Wuhan Virology Level 4 Lab, NIH, CDC, Merck, Simonides, GSK, etc. This hoax is a worldwide enterprise of cooperating Billionaires and Banksters.

I went to a neighborhood restaurant more or less to buy lunch and contribute to the survival of the small business. Luckily, the owner received a check and he will be able to retain his employees after he is allowed to open for public in restaurant dining.
I refuse to wear a mask to frequent a business. I’m sure that here in Colorado since we have a Dumbocrat Governor the lockdown will be extended as long as he can so the politicians can disrupt the 2020 election and find another way to investigate Trump. Personally, I am appalled Trump was stupid enough to fall for the obvious hoax perpetrated by partisan political hacks!!
I am waiting with anticipation for Pelosi to introduce more parts of the New Green Deal and send forward more spending on the massive hoax. Luckily, the State of Colorado has a law called Tabor that doesn’t allow the Governor to impose additional taxes or Executive Expenditure without approval of the citizens. That law has saved the state from bankruptcy since 1990 as each state government tries to legislate deficit spending like so many other states like CA, ILL, NY, and NJ. I am waiting to see how the budget Is affected!!

Maybe we can find a way to quietly boycott the big corporations one by one. Maybe not all. First, lets put Coke A Cola out of business by not buying their products, then Pepsi, and so on, until all major health robbing, chemical stew beverage companies go bust. Why would anyone drink a poisonous chemical stew anyway? Wake up dumb…dumbs…such products are killing you slowly and painfully, all the while enriching Big Pharma and Big Med who offer additional poisons and procedures that will add unnecessary pain as well was a shortened life span.
Next on the list… the health robbing snack companies, etc. etc.
It will mean a loss of jobs for a number of people, but such is life… and we are fighting for our lives and freedoms right now. AND RIGHT NOW WE ARE LOSING.
Also, we could encourage the young people not to enlist in the military. When they bring back the draft ( and they will ) we… the older folks… can encourage social disobedience and stand by them. We can expose false patriotism which conservatives, and moderates so blindly follow, by telling the truth about how they are being used by “flag waving” and the “Pledge of Allegiance” mind control tactics as well as Hollywood movies. Call it the “Pat Tillman Patriotic Truth Movement”.
And, let’s boycott Hollywood, the Entertainment industry, Vegas, Big Money Sports. Don’t go to movies, concerts, buy videos, CDs, visit Disney themed parks, cruises, etc. All those which are owned by the big corps. We can hurt them, maybe not all of them, but enough of them to send a message.
As far as politics is concerned, We should boycott major elections and be vocal about it and why we choose not too. Don’t vote in large numbers. Start a none voter power group to expose and embarrass the whole bogus process.

The application of safe medicines, long in use, has not been suggested by government. No government has said “while we are in lockdown, take Vitamin D, which will build your immunity in event you
contract the virus”. This is supreme proof that government, in this matter, is not your friend – indeed it is your mortal enemy.

May 6, 2020 Norman Hauptman
As I understand it, the same was said about Polio. Most who contracted it did not suffer the crippling effects of it, only a small number did. Also I have heard that when they began using vaccines, the disease was on the downside of the curve. Actually, children were damaged unnecessarily by the vaccines (e.g. The Cutter Vaccine Scandal). It has been said that the explosion in cancer was caused by tainted Polio Vaccines given to the US public. Dr. John Bergman stated this was the reason Richard Nixon began “War On Cancer” in the early 1970’s.

The shielding, the mask, the distancing will change all of this not only for the patrons but the staff as well. The experience will go from a trusting enjoyable experience to one where you might say, let’s just say home and have friends over, out of sight of the social distancing police.

What is clear is that local, state and federal governmental agencies are tracking our every movement and using COVID-19 as the excuse to justify the unlawful surveillance. Wake up, 1984 is NOW!!!! I don’t take my cell phone out of my house anymore.
This is a nationwide surveillance software initiative to control the citizenry!!!

Gerald, I have been meaning to send you a message about nutritional support for Coronavirus, being a Naturopathic doctor myself. I actually graduated from National University of Health Sciences, where you got your honorary degree from.
I am a Naturopathic doctor working out in the Chicagoland area and treat my patients with nutrition, herbs, and homeopathy, which work very well with infections. I would like to see you speaking more about this so that people have a great alternative to the mainstream medical approach and an outlet that they may have never heard of before. My seasonal allergies completely went away years ago under Naturopathic treatments and I think that bolstering the communities immune system will help us, mostly old but also and young, from having symptoms from the virus.
Let me know what you think.

People complain about high rents and not paying the land lord. I guess that will come about and these small businesses will likely go under. It’s a pity that protesters will kill the land lords but not the two basics that cause high rents, high tax rates for lousy services and high insurance rates due to laws that allow insurance companies unfair business practices. Why not protest them instead?

If this world wide HOAX is allowed this time around, it will be repeated again and again……….! It will be interesting to see how long that it will take to crush the human spirit or have that spirit explode in fury. The freaks and fools only have as much power as the people give them. There are no go zones in many cities around the world, that phenomenon could expand exponentially and creep right up to the governmental doorways and inside. It would be tragic. However, the tyrants are stomping on their fellow human beings now and do not seem to care or show any sign of stopping. The very genetic make up our ancestors, who created the free world, and bequeathed both to us should be screaming at us, “do not lose what we created do not lay down”.

The question at hand is how was the weapon of mass deception made so lethal? For anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear, the trail is public knowledge.
Operation Mockingbird is a large-scale program of the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) that began in the early 1950s and attempted to manipulate news media for propaganda purposes.
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 allowed for media cross-ownership. This made it possible for only a handful of companies to control all the news.
The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) has an amendment added that negates the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 (SMA) and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987 which now allows the government to use propaganda to influence foreigners and U.S. citizens.
Unless weaponized media is brought under control, our destruction is nigh. Unfortunately, there are no good guys running to the rescue of the hostages which are all of our families. In the end, the hostages are going to have to free themselves.

We Americans need to save more, and take at least partial responsibility for our lack of savings. A documentary produced a few days ago shows massive food pantry queues in El Paso Texas – hundreds of cars, miles long. Almost all cars in this queue look less than five years old. Spending $5 bucks in gas (or more) for a $10 box of food. Nothing wrong with that owning/renting a new car every few years per se. Those interviewed by the news channel said “I have no food at home”. We the People need to be more frugal collectively. Yes, the system is rigged by thieves and murderers at the top of the slag heap.

One Mockingbird theme the fake news presstitutes use is this fake story – a head line such as “Pastor who called COVID19 a scam, dies of Coronavirus infection”. Yes, these avatar pin up poster people probably were real and rejected COVID19. But died of other causes. Brainwashing message – don’t mock COVID19 or you can/will die too. The nursing home citation above is perceptive and largely overlooked elsewhere. Just following that trail leads to a scam conclusion. I seem to recall something like 16 of America’s first 18 deaths occurred at the same nursing home in Washington State.

Let me provide all of you with an unknown fact about the egotistical NY Governor Andrew Cuomo. At the very beginning of the pandemic and before the lock down, pharmacists in NY state asked the governor if they could compound hand sanitizers for the general public.

Speaking of colleges, trends and endowments. Here is a prediction that may come true, but seriously, it is one that we must not wish true. America has a ton of magnificent colleges that have massive campuses – pristine buildings and grounds. It doesn’t take long for cracks to appear, grass to grow long and building interiors to start to decay when budgets are cut and wings are closed. One only has to watch those abandoned buildings in Detroit documentaries to see how unique magnificent heritage Art Deco architecture can rot when the economic SHTF. To this writer, the answer lies in alumni and locals getting off their asses and forming working bees a few times a year. Let’s see how many volunteers will do such as thing. Thinking positive.

Europe’s main economic problem may be an over reliance on cheap imports. Too much of Europe’s economy relies on shaky services: tourism, which is subject to big downturns in recession, and the parasitic banking and finance sector. The same may be said of America. It’s hard to discuss the Eurozone as a whole as it is diverse. It is probably trending towards becoming defunct.

May 8, 2020 Jay Jericho
Agree. I question if the logic of the Federal Administration aims to slow the social and economic spheres to soften the blow for a major transition into a new system that will be painful in the short term but less slave like in the long term. This is just a hunch – the USD as the reserve currency faces extinction soon, and the days of importing cheap stuff on the national credit card are in the past. America will be better in the long run – the stuff produced here is better quality. I no longer buy made in China can openers and lighters. They tend to last a few days. If such a transition is imminent, it is just another case of it being plotted behind the closed doors – an assumption that We the People cannot handle the truth.

May 8, 2020 Jay Jericho
There are several seemingly insurmountable problems on our horizon. One is the intransigence of the financial and political leaders to accept the defeat of neo-liberalist and neo-conservative dreams of global domination. and, the US economy has never actually recovered from the 2006-2009 crash, with a new trillion dollars of federal debt every year of the Obama administration, and now with the Federal Reserve given complete control of the US (and world) economy with mega-debt employed. A warning was ignored in 2009, with an opportunity squandered to reshape the financial economy, with doubling and tripling down on failure thus substituted with ‘too big to fail’ policies. The Federal Reserve, and political machinations of our politicos, are all of a temporary nature, and recovery can not be reasonably expected until well past the point where multitudes of the population become insolvent. The US economy, being 70% consumer based, will not return to ‘normal’, or commanded to ‘normal’, whatever that is, once our economy is ‘re-opened’. The ‘fear factor’ resulting from the instituted mass lockdowns will no doubt engender a new population reluctant to resume their former ‘go-go’ consumer ways. Note that automobile sales are down by half, and the “happy motoring” culture of the 1960’s so beloved by the masses will no doubt not return, at least quickly. Also note that in around 10 days all storage capacity for oil and derivates will be full, and after that wells will need to be capped, with their restart problematic. Note also the scribes who have reported that our now “zero interests rates” are actually negative rates, due to collapsing GDP and other factors. Our American partisanship is now at historic highs, making working together as Americans to help find a solution to this mess also seem insurmountable. Note also the new news (Flynn exoneration and setup by the intelligence agencies, Mueller interviews being belatedly released further deflating the ‘coup’ on Trump, also reported pending indictments seeming to be certain – will Barack Obama be implicated possibly?) are causing the opposite side of every political argument to go into “kill mode”, rather than working together for the benefit of America as a whole. Not a recipe for success. I had hoped that there could potentially be a sort of global teamwork (US, EU, Russia, China) working together to find a mutually-beneficial financial outcome (a world currency?) now seemingly impossible due to the blame-game and war threats being employed to save the jobs of elected political psychopaths. Now there is talk of a possible nuclear war, Note the inability of the ‘controllers’ to accept their defeat in Syria for example, plus blatant regime change events a few days ago in Venezuela, as well new nuclear arms race, and publicized threats of super-weapons to be employed as a first strike option. Remedy? Change.

Most people are familiar with the metaphor of the blue pill and the red pill from the movie “The Matrix”. To understand this, we have to identify the people who are on the blue pill, which I must admit I was on it for much of my adult life. These people are basically hypnotized; when you get red pilled is when facts in front of you snap you out of the hypnosis that you were in. I would have to say in 99% of the cases, once you are red pilled you never go back to the blue. I believe the elites may have pushed their hand too far, and we may have the greatest and possibly the last opportunity to red pill enough people to make the change the world needs. Generally, people don’t wake up until their ox has been gored. Right now, we are in an ox slaughterhouse.

These exponential growth explanations by the media in relation to the coronavirus are a load of crap. While it is true that exponential growth is rapid, it all depends on the growth rate and on the compounding period. Some of these explanations by the media are completely unrealistic, for example, they compound daily instead of around every 5 to 7 days which is more in tune with the reality of the situation. Also, to properly use these exponential models you have to model the growth rate as a variable, not as a constant and how the growth rate varies is not easily guessed. In fact, if you look at the charts of the recorded data, the growth factor rises and falls like a stock on the stock market, totally unpredictable. Another thing these media people do not mention when they describe the exponential models is the impact of immunity. For example, the number of infections they say would double every 5 to 7 days if they did not impose social distancing measures and they show the severity of this by using the exponential to describe how the number of cases could grow to large numbers. However, what they do not mention is that after a certain amount of time, the number of people recovering and developing immunity as well as those who isolate themselves because they’re sick would significantly decrease the growth rate and hence the rate at which the exponential grows. These stupid media descriptions are way over exaggerated and it is not the social distancing measures that are slowing this down but the fact that people are taken out of the pool when they know they have the virus and when they have recovered. The media is spreading fear.

I Would like to add a couple of things that the unemployment numbers may be over stated due to the number of application received by State unemployment offices. Lot of people are applying for unemployment benefits as a fraudulent transaction, Even they have some part time work/subcontrating or cash work or they are still self employed but state unemployment offices have no records of their earnings due to Income not being reported in the applications. I have noticed then people do like to take advantage of the situations even when they don’t necessarily need to file for a claim. Due to this money madness the needy does not get the proper benefits because someone else who does is not eligible to claim the benefits at first place gets the money by staying first in line.

The other thing the media doesn’t report is that a number – possibly a large number of the population – are asymptomatic and will likely not know that they have had the disease.

Watch and listen to the recent Keiser Report (E1538: Moar Money!!!). As well as being truly hilarious, this episode contends that the banks and Federal Reserve have essentially begun privatizing the world economy. The Federal government announced last week that $2.999 trillion dollars was added to the Federal debt load (in order to cause the stock market’s miraculous recent boom – not the .999 no cause the sheeple to think $2 trillion, instead of 3), and will now be an engender an uncontrollable growth of debt until the entire world economy melts down totally. It’s now time to do what Barack Obama did, and buy a $6 million estate (where did he get that kind of money?) on an island somewhere. Look for the billionaires to start heading for their bunkers, as well !!!

Anthony is without a doubt my favorite artist. He had one of his works depicting the towers on 9/11, and my comment was referencing 2 Thessalonians 2 about the great deception. You had come in and replied to me agreeing with me. I remember it to this day. When COVID-19 happened, I realized that this was the bookend to the great deception. 9/11 to -19. Two decades of this deception has been unfolding, and this may be the climax to it. When I had posted that comment years ago, I never thought the deception would take this extreme of a turn.

1. Fear of STORE employee’s is spreading of virus to them /or to other people such as customers and associates. 2. Fear of large corporations is that people may sue them if they don’t follow the safety measures when customers or employees may get sick. (Remember, People look for opportunities or short cut to make quick bucks) 3. Customers are scared of getting the virus from store employees and or from other customers.
The Crux is this then why the hell bother with going to stores or restaurants when you will be treated like a piece of crap. You wont be getting any services. You will be treated like a threat to the society. You wont be seeing as a customer but a potential threat to anyone around you. Fun of going out and enjoying with family and friends is dead. Forget about enjoying the food, people will be more scared of eating the food prepared or served by someone who may have Virus. Just look at the drive through, employees, they are so scared to take the payments or giving the bag of your food that they are literally not paying attention to any kind of customer services.

I am not in favor of this idea of not paying rent due to the following reasons:-
1. First, why dont pay rent when you are collecting unemployment or wages when government giving assistance to the small/medium or large businesses to keep employees on payroll under PPP Program.
2. Second, its not your landlord’s fault that you have lost your job due to COVID or matter of fact for any reasons. Landlord is in jeopardy as well, they have mortgage to pay, Property taxes and insurances to pay. Are they getting any favors? Landlord’s are getting loan deferrals for 3 months but that does not solve the problem. By not paying the rent and making the mortgage payments we are breaking the cash flow cycle for the economy. This will only trigger bankruptcies and more destruction.
3. Many people are just taking the advantage of the situation and deliberately not making the rent/mortgage payments. In my opinion they don’t care about the fellow human being but they are only self centered to see their own benefit at the time of crisis. We should support everyone we can. It’s not the time to take advantage of others but provide them support at any level we can.

How long the European banks are going to print the cheap doug? Once this crazy money printing stops and they have no other weapons left to rescue the failing banking sector then it will be a falling knife which will take everything with it. After this fall a “Beginning of new monetary system” with the tracking technology and blockchain based digital monetary system will be implemented worldwide.

I see this shift to telemedicene as a huge opportunity for corporate data collection. My doctor recently offered me a tablet pre loaded with software, camera and microphone. Every app I opened was a google app even the damned keyboard.
I use only Linux and a very security oriented hardened browser that keeps as much google out of my life as possible. I thanked the doctor and returned the tablet. While I can see the advantages of such technology I will not use it until they provide an open source version sans google and Microsoft. I know the whole world is trying to construct a profile of me for their databases but, I refuse to cooperate any more than necessary.

It seems clear that the INTENTION of this lock down here in “Slavelandia” is to do as much damage to the economy as possible before the November election in hopes that people will turn on Trump and the democrat communist of choice will defeat him in the election ushering in a clean sweep of the presidency, house and senate.

A pressing issue is H.R. 6666, aka the “TRACE” Act (formally known as the COVID-19 Testing, Reaching And Contracting Everyone Act), which was introduced by Illinois U.S. Representative Bobby L. Rush.
In a nutshell, the bill proposes mandatory testing at individuals’ residences, giving the government thugs “carte blanche” to break into homes and forcibly remove and quarantine anyone who tests positive for COVID-19. We’re not feeling too confident on the reliability of the test in light of the fact that a goat and a piece of pawpaw fruit both recently tested positive in Tanzania.
But on a deeper level, it doesn’t take a constitutional scholar to see that H.R. 6666 violates inalienable rights to one’s person, home and property, to one’s life, freedoms, privacy and security. It is a violation of the 4th Amendment, as well as the 1st, 5th, 8th and 9th Amendments to the Bill of Rights. It is an illegal act of forced medical treatment upon “We the People” and an invasion into our local communities.

I was looking for stats on new hospitalizations in the stage-1 of the gestapo opening the doors (the real numbers of this pandemonium that matter) and it seems that the media just doesn’t like to emphasize them. They just keep pushing the fearfunkin numbers of positive tests test test and the new number of poor souls that have been battling the sickness for a month or more and finally stepped out.
I found something quite interesting admitted in print – A tracking “index” from before-n-after the pandemonium… tracking “index”? before the pandemonium? so much for conspiracies.

The update also included an analysis by Mecklenburg County showing there’s been a decrease in social distancing, which is measured by a mix of mobility data from cars, phones and transit systems. County officials say social distancing “index” data show adherence to social distancing has decreased slightly in a 14-day period ending May 8, which was the data North Carolina relaxed some stay-at-home restrictions.
—> However, social distancing is still “significantly higher” than before the stay-at-home order came into effect in late March, officials said in the analysis.<—

What to do with all these spare airplanes in the next few years. Convert them into mobile homes? If you count those not captured by the definition of unemployed – students, retirees, disability support recipients, those working an hour a week – every second person in America is not employed. Ok, this figure is plucked out of the air, but it is around that number. The airline industry was long struggling. Makes one question if most will merge and we will end up with a handful of carriers. Example: European Airlines; The Americas Airlines.

This entire COVID-19 virus is the perfect excuse as for why the Greatest Depression to ever occur in the history of the human species is here. These politicians think we’re a bunch of knucklehead idiots who can’t read between the lines. I know for a fact that The Trends Journal and Trends in the News repeatedly reported and warned us numerous times that the Greatest Depression is on its was and would most likely hit around the U.S. Presidential Election or the first quarter of 2021. Thanks to the Trends Journal, we all know much better than what the politicians try to stuff down our throats. What’s more is that these politicians tell us to wear masks, gloves and maintain social distancing. However, I see Donald Trump, Mike Pence, Congress, the Senate, Andrew Cuomo, MIchael Bloomberg, Bill de Blasio and many others without masks, gloves and they stand and sit inches from each other. I’m not being fooled by this pathetic joke of an excuse! The real reasons for this greatest depression to hit the world are income and wealth disparities, poverty, crony-capitalism, corporatism, nepotism, corruption, political malfeasance, cheap money being printed by central banks, totalitarianism, violence and this so-called Trickle Down Economics that didn’t trickle and the one percent have far too much control over our economy, finance, business and even politics!

It’s Crony-capitalism for the ultra-rich and depravity for the rest of us. The one percent has always gained access to the central banking system and all that cheap money that comes from it. While the rest of us get into debt and remain there for life. These ultra-wealthy bankers, corporate chiefs and hedge fund managers manipulate the system, pay off the corrupt politicians and get away with all of the mergers and aquisitions that make them ever more richer at the expense of the rest of us.

This pandemic is not just about the amount of people who died in relation to the total population. It’s about the virulence of the virus and its unknown nature. We still do not understand the complexity. It affects almost every area of the body, lungs(severe sob), heart attacks , kidney failure , skeletal structure( debilitating generalized pain) , gastrointestinal symptoms ( diarrhea) , rashes, the loss of smell and taste, strokes, blood clots, and for many the ultimate. We are also not sure if there will be long term effects.
It occurs to me that the scare mongering, while having some agenda behind it, cannot so bias our cognition , that we fail to appreciate the gravity of this possibly man made virus. The abysmal management of this pandemic from the lack of tests, to the dearth of proper face masks early in the pandemic ,is a critical issue but Gerald’s mocking of attempts to avoid the catching of this virus, is an expression of an ignorant and childish petulance devoid of any sense of humanity. Try not to get the virus if you are ,old , fat, diabetic, have heart disease, high blood pressure or any other underlying disease. Maybe we should just allow the disease to kill off a third of the population while we work for that almighty dollar.

Given how tight margins are in restaurants, it’s a wonder that so many survive. Many survive working seven days a week and long hours. The cost of buying stuff in a small family owned bar is often just a couple of bucks higher than making it at home – and restaurants have all that red tape and overhead. Keen to know if others have insight into the restaurant business. It’s a great indicator to watch. The death of this industry would be like Soviet Russia. Bland. Food as functional.

The politicians thrive on control. Keeping people inside glued to the tube allows the news media to continuously feed the narrative of risk and fear.

Some politicians fear independence.

Even the 1 % are going to have to do something to retain their wealth when the dollar is finally replaced by some sort of controllable digital currency. So, how are they going to play the negative interest rate game and where are they going to stash their wealth? Yes, what they are doing to the worlds’ masses is not right, but how is that statement and attitude going to help you to survive and prosper? So again, I ask what are they going to do or what are they are doing to preserve their assets? I submit to you that they have, at the very least, miscalculated (or, as Gerald says they do not have an exit strategy) just as they did in the last presidential election or this covid foolishness. We need to stop playing the victims and start using our heads and playing the game to win. Gerald is 100% correct when he says, now more than ever, it is time to start thinking for yourself. There are many out of the box thinkers whose articles I have read and whose webinars I have watched, for example Greg Mannarino, To quote an unfailing source, it is no accident that we are here now at this point in history, for we were born for such a time as this. I am just as frustrated and angry as Gerald (and a lot of other folks) when I look around and see the sheeple making sure they are six or more feet apart, running around with masks like bank robbers and even, unbelievably so, driving around with masks in their own freaking cars! However, unless you are in bad health or taking statin drugs or ace inhibitors (which incidentally increase the number of ace2 receptors in your cells which covid attacks) or have had many flu vaccines, you really do not have to be concerned. Turn off the tv as it seems there are more covid commercials now than there are drug commercials (do you think there is a reason for that? DUH!). I plead with you to use your head for something more than a place to put a hat (which is what the 1% desire for you). It is more critical now than ever before to discern the truth and act upon it.

Now, let’s talk about the other shoe that significantly adds to the covid foolishness. For years, Americans have been subjected to the lie that heard disease is caused by high levels of LDL cholesterol. As such, the totally illicit ADA has set forth guidelines for blood levels of LDL and this has resulted in biliions and billions of dollars of sales for satin drugs. Coincident, typically, with these prescriptions are prescriptions for ace inhibitors. The vast majority of American senior citizens are polypharmic, i.e, taking multiple prescriptions daily, and it is a well known fact that statins and ace inhibitors increase cellular ACE2 receptors which covid attaches to. Add to that little tidbit that each and every flu vaccine depeletes the body’s immune system with the onjectino of foreign proteins ad you have a recipe for disaster on top of the already disastrous diets commonly called SAD (Standard American Diet).

May 13, 2020 Paul Hessler
WHY THIS HAS BEEN CALLED “THE MOST UNLOVED BULL MARKET, EVER ”
Bet you have heard this reference to the 2009-2020 Bull Market a few times by now. There has been a continued divergence between fundamentals and the price of stock (Indexes) all this time. Keep in-mind there are substantially fewer individual stocks listed on the various exchanges today. For example, the “Wilshire 5000 Index” currently only contains about 3,500 stocks. Fewer companies are choosing to be listed or if they do, its not in U.S. stock markets. There is another disconnect. America is not the “only game in town” anymore and we might just be gradually losing market share to Asia.
Another consideration proven by Elliot Wave Theorist Bob Prechter is there has never been a consistent correlation between company earnings and the direction of the stock market. For example, company earnings were trending-up for most of the 1970’s but the stock market trended down the entire time ( Refer to stock market charts of that time period ).
What investors think they know about markets is largely conjecture, not fact. Same goes with gold, inflation, and the quantity of money. Printing copious amounts of money does not necessarily lead to hyperinflation. Gold does best ONLY when the general public has lost ALL confidence in the financial and political system. Then, gold spikes way up ( but remains highly volatile ). It appears that days lies ahead in our collective futures.
So, there are many myths and bromides concerning the stock market or real estate market ( actually, all markets ). Real Estate sales agents like to tell clients that real estate never goes down. (That is a lie ). The biggest factors that determine the direction of markets have always been investor sentiment and public confidence. Public confidence in government peaked in 2015 and has been trending down ever since. Public confidence will keep going down until about 2032 A.D. after which, the public wave supplants the previous private wave, as occurred in 1933-1982.
In addition, China will become the world leader in finance and business post 2032 A.D. according to International Consulting Economist, Martin A. Armstrong. America is destined to fall way behind Asia across-the-board by then. It looks as if our rapid decline has already begun, possibly this year. Martin’s A.I. program Socrates synthesizes all the data from all around the world and makes written forecasts and also independently updates them according to the software. True A.I. The United States will become a third tier power by post-2032 A.D. at the rate we are going.

I too, personally know of no one who has had symptoms of the corona virus. I have had one flu shot in my life and that was over 50 years ago. I can go back 37 years with no memory of the flu or even a cold. But the powers that be have instilled such fear in the general population that it is impossible for me to have a reasonable conversation with my closest friends concerning comparisons of the number of cases or deaths caused by this virus when compared to other years. I live in a county with a population of over 500,000. This county was shut down weeks ago. At this writing there are 390 cases in the whole county and there have been 16 deaths. I despair for my country. Unless some common sense is restored soon, unconstitutional tracking of our every move and mandated vaccinations will be just the beginning of what is in store for us.

Lancelot – it seems to me you are speaking of two separate issues. Mortality, i.e., how many died per 1,000 or 100, 000 in a certain population and the effects of the disease. You also have a hint of fear in your writing which is understandable given all the non-stop “news” for the last x days. From all that I have been able to absorb the Mortality isn’t all that different from the influenza mortality. There are problems with my statement though such as the manipulation of the yearly influenza statistics by the CDC, and the total unreliability of the corona virus death statistics. As for the effects of this virus, I suspect that is largely a function of the individuals immune health at the time of exposure to the virus. It is well known that large numbers of people in the US are deficient in vitamins A, D, C, as well as the many B vitamins. This alone weakens your immune system proportionally. We are further largely deficient in major minerals and other vital nutrients – think zinc, selenium etc.
I am old, and have diabetes and other illnesses related to agent orange exposure. This was largely due to my own ignorance and indiscretions of youth. However, My immune system is excellent (Verified by laboratory testing) and my biological age is 18 years lower than my chronological age as per my last Heart Rate Variability (HRV) test. I see a Functional Medicine MD who uses pharmaceutical drugs as a last resort. I have been reading and studying natural medicine since 1980 and while still basically ignorant, I am in excellent health at my age. I have no fear of the virus, don’t wear a mask and haven’t changed my behavior since all this hysteria began. It is also well known but, not publicized, that pharmaceutical drugs destroy the immune system by depleting the very nutrients that support immune strength.
Gerald’s constantly pointing out the low Mortality rates of this virus serves to illustrate the ridiculousness of this “operation”.
I agree with you completely on your suggestion that this is a man-made virus. All evidence that I have seen indicates this is so.
I dislike making statements that are not supported therefore I usually add a few links to more authoritative information if I can so that people can verify and make up their own minds. So here are a few sources to pursue if interested:

It was once explained that ancient South and Central American civilizations which centered around ziggurat worship died because of disease epidemics. Later it was stated that the people, disillusioned, just simply walked away from the centralized nonsense until the sites were abandoned, leaving behind the shell of a city or way of life not worth perpetuating.
Maybe we could learn from the ancients. Maybe it is time to leave behind a bureaucratic system that benefits criminal incompetence at the highest levels while at the same time discourages innovation, independence, and industry at all other levels.

WE ALL MUST WEAR MASKS INDOORS
They look silly but if the store owner requires all customers to wear a mask, then you must obey or take your business elsewhere. Store owners have the right to impose reasonable rules or requirements. In Calif. all retail grocery stores have the same mask requirement: All must wear. So, the decision was made by those above the store manager level and the individual customer. This is a major choke-point. The only other alternative is to order your groceries on the internet and have them delivered to your house. No personal contact and no mask requirement.
In addition, you could limit yourself only to drive through restaurants and a diet of fast food. However, fast food is not the most healthy diet one could consume. Every alternative or choice has its own particular trade-offs. Masks are now a semi-permanent requirement everywhere in the United States anytime you are inside a store, office, or business. Better just get used to it and order a large box of surgical procedural masks. They might come in handy.

“Interpublic hasn’t signed off on the system yet, but it’s definitely “on the front burner,” said Eric Ossmann, chief medical officer at the medical-advisory firm Vigilint Protective Health Services, which is advising Interpublic. Interpublic said it has only begun preliminary discussions about the system.”

Advertising giant Interpublic Group of Cos . is exploring dividing its 22,000 U.S. employees into three separate groups, according to perceived health risks, which could include age.

““It is a reasonable approach, if you can get through the operational and some of the privacy and regulatory issues,” Dr. Ossmann said.”

The social problems in that country run deep. Some middle aged and older people don’t know how to recognize a toilet brush from a letter opener. A system of Asian and Pacific rape slaves have performed these duties for decades. If this country has not invested in precious metals and infrastructure it is in deep trouble. A most interesting case study. An interesting, culture rich nation. Of course many, many Saudis are hard-working, decent champs.

Already seeing signs of decay here in central Florida. Recent trip to grocery store and one of the adjoining businesses was a popular local dinner. They only served breakfast and lunch and the place was always crowded. I sat there as a crew was removing the large neon signs on the store front and I don’t think it was a remodel project.

Take a close look at South Australia with a population of 1.5 million. Down to one active case and no reported cases in nearly 3 weeks. Testing available for anyone with a sniffle or cough. No cost and no shortage. Three fully fitted out empty hospitals in preparation with no patients. Best to be prepared and not need the bad space. Total body count of 3.
Restrictions, border controls, isolation compliance checks and social distancing do work.
Bankruptcy Vs Bodycount. You can’t come back from being dead!
The US is a disaster and the body count and social harm will increase exponentially..
Sorry, but can’t agree with idiots walking the streets with firearms protesting in favor of their Constitutional rights.

The “bigs” I shop at, allowed to stay in business by our rulers, have raised the prices, along with no price break sales, exemplifies the statistically deceptive “prices fell” statement by Dept Of Labor as the only thing plummeting in price is Gasoline & fuel which account for all of the D.O. L. “overall price drop.” Also why does the D.O.L. keep track of prices any way? Has nothing to do with Labor. White lies, lies and Statistics!

We are fast becoming a nation which hates itself. We are divided to the point of becoming enemies of whoever does not see the world as we see it. Now our “globalists” versus our “nationalists”. All this is perfectly reflected in our moribund political system, as well as the blatant favoring of billionaires over commoners by the banking system, which now has been granted full financial powers over our Potemkin Village “economy” in order to “save” that tiny minority at the expense of the many, and the most. We are fast reaching a point where, like the American colonists of the mid-1700’s, we will find ourselves forced to rebel against our masters. For over 200 years we had our “American Dream” to provide our reason for being and guiding light. The present system has bankrupted this fundamental spirit, as it bankrupted itself. Materialism and greed will soon find their limits.

Two words we’ve frequently heard in the last couple of decades is stealth and austerity. Austerity was never openly touted for the US, too exceptional. Europe had its share of austerity programs. “The Greeks gotta tighten their belts.” Stealth, of course, was assigned to military hardware, mostly planes. Is the Corona Economy America’s Stealth Austerity? We’ve ‘enjoyed’ plenty of stealth inflation over the last 10 years. Time for the main event, brought on by the bottom 90% reaching its debt limit?

THE COMING FINANCIAL SHITSTORM
Reportedly, troubled homeowners have enrolled in $ 1 Trillion in Mortgage forbearance under one of many new govt. sponsored programs ( 2020 Version of the 1930’s New Deal by the FED ). However, in a year when the program expires, these same homeowners must resume their monthly mortgage payments or eventually face the music (foreclosure).
So, its only a postponement of a tidal wave of potential single family home mortgage defaults and foreclosures. Someone will have to take (eat) the loss, either Fanny Mae, Sally Mae, Fannie Mac or a U.S. Bank. Bank stocks are all way down by double digits this year. No surprise. A shitstorm of financial trouble is coming in the next 2-3 years. Better hunker down. Looking like a real Great Depression II.

Although the historical data shows around 70% of the new businesses fail, they never seem to lose spirit and slow down.

Jesus tells us that the Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth. Right now, I can’t point to a single one of the for-profit clergy collecting their tithes (tax free by the way) that is confronting power with truth. This is truly the great deception of 2 Thessalonians 2. And those who fall for the lie will be damned. The Bible could not make that more clear.

May 15, 2020 Dave from L.A.
Dave from L.A…The function of the for-profit clergy is to keep the people obedient to authority. The clergy has always done this, that’s why they have made a virtue out of obedience. If the people were to turn on political authority in such large numbers that the clergy could no longer control them, then the clergy would also turn on that same political authority. We should not forget that when it comes to the clergy, we are dealing with the lowest of the low, such is what they do, they will twist and turn their position to suit the majority in order to retain their control over them and retain their power.

Celente and most are talking economics, politics, and so on. But in truth, our way of life, including the mining and processing of your “metals,” as well as wireless technology and hi tech in general, very much including the “clean energy” future and “sustainable development” (Elite psyops) are bringing on a collapse that will clearly show the ultimate value of those metals – ZERO. I’m talking abut ecosystem collapse. And if/when that comes, a warehouse full of gold won’t be worth a cellarful of superfoods and clean water.
Moreover, Celente wishes to stay in his little profitable niche of “Drama,” without telling folks who’s really running this show, and that the ones who appear to be doing it, including national and state leaders, UN, Fauci, NIH, CDC, WHO and so on, are following a program, or policy, handed down from the top of a power structure dominated by a cabal of psychopath financial elites. Their goal is not money, but total domination and control of technomasturbating society, the scourge of life and survival on the planet.
Celente wants peace and all that, but refuses to acknowledge – or refute- the fact that our very way of life is incompatible with peace and justice. Never the twain shall meet, because the whore/warmonger Earth-liquidating elites designed the system that way to begin with.
The NWO is coming fast, but not so much in geopolitics as traditionally thought, but in the technosphere, via wireless tech, AI, nanotech, and so on. Total thought. emotion, choice and behavior control at the “push of a (AI) button” in real time (5G). In fact, the symptoms of COVID-19(84) and much other illness, cans be caused by microwave radiation (stealth weapons, for example)
Just a sample:

And the MUST SEE: https://adst.org/microwaving-embassy-moscow/
There’s a ton of good info about this out there, but not in here, where Celente reigns, and whose niche is threatened by the FACTS he says he’s giving us. Facts they may be, but not all and not comprehensive enough (mostly symptoms, not underlying cause), because not only would he have no idea what to do about them, but his love of and faith in gold/metals would be shown for the elite game they are, into which he has long played.

A few very important thoughts and words. Gerald reminds us that it doesn’t take a majority to effect change. This short article show you how to go about change. The title of the article holds the key:
Nothing Changes As Long As You Obey.
And this quote from Martin Luther King Jr.:
“Cowardice asks the question: is it safe? Expediency asks the question: is it politic? Vanity asks the question: is it popular? But conscience asks the question: is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular – but one must take it simply because it is right.”

It is already too late or Americans to be so called woken up. As negative as this may sound it’s a fact. my evidence for that statement is largely based left in action of Americans 2 before any of this happen to rise up against our oppressors and take our country or government back. I believe there is a small portion of Americans and intellectuals throughout the world that know most of what they hear on mainstream media and through every other Tom Dick and Harry in town is total b******* people are brainwashed and you can’t get through to them once brain washing happens.,I’ve heard and read it is unreversible. Most information people get is from second dairy sources they believe everything they hear they don’t question they don’t debate they just agree with the status quo or the majority of people. If brain washing why isn’t a real thing how can a small minority of governors and governments troll a large portion people?

What we are seeing in this crisis is simply the preparation for the population control necessary for the future installation of the globalist dream of a homogenized population (example: destruction of ME nations and uncontrolled migration into “western” countries), breakdown of the nuclear family, destruction of public education, secularization and dilution of Christian concepts, acceptance and breakdown of all sexual orientations), liquidation of “excess population” through culling of the herd through mass starvation, sterility through reduced potency, now bioweapons development and rationalization of the use of nuclear weaponry, and the breakdown of alternate systems such as China’s economic “win-win” world economic partnerships instead of globalist world domination, removal of non-compliant regimes through economic warfare. The jury is still out on vaccines, and plots to induce tracking into human bodies to enforce compliance to the dictates of our “betters”. The ultra-rich need only servants, not masses of people requiring “benefits”. Monetarily, the conclusion has no doubt been reached that the global financial system is totally bankrupt and without a future. Many, myself included, reached the conclusion that only a “world currency” could effectively replace our drastically divided and failing international global trade policies that President Trump has further eroded to the point where the chances of global war are the highest since the Cuban Missile crisis of 1962. Note that we no longer hear of the once cherished ideal of “free trade”, or a “free market”. The Constitution and Bill of Rights can no longer be expected to be effective going forward, despite the naive patriotic impulses of many Americans. The 90% corporate-controlled mass media (since the 1996 Telecommunications Act of 1996) has served these controlling elements which I mention in order to brainwash our population with the acceptance of these schemes, advancement of war, trivializing of society, as well the as “dumbing down” our population, and our being channeled into the paths of materialism and greed. Since a world currency would need to be centrally controlled, I offer that I too have been unwittingly co-opted into new world order plans, since some entity (guess who?) would need to administer (i.e. effect world control) of such policies. For the ultra-wealthy our only function is to support such aims and at least not resist and violently react if we do, and to be servants to their ‘god-ling’ like lifestyles, hence the utilization of global lockdown to condition us for what the future appears to hold. The only response by Americans to such plans is simply inutterable, as we live a post-modern initial stage of the adoption of Orwellian-like control, and personal risk is great. Gerald offers one of the few places where I would dare to offer such views. Freedom of speech has be effectively abolished through social media and mass media, as the central government hides its role in eviscerating freedom of speech and association.

To my fellow commenting brothers I rarely comment and more of spectator then anything ,but in this case I have to. I served my country for over 23 years (ARMY retired) and had security clearances, I have seen how they operate behind the curtains and it is not pretty, as Brain said as negative it my sound there is no hope but the Lord almighty himself. Give them there Facebook , Corrupt T.V REALITY SHOWS , $350 dollars car payments and there Alcohol. and they don’t care which way you heard them. These ignorant sheeple think they are free cause they can choose the color of there car (LOL) I’m sorry I don’t mean to laugh, but it has come to a point were we are beyond repair and help and no one and I mean no one but the almighty himself can fix this. but he is not going cause he has given us free will and look what we have done, not only to our self’s but to our planet and each other. That TV has taught us that to love you I need to buy you $200 dollar pair of sneakers or purse or $ 5,000 diamond ring . Where in reality LOVE = time that’s right never hear anyone on there deathbed say they wish they had a bigger house or nicer cars. but more time with loved ones. TIME is love when you have time for someone IE children, neighbor, brother, sister dog, cat ETC then you know the real meaning of your presences hear on earth. All of these materialistic things that we attach ourselves to is meaningless and worthless. I grew up sharing a bed with my brother and so poor that we ate every other day BUT WE WERE HAPPY and content. what happen to us you might ask ? and the answer is man has corrupted the soul and the life of this planet. Rules for everything especially religion rules ‘s only love and care for the person who believes in what you believe all others religions are going to hell. BRAINWASHING at it’s finest folks

This analysis sounds correct. A deep state operation that is beyond nations. On the other side of the coin, if it is true that China no longer accepts USD for the sale of its stuff, then DJT is using the crisis as a cover for a painful economic reset. It is possible that China has said to American importers: pay us in silver, gold, commodities or something useful (e.g. tech patents) or no deal. This is the economic mess that Donald Trump inherited. Not his doing.

Self Reliance is the answer for the current economical meltdown. We live in a world of cheap money, cheap debt and low productivity.

Hello Guys !
When i was in India 3 Years and i told my school time friends that India is going to be a cash less society and the gold would hit 50000 rupees per 10 gms overnight then they literally laughed at me. But right within a year times the government demonetize the currency and put the restrictions on cash withdrawals also if people hoard any cash then it was illegal. They were asked to change the older currency notes into newer one but it was only with the limits to 2000 to 3000 rupees per day which is less then 30 to 40 dollars a day. Gold did cross 50k rupee mark and went near 55k. The time when i told them about this the gold was trading close to 30k to 32k rupees per 10 gms.
Government was ready with free telephone and free internet through the largest provider in India called RELIANCE INDUSTRIES”. It was a plan which was already in place before they announce this crap. The excuse government made was that they were trying to curve the ” Black Money” and put control on ” Terrorism”. In my opinion there is no bigger terrorism then government especially in a country like India.
In my opinion no country is an exception when it comes to corruption and manipulation. People been deceived all along with new schemes and fake promises. I think for myself and for my family and i think every human being should but not to deceive anyone but to plan your life ahead of these crisis.
If you can have correct trends data then you can plan ahead of time and in my opinion Trends journal is always ahead in this. I have been following Mr Celente since 2008 and i have never missed a single youtube video of him since then.

DOWN BUT NOT OUT
As a California Resident (SoCAL), I did my patriotic duty today: Went to a (closed) salon and got my hair cut by the owner and did not wear a mask ! Paid in cash under-the-table, cutting-out the State of California sales tax collectors too. Its my passive way of screwing the State. I guess this all makes me appear non-regulatory. American’s never really liked or tolerated Prohibition in the 1920’s and early1930’s, even though it was a much tougher Federal Law ( Volstead Act of 1919 ).
Well, its NOT a statutory criminal offense to not wear a mask and the police do not enforce it either. As time goes on, more people (consumers and businesses alike) need to adapt and change the way they go about business. Just because the State orders you locked-down does not necessarily mean you have to actually be frozen. There are ways around the restrictions, but you have to change the way you do business or you will fail.
Americans really need to “stand their ground” and small business owners in particular need to be willing to take-on some extra risks inorder to survive post Covid-19. Its possible to win the Covid-19 War if you are duplicitous towards the authorities.

Signs in windows that say “All credit applications approved. No credit check loans available. Instant approval” have been in American shop windows since after 2008/09. Not many, but enough to notice. Mostly car leasing and furniture. This desperation is a new low. Post COVID-19 such signs need to sink to a new all-time low. Who has any ideas or factual observations. Perhaps the Trends Team know. Negative balances due perhaps? Sale price today is $1000. You pay $900 in one lump sum after a year. Probably not. They could just cut the price to $900 and pay in a year.

Ever since 2007 – 2008 Recession, we still faled to learn any lessons from the last financial crisis. Overall debt has doubled and the debt could even triple the amont of 2008. Since then, 95 percent of all income and wealth went to the 1 percent. Big businesses keep getting bigger and the traditional mom and pop stores are becoming a thing of the past. This Corona virus gave these politicians the greatest excuse ever in terms of why we sank into the Greatest Depression the world is seeing right now.

TWO TYPES OF AMERICANS
There are two genotypes of Americans today. One, like myself, value traditional American freedoms and personal independence. So, we go outside and leave the mask for inside (grocery store). Getting a haircut is not a problem during closure, just find a “speakeasy”, as patriotic Americans never did like “prohibition”.
The other kind of American is like a House Cat (Pet Cat ). House cats want their bowl of food supplied for them at the door ( Nanny State ). House cats want to be taken care of. House cats dare not venture out alone for fear of harm. House Cats follow orders to wear their masks at all time.

May 20, 2020 Craig Bradley
DUTY TO ACT
Californians have a duty to not wear a mask while outside. It is not a statutory criminal offense to leave your mask inside, especially when out alone and not part of a group. ( Groupies need their masks ). You can find a hair salon that does business regardless and cuts hair off-hours. My forefathers never practiced Prohibition anyway, so why should I ?

Almost all of the U.S. based financial ‘experts’ are just focused domestically. The rest of the world is falling apart faster than the US and the only safest haven to put your money is the US market. On top of that as investors finally figure out that the government is not stable they will get out of any government instrument (i.e. bonds) and invest on the private side (stock market). So there will be much greater highs in the US stock market in the years to come before the US comes crashing down in 2032.

I have long wondered why an elected congressman or senator would openly vote to destroy the Constitution as in the above mentioned amendment.
My conclusion is:
1: They were bought by some corporate entity, after all it’s cheap enough.
2: The deep state has some dirt on them and has threatened to expose them unless they vote as directed.
In the case of one of my low-life senators from Florida it was most likely door # 2 as suggested in just one of many easily retrieved articles from swisscows search engine.

Have people seen stats about shelters intake and capacity in their local county, dated April/May? Having witnessed a few people move out of my ultra low cost apartment building in recent weeks, I can only wonder where they are gone. Most seemed to be home all day every day. Given that the average age is about 28, I can only assume that they moved back home, even if they are sleeping on a couch. It’s a sign of the times that city people don’t know such details about neighbors. An interesting topic this one. A key indicator. Jay

The 2008 manufactured crisis sucked the “Boomers” who were just beginning to retire (1946 + 62.5 = 2008.5) and forced the restructure of nearly all pension systems. Fast forward to 2019-2020; we enter the middle of the “Boomers” retirement (2008.5 + 9 = 2017.5) and we are looking at the greatest wealth confiscation in human history.
If anyone thinks the Banking Cabal and Company (BCC) was going to allow that wealth to be transferred to the “Boomers” inheritors does not understand the criminal elite. Now the game-plan is in our faces and it will grow worse until there is a hot civil-war and perhaps world-war.
All these things reveal the spiritual battle between moral and immoral/good vs evil, for the Bible tells us this:
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood (any specific individual), but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places – Eph. 6:12
As a moral issue within the US and also the world we are told this:
And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them. – Romans 1:28-32
There is a solution and it is this:
if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. – 2 Chronicles 7:14
Since God is the source of ALL blessing; it is STUPID to ignore Him, turn our back on Him, and blaspheme His name, for He will and perhaps is, raining down His righteous anger upon the nations.
May the Lord bless anyone who reads this and considers this and repents from their sin and seeks after His forgiveness.

Not surprising Jay. Consider what we have already witnessed and we are at the beginning of this and we are in a Presidential “selection/election” year; so the birth pangs will only grow more intense as we get closer to November.
I suspect we are going to get Covid19v2.0 sometime in late September to early October and this time the story will be how it affects “the children” and so we go to “lock-downv2.0” and the final destruction of the old world system and behold the New World System.
Remember that the two primary barriers to the NWO are, perhaps were, the US Constitution and the US middle-class and both have been and are being dismantled – now at break-neck speed.
The problem is a moral issue – we have rejected our moral compass. The judgement is found in Romans 1:28-32 and the solution is found in 2 Chronicles 7:14. We could turn this around in a heartbeat if our leaders would appeal to the nation on the basis of 2 Chronicles 7:14.

GDP primarily Tracks GOVERNMENT SPENDING. A lower GDP reflects a government not spending
your tax dollars which means to us spending less for our infrastructure and more to maintain their
the elitist infrastructure. With the spending of trillions of our future wealth it can easily be seen who
is getting what has been spent. I’m not complaining as I received $1200 which will likely be enough
to place me in a higher tax bracket or raise the tax rate the public pays to cover it.

Proposed delisting of Chinese companies (ADR’s) from U.S. Stock Exchanges suggests the decline of U.S. financial markets may already be in-progress. While such non-tariff actions, should a Bill actually be passed and signed into law, reflect the divergence of Chinese financial interests and U.S. interests. Growing friction and ill-will are likely to lead to a World War III between China (+ Russia) vs. the United States at some future date .
Many view this possible scenario as impossible but it remains a major security risk, regardless. The rest of the world may at some point tire of U.S. political antics and B.S. and choose to list their companies in Asia and not in U.S. stock or financial markets. In that event, we lose financial importance to Beijing, China. American stock markets have outperformed the rest of the world for a long, long time as it is. This trend is getting “long in the tooth”. We may reach a point where our financial markets under-perform overseas markets for a decade or two. Its a possibility.

As long as countries around the world continue to finance trade transactions in US dollars the FED can print all the money it wants. Additionally if very little of that money gets into the hands of consumers but mainly juices the stock and bond markets it will not cause hyperinflation . On the contrary it will continue to fuel deflation except in the case of supply shortages. The day of reckoning comes only when the FED stops buying or the US dollar loses its primary role in trade finance. Until then the country will continue its slow descent into third world status.

Got a hell of a shock today. Went online to find the nearest Best Buy – totally love this chain. Only one damn store in New York City is open. Online only. I don’t mind buying online, but about half of all USPS will not accept your ID if your drivers license doesn’t match your postal address. Which is ridiculous as some people move a lot. Had no idea that Best Buy was mostly closed down. I have a theory that they cannot source cheap goods from China. China wants to be paid in gold or silver. Just a hunch.

The fear of the corona virus arose because it is new ,not well understood and highly virulent. The Chinese may have reacted by closing down the country out of a fear of bio terrorism. This fear was escalated to panic by the media. While the death rate from the virus is low ,it is very debilitating and especially dangerous for people of Gerald’s age with comorbidities . Since we don’t need the elderly and infirm I suppose there are no moral decisions to consider. While I believe that the economy should not have been shut down our lack of knowledge about the virus ,the fear factor, shortages of masks and testing kits, must be factored into the decision to quarantine people. It is important to note that there are also strains with different strengths. When you look into the lungs of some covid patients it looks like glue and when it thickens it looks like tar. Its frightening when you can’t breath.

Let’s look at how ’empires’ have historically operated. There have been several, of course, the last moderately successful one being the British Empire, on which the sun never set, as folklore states. That empire went kaput when it went broke (sort of like the American Empire now). But let’s look at the grand-daddy of them all – the Roman Empire. Recall the that there was, during the founding years of the Roman Empire, a battle between the ‘plebians’ (i.e commoners) and ‘patricians’ (the aristocracy) for supremacy dated years 500 BC – 287 BC. All was settled later when the Roman Republic became what is referred to as the Roman Empire. In the late stages of the battle for some power for the regular people of Rome, it was found by Augustus that as long as it was PRETENDED that the people’s WILL was taken in consideration the patricians could go on with their basic imperial plans with little resistance, supplying the ‘bread and circuses’ necessary to sate the population of Rome itself. As Rome’s imperial adventures captured stolen booty and some of that could be transferred to the people as bread, the system could go on. When the people became, as we are now, sated by imperial handouts and no longer had to suffer war, which was taken over by mercenaries (in our case well paid private soldiers), no mass protests would occur. Rome and it’s citizens became fat, dumb and happy and the tough-skinned vandals had little trouble overthrowing the entire imperial system of the Roman state itself.
Fast forward to today. Our American populace is sated by the looting of world resources, enriched by financialized rackets, numbed by mass media inspired by Edward Bernays, co-opted by social support by our social welfare systems, not aware of global suffering, not required to participate in global subjugation, on and on. Now the fall has commenced – the games no longer seem to work – so we blame the other – Trump, Democrats, China, Russia – any one but ourselves. Where will this lead? To either a new and better system, or the end of us all. Let’s inspire real change – before it really is TOO LATE.

CALIFORNIA’S DECENT INTO 3D WORLD STATUS IS A WORK IN-PROGRESS
A young European woman was demonstrating some beverages at the local Ralphs (Kroger) Grocery Store last year. She told me she visited many grocery stores around Southern Calif. while doing in her job. She also told me there are some good areas, such as the Foothills but by and large, SoCAL is a “big shithole”. Interior cities and towns are even more shitty (depressed or dumpy) in this regard. If you live in a good area, you can deny everything else. This is why the strip of affluence along the Pacific Ocean is doing fine but the rest of the state and people are struggling. Most of the political power and influence is among the most affluent. The rest of Californians have to suck hind tit (Take what they can get ).

Especially since the 2007 financial disaster note how anyone with money outside the stock market was literally forced through no-interest yield accounts to move their monies into the stock market. Most had no intension nor knowledge of the market, hence they were forced into risky investing. Many hired “experts” to manage these changes. That can also be seen as an interest charge or fantom negative interest rate.

The British Government’s directive to quarantine for two weeks after arriving in the UK. Say What? The UK is already on the ropes, and this will kill air travel to the UK and tourism. I have always thought governments were stupid, but rarely have governments been this self-destructive! People need to let go of this entire Covid thing. I knew it was a scam and psyop from the beginning, but I understand that many do not have the background to understand these things, but if people persist in ‘social distancing’, masks, and other assorted nonsense, they will kill anything of value in their respective societies. Mass suicide is very painful to watch.

May 24, 2020 Stephen Romey
Yes, there are some good things that will come out of this entire Covid psyop, namely:
–Destruction of retails stores that were hanging on for years
— A Lot more working from home. I always thought it was stupid to commute through heavy traffic everyday to sit in an office for 8-10 hours a day, especially when many of the people in the meeting were online.
–A huge reduction in energy consumption
–The general recognition by many people that their state governments are tyrants (like the idiot governor in CA and MI, et al)
–An increase in home schooling and the move away from locking kids in a school every day
–The general recognition that the federal government is staffed by idiots (most of us knew this already, but for a few more people, the light will come on)
–Hopefully, the destruction of the massive financial ponzi that has been going on on Wall Street for decades
–The destruction of the credit system like student loans and sub prime loans that have trapped many people in lifelong penury
Yes, there are always good things that come out of destruction.

The US justice Department and the US Supreme Court missed a major opportunity to stop this lockdown/scamdemic early in the process. The lockdowns are clearly unconstitutional but Trump and others decided to ‘play politics’ and let the state lockdowns occur. Yes, this may have been a good election strategy for Trump, as the swing states will undoubtedly be more receptive to a Republican ‘pro-business’ message, however, we have a very damaged economy that will take a decade or more to repair (if ever). I am shocked that these gross violations of human rights have been allowed to occur, and are still occurring in many states. Talk about committing mass suicide!

Study Shows Direct Correlation Between 5G Networks and “Coronavirus” Outbreaks
May 4, 2020
https://gumshoenews.com/2020/05/04/study-shows-direct-correlation-between-5g-networks-and-coronavirus-outbreaks/?fbclid=IwAR3QpxvZ11R8aIm3Bz61FL4bFt341VhsLmaqv73eqD6uaqxEBMEFBt7g258
The first study demonstrating a relationship between “coronavirus” outbreaks and the presence of 5G networks has emerged from Spain and is by Bartomeu Payeras i Cifre. Bartomeu is a biologist specializing in microbiology and is working at the University of Barcelona. His original source study can be sourced HERE, and is has been translated into English by Claire Edwards (on SOTN).

These statistics are not surprising given the number of hollowed out stores that we can see on high streets. Customized furnishings that support a specific business have been gutted. A small business cannot just return to normal once social distancing laws are reversed. It can take tens of thousands of dollars and weeks to fit out one small customized family business.

May 24, 2020 Jay Jericho
I heard a Priest at a virtual Catholic Mass state that the term “Social Distancing” was not appropriate but using the term “Physical Distancing” is more accurate. I could not agree more. If I were a conspiracy type person I would think that the powers that want to control us do not want us to communicate with each other. Talking to each other might help us to understand that this virus lockdown is a hoax which was perpetrated to enable these psychos to implement the various evils designs that this virus has actually enabled. Ah! But people who are alert to conspiracies are paranoid…aren’t they or is the rest of the population asleep?????

You nailed it. I see this lack of self-preservation everywhere. As Mr. Celente says: THINK FOR YOURSELF. They do not. They want to be told what to do. I think the moving backgrounds on the TV news programs are hypnotizing them or sending them hidden messages. Go figure. What else can it be? I read somewhere a few years ago that the magazine pictures of hard liquor in a glass with ice cubes actually have hidden messages imbeded in the cubes so as to encourage the purchase of the liquor. Who knows? Sounds possible. A good/talented artist/designer could imbed messages especially in the moving backgrounds of the TV news studio programs. It is an interesting thought!

Gerald Shinzo Abe is canceling the Olympics. I don’t recommend going to Japan anyway as it is highly contaminated with radioactive isotopes from 9 years of FUKUSHIMA. Why is the nuclear energy department given ” cartel blanche ” treatment ” ? Death by radiation is a serious matter but there is nothing on the news. Maybe because the people would sue the manure out of them? Its not global warming that’s the issue but death of the ecosystem via radiation. The Pacific Ocean is already in death agony from FUKUSHIMA contamination. I don’t have any money. I am totally ruined financially. I just want these arrogant bastards to hang for their greed and the poisoning of the entire beautiful planet earth. There is a huge spike in cancer deaths and ALM leukemia here in northern hemisphere. It is only caused by radiation. I want these evil people to hang. We need an international tribunal like Nuremberg. I am a senior citizen and I know that justice is long overdue. Most people have no inkling no awareness on how bad the environment is. The fallout has killed the west coast tidal pools. Most people seem to be clueless idiots.

ON WMAL 105.9 radio Rush Limbaugh said that Barack Obama gave 3.7 million dollars to the Wuhan lab specifically to study Corona virus. It doesn’t take an Einstein to follow the money trail. I am originally from Illinois and Rahm Emanuel and Obama were considered street thugs using unscrupulous under handed tactics to get their way. It is not surprising that the embedded state saw nothing. wrong in trying to overthrow a government. Obama is a Manchurian candidate. He was under investigation in Chicago for having more then one pin for real estate deals. This was by a black private investigator who got frightened when everything pointed to Obama. We have an active “coup d’etat” going on the major players are all exposed but nothing is being done? I thought treason was a serious offence punishable. by a firing squad?

Any time there’s a new pathogen involved, I’m all for erring on the side of caution. You were right, again. The numbers coming from expanded testing seem to confirm that, while it’s deadly to certain groups, most people get few, if no symptoms. There’s a happy middle here. Isolate the vulnerable groups and the rest of us, while not being reckless, largely go about our business. Most of us can just take the precautions Mom told us as a kid: wash your hands, cover your mouth while sneazing or coughing, stay at home when sick. Eventually, assuming residual immunity in healthy people, the virus will die off on its own or become a rarer disease.

WILL IT STAY IN LAS VEGAS ?
If crime and unemployment grow in Las Vegas, NV. will it stay in Las Vegas? How far away from Vegas need one live to be safe? Fallon, Nevada or St. George, Utah ( just a 1.5 hour freeway drive away). My guess is any regional small town with a small police force will be “Open Season” if unemployed service workers in Las Vegas get hungry and restive. Bad Guys get around. I always drove through Las Vegas in the past as fast as I could and only stopped for gas. Maybe not even that if I ever hit the road again.

Commercial real estate is a serious topic – a key psychological and financial indicator. Much of Manhattan is about the world of money magic corporate finance smoke and mirrors tricks. A dying industry. It is not hard to foresee 50% or so vacancy rates in skyscrapers and other high end commercial real estate in cities like London and New York in less than 18 months. Good luck finding financiers willing to convert them into upmarket residences. Johannesburg had abandoned mini sky scrapers when I visited in 2000. 50 story buildings that were empty at the top – as evident by filthy smashed windows. It’s hard to mentally imagine this scene in Chicago or New York. The message – the party is over.

The tech industry aint making life easy for itself. Micro Tech computers at Brooklyn have six questions at the front door:

2. Have you been near another person who has been exposed to covid19?
3. Do you have a fever or high temperature?

Answer yes to any question and you don’t get let in. This seems to be a fair conclusion given that the door is managed by a security guard, not a nurse, armed with a mask, gloves and hand spray.

The free food for all school kids in New York seems like a generous, well intended program. The boxes contain reasonable food – all food groups, average sugar levels etc. On the other side of the coin, it made hundreds of thousands of families dependent on government to feed their kids, outside of other welfare programs and SNAP, because about one third of all kids’ meals aint in the family budget. Are people seeing long car queues for government food boxes in other states?

Meanwhile, while corporations save money (More profit) employees who work from home take on more expense from; lost real estate in home or apartment dedicated to office space, providing their own phone system and probable intrusion of corporate spyware (Voice & Video) into their home.

PROPER PROCEDURES WHEN IN A PUBLIC “STUPID ZONE” ( A.K.A. AIRPORT )
If an airport traveler is flagged by a remote device as possibly having a fever and then pulled-aside then at least more traditional and accurate medical tests should be made available in the Airport Nurse’s Quarters ( similar to the school nurse at the local public schools):
A traditional oral temperature measurement using a professional medical grade mercury thermometer ( absolutely the most accurate measurement tech. in Degrees F or Celsius). The procedure is to put the thermometer under the tongue for 3 minutes then remove and read. If you are then found to have a fever then shame on you. You should know better and should have stayed home. I keep two such thermometers at home. We sure don’t need a Govt. Nanny. We are now being punished for the minority of travelers who do not exercise common sense. They are out there every cruise season, unfortunately.
A second method employed with toddlers is to put the mercury thermometer in the rectum and take a reading. Same rules: 3 minutes in and then remove and take a reading. All airports need to have a Nurse Practitioner on-duty if temperature checks are to be regularly taken of the traveling public by any method.
The airport nurse can be selected for her charm and grace in what would otherwise be an intrusive procedure normally only carried-out in the privacy of one’s own home or by a trusted nurse in a physician’s office during an exam. TSA screeners should NOT be taking passenger temperatures, and neither should any other non-medical personnel either. Its a private matter. Commercial airports are already known as a “stupid zone” in which smart people do their best to avoid.

May 27, 2020 Craig Bradley
AIRPORT TRAVEL PRECAUTIONS
Laser or thermometer guns are usually aimed at the subject’s forehead. You could ‘fix’ the temperature reading by first putting a damp, cold towel or hand cloth over the forehead just prior to being checked. A low temperature reading is still probably passing, especially on a hot August day when you are active and sweating. You could fail the test otherwise. Always travel with a hand towel and a blue ice cold pack. It pays to be prepared.

The screaming headline today from the weapon of mass deception: US deaths total over 100,000. How can the people not understand that that is only 0.03% of the population? This many weeks after it has been proven beyond the shadow of a doubt that this has been a disinformation campaign from the 1% that have benefitted mightily from the crisis they have caused! Instead of these people being held to account by the public, these scoundrels have moved the goalpost for us to get our lives back. They’re telling us that we have to replace the human immune system with corporate vaccines. This is a crime against humanity, championed by these sick billionaires who have openly talked about culling the human race for the first time since the Nazis.

Issue with our species is a phenomena called Attribute Fallacy Reification. Simply put, making real what is not. Money is and will always be a man made construct for enslavement, both mentally and physically. Believing in money is just as ignorant as believing a shadow IS a THING. absence of phenomena or attributes of such cannot be reified as an autonomous modality, such as money is only “real” due to general consensus believing it is. Beliefs aren’t facts. Fact is general consensus doesn’t validate any subject matter. Poly-ticks isn’t an answer to anything. Knowledge is power, and unfortunately American’s want someone else to have power over their lives, instead of taking it for themselves. Until this changes, nothing will change. Lux et veritas.

These observations about consumer sentiment are accurate. Supermarkets may be the winners. In the past 10 weeks, I have skipped about 20 eating out meals and cooked at home only because my favorite local places don’t allow dine in. And there’s no park or suitable place near by to eat. By the time I get home, takeaway is soggy. My point is that staying open doesn’t keep sales at 100%. We can see this just looking at our own acts.

Let’s hope that authorities and the people collectively can prioritize this industry. Sea food is healthier than a lot of alternative crap – like soylent Green processed meat patties. This economist’s brain cannnot figure out how dollar stores can sell 10 ‘beef based’ meat patties for a dollar. There must be some scary explanation.

Gerald continues to have a caviler attitude towards this Covid 19 pandemic. I am not sure he even believes there is a pandemic. It this is the case what then should be the medical response . Live and let die.

I would hold out that, in the 5 months remaining until the election, the terribly corrupt Democratic Party has some sort of “event” cooking or already planned, whereby Biden will be unable to continue, and his “replacement” will be announced. Biden’s campaign is a combination of a train wreck & a sinking ship, with new gaffes occuring every time old Joe tries to say something. I’ve long believed the outcomes are pre-determined anyway. As Mark Twain put it, “if voting really made a difference, you think they’d let people do it?”

Notice how a new national “enemy” is being created, right before our media-addled eyes. Russia is apparently is no longer the ‘enemy de jure’. Saddam Hussein is long forgotten, Assad won his war and is now simply undermined, Moammar Quadaffi forgotten, too. Isn’t it amazing how fast the American people will follow the misdirection of our media and politicians in creating enemies where there weren’t enemies before? Gerald shows himself ‘woke’ on the games of the British. You know how Hong Kong became a British colony (which had no ‘democracy’ under British rule)? In 1839 the Brits invaded a weak China in order to crush opposition to its interference in the country’s political and economic affairs. Britain’s first act was to seize Hong Kong. China later ceded Hong Kong to the British, granting the Brits a 99-year lease (which is expired in 1997). Now the “west” has undermined China’s control over Hong Kong, and is now going to ‘punish’ China for ending the west’s undermining and scheming in Hong Kong. Point of fact is that China OWNS Hong Kong. They were willing to allow western capitalism in Hong Kong until the west encouraged what essentially amounted to a revolution. Whether the Coronavirus was a Chinese or American bioweapon will likely never be factually known, but the west has control of the world media and financial system and is now using those weapons in what only can be described as a WAR. So it starts. You can be sure that the militaries around the world are ready to fight, die and destroy. The sad thing is that ‘diplomacy’ is now all but dead, the United Nations has been coopted by the United States, Europe is a collection of weak vassal states, and their is no power available to start what surely will start, either by a false flag or a full-on nuclear attack. Like Gerald says – it’s the incompetent POLITICIANS at work, and we await now the inevitable.

This statement is inspiring and it is rare to see others share this perceptive view. Damned if they do. Damned if they don’t. Being in government is a nightmare.

Here’s what you do! After Covid-19!
The president will make an order:– FROM July 1st 2020. (beginning from the 3rd quarter of the year).
A). All Fed Banks are to be closed and made Illegal. With full transparency of their deals from 75 yrs
B). All the Gold reserves are to be handed back to its legal taxpaying owners.
C). A new all American public bank should print new money with legal tender basis. Backed by Gold.
D). The army and police forces will be used to oversee the new permanent trend To help honest
hard working men and women, rebuild their lives in a corrupt free banking Agency!
E) Thus. Bringing back Joy and Beauty back to the more sane Americans!
The rest of the world will follow suit.
P.S. Or just do the above PLUS!!! Wipe out all world debt. Start again. Whats the alternative I hear you say? Decades of tyranny unleashed on all of us, by the 1%, Starting with a killer VACCINE!!! Having had no test.
THAT’S WHAT WE SHOULD DO. Obviously, with professional competent help.

The EU is an interesting one to watch. Under the collapsing EU Centric one world government project, the EU got a free ride from a strong exchange rate, that was basically enforced via a global-reach mafia economy. The EU is no a serious manufacturing power base. It relies a lot on tourism – as noted in the article. Just a hunch – the EU may feel the depression worse than America. America has one government to coordinate a central response – if the red versus blue war can die out. The EU first needs to dissolve and untangle. Just a hunch – far from expert on the EU. The Duran Report (YouTube) is strong on the EU.

What the hell ever happened to the idea that as adults, we make our own decisions? I’m really upset that we as a republic are being led around by the noses by elected morons. No real qualifications to lead anymore, just another band of idiots with power. Sounds to me that since we are not working, we should hold a real 20 million man/woman march on DC and let our elected morons know who really is in charge of things. If we don’t take our country back soon, we will lose it forever.

At this point, the corporate fake news media is corrupt all the way. Nothing that comes out of them can be trusted, least of all public opinion polls. They are so easily manipulated. What the people who are being destroyed are actually thinking is a mystery.
As far as the rioting that is starting, it would seem to be that Soros and some of his cohorts have activated their mercenary armies. Shouldn’t there be a non-violent response, when violence is initiated against the people? Will the people out-evil the evil? Who benefits from the destruction that riots cause, other than the people that have benefitted from this disaster of lies?
I found it interesting that so many people did not realize that the MS in MSNBC stands for Microsoft. Bill Gates is on record telling CNBC that he is expecting a 20-1 return on vaccine profits. They’re saying the Bill and Melissa Gates Foundation is a charity. It appears to be a tax evasion scheme, the biggest in history.

I think this. I see the banks will be the next thing to go. So many not working, just receiving money from the gov’t, how many will not be able to pay their mortgages and personal loans. Since the Fed reduced the fictionalization requirement down to 0%, bank can create money for loans on a keyboard. I think the banks will start going under, and the FDIC definitely won’t have the cash to guarantee even a fraction of what is now in savings, PLUS, Congress passed “The Money Market Reform Act” back in the Obama days, that allows the gov’t to confiscate what the banks have of your savings, and FDIC doesn’t back it anymore anyway under this law (as I understand it). So. The question to me is, where is the best place to keep my money assets? Not in dollar bills under the pillow, in the ground or a safe. Gold, silver, toilet paper, booze, etc. But what about large savings amounts. Definitely don’t leave that in the bank to be confiscated when they fail. My view is to invest that money into shares of a company that has been in business for a long time, that also produces products that will always be needed by the majority of consumers. I could be wrong, but the way I see it, if I have my savings invested in good shares of a company, assuming the gov’t doesn’t nationalize industries like the Soviet Union, if the banks fail I still have an asset interest in those companies. BITCOIN? No way! If things get out of control like they have the last few days as a result of the Floyd death in MN, how long would the Internet remain functional to carry on BITCOIN trading? BITCOIN would be worthless to anyone, even the holder. I don’t think the local farmer would be willing to take BITCOINS for some eggs, chickens, milk, etc., but would take a bottle of booze, toilet paper, or some fractional ounce silver or gold coins in trade. And, ammo will always have value, especially if total anarchy does rear its ugly head all over the place. If it gets really bad, even the whole stock market will cease to exist, then it is every man/woman for himself. Living in the country has its benefits, for sure! Gardens, water, chickens, eggs, and fresh air without any MASKs!

We were warned by economic reality during the 2008-2009 crash that we needed to collectively change our ways and end the debt-based financialization of the economy, and President Obama instead decided to back the banks, require no behavioral change, and let the financial shenandigans proceed on “steroids”. President Trump encouraged the financial rackets with his obsession with making financial markets rise. All this followed President Clinton’s NAFTA, Commodities Futures Modernization Act, repeal of Glass-Steagal, on and on. In our arrogance, we assumed that we were the be-knighted generation, immune from the laws of economic reality, and we proved this to ourselves with our wealthy classes as the example to follow. In addition, in our arrogance we felt qualified to tell other nations what they had to do, via regime change and sanctions. Now we have reached Nemesis – the Greek god who enacted retribution from those who succumb to hubris. Good news? Now the system will HAVE to change for the majority to survive.

Politicians are losing their credibility at an alarming rate. They are now becoming apprentice dictators. It has been a slow road to awaken Americans but with the coming Depression that awakening will speed up. It is not their fault since they rely on the media for news about the world we live in….so they are totally confused. But the stark reality of the coming Depression will severely slap them into its grim reality. Too bad people have to learn the hard way but again it is not really their fault. If they spent more time praying and going to Church they would be enlightened by Our Savior but they prefer their worldly endeavors in lieu of spiritual experience. Rejection of God and His Church is absolutely foolish.

Central Bank Digital Currencies Highlight Bitcoin’s Value Proposition
Bitcoin’s growing popularity, the digitization of payment systems, and the demand for stable coins have prompted countries to explore central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). In the wake of COVID-19, CBDCs have also been discussed as a way to improve stimulus distribution. CBDCs are sometimes viewed as synonymous to, or as replacements for, digital currencies like Bitcoin, but they represent a meaningful departure from the decentralized protocols inherent to many cryptocurrencies. CBDCs attempt to upgrade payment infrastructure while Bitcoin is an attempt to upgrade money. If CBDCs gain traction, they may actually bolster the value proposition for Bitcoin and other digital currencies. As the discussion around CBDCs intensifies, it’s important to understand what they are, how they would work, and what the implications are for investors.

Carrol Quigley – the bankers’ plan
(Carroll Quigley (/ˈkwɪɡli/; November 9, 1910 – January 3, 1977) was an American historian and theorist of the evolution of civilizations. He is remembered for his teaching work as a professor at Georgetown University, and for his academic publications.) [ http://www.carrollquigley.net/ ]
“The Power of financial capitalism had [a] far reaching plan, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.
This system was to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences.
The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s central banks, which were themselves private corporations.
Each central bank sought to dominate its government by its ability to control treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence co-operative politicians by subsequent rewards in the business world.”

We’ve built more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communications; We have become long on quantity, but short on quality.

Re WeWork – a few months ago it was revealed that the owner of the company (Kushner’s pal) was using the value of his stake in the company as security on personal mortgages for the properties that WeWork was renting. He is, in many cases, the landlord to whom his company owes the rent, and he seems to have off-loaded much of the company’s financial responsibilities onto Softbank.

Indeed. It was also widely reported that a good number of the alleged hijackers weren’t even in the USA at the time and it was just their identities that had been used.
“Since the worst attack by a foreign enemy on American soil took place on 9/11, both the mainstream media and Washington have made concerted efforts to underreport the fact that 15 of the 19 hijackers involved in the attack were Saudis.”
To be a little more relevant this paragraph should read:
“Since the worst attack by a foreign enemy on American soil took place on 9/11, both the mainstream media and Washington have made concerted efforts to underreport the fact that every bastard involved in covering up and obfuscating the truth about this heinous crime is intimately connected to Israel.”
The Saudi patsies/identities connected to the 9/11 attacks are just a Mossad/Ziocon smokescreen.

Absolutely true. If you live in a big city, good luck finding a cheap 14″ laptop under $300. Most (certainly not all) are on back order. Desk tops seem to be easier to source. Those located in regional/metropolitan areas away from big cities may fare better. Example: Best Buy doesn’t have one laptop computer under $300 available in NYC for collection. If you drive 15 miles away, you can pick one up. Notebooks may sky rocket in price in a year from now, if it is true that China will only swap exports for real stuff like gold, silver, platinum. Or military technology, of course. A serious issue to consider – buying a spare notebook now.

You are not the first one predicting we are headed for a civil war. But you aren’t calling out the incendiary left-wing thugs like Antifa. They are seen coming across state lines, paying people to riot, and pre-positioning bricks to throw. Unless you condemn the violence you are part of the problem and not promoting peace. The other stuff about government policy supporting the rick and screwing the little guy is right on. But the left-wing politicians and main stream media that criticize everything that Trump does and divide and conquer every minority group is equally to blame. Why don’t you call them out?

I hate it when Gerald is right (again), he said that the ruthless murder of Mr Floyd was the “spark” and here we are.
We are more vulnerable to unrest than you might think. In Canada this Winter, the indigenous people were protesting a pipeline. They blocked all east-west rail traffic for several weeks. Their actions crippled Eastern Canada because the rail links provide vital supplies. They were hit with a bitter cold snap and rapidly ran out of propane. Something that started as a political dispute quickly turned into a “critical situation” that affected everyone.
I only know this because of my friends who actually delivered emergency shipments of propane from the US. It received near zero coverage in our media because of the virus hysteria.
Remember, that a much of our critical delivery systems of goods and services have already been damaged by the Three Stooges Shutdown Show put on by our power mad governors and a brainless president. In such a weakened state, it would not take much to cause serious problems that affect EVERYONE. The elements of a perfect storm are gathering. We really need strong leadership to get everyone to stand down or we might have to pick out a barrel to wear.

All of us need to take the time necessary to recognize that police brutality has gone on for far too long. However, civilian brutality against police has gone far too long as well. Officer Derick Chavin has been charged with murder of George Floyd and will face trial. The other officers were also fired from their jobs and could face charges too. That’s what was needed to be done. We don’t need motolov cocktails, bricks and rocks thrown through store windows. What have retailers done to cause such behavior? What have other businesses done to be burned to the ground? We don’t need police cruisers being flipped over and fire bombed. Because the taxpayer will pay for all of the damages to precincts, police vehicles and other equipment. We don’t need Antifa to wreck havoc on cities and towns. We don’t need those who fund Antifa and other malevolent and regressive movements. There’s no need for send verbal and written threats to each other. We can’t afford anymore destruction because we’re already facing the Greatest Depression of all time! Most of all…most of all, we don’t want a second civil war in the United States. Because if we do, then it would be the last war the U.S. will ever fight. Our nation could desintergrate just like the Soviet Union did back in 1991. If that happens then we all lost and lost forever. Because if the United States collapse, then our way of life will be gone forever.

This is only part of an overall domino effect of how this Greatest Depression will ravage our way of life. Shutting down businesses and other establishments due to COVID-19 will cause the worst surge in unemployment we’ll ever experience since 1929. Now that these businesses and retailers are slowly reopening up, marauders looted and destroyed these retailers, who could likely go out of business and cause more layoffs! Now foreclosures and evictions will put millions of people out into the street with no money and burdened with monumental debt. Federal aid will be exhausted as the government will be entrenched with the largest annual deficit in history. Defaults on loans will skyrocket as banks and other lending organiations struggle to survive and could go out of business as well.

ANALYSIS: George Floyd was deliberately murdered, right on schedule to unleash race riots across America to cause even more chaos
Friday, May 29, 2020 by: Mike Adams
(Natural News) After reviewing the videos surrounding the arrest and killing of George Floyd, it’s clear to me that he was deliberately murdered. I understand there are different interpretations of what happened, and new evidence may emerge that will alter my view, but based on what I’ve seen so far, it seems abundantly clear that Mr. Floyd was deliberately murdered in broad daylight……..etc.

Who is paying these domestic terrorists? Follow the money trail to find out who or what organization is behind these idiots. They are being played and payed for their derring-do as they were in the past riots. Our DOJ in the past and possibly now has been or is either asleep or controlled by the Deep State or the unseen powers that be who make up the Pyramid of Power, i.e., The Committee of 13, The Committee of 300, The Illuminati, The Bilderbergers, The Masons, The Council on Foreign Affairs, The Trilateral Commission, The Federal Reserve, other Central Banks, The Club of Rome, etc. and all of the other secret societies that are interconnected and working together for the New World Order to bring down the U.S. so as to enable it to be folded into the One World Government which they have been hard at work to establish for several hundred years.

In this mother of all depressions climate, people might keep their cars for more than 10 years like our grandparents did. What is the average age of a trade in in America? Four years? My grandparents had two cars in 40 years and they were quite well off. In a nutshell – this may be the new norm. A handful of survivors like Kia, Hyundai.

It will be interesting to see how this region fares, whose economy is based on oil and tourism (a handful of countries). Ironically, less people may starve in such well off countries, if they have already prioritized their economy towards a self sufficient model: food, water, energy, medicine, defense (latter unlikely).

LOVE is the state of being of the universe. All of the living things in the universe are wired to emit love energy. We feel it when spring comes… When flowers bloom.. But all living things are programmed to do it all the time. The leaves of the trees are emitting LOVE. The birds soaring and singing are emitting LOVE. That is what we are born to do. That is what we see in our little children when they will just hug everyone they meet. This is the state of being of the universe. We must give out love always..always . It is not a moral or selfish possession that we give out so that you owe me for it, or I owe you for it. It is the highest form of energy…thus can only be defined as “the state of being” of the universe. So we must love and then always..” do the right thing”. Our hearts will guide us..
Now let us look at George Floyd .. He stuck to love and had faith and was only going to do the right thing. So those officers possessed by evil and working for the devil MURDERED him. So with LOVE we must “do the right thing” What is “Doing the right thing” in this situation? Immediately these officers are fired as they are incompetent “civil servant ” police. And immediately they are indicted for ” MURDER” Strike down evil wherever you find it…We must do the right thing, always.

June 3, 2020 Abdul M. Rahaman
Hate or any other form of evil is a mistake. Never give up an LOVE… the state of being of the universe. As God told the devil ..I love you and I wish the best for you, but you have no power over LOVE. So with George Floyd we must do the same. ” Do the right thing” completely and with LOVE. If the police state throughout the world has lost its way and is systemic in protecting property instead of people…then it has to go. If the Federal Reserve has taken possession of the peoples money instead of the peoples government as the U. S. Constitution specifies and is stealing the peoples “increase” as Jesus pointed out in the temple …..then they must go. We are not hating on anyone when we carry out these missions….we are just doing the right thing …with LOVE, faith and conviction…We are not going use evil and tap dance with the devil and hate the police or hate another race….”forgive them lord for they know not what they do” We will just continue, ask God to help us, and “do the right thing … Strike down evil wherever you find it. This is what George Floyd, God bless him, wants us to do. We love you, man.

The Covid 19 or Corona incident was a major planned con on the world’s psyche and cover for tanking economies (e.g. inaccurate tests, fake numbers of the ill reported in medical centers here, and around the world, Most, if not all deaths recorded as Covid 19 ( Jon Rappoport forecasted this would happen), encouraging the use of respirators which kill people – $39,000 per use), promotion of wearing masks which limits oxygen, and encourages the re- absorption of one’s own numerous bodily viruses, social distancing meme nonsense ( remembers me of “weapons of mass destruction” perpetrated fraud).

I love and respect Gerald but I am surprised by his take on this situation. BLM and antifa-like groups are behind these riots, they are not an organic grassroots occurrence. There is funding and organization behind this and it all begins in academia and is championed by the mainstream media. This is part of a communist plot to take over the country that’s been ongoing for 100 years. The media controls the narrative and who controls the media? The notion that America is a systemically racist country is simply not true and police brutality is color blind as the statistics show. But facts don’t matter when you have control of the narrative. We have become a nation of uninformed, and just as bad, misinformed SHEEP.

WHO Offered $20M Bribe To Poison COVID-19 Cure – Madagascar President
By GreatGameIndia – May 16, 2020
https://greatgameindia.com/who-offered-20m-bribe-to-poison-covid-19-cure-madagascar-president/
The President of Madagascar Andry Rajoelina has accused the World Health Organisation of a plot to have its COVID-19 Organics, the local African ‘cure’ for the virus poisoned. Rajoelina claims WHO offered a $20 million bribe to poisoned their medicine, Tanzania Perspective reported on the front-page of its 14th May edition.
The President of Madagascar believes the only reason the rest of the world has refused to treat Madagascar’s cure for the coronavirus with urgency and respect is that the remedy comes from Africa.
In an interview with French media, President Rajoelina reportedly said he has noticed what he believes stems from usual condescension toward Africans.
“I think the problem is that (the drink) comes from Africa and they can’t admit… that a country like Madagascar… has come up with this formula to save the world.”
“What is the problem with Covid-Organics, really? Could it be that this product comes from Africa? Could it be that it’s not OK for a country like Madagascar, which is the 63rd poorest country in the world… to have come up with (this formula) that can help save the world?”
“If it wasn’t Madagascar, and if it was a European country that had actually discovered this remedy, would there be so much doubt? I don’t think so,” said Africa’s youngest head of state, the President of Madagascar Andry Rajoelina.
The remedy, COVID Organics, is made from Artemisia, a plant imported into Madagascar in the 1970s from China to treat malaria. Artemisia has had proven success against malaria and according to President Rajoelina it can cure COVID-19 patients within ten days.
However, the WHO has criticized such natural therapeutic measures against the coronavirus as blind faith. In response to the skepticism with which the WHO is treating the COVID Organics, Rajoelina said, “No country or organisation will keep us from going forward.”
A host of other African countries including, Tanzania, Guinea-Bissau, DR Congo and Niger, have imported the Madagascan made recipe.
Meanwhile, in yet another African nation Nigeria, Bill Gates has been caught bribing forced Coronavirus program. Based on an intercepted human intelligence report, a controversy has erupted in Nigeria whereby it is revealed that Bill Gates offered $10 million bribe for a forced vaccination program for Coronavirus to the Nigerian House of Representatives.
The Madagascar controversy has erupted days after Tanzania kicked out WHO after Goat and Papaya samples became COVID-19 Positive. With the rise in false Coronavirus cases, the Tanzanian President John Magufuli growing suspicious of the World Health Organization (WHO), decided to investigate the claims himself.
He sent the WHO samples of a goat, a papaya and a quail for testing. After all 3 samples came COVID-19 positive, the Tanzanian President is reported to have kicked out WHO from the country.
Following the Tanzanian lead Burundi also kicked out entire WHO Coronavirus Team from the country for interference in internal matters. In a letter addressed to WHO’s Africa headquarters, the foreign ministry says the four officials must leave by Friday.
Looks like WHO’s days in Africa are over!

Nobel Prize Winner Says We Have COV All Wrong
By M. Dowling – May 3, 2020
https://www.independentsentinel.com/nobel-prize-winner-says-we-have-cov-all-wrong/
THE POLICY OF HERD IMMUNITY IS THE RIGHT POLICY
“I think the policy of herd immunity is the right policy. I think Britain was on exactly the right track before they were fed wrong numbers. And they made a huge mistake. I see the standout winners as Germany and Sweden. They didn’t practice too much lockdown and they got enough people sick to get some herd immunity. I see the standout losers as countries like Austria, Australia, and Israel that had very strict lockdown but didn’t have many cases. They have damaged their economies, caused massive social damage, damaged the educational year of their children, but not obtained any herd immunity.“There is no doubt in my mind, that when we come to look back on this, the damage done by lockdown will exceed any saving of lives by a huge factor.” —-M.

When the world goes cashless, which I pray it never will, (a lost cause now), You can bet your bottom dollar, as a normal saver, that you will not get any interest, but may even have to “”pay interest”” for putting your fake money in a fake bank. So you’ll end up looking for a low interest bank, Which the laughing banksters will love!

The Federal Reserve has its own printing press that enables it to print as much money as it wants. Isn’t that the same thing as counterfeiting? In one case it’s legal and in another case it’s not. Steal an apple and you’ll get beaten to death, but steal a whole country and you can become its ruler. And isn’t it ironic that the deficiency in the money supply is due to this very game that the Federal Reserve has concocted? We have got it backward. Let the petty thieves and robbers go and put the politicians and bankers in prison and then law and order will arise naturally.

THE BIG LURE
Contrary to the conventional wisdom, gold is not a defense against inflation per se but instead, a hedge against a collapse in confidence in the markets and the government by a majority of Americans. Similarly, the Quantity of Money Theory is not the primary driver of inflation, rather inflation is but a symptom of a total loss of confidence on the part of consumers and investors. In a crisis, investors hoard cash. As the stock markets rebound and go on up further, more investors leave safe assets like Treasury Money Markets and to into risk assets such as stocks and real estate.
Consumers and wage earners still remain shell-shocked from the 3-month long lock-downs and now riots and curfews are in no financial shape to be going-on shopping sprees. Instead, many are saving as much of their earnings as possible, if they have any, for a very uncertain future. Consumers are not going to be the marginal buyers they once were. Nope. Money velocity in the real economy is still at record lows (comatose) and likely to stay there for the next 5 years.
The reason we had a Repo Market crisis beginning last Sept. is because the global debt markets had become increasingly concerned with bond duration and most importantly, growing credit risk. So, the market by itself was pushing-up short term rates (yields). The FED then started printing brrrrr and propping-up the Overnight Repo Market with $ 100’s of Billions a day. Now, the FED has dramatically tapered-down their monetary injections in the Repo Market to “only” $15 Billion a day. Currently, there is little demand for short term money at such low interest rates (near Zero) and instead, this money is migrating back to the Wall Street Casino, as it was prior to Feb this year. FED actions have worked for now. However, one day after investor confidence in the financial system is permanently lost, this monetization of debt will no longer work and the market will suddenly demand a large risk premium for low rated debt and sovereign debts alike. That is when the trouble really starts.
“The Rich” will pay the ultimate price because many government bonds will default or miss interest payments, causing rating agency downgrades due to deteriorating economic conditions and declining tax revenues. In fact, this is already a work in-progress in many states. The U.S. Treasury may be forced to intervene to prop-up insolvent States and Cities, and buy Muni-Bonds.To date, the promise to buy low rated Corporate Debt (BBB) and Corporate Bond ETF’s has NOT occurred. The FED did not buy them.
The Bond market is behaving as if they believe the FED “has their back” when buying BBB Corporate Paper. Maybe they do but maybe not. We will find out soon enough. Buying anything in this environment, unless you are an experienced and well informed trader, is probably risky business to say the least. Buyer beware. The Trend could shift or reverse at any time. Surely investors have at least learned that hard reality by now.

You know, GC, after 10 years of memorizing the King James Bible, I have come to learn that the meaning of life is truth, peace and love. But the meaning of death is lies, violence and greed. This is the choice that we face as a world right now.
In regards to another issue that is facing us: forced vaccinations. It is impossible for me to be more against such an idea, but I realized the other day that Alan Dershowitz unfortunately is legally correct that the government can force you to take a vaccination. I, as well as the rest of my family, was forcibly vaccinated by the government when we immigrated to this country from Cuba in 1969. It was the price of admission, and we had no choice. The actual vaccine scarred our left shoulders permanently as proof that we had taken it. And in recent years I was shocked by my best friend when he told me that if his kids were not vaccinated, they couldn’t go to public school. This is not a matter of fighting forced vaccinations, what we have to do is overturn the governments’ unconstitutional right to stick a poison in our body.

What we are seeing is Round 3 of the fight for world globalist control. Can’t help but notice how we have had 4 years of attempted coup against President Trump, who is not on-board with the post 9-11 permanent world war designed to perpetually fund the military-industrial complex. Notice the phony “war” the US is supposedly fighting against their own creation, ISIS, in the Middle East, designed only to destroy the Syrian state and cement US bases in Iraq used to threaten Iran. Notice how the Iran nuclear agreement proved that Iran had no nuclear weapons program, and the whole nuclear treaty situation was used to bring Iran to heel, as well. All globalist plans – Trump’s hatred of Iran is strictly personal. Notice the phony MH-17 situation caused by Ukraine’s obvious shoot down of the airliner, designed to align all of Europe with US aims to destroy Russia itself, and the proof in the courts that snipers aligned with the blatant US coup in Ukraine plotted to kill both police and protesters in order to stage the final overthrow. Now the globalists want to proceed with their mad schemes to control the entire planet afresh, getting Trump out of the way, Sleepy Joe in, to issue their commandments, right up to the Soros-backed riots occurring on the ground right now, after three years of phony investigations into non-crimes beginning the day Trump assumed office with the General Flynn persecution (as opposed to prosecution). The Obama administration is now proven to have begun the psy-op to destroy the Trump administration days before he assumed office with the ‘unmasking’ of Flynn and the beginning of ‘Russiagate’. Notice how Biden said he was not part of that until it was pointed out that he was in the meetings and signed off on the unmasking. You didn’t see our Imperial Corporate Media make a scandal out of that, did you? Meanwhile, our Goebbel-esque media fans the flames to incite the masses to overthrow the ‘Orange Man’. Now the masters of ‘Slavelandia’ return to their favorite marketing scheme: pumping up the ‘markets’ (sic) to convince the rubes of a new normal. Will Round Three work as well as Round 1 (up to the 2009 crash), and Round Two (up to coronavirus psy-op, failed impeachment, and now orchestrated rioting)??? Not likely, of course. The great wheel of history turns slowly. Somehow justice will prevail and corruption will cease at least of the mad globalist plans, and a new era will begin. Until then, we need to simply sit back and watch the doomed show. Grab your deck chairs, the ship is going down while the band plays on.

We the people agreed to create a government under the U.S.Constitution, The free people created a loose network of government that would gently control the god given freedoms that we were given at birth and run the United States. The new citizens knew that 99.9% of the people wished well for themselves and all living things A loose government would let us evolve and flourish. The executive, legislative and judicial branches would insure the the good people could keep and organized government from abusing the good intentions of almost all of the people. The corporations used some tricks to establish that they were also the people. But they are not humans they are money driven organization that do not have the love and heart of the people. That love and heart of the people was an important part of the how the government of the people would keep itself running. A corporation cannot sit on a jury and cannot vote in an election or referendum. Yet they want and have the rights of human citizens. Here is the 800 pound gorillas in the mix. These are the psychopathic entities. No love except the love of money. Money and property are their gods, They are not humans…They are not born with love and compassion to guide them. The Constitution says “we the people…” the Constitution depends on “we the people”. Property is important and secured when it is the peoples’ property or the peoples’ possessions…their earned “increase”.There are no corporate citizens..Citizens must be human and have god given hearts and minds. The love of money is the root of all evil. Be Americans, Love and do the right thing…and the systemic evils will disappear. Love y’all…..

Possession of and spending a false bill does not equate to a crime because the possessor and spender
may have innocently received it from another.
The officer who supressed Mr Floyd, to my observation, was mentally ill/psychotic at the time of surpression. This is not meant as a defense, but an observation. The deepest fault lies with the authorities who did not train him and other cops who transgressed over the years. The killer cop’s defense will be insanity.

The American citizenry has given up its power to the “polititutes”. Those citizens who know that immunity is nec to remain healthy are safer. The Facism reflected by the merger of big pharma with government will be studied in future college books, (providing the govt does rise higher in its stranglehold over us).

Aside from the theme of the essay – Dr. Beuchamp, who lived during Pasteur’s time, developed the “polymorphism theory of disease”. This postulates that all microbial disease arises from within the victim due to its corrupted terrain (tissues blood, etc). Beauchamp said that each human has in its blood “protits”, which can morph, when terrain is degraded, to viruses, which then can morph into bacteria. This is called “pleomorphism”, (many forms). In live blood cell microscopy, the protits are visable. In standard medicine, the protits are disregarded. Pasteur developed the “germ theory” of disease, that the microbes come from outside the victim.
Bottom line is we should keep our immunity H. I. G H. Whether microbes come from within or outside, H. I. G. H immunity is a nec defense against them.

5G and pollution don’t cause Covid, however they can exacerbate the effects of the virus. The biggest vulnerability anyone has to a virus or bacteria is a poor immune system, which would describe most of the people in United States, especially Native Americans who live under horrible conditions.

Every time I wear a mask my nose starts itching…for hours. No one understands what you say wearing a mask, especially when ordering food or at the store. Check out the Healthy American YouTube channel. She went through the resources listed on the CDC website supposedly supporting mask wearing. Not one of the reports had any scientific evidence that it is beneficial. How do the politicians get away will saturating the media telling us to do something that is not fact based. Encouraging people to harass people that don’t wear the stupid mask. I like fresh air, I want to be able to breath air which is just about the last free thing left in this world.

Here is a recent list of policies that restaurants in Toronto will have to implement in order to prepare for opening. I have no idea how any small businesses can even make a profit with such rules in place. Since dining out will no longer be a fun experience the booze binge at home will be the new normal for this abnormal summer.
What restaurants should do before they reopen
The city has provided a pre-opening checklist that included a number of specific recommendations to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. These include:
Wash, rinse and sanitize all food.
Ensure all hand washing stations are adequate and functional.
Clean and disinfect all non-food contact services like door handles and equipment knobs.
Ensure adequate amounts of sanitizers are available.
Clean and disinfect all washrooms.
Additional measures restaurants should take to help prevent person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 include:
Maintain physical distancing by keeping customers and staff at least two metres (six feet) apart.
Frequent cleaning and disinfection of all contaminated surfaces.
Keep logs of the name and contact info for all customers and staff with a check in time.
What restaurants should do to prepare the physical space
The design and functioning of the physical restaurant space will need to be updated to ensure the safety of everyone. Here are some of the guidelines recommended.
Rearrange or remove seating and tables, or mark as unavailable so that all tables are a minimum of two metres apart between each edge of every table and that no more than 50 per cent of the rated capacity of the restaurants is available for use.
Consider reservations only.
Limit each table to a maximum of six customers.
Remove waiting area seating, and create a process to ensure that customers stay separate and maintain physical distancing while waiting to be seated.
Demarcate floor with markers for any areas where a line up may occur.
Keep chairs well away from high traffic areas if possible.
Rearrange equipment and/or processes in the kitchen and other areas used by staff so that a two metre distance is achievable at all times. If not feasible, staff must wear masks.
If necessary, rearrange pick-up by servers to maintain distance.
If necessary, install barriers such as Plexiglas to protect staff or customers.
Remove buffets and self-serve locations.
Reconfigure break rooms/areas and eating areas for staff to physically distance.
Install directional arrows at entrances and exits if possible.
Erect signage for physical distancing, passive screening and any policies affecting them.
What the restaurant policy should be with face masks
Restaurants are encouraged to have their staff where non-medical face coverings in all indoor spaces. It is up to the discretion of the restaurant whether to require customers to wear face masks at all times, except when eating.
What protocols restaurants should develop
Restaurants are recommended to develop a detailed list of protocols what will allow them to safely operate. Some of these include:
Policies for how restaurant reservations can be made.
Policies for payment such as non-cash payment only.
New menu practices such as single-use paper, online menu that can be accessed via mobile devices, menu-boards, chalkboards, or regular menus cleaned between uses.
Do not pre-set tables.
Utensils should be rolled or packaged.
Replace regular condiments with single-serve versions, or sanitise between uses, consider disposable napkins.
Reconsider staffing protocols such as staggering shifts, breaks and lunch breaks, update absence policies, and new protocols for back filling absences.
Post signs on handwashing, physical distancing, reporting symptoms, and make them visible to staff and customers.
Clean and disinfecting all surfaces and equipment including key touch points and objects (e.g. food contact surfaces, hand contact areas, door handles, switches, table tops, chairs, sneeze guards, restrooms, taps, utensils and dispensers), shared equipment such as credit card machines and cash registers.
Consider installing devices such as automatic doors and lights, or electronic taps.
Supply dispensers for hand sanitizer (70-90 per cent alcohol concentration) to staff and customers, including at the door.
Minimise unnecessary contact between customers and staff. Place clearly visible numbers on tables and ask customers to seat themselves. Minimise the time staff spend within two metres/six feet of customers.
What restaurants should do to train staff on new policies
Since a number of new protocols and rules will be in place, it’s important to train staff how to best serve food, maintain physical distancing and avoid unnecessary handling. Some recommendations include:
Considering serving to front of table and let customers distribute, avoid handling coffee cups when refilling, let customer fill/pack leftovers in containers.
Install directional arrows to direct employees and minimize direct contact.
Practice physical distancing during breaks.
Assign staff to specific tasks and minimize contact between them.
Ensure staff have access to gloves and masks as needed. Train staff in proper use of gloves and masks. Gloves are not essential, but, if used, must be changed frequently and hands washed between uses.
Encourage frequent handwashing using the correct technique, and to avoid touching face.
Keep a staff log of when and where staff worked, with contact information, in case it is required for contact tracing by public health.
What restaurants should do once they reopen
Once a restaurant has reopening it’s important they maintain the safe operation of the physical space. Here are some of the guidelines:
The owner/operator, or another person appointed for that purpose, should be present and checking to ensure adherence to protocols.
Screen staff for signs and symptoms of COVID-19. All measures must be taken to ensure staff are well before interacting with customers and colleagues. Ensure that active screening of each employee occurs before each shift.
Do not allow staff members who are sick to come to work. If staff are sick they should go home and stay at home. They should also be advised to complete the COVID-19 self-assessment tool and/or contact their primary health provider and get tested.
Ensure customers are physically distancing while waiting; have them wait outdoors when necessary, but ensure that they do not impinge on the space of diners on the patio.
Customers who exhibit symptoms of COVID-19 should be refused entry. Display posters telling customers if they have symptoms they cannot enter.
All customers must be seated; service to standing customers is prohibited.
Make sure that tables are cleaned and sanitized at least daily and between sittings.
Maintain cleaning and sanitation logs.
Consider opening doors and/or windows to increase ventilation.
Live music is prohibited. If restaurants provide recorded music, they should turn the volume down.
To assist with tracing contacts of COVID-19, make sure you obtain a first and last name and telephone or email address from one person in each party. Keep this info on file for at least 30 days. You may also be required to post a notice about data collection.

Who could imagine bailing out banks, quantitative easing, zero interest rates, negative bond yields, buying corporate junk bonds, etc. –
Maybe someone who predicts future trends and happenings. I’m not seeing (yet) any signs of the greatest depression on the horizon. Stopped at Home Depot today, the manager told me they’re exceeding their monthly sales plan by 400k (pre-COVID plan). I have a job ad out seeking skilled labor, can’t find anyone to plug the holes.

I just read today that the average new car loan is a record $33,750 and the payment is a record $597 a month. The average used car loan is $20,300+ and the average payment is $390 a month. Both are records.
How on God’s green earth are these loans getting approved? Answer: the FED is shoving taxpayer money into banking system and the banks have to do something with it!

In my household, my wife has serious asthma respiratory conditions as a result of respiratory or flu sickness in January and is fearing a relapse as a result of COVID-19. She has bought into the scenario of the politicians and accepted the new-normal as the future and will follow the orders of the Federal Government, State Of Colorado Governor and County Supervisors, and local City Council politicians. I refuse bow down to the control freaks and have a tendency to voice my opposition to the many rules that are not my view as normal behavior!! Needlessly to say, I am NOT popular in my own home and will face a lot of mental pressure to submit to a world view mentality!! I guess I am too stubborn to realize I must kneel before the police and politicians.

Today I saw and heard Catherine Austin Fitts describe the failure of Free Market and Free Trade advocates to share the wealth and economic freedoms the Oligarchs and Banksters enjoy as a result of COVID-19 lockdowns and bailout funding cash interest free while the masses pay high interest of 16% on credit cards and excessive bank fees. This acts as a way to fosters the wide gulf in income between the General public and the ultra-wealthy.
After the lockdown, most societies around the world and America have realized we are in a box and with politicians using police brutality, they hope to go further in controlling the populace’s. We are in for a hot summer of unrest as Sharpton has stated to unseat the current Federal Administration and the so-called criminal establishment. It seems no one remembers what has transpired during the Clinton, Bush, Obama Administrations and look forward to a socialist regime being elected in November. I fear for my Nation!!!

Not to get confused with Blackstone, despite managing 539 billion dollars in assets; I heard of BlackRock a couple of months ago. A whopping 7.4 Trillion Dollar portfolio? This is definitely the clubhouse for the 1 percent. I recently learned that The Vangard Group has a 6.2 trillion dollar portfolio. In the not so distant past not even the major banks ever managed such assets like this! Not to mention that today’s hedge funds and asset managing firms would’ve eaten Gordon Gekko for breakfast. It only goes to prove how the rich are getting richer at the taxpayers’ expense.

Markets: Financial relief and bailouts are here. Reality: The Mom and Pop ships didn’t receive anything.

The riots, looting asoning and vandalism destroyed businesses, who were making final preparations to reopen this week. Now it’s likely that these businesses won’t open at all. Thousands of stores are due to be permanently closed down due the the social distancing and shutdowns of businesses. What burns me up is that these politicians knew that the Greatest Depression to ever take place in human history was coming toward them like a shockwave! They had no answers as to why it happened, however the people know why: Income and wealth disparity, political corruption, bailouts for the banks and multinational corporations at taxpayers’ expense. Crony-capitalism, lack of opportunities for wealth mobilization. Not to mention the ever decaying value of the dollar forced both parents in many families to work. Young children need to work to pay bills. Despite ever growing productivity of the big businesses, income and benefits for labor continue to decline as the top level management receive enormous raises. Now these politicians could attempt to blame the virus for the depression, although we know the real reasons and could see through their bullshit.

The Hegellian dialect known as: PROBLEM, REACTION and SOLUTION has been the principal strategy to fulfull the globalist agenda. Every challenge we faced was created by those who wanted the proper reaction from the general public, also known as ‘the masses’ so they could propose a predetermined solution they wanted all along. The globalist and Satan share this trait. So the next time we have a challenge that affects us emotionally this PsyOp is most likely planned and executed by the very people who could be the literal reference of the antichrist.

The U.S. ecomomy took off like a rocket ship! The 1% lifted off Cape Canaveral, Florida and penetrated through the lower atmosphere. The 99% watched as they remained financally stagnatged at best and most of the 99% fell ever deeper into debt due to job loss or reduction in working hours. The 1% experienced the weightlessness as they entered Low Earth Orbit thanks to their enourous wealth gain. The Central Banking Space Agency developed the Space Shuttle BlackRock, which maintained its structural integrity as it orbits the Earth. The World Bank Space Station came in view before the Plunge Protection Team provided their guidance to dock from the IMF Space Center at Houston. It’s been a great achievement! This will mark a special day for the 1% as they recieve the Bailout Medal for their exceptional courage! The 99% often referred to the masses, went home to lackluster of ever growing debt and ever diminishing prospects and opportunities.

A frightening thought of how customers don’t pay the merchants because these politicians shut down the entire economy. Then the merchants can’t pay the landlord. The landlord can’t pay their expenses. Combine them all together and there’s little tax revenue to be paid to the government, which only amounts to greater deficits and debt. This is a lose – lose situation for all of us.

One annoying fact is that college is no guarantee for career advancement. Unfortunately it’s not what you know; but who you know. You could have the highest honors in any university, if you have no connections to the right affluent people in your chosen industry, then you’ll most likely settle for a measley, dead end job that has nothing to do with your chosen major. However, you could be a semi-moron and if you know the right people, then you’ll have ample opportunity to thrive in your desire career.

Has anyone seen those dead mall series, by seriously champion YouTubers like Sal? Where they walk around a massive 1980s built mall during peak hour, and the music plays over the speaker, and there are about two shoppers with shopping bags and two zombies in the mall. That is what it feels like to be inside a shopping mall like 42nd street underground metro on some business days at peak hour. Ghostly. Eerie. An interesting experience. Hopefully it will go away and soon.

This morning in the Bronx, at 2am, I am dead sure that I hear a series of pistol shots, about six, followed by a volley of automatic gunfire (like 12 or so shots in two seconds). Wasn’t totally sure, so I went outside. Took me a minute to get dressed. By that time, I heard/saw multiple cop cars screaming down the end of the street lights blazing. Hopefully this is just a one-off and that no one was heart etc. This is not normal. Well, I think. Not a long term resident here. Anyone else have any stories? I live very near a major National Guard food dump depot, but I don’t think that was the target, going by the cop car direction.

In an economy awash with debt, and contractual obligations, a chain reaction of defaults through different industries/players (renter, property owners, banks) is inevitable. When most are in the same boat, it clogs up the courts, and massively delays forced sheriff evictions. Kind of like having no money to pay rent, is the norm, that it’s not an embarrassment or a sign of business failure. Crazy world.

I work for a supplier of all kind of masonry products and outdoor sidings. We’ve seen a boom in our business when they reopened the economy for the construction workers. There is also a trend in home renovation. People know they’ll be more at home and many have cancelled their vacations so they improve their living at home experience. But now, there are much less orders coming in starting end of July for commercial projects (which is a big part of our sales). New projects are on hold, downsized or posptone. We had a round table with many other businesses and the common trend is this: we fear what’s coming after July.

Speaking of trends, it seems that mass hysteria fear porn has skyrocketed just in the last week in mainstream and alternative media outlets. As far as I can gauge, the burning of the cop shop in Twin Cities was the excitement trigger. I avoid all those click bait “Apocalyptic Scenes – America Ablaze” junk stories. The truth is in this journal.

Brilliantly succinct Jeremy. An article said something about “the top 10% of Americans are among the smartest of the smart in the world…and the bottom 90% are the ….” etc. CNN and Facebook have a lot to answer for. Gerald often talks about the food poisons. I live in the SNAP 50% unemployed hood and I see many families shopping each week filling up their trolley to the top: Pringles, Gatorade, Frosties, Kit Kat, Frozen Pizza, Ice cream, Pepsi. Kids and families. I wonder how many people have seen the movie IDIOCRACY. Highly recommended. Free to watch at

Gerald rightly said one or two weeks ago that he could see the media warming us up to this second wave with their transparent junk headlines like EXPERTS PREDICT NEW WAVE WILL HIT IN JULY (not Gerald’s actual words – just this theme). It was a good call, as this was obvious about two weeks ago. Now this crap is even more obvious. First wave mania is wearing off. The George Floyd responses are cooling off. A new panic story is needed by fake news CNN etc. Same old, same old.

Big demand for “precious’ metals is part and parcel of a system and way of life destined to prove the true worth of these items – ZERO. As it stands now, their value is a PSYOP. When our materialistic lust predicated on Earth liquidation finally brings the ecosystem into unstoppable decline, you’ll find your warehouse full of gold won’t be worth a cellarful of superfoods and clean water.
The larger game is being missed by Gerald and Co, including Gregory, because of focus on “Drama,” or symptoms of the problem. For example, Gregory says the new normal is a psyop, proving that he (and Gerald – although he might know but not acknowledge) don’t understand that the old normal was also a psyop, and one brought here by another psyop: The People’s Revolution. bringing on toxic, pathological, materialism and wealth-based “prosperity” as freedom and “success.”
Truth, however, is that truly free nations were genocided to make way for the illusion of freedom called the Land of the Free. But it was the Land FOR Free – stolen, in other words. Probably 100 million indigenous were murdered to bring Western Whitey “civilization” (and his diseases) to this hemisphere.
What’s the larger game? A global total-surveillance governance and direct human-control system coming, not geopolitically – the niche in which Gerald ensconces himself to operate, while not acknowledging its controllers – but in the technosphere. The foundation of that is also a primary eco-destructive force called wireless technology. If we don’t quit that life-negative energy, we’re doomed. YOUR phone is THEIR weapon.
The game’s not being orchestrated by the Fed (with the other elements of the private/central banking system), but by the creators/controllers of that system – the global power structure – whose death grip (debt/interest-bearing debt) on nations and people IS the legalized innate crime of private banking.
There has never been in modern times any such thing as a free market. Nor is the Fed “the most powerful organization on the planet” by any means. It’s just a tool, like its boss the BIS, and its cohorts, World Bank, IMF and World Economic Forum. All orchestrated by Elite power having been shaping technomasturbating western society for thousands of years.
For Gerald to attribute what’s happening, including with COVID, to politicians and the media as policy makers is either deception or naiveté. What’s coming fast is “1984” on techno-steroids. And as long as we swoon over (toxic) technological progress/materialism and fret about portfolios, we’ll be playing the role of the Hamelin rats.
Sustainable Development? Clean, Renewable Energy? PSYOPS – for maintaining the Elite’s Earth-sacrifice for wealth, power, and control. And by the way, that’s not the 1% but more like the .00001%, a longstanding gaggle of generational psychopaths running the show. Like John Lennon said: “Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we’re being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That’s what’s insane about it.”
The Journal was going in a great direction when Derek Osonenko managed content. But Gerald canned him and turned it into a weekly Drama story soap opera. Gerald talks a good game about peace, without noting that our very way of life is incompatible with it – and justice, and even survival.

IS THIS A GREAT FINANCIAL CRISIS v.2.0 ?
Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLO’s) are the ‘hand grenades’ that could blow-up the financial system once again. CLO’s are structured similarly to CDO’s ( Collateralized Debt Obligations) Morgages were just prior to 2008-2009. CLO’s are loans given to uncreditworthy businesses and corporations that can not get a bank loan or issue bonds for additional financing. ( They are known as ‘Zombie’ Corporations ). Banks own a bunch of them ( $ Billions) and keep them hidden from investors in off-balance sheet “variable interest entities”. Wells Fargo, for example, is said to own $29 Billion of the best of breed CLO’s ( the top tranche or AAA rated part).
As in the Great Financial Crisis, the problem is the quality of the individual CLO holdings which generally are far from AAA and are often BBB and below. In a prolonged, multi-year financial unwinding, the loss of capital at the large banks could eventually cause a failure, as was the case with Lehman Brothers. We will be lucky if no TBTF banks fail in this business down-cycle. If they do, this won’t be just another recession- it will be a Depression and not a minor one either.

Both posts above by Kupper and Pepper1 show great passion and seriously, some good points. I think both arguments are not partially or entirely mutually exclusive.
It is difficult to know which economy will be harder to salvage. An export economy that lost its major export market – for now, anyway. Or a mostly internal services, import sector nation. Both may face the same problem. Just a guess – both may aim to adapt their economies to securing internal security as a priority – food, water, energy, military, medical and full employment security.

My elderly mother in IL fell and is in a nursing home while she recovers. She cannot have any visitors and the nurses and docs and physical therapists must get fully covered up each time they go into her room. She is so depressed – she just wants to see people’s faces and be able to talk to them as if she is a normal person. And she wants to see my brother who can’t visit her.
Is this HUMANE treatment? No! Would people treat their pet dog or cat like this? No! I know that the same questions were asked about the nurses at the Nazi camps – how could they sterilize the ones deemed not fit to procreate. And the same was asked about the China labour re-education camps. How could some just sit back and watch others starve. Same with Russia’s pogroms and slavery in the US, and the treatment of Aussie aboriginals.
Why are we so afraid? Where is our humanity?

After 9-11, people in all of the world’s “democracies” gave up the protection to unreasonable searches and seizures – i.e. seizures of person, property, or correspondence without probable cause.
How many people, when they go through airport screening and have a nail file taken away from them because it’s got a pointy end that could, oh my god!, hurt somebody, have even considered filing suit for an search and seizure without probable cause.
And how many ACTUALLY think that the over-the-top security crap is actually keeping them “safer”? And yet, we all (including me) obediently shuffle through the pat down and the luggage search without a peep.
Hell, no wonder the powers could get away with this lockdown – i.e., people voluntarily gave up their guaranteed rights to freedom of movement, freedom of association, and right to privacy (this included because of the currently voluntary contacting tracing).
It’s happening all over the world and with such EASE. I’m still astounded at how EASILY and QUICKLY it happened.
I used to get so frustrated at the war remembrance parades and shit. Honour the “heroes” for their “sacrifice” to “ensure our freedoms.” Seems to me that people have forgotten completely about those freedoms and are willing to surrender them without nary a thought. Sad, sad, sad.

I’m absolutely cautious whenever someone says, “biological agent”. However, even the CDC’s own numbers don’t justify the lockdowns, now. It’s also obvious that a lot of hospitals cooked the COVID patient books to get the COVID fueled insurance money.
This smells more and more like a psyop from the “color revolution” playbook.
I can’t get over the Orwellian bullshit on the mainstream media. How stupid can you be to believe that bullshit and hypocrisy? One week, you’re killing granny if you go outside without a mask. The next week, it’s OK to burn and riot shoulder to shoulder with radical communists looking to overthrow the US government without a mask; you won’t get COVID. Not even 3 days after the riots seem to die off, the mainstream media isnow hyping up a “second wave” where we need “to lockdown and wear masks”. Hmmm. I wonder why we have a “second wave”? I guess COVID is a “racist deplorable”.
Wake up America! We are being lied to, again. This is the billionaire’s “final solution” for us.
Those rioters, I mean protesters. . . Let’s be “politically correct”. . . They are pawns and useful idiots for bigs. They shpped you the bricks, made sure that you had well trained intelligence assets directing you, appealed to your emotions, and got you to do their bidding. If the MSM is publishing gushing support for you, you’re not “anti-establishment”
Now, these “protesters” are the perfect host vessel for the vaunted “second wave”. “Protesters”. . . They *used* you.
This is good old fashioned political race baiting. Don’t fall for it.

What I have found to be the most incredible thing in the last couple of weeks is to see the degree of control that the weapon of mass deception (which is corporate fake news) has over the people. As this illegal lockdown stretched on, churches in California sued all the way to the Supreme Court saying this was unconstitutional. Just as the riots which are funded by these tax shelters were unleashed on the street to cause mayhem, and distract from the fact that the Supreme Court under John Roberts ruled that there is no freedom of religion or assembly in the Constitution, the Supreme Court ruled that we do not have freedom of religion or assembly. That these are simply privileges that can be revoked at any time. John Roberts, who swore an oath to defend the Constitution, has found in this document that we have to pay insurance companies profits, but we have no right to freedom of religion or assembly. The next day when Americans should have been in the streets screaming treason, these tax shelters unleashed their mercenary armies, and the very Americans who were betrayed were calling for the Deep State to fix things. Their control over the people is breathtaking.

The lack of freedom in society is due to the concentration of political power into a centralised system. There is too much centralisation of power and a large body of people under their rule. Aristotle I believe, says somewhere that for democracy to work, there must be a limit to the size of the social unit. When the size is too big, the voice of the individual is nullified, it becomes irrelevant. People as a body are also sheepish by nature. We tend to think and behave like the rest of the herd. Therefore, large social units become very easy to control. Even the states themselves are too big. Here I am living in Victoria Australia and there are over 6 million people living in this state. Who gives a crap what I or any individual thinks on any of the important matters save the political idiots and the media parrots. If anyone says anything, “Who are you?” some rich man will say. “You’re just a poor boy who lives in that little house. If you were worth anything, you would be rich like us and be able to employ large numbers of people.” And that’s all we are to such people, a statistic, an animal with a number, used to provide some service in the land of slavelandia.

It’s come first circle. Remember the day democracy actually died in the United States? Thats when the Supreme Court made a non-precedent ruling stopping the counting of legal votes. December 12, 2000 (Bush v. Gore). Then 9/11. Full blown madness leading to an official sanction for perpetual total global war, which by definition could not be won, so therefore forever. Jimmy Carter started that in 1979 at the behest of the neocons when he had America support the mujahideen against the old USSR in Afghanistan. Yes, the same country we are desperately trying to leave over forty years later! Now we use similar groups in our Middle East policies, openly I might add. Look at the mess in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq. Also, look at the Citizens United ruling in 2010, cementing monetary control of what remained of the democratic process in the United States. Farther back, we now seem to be in a nostalgic craze for the return of 1968! We even have a an equally crummy, but better than the President-like Eugene McCarthy in the admittedly deficient candidate Biden. Remember when the Democrats got to power in 1992 and 2004 and how little of the present “leftist” agenda they enacted. There wasn’t one! Now we are nostalgic for the “recovery period” of the post-2009 America – utilizing eerily similar strategies which failed to create a viable economy after 2009. Once the trillions stop pumping into the so-called capitalist markets, the music will again stop. Like Wednesday past and the 1800 point drop. Reops forever or bust! Luckily we have this forum on Trends Journal. Our opinions may have a salutary effect of those contemplating the “red pill” or the “blue pill” like in the movie “The Matrix”. Our information sources are now fully controlled and the spectrum of opinion narrowed down to the absolute boundaries of ‘politically correct’. We have mobs now “demonstrating” who would topple a statue of Voltaire, if one could be found – you know, the guy who said that he might disagree with what you said, but he would fight for your right to say it. Now, we are hearing that the Constitution itself needs to be replaced (since ‘slaveholders’ wrote it). Certainly our mass media would consider that reasonable. Funny thing is, if the Democrats take control in November, imagine how bad they will further screw things up! Remember Obamacare? Recall the phrase ‘you broke it, now you own it’. Non-stop impeachment efforts from the first day of the Trump Administration. You think they will have hell to pay from Republicans if they win? One more thing – the taxpayers are now on the hook for the Federal Reserve’s stock and bond buybacks – when the holders benefited from the pre-COVID19 market boom, they kept all the proceeds. Now they are having their losses covered, and if those stocks and bonds don’t recover, who do you think will pay back those billions? – yes! the taxpayers – those hard working members of the so-called middle class which our betters are now destroying. Good luck with that!

I suggest the the only “hard assets” that will always have value are not those proffered by ruling classes and aristocrats – and thus fiat as well (pronouncement or agreement) – such as metals, but those with intrinsic – that is, survival – value. That would be such as clean food and water, clothing and shelter. When those are in short supply, I guarantee their value will easily surpass gold and silver by orders of magnitude, because their fiat value will then be zero.

While attendance at various (essential businesses) Houses of Worship temporarily increased in the weeks immediately following the 9-11 Terrorist Attacks, it did not last very long. Most Americans soon went back to their ordinary routines and forgot about God. We all just carried-on and went back to “business as usual”. Meanwhile, our political and social decline continued to progress.
We all thought everything was fine last year because real estate and the stock markets were near their all time highs again. Unemployment was near record lows, but still, things really were not right. State Governors like Gavin Newsom in California had undue confidence in their State “Rainy” Day Fund, as well as their performance in-office. Then came the cold season last Winter and suddenly, the whole world changed overnight. No longer business as usual.
We are not going back to the previous ‘normal’ any time soon, if at all either. Until ‘The People’ change their priorities and values, no lasting relief from growing despotism and burdensome post Covid-19 regulations imposed upon every citizen and business. In just two months, we have gone from Freemen to slaves living in Slavlandia, as Gerald Celente often reminds us. If we want our freedoms and liberties back, we first need to change our core priorities and cultural values back to what they were many decades ago. Black Lives Matter and other protest actions and social causes are not going to suffice. First change yourself and then worry about others or the State of the Union.

Well, let’s look at vit D again, where recent data showed that low levels resulted in death but higher levels protected. Vit D is vital to proper immune function. So what about blacks? They have the lowest levels of vit D because of their dark skin. They need much more sun to make the same vit D as whites. We get so little sun exposure, nearly everyone is low. And low vit D is linked to diabetes, heart disease, allergies and pneumonia, the same risks for covid deaths. It’s painfully obvious how simple a solution it is. The other factor is low zinc levels. Zinc kills virus’. HCQ opens a zinc channel so adding zinc with it stops the virus (in it’s early stages, much harder after that). See Dr Zeleko on youtube. Such an incredible scam to suppress these cures.

Phillip makes a great point that being a college graduate is no guarantee of success or landing a job. On the other side of the coin, I am aware of so many basic administrative officer roles (entry level), that may lead to a serious career, that only short list someone holding a four year degree. Perhaps another way of looking at this, is to say that holding a degree is no guarantee, once you are placed in the short list pool. Of course, millions of non grads find their niche and do well drawing on their skills, experiences and passions. This for sure is a hot topic to watch. So many magnificent college towns like Chapel Hill and Bloomington that could become about half empty. They cannot all survive by switching to online. A college running at 25% physical capacity can run at 200% physical enrollment capacity, by switching to online. So many of their staff just work from home. Anywhere. Even possibly in Antarctica.

It seems that Europe earned much from its glorious tourism, college education exports and mafia fake financial services. All three will unlikely fare well in the next few years. Europe may rely too much on cheap imports and has lost too much manufacturing capacity. It is hard to imagine Western Europe resembling Brazil. Keen to hear from people who know more about Europe.

The US government & The military industrial complex have been studying the art of ” mind control ” for years. The commercials, t.v. shows, movies. They have created fear through what we watch on T.V. and going to the movies. Even radio programmes back in the day.The fear of a atomic bomb. We the American people are subjects to experiments over the decades, and now we are witnessing the results of those tests

The people who worked all shifts, overtime, went in on there day off. Saved to send there kids to universities & colleges. Saved to take a family vacation. Mom & pops who worked harder and longer to have the nice house & pool & lawn. And they are getting screwed.

Gold Ribbon for you. You nailed it.
Government spends, spends, spends frivolously with out discipline, waste, waste, and more waste without accountability, corruption, corruption and more corruption without prosecution.
When I was a kid we were taught about the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS. Mr. Celente says: ” When people lose everything, and have nothing left to lose, they lose it. ” Our society after the Great Depression of the 30’s recognized the concept of the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS and began to correct it by enabling, not via socialism, but by honest and fair distribution of wealth to mainstreet. After the 1980’s our country’s leaders seemed to have forgotten about the HAVE NOTS and it has been getting progressively worse ever since. Now we see the unemployed ticked off because they have been laid off and they are being coaxed on and organized by the socialist/communist trouble making organizations, and have latched on to racism as their riotous cry because of their collective feeling of helplessness. In my opinion, what they are really angry about is that they don’t see a prosperous future because of the injustice of the past 30 + years in the unfair distribution of wealth that Mr. Celente has talked about in the past. So it is the same old story, to my mind, throughout history of the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS. This has been going on for centuries but mankind never seems to learn from history. The corporations and governments need to search their consciences, if they have one, and ask themselves what they have done to deny mainstreet their fair share of the pie. WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE! And before we are drawn into WWIII as Mr. Celente has so accurate shown could be down the road instead of the proverbial can. What is the answer? In my humble opinion, our country needs to get on its knees not for secular reasons as we have recently seen, but to worship, pray and plead to Our Lord and Savior for guidance and intervention while at the same time asking for collective forgiveness of our grievous past societal sins, (and there were too-o-o-o many) especially in our culture disdain of following the 10 Commandments. God help us and may He wake us up before we really tick Him off and He turns his Sacred back on our world and allows us to stupidly and rapidly feed our own demise. VIVA CHRISTUS REX!

Adding to Mr Tocci’s comment about your phone being their weapon, I live in Sioux Falls, SD. John Thune is one of our 2 Senators. Sioux Falls has recently had 5G installed. I have information from a reliable source that our city coucil had no say in the matter. They were read a statement from our city attorney, which basically informed them that Senator Thune had acqluired a grant, or whatever, to have this done, and they were to vote ‘yes’, because 5G was coming and the vote was just a formality. Sioux Falls is home base for 2 large hospital systems, Sanford & Avera, and a large pork producing facility, Smithfield, as well as a huge banking hub, due to lax regulations. Citi & WF have large operations here, in addition to a host of banking institutions. Just sayin’

How many BLM members, ANTIFA, peaceful protestors, whatever, were all up in the air about social justice when our very most powerful leaders, the policemen of the world, carried out murderous wars based on lies, gave themselves the authority to have anyone assassinated, including legal citizens of their own country, and popularly elected leaders of countries who were of no threat to anyone – Gaddafi being prime example. Where is the outcry for social justice for the starving people of Yemen? Do their lives matter? As long as might makes right at the most highest levels of authority, you will see it trickle down from there.

THE LIMITATIONS OF ONLINE LEARNING & REMOTE WORKING
The often overlooked reality is not all lines of work or courses of study lend themselves to be entirely conducted online. For example, any upper or lower division (hard) science class, such as chemistry or botany REQUIRES a weekly lab. Its usually 6 hours a week and for that you get two of the 5 units of credit. Similarly, any kind of trade requires “hands-on” training to fully develop marketplace skills.
Professional programs in allied health care services have similar requirements along the way. So, a more practical expectation is a new curriculum comprised of part online and part in-person training or in college “labs”. Now, there is still plenty of room for innovation, especially at the public or State Universities. Crowded parking lots and red tickets in your window for overstaying could become a thing of the past. Exams, of course, must be taken in-person with a proctor to control student cheating, as usual
The real question is how motivated are public universities and colleges to such innovations in the classroom and dispensing of education. The old Prussian Model is well ingrained. Existing facilities may drag their feet and oppose full migration to online classrooms. Recent talk of “forgiving” student loan debt is just going to increase “moral hazard” and continue to subsidize the status quo for longer than otherwise would be the case in education. As overall cultural decadence and complacency sets-in, true modernization will be limited to specific market niches. This may or may not include education, at least public education. Teacher unions will undoubtedly have a say in how it unfolds, as well. Generally, public teacher unions want more money for less work. That much can be anticipated.
Colleges could have satellite classrooms outfitted with the equipment necessary to conduct traditional training in the lab portion of a science course. The other aspects of the curriculum could easily be conducted online and with video. Courses structured especially for online learning would even be more effective ways to teach, beginning in elementary school. You have to start young to get true generational change anyway. This has been the strategy of the Marxists in America and the public school systems since the early 1930’s. That is why they are commonly referred to as “progressives”. The socialists keep gaining yardage over time, incrementally. America will continue to drift leftward regardless of the way education is delivered to students. Garbage-in, Garbage-out ( Grievance Studies, for example at Universities).

I remember an interview with a native American name Russell Means, it was titled Welcome to the American Reservation Prison Camp. In the interview, he stated that ALL Americans are living on one big Indian reservation. The same tactics that were used against his people were “exported to the world and now comes back on the backs of the American people.” Yes, ALL LIVES MATTER. However, no one truly cares until the problem shows up at their front door. This is the reality of the world today. Needless to say, I know Gerald has spoken about this for years. With that said, I subscribe to the Trends Journal to stay up to date with world affairs and trends. Other than that, I tend to “think for myself” as Gerald says.
Last, I’m reminded of a French saying that states the more things change, the more they stay the same. We have to accept some harsh realities, which I know can be very difficult.

NOTE IN THIS LETTER (see below) FROM PRESIDENT GEORGE WASHINGTON THE CLEAR DIFFERENCE IN HIS ATTITUDE AS OPPOSED TO THE ATTITUDES OF PAST PRESIDENTS IN THE LAST 100 YEARS. IT IS LIKE NIGHT AND DAY!
From George Washington to United States Congress, 23 December 1783
(Resigning his Commission)
23 December 1783
The great events on which my resignation depended having at length taken place; I have now the honor of offering my sincere Congratulations to Congress & of presenting myself before them to surrender into their hands the trust committed to me, and to claim the indulgence of retiring from the Service of my Country.
Happy in the confirmation of our Independence and Sovereignty, and pleased with the oppertunity afforded the United States of becoming a respectable Nation, I resign with satisfaction the Appointment I accepted with diffidence—A diffidence in my abilities to accomplish so arduous a task, which however was superseded by a confidence in the rectitude of our Cause, the support of the Supreme Power of the Union, and the patronage of Heaven.
The successful termination of the War has verified the more sanguine expectations—and my gratitude for the interposition of Providence, and the assistance I have received from my Countrymen, encreases with every review of the momentous Contest.
While I repeat my obligations to the Army in general, I should do injustice to my own feelings not to acknowledge in this place the peculiar Services and distinguished merits of the Gentlemen who have been attached to my person during the War. It was impossible the choice of confidential Officers to compose my family should have been more fortunate. Permit me Sir, to recommend in particular those, who have continued in Service to the present moment, as worthy of the favorable notice & patronage of Congress.
I consider it an indispensable duty to close this last solemn act of my Official life, by commanding the Interests of our dearest Country to the protection of Almighty God, and those who have the superintendence of them, to his holy keeping.
Having now finished the work assigned me, I retire from the great theatre of Action—and bidding an Affectionate farewell to this August body under whose orders I have so long acted, I here offer my Commission, and take my leave of all the employments of public life.
MdAA.

This PLAN-demic was orchestrated to cover up the severe monetary crisis which is forthcoming. Notice how they are blaming the virus instead of the corruption of the Federal Reserve and the banksters. What a fraud. It would not surprise me to find out sometime in the next year, when the dust clears, that many of the worlds leaders were paid millions to lockdown their countries. Of course, you won’t find that out in the mainstream bulls**t media. I believe that there is already a country in Africa where the President was offered 10 million $ to lockdown his coutry and he told them to stuff their money….well you know where. How could all of the world’s countries fall in line simultaneously? How is that possible unless this was orchestrated by the Committee of 13 and their subordinate organizations. This whole PAIN-IN-ASS-demic was planned to enable a transfer of wealth to those who really run the world.
Henry Ford once said that if the American public understood what the Federal Reserve was all about there would be a revolution the next day. The working stiff gets stiffed once again. The deprived get more deprivation. The satanists get less competition from the Christian Churches. The hospitals get more money from Medicare. The older folks die before their time and their relatives are lied to about the cause (Corona virus). The population stays at home and gains more weight by eating their frustrations and depression away. The politicians become apprentice dictators and learn how to fine tune their dictatorial efforts. And the beat goes on. The out of work helpless millienals and blacks get so frustrated for lack of jobs, money, food, etc. that they hit the streets as a last resort and use the race card as a good enough moral excuse to riot, destroy, make violent statements and attempt to garner power and to be heard as no one wants to listen to their cries for help. Instead of the government handouts going to those who really need them, as usual, they screw it up sometimes by mistake but mostly on purpose to enrich the already rich. Welcome to the NEW WORLD DIS-ORDER as Mr. Clemente so wisely calls it.

Gerald – Am I correct when I say that the big corporations have gotten double the bailout during the lockdown?
First, they get a money injection from the financial hardship assistance from the CARES act or whatever it was.
Second, they get more money from the Fed buying their bonds.
Isn’t this double dipping? I’m not an economist, so appreciate you clarifying if I’m wrong. Thanks!

Gerald – I am writing to you from New Zealand, home of the ‘bubble.’ I am sick to death of it. I am staying with friends who had other friends over for dinner the other night. My friends agonised over who to invite so that we could stay under the “total allowable of gatherings of 10”. When the friends came to the door, they shook hands saying “Isn’t it great that we’re allowed to shake hands now?” followed up by general sighs of relief and “yes, we dodged a bullet, didn’t we?”
I was so disgusted, I almost threw up.
Our PM (Jacinda Ardern) is the PERFECT cover girl for the powers. Young, attractive, a new mother – of course she cares about you, look at what a lovely young mother she is! She wouldn’t do a thing to hurt you or take away your constitutionally guaranteed rights.
Again, I’m so sick of the ignorance of the human species I could vomit.

CURTAILMENT OF TRADE AND COMMERCE
The reason for the regulatory disorder is a lack of leadership. President Trump has chosen the road of letting the states manage their own houses or affairs. This means some states (Blue States ) have sanctuary cities while others may not. These kinds of policies were operating in the background but did not interfere with doing business, so were overlooked by most Americans as “just politics”. In the end, nobody much cared.
Covid-19 Restrictions is a new ball game that affects everyone but it is most disruptive to trade and commerce. This is applicable both at home domestically and with foreign suppliers, as well. So, a small local business like a restaurant that has little of no debt and owns its building rather than leasing has an advantage. In contrast, a large chain or franchisee who operates across jurisdictional boundaries has a bigger and more costly management problem. In addition, I suspect individual unit managers now have more paperwork and regulatory responsibilities post Covid-19.
Bottom line: all this is disruptive to interstate trade and I believe is therefore inherently illegal ( Interstate Commerce Clause). Still, no one person is in-charge and willing to pursue the legal aspects of differing state regulations and restrictions concerning Covid-19. Local small businesses can possibly learn to adapt and put-up with the inconveniences. Their customers or clients can also learn to do likewise or stay at home. Many will just withdraw from the marketplace and economic growth may suffer for it. That is a leadership choice in the end, as an inaction or no answer is an answer or action of its own. All this did not just “happen” on its own.

Governor Andy may have aspirations of becoming the Governor of North America, if future U.N. Global Governance is allowed to transpire. Many of the policies instituted by the “lock-down leaders,” appear to reflect those same policies promoted by the World Economic Forum (available at their website). Note that the former “Red” designation associated with Communism, has changed to “Green,” after the fall of the USSR. Both Governor Andy, and former Mayor Michael, appear to be loyal followers of the U.N. Policies. The duo apparently made the pilgrimage to Rio Earth Summit several years ago, where concerns over population-growth/reduction were one of the top priorities of the pseudo-intellectuals within the U.N. establishments.

A TALE OF TWO CITIES
Whether its a recession or depression really is determined by each individual’s personal experience. If your neighbor’s business suffered a decline in revenue or he lost his job is not considered a recession by many individuals. However, if you lose YOUR job then its a horse of a different color ( a very Dark Horse indeed ). All about perceptions and experience. ” It did not happen to ME” is a very common way of viewing the negative economic news. Nobody really wants to deal with the reality of it all, so the psychological defense mechanism of “denial” often kicks-in. We are in denial for the most part.

Noam Chomsky: Israel = USA

There are green zones in the USA. You can look up GOODIES WORLD ATLAS to see the numbers of wealth, population, number of doctors to per thousand, age = all that demographic. We all know, that no man is island. Thus no rich community is either. Mass suffering and sorrow all around a green zone will be felt and even with PRIVATE Security – you will feel it and hope to god you never leave or find yourself outside the green zone.
Psychologically people are breaking now. Loss of income are now, for even with the cash flow, teeth, medical and car repairs as back payments eat that money given. Projection: Private Security will now be the order of the day: Ex- Special Forces men and Good Officers from busted down Police Departments will run those zones. Compounds in some cases.
Rents will come down as people flee the Cities. They will remain high in the Green Zones in rural areas. Van life is already taking off before this: Power Grab and Destruction, thus what we call homeless, will the rule of the day.

Starbucks was probably an obvious casualty of any serious downturn, as it is an over priced luxury. As much as I love their over priced frappucinos, it’s not suitable for regular visits for this low budget cow due to it’s over priced menu. A $20 gift voucher bought a frappucino, cookie and a small foccacio. As Gerald says, it’s the coffee aint even that delicious. Nice looking stores, free wifi and cute staff – to be fair. An interesting case study to watch. The mark up on their coffee is about X10 or higher (1000%).

Like Starbucks, this is a great choice for a case study – as an industry. When the purse gets super tight, a lot of people realize that they can jog in the park and do sit ups on the lawn for free. Some cities have free community swimming pools. A gym membership is largely about social status and a social outing for many. Good luck to them. Was a member for years.

This crash is not meant to restore the old order, but to usher in one of Orwellian-on-steroids stature that includes a global surveillance state and direct human-control system coming in the technosphere — only secondarily geopolitically. There will be, as in the planned Great Depression and other busts, an enormous transfer of wealth.
Trends has carefully deleted several article of mine, but one remains (not my fave) as an example of past awareness now hushed. Wireless technology is the foundation of the surveiallance/control system, which, if we don’t quit, nothing else we do will matter. https://trendsresearch.com/beyond-your-health-5g-wireless-technology-destroys-jobs-environments-liberties/ See also the section “The Real Reason for the Wireless “Season”? in “Wireless Technology: Ultra Convenient. Endlessly Entertaining. Criminally Instigated. Terminally Pathological.” https://www.activistpost.com/2019/02/wireless-technology-ultra-convenient-endlessly-entertaining-criminally-instigated-terminally-pathological.html
The crash, long planned and coming anyway, can now be blamed on a scapegoat “necessity” called COVID-19(84) lockdown. https://www.activistpost.com/2020/06/problem-reaction-solution-how-covid-19-leads-to-global-governance-complete-control.html Gerald merely touches on this aspect, while naively (or slyly?) blaming politicians and the media for what is an operation of the global financial elite. The .00000001%
Handmaidens of the Elite (as creations thereof): Wall St, banks, corporate monolith, militaries, media, international intelligence community, protective Government agencies and more – all infiltrated. See Antony Sutton, “America’s Secret Establishment.” Kevin Phillips, “American Dynasty” (Bush clan).
Mr Celente/Trends also speaks of peace and justice, but always omits the fact that our way of life driving the economy, which is his lifeblood of his reporting, is completely incompatible with same. Because the US doesn’t have within its borders the hard resources to provide for this toxic, preposterously extravagant indulgence, the military has from the beginning been engaged all over the planet in paving the way for the corporate rape and poisoning of the planet (extractivism) for control of such resources. https://www.azquotes.com/author/2273-Smedley_Butler
This was foretold in Zbig Brzezinski’s “The Grand Chessboard,” wherein it says that he who controls the resources of “Eurasia” controls the world, which is exactly the wet dream of the 00000001% And what they have been using the USG to accomplish from the Founding forward. Here’s Wesley Clark telling of the ‘Pentagon’ plan to invade 7 countries in 5 years. He doesn’t say, of course, but motive is ultimately the same. Both China and Russia know this score.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RC1Mepk_Sw
Of course, for these Elite psychopaths, whose royal and aristocratic bloodlines go back thousands of years, war need have no other motive than war. War, the Earth-eating/poisoning industrial sector, and “Conehead” consumerism confer ever more wealth and power upon the already wealthy and powerful (the former does not ‘mean’ the latter), ensuring their continued control of technomasturbating “civilization.”
Nothing has changed fundamentally, as we see with Venezuela and Bolivia, the latter being eyed for its lithium while Congo is devastated for its cobalt – all to provide for the “low-carbon” but “high insanity” future, featuring massive increases in life-negative electromagnetic fields from wireless tech, the utter stupidity of EV’s, and all the rest of the shiny TOXnological future.
Bottom line, as a manipulated and nurtured construct for advancing the Elite Agenda, the system itself is the problem – a corruption designed to be further corrupted, even as it provides “prosperity” (predicated on Earth-liquidation) and survival. Like conventional medicine needs disease to be needed and profitable, therefore curing nothing, Trends needs chaos to be needed so isn’t inclined to analyze fundamentals, but sticks with “Drama.”

With other professionals. Or worse. Living in their RV or sleeping in a tent in someone’s back yard. Most don’t. They just shelled out about 50%+ of their salary on rent. Sometimes higher. Some Airbnb guests that stayed at our place told us these stories direct. Not just gossip. Great topic this one.

RUMORS OF CONSPIRACY
Economist Martin A. Armstrong writes in today’s blog: “There is a growing mountain of evidence that Dr. Tony Fauci had the Covid-19 viral program transferred from the United States to Wuhan, China” until it “escaped”. This would infer it was in some way or another a construct of the government and nobody knew about it, not even the President. This suggests the existence of Secret Societies in the U.S. Government, a.k.a. “secret combinations”. If so, we are completely screwed, as Gerald Celente keeps mentioning.
He writes in a recent book: Its all part of the (Marxist Elites) plan to destroy the existing global economic paradigm and build a new one from scratch ( Carbon Free, no doubt). A secondary goal of these global “elites” is to substantially reduce the world’s population by a few billion, including right here in the good old USSA. Homicide rates are escalating in New York City, going to 38 in the past 28 days alone, reports Fox News. Increasingly, people are fleeing New York City in-droves for better locations. Soon, you may be able to afford that million dollar co-op in Manhattan.

When I was an innocent 6 year old my much older half brother Ed impregnated his wife Marge. I knew how our animals got it done but was appalled when my brother Pete told me that people did it the same way. He assured me that it was done in the presense of a qualified doctor, and that they wore special suits that only exposed those parts. Maybe that’s how we’ll do it in the future under Dr. Fauci’s watchful eye.

I don’t think we can separate the sociological from the physiological reasons completely. I doubt if we really understand the interrelationship between the two. Male fertility is in serious decline along with general health and vitality. Steroid forms of estrogen are becoming ubiquitous throughout the environment. At the risk of not being politically correct, it’s clear to this 72 year old that there has been and explosion of feminine young men and girls hitting puberty and sexual maturity at younger and younger ages. You wouldn’t notice this if you weren’t older. The most obvious is early menses and breast development.

Fauci is our “worst nightmare.” How much money is he going to make on the forthcoming fraud-cines.
Are they going to put other deadly chemicals into these fraud-cines so that we will have another wave of viruses in 2023.
These people are scoundrels and should be investigated by the Justice Dept to include the drug companies.
What have they put into the vaccines in the past that are causing illnesses for those who were foolish enough to take their “free vaccines?” I have heard that these vaccines end up making the recipient sicker over the long term, therefore, they will need more “medicine” to cure them thus enriching the corrupt pharma and their cohorts in the CDC. Big time investigations need to be done to find out what is really going on.
This PAIN-IN-THE-ASS-DEMIC was a cover up to protect the Federal Reserve’s economic screwups and to help the rich to get richer via transfer of wealth from the tax payers to the robber barons. Another big time investigation should be done to expose the corruption of the Federal Reserve and the banksters.
How about the shut down of small businesses and not shutting down the big boys. This calls for another big time investigation to be done to expose the unbelievable in-front-of-your-face corruption.
CORRUPTION….CORRUPTION….CORRUPTION…CORRUPTION describes the current economic and political world we live in. When running for the presidential election, then Mr. Trump, called it correctly when he said: ‘THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED.” And Mr. Carlin, God rest his soul for telling the truth, said something to the effect: AND YOUR NOT A MEMBER OF THE CLUB.
Henry Ford stated that if the American People ever understood how the Federal Reserve is screwing them there would be a revolution the next day. I wonder if those currently participating in the SOFT REVOLUTION that is taking place over America instinctively know that the Fed, the corporations, the secret society and some parts of the government (which shall remain nameless) are the real cause of the on-going poverty of the HAVE-NOTS. I wonder?
WAKE UP AMERICA BERFORE IT IS TOO LATE! You may ask how can I wake up? What do you mean? I don’t understand? The answers is prayer and turning back to God the Creator for insight and guidance and solutions and help. We have, as a nation, collectively turned our backs on God and have denied Him the adoration and love that He deserves as our Creator. WAKE UP AMERICA!

I have heard that it takes many, many years to develop a SAFE vaccine. How in the hell are they going to develop a SAFE vaccine in less than a year. This is real RIGGED BS. The SHEEPLE are just “dying” to be vaccinated by a vaccine that has not been properly tested. And why, pray tell, do we need their vaccine when other long term proven medicines are being used and proving to cure the virus. These medicines cost very little. Even in Madagascar they have developed a herbal remedy which they say is curative. Why are they ignoring the doctors who are curing virus victims and are literally on the verge of calling for their licenses to be taken away. What the heck is going on and why are Americans so mesmerized and obedient to these scoundrels. I know why? Because they have turned their backs on God and thereby have lost their BACKBONE and are AFRAID. If they were placing their TRUST in GOD and PRAYING they would never be fearful of these scoundrels who do the work of the devil. They would be standing up to them and demanding truth and honesty. They would not be tolerating the BS and CORRUPTION of the politicians.
Americans better wake up to save this REPUBLIC (and no it is NOT a democracy) before the COMMUNISTS take it over little by little and then they will find themselves obedient slaves or murdered truth-tellers.
History, for those who want to know the truth, shows exactly what happens in a COMMUNIST/SOCIALIST takeover and it ain’t pretty. Maybe most Americans were snoozing in their history classes in high school. They start out by doing exactly what they are doing across America right now, i.e., destroying the police system. That is the first step historically in a take over. Convince everyone that they need to get rid of the police. No, the police are not angelic, and yes they make stupid mistakes, but getting rid or defunding them is worse than this SOFT REVOLUTION that is now taking place. Americans need to restore their common sense. In the next election they ABSOLUTELY MUST VOTE OUT ALL OF THE POLITICIANS WHO ARE MARXIST INCLINED OR UNDER THEIR INFLUENCE. THIS BS HAS GONE TO DARN FAR AND THE PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP AND SPEAK UP BEFORE THEY ARE ENSLAVED BY THIS SATANIC NETWORK.

It would not surprise me to find out in the future that these lockdowns around the world were orchestrated by the silent powers that run the world and its government so that the enormous transfer of wealth, which is now taking place, is successful. Look at what has happened in our country. The Fed is transfering enormous amounts of your taxpayers dollars to various entities. The SCAM-DEMIC has enabled that to happen. How could they have gotten away with it without an enormous BLACK SWAN or FALSE FLAG like this totally planed PLAN-SCAM-HOAX-DEMIC. These people don’t work for their money ……they steal it….from you the taxpayer either by direct taxation or by inflation. Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Co., stated that if the American public only knew of the goings on at the Federal Reserve there would be a real revolution overnight, not like the soft revolution we are now experiencing in our cities. WAKE UP AMERICA!

It is the fault of we the citizens for not standing up to these political scoundrels and making them answer about what they are doing to our country. This country belongs to the people, the politicians were elected to be the stewards not dictators. They answer to us and not we to them. They should be afraid of screwing us and not we being afraid of disobeying them. In the final analysis we are not doing our job as responsible citizens and demanding that they answer to us for what they do. And if they are corrupt it is our duty to kick them out of office and it is our duty to investigate their actions and to insure that they are not performing as criminals.
If the public was doing their job they would have disbanded the Federal Reserve long ago. But they continue to believe all the BS fed to them by the corrupt media instead of using their head and a little common sense. And the beat goes on!

Over the weekend, my wife and I happened to see my brother’s mother-in-law. Two months ago, she was feeling sick and took a test for Covid, which she described as incredibly painful. They shoved something so deep in each nostril that it hurt. She was diagnosed positive with the Covid; per her description she had a runny nose for one day, and a fever for three, and then she was fine. She said the worst part of it was a lack of appetite. At this point about 99% of the people who have gotten this have had similar intensity (or lack thereof) of illness. This now has been proved all over the world to be the greatest lie in history, and they’re still moving forward with this as if truth is on their side. I have stated this before: The meaning of life is that we cannot fall for a lie. Discernment of truth is a commandment, not a suggestion. The reason God gave a limited power to the prince of darkness in this world was to put everyone to the test; will you fall for a lie, or are you committed to truth?

I just don’t know what to say anymore. I just can’t believe this is actually happening in the United States. We are in a fight for the life of our country right now. More importantly, we are in a fight for our own lives. These totalitarians are coming to *your* door, eventually. It doesn’t matter how much you virtue signal.
If you think you can appease mobs, you can’t. All you do by giving into a mob is encourage them to take the next step, and the next step, and the next step, and the next step. Mobs represent the worst elements of human behavior.
If you think mobs pursue things in their best interest, they don’t; they are easily manipulated by external forces. It’s as old as humanity. I think I remember a guy named Jesus who was also effectively killed by a mob to save a criminal named Barabbas 2000 years ago. And, the mob was manipulated by agents in the crowd employed by the Pharisees and Potius Pilate.
If I didn’t live all the way in Gruesomland and had to cross our current Mad Max country, I’d come to your rally in a heartbeat. It’s imperative that we start to make our voices heard. We have to learn to start saying, “No.” We also have to realize that there’s no talking reasonably with these crazy people or making compromises anymore.

As a big fan of the dead mall series, experts on this topic like Sal make the point that in the next two decades, mall survivors will be the rare exception. He cites multi function malls in heavily populated downtown centers as the exception. Eaton Center on Yonge Street Toronto may be a classic. Where a mass live close by in walking distance. Few such malls exist. Are any readers expert on this topic? It’s a fascinating one, as most aged 30+ grew up by a mall. It was a place where you might see a relative or old school mate that you might not otherwise see. Sad to see them die. Death of a culture.

I like the way you present the news Gerald, you give us a different point of view and way of looking at things. One cannot help but laugh sometimes at the way you inform your viewers of the stupidities we are all being exposed to. You’re right, these measures, laws, whatever we call them, that are being supposedly used to stop the spread of this virus are a farce. Can you imagine a God looking down from above, scratching his head and asking himself, what the hell are these people doing, why are they trying to keep 1.5 meters apart? And why are they wearing those ridiculous face masks? Our human actions must look absurdly foolish in the eyes of the gods over our handling of this virus outbreak, and I assume therefore that a very heavy punishment awaits mankind for his obedience towards the powers that be. All these measures and all these laws only really serve one purpose, and that is to condition the populace towards humility and obedience of authority. Consequently, the next stage of totalitarianism is on its way.

So are we going to have deflation before inflation?
When the debt bubble bursts and all of that digital currency in the form of loans, credit etc. will be wiped off the books and exert downward pressure on prices (at least in some areas of the economy) before the Fed finally turns the digital printing spigot up to max power to counter act the deflationary spiral, finally ending with hyper-inflation and the death of the dollar?
Will there be more helicopter money to appease the dumbed down masses?

What is the actual strategy of the wealthy and their “kapo” governors, bankers and other politicians which we are experiencing acutely now with lockdowns and economic disorder? It’s deflection. Instead of blaming those kapo’s and the financial system which is the source of their “success”, the media centers on George Floyd and suggests that economic equality as not the problem being the culprit (at least as far as it ‘always’ was a problem), but it is racial inequality. A big deflection for the powers to be to escape blame for the current economic disaster. Jay Powell prints money and gives it to the wealthy, who buy up all the productive assets and keep the remaining fiat money in their accounts so that there is not a high degree of velocity of the money, which would cause massive inflation, eroding their ‘assets’. Look at the criminal justice system in the United States. Only 2% of criminal indictments go to trial. People are pleading guilty to lesser crimes to avoid being indicted for greater crimes. Since the Clinton-Biden federal crime bill of 1994, Federal inmates have increased from some 95,000 in 1994 to a 2017 level of 183,000. Around twice the level of Federal prisoners. The guy who says you ain’t black if you don’t vote Democrat, is the guy who wrote that crime bill. According to the Department of Justice Bulletin (2017) there are more black prisoners in federal prisons than white prisoners (475,900 vs. 436,500), when the US population contains roughly 5 times more whites than blacks in the general population (2000 US census: 48% white, 12% black). Slavery was outlawed after the Civil War, but we now see prisoners working in prison for practically nothing, so as to avoid sanctions by prison authorities. Legalized slavery, and a ‘soft genocide’ by our legal systems. The poor blacks listen to the media and blame ‘whitey’ and police, but not the bankers. A deflection – no one cares about prisoners (in general). Also, what used to be diplomacy in foreign affairs has been replaced by sanctions and economic strangulation. Recalcitrant leaders are removed by these means, as well as supported coups (like in Venezuela) and ‘color revolutions’ (they ran out of colors in Belarus’s government toppling exercise and resorted to ‘slippers’!) The corporations get what they want, as well – many have been relieved of having to provide medical coverage for their employees through Obamacare, and relieved of paying good salaries and generous benefits to workers by outsourcing half of America’s manufacturing capacity to people making $1/day in the Far East. In summary, economic inequality has shot through the roof with massive ‘bail outs’ since 2008, and our media moguls dutifully steer the ignorant masses towards deflecting blame from the cause: the Federal Reserve is authorized to ‘lend’ money to the US Treasury AT INTEREST. That is the central cause.

At the same time, I totally concur with Gerald’s assessment that economic activity is paramount, such as allowing people to enjoy restaurants, and pursue meaningful work.

The latter which was a central global crime racket that is imploding. It is not difficult to imagine 50% unemployment in Britain for a few years.

This is the true picture of what is happening.
“Planet Lockdown” is an encroachment on civil liberties and the “Right to Life”.
Entire national economies are in jeopardy. In some countries martial law has been declared.
Small and medium sized capital are slated to be eliminated. Big capital prevails.

Well, the list of sex rules is impressive! I wonder how they skipped the recommendation to have sex from behind a screen making sure there is a hole wide enough for the ultimate act. But heck, who needs the risk of engaging in sexual activity when we are living increasingly in a virtual world. Isn’t technology wonderful for the human race? With most young people preferring to reach out to others from behind a computer screen rather through face to face contact, virtual sex should be the new normal. Too bad for the prostitutes; they might soon join the ranks of the unemployed.
May be it is time Anthony Fauci gets a statue where other statues have been toppled preferably on the pedestal of Christofer Columbus for the latter only opened the New World to the White race whereas Fauci opened the world to the new normal and paved the way to a wonderful way of having safe sex which in due time will herald the Brave New World of human procreation in government controlled hatcheries.

The FEDS are likely to trash the dollar to keep printing obscene amounts of money. The dollar still maintains its prominence as the currency of exchange and debt throughout the world. As long as oil is connected to the petrodollar this system will continue. If currencies suddenly become tied to electronic metrics only then we will leave the petrodollar. There is no competition for the FED and the governments that back their authority with armies. They will not allow competition to whatever currency they use. Even though I hold gold and silver, I am skeptical that governments (the USA in particular) will stop manipulating and suppressing the price of gold. Why wouldn’t they? A gold-backed currency limits how much debt they can issue.

Staff in stores openly say they cannot breathe, and leave these masks around their neck until inspectors/cops/managers pass by and comment. They have to wear them 8 hours a day – they know what they are talking about. That number 17 again.

June 23, 2020 Jay Jericho
Even if wearing a mask could inhibit or slow down transmission of a virus that’s all it would do. With a virus already spread throughout the population as much as this COVID, and the same for yearly flu epidemics, everyone will sooner or later be exposed to the virus. What matters most, and in every case, for every person, no exception, is if the immunological system is up to snuff. That is, are you healthy enough that your immunological system can successfully overcome the virus. Nutrition with vitamins, minerals and Interferon are the best defenses against catching it, or beating it if you do get infected. Homeopathic nosodes can establish an immune response the same as a vaccination. Having toxins contained in the vaccine injected directly into your blood stream is much more dangerous than being exposed to this COVID virus, which is much less deadly than the seasonal flu. Money would be better spend on widespread nutrition rather than developing a vaccine, IMO.

If the dollar is connected to oil, and electric vehicles keep advancing, gasoline powered vehicles will slowly be phased out, maybe even big trucks, but diesel will be around as much as gasoline for those machines that require 100% reliability and continuous run time without having a dead battery. So the more electrification of transportation, the more strain on the dollar.

IMO this has to be an investment with infinite RISK. Whoever controls the Internet and cell phones in the digital infrastructure, that entity can rend BITCOINS absolutely useless. Imagine if SHTF and normal methods of commerce for sustenance items needed to survive are dissolved through the kind of activities taking place by Domestic Enemies in our nation right now. Then think about how you are going to get eggs to eat from a local farmer. How are you going to pay for them? BITCOINS? Dream on! No. The farmer would want something of actual real value in return for the dozen eggs. Silver or gold coins could be used to barter, as well as booze, toilet paper, etc., or service of some sort that you could offer as payment, like medical care, labor assistance, etc. All digital cash and transactions are dependent on the digital infrastructure. If that is disrupted locally, nationally or internationally, digital currencies and typical transaction methods we use every day now will be impossible.

Though not officially proven, there are research articles that claim that viruses/influenza pandemics of recent years have been lab designed to attack certain races. Eugenics. The same has also been said of COVID – that different strands have been let off in different regions for different purposes. Again, as far as I can recall from a few weeks ago, these claims are not mainstream such as MSNBC, orthodox scientific journal articles.

I knew it! This is why I keep my nose outside of my mask and breathe oxygen in with my nose and never use my mouth. The irony is that those who comply with the Governor’s orders in any given state will incur lung damage from breathing in CO2 over long periods of time. If there’s a second wave of COVID-19, then all of those people who followed Governor Cuomo’s orders will most likely catch the virus and could suffer considerably. Meanwhile anyone who did what I did won’t have to worry because our lungs are healthy.

What mainstream media don’t tell us that in Japan, some people commute, shop and run their errands with these surgical masks on. The reason is that these citizens may likely have a cold or flu and they don’t want to spread their cold or flu to anyone else. Aka: consideration for others. However, people who are healthy, won’t wear them. This practice existed in Japan for decades, especially in major cities like Tokyo. Now with COVID-19, our politicians think that healthy people wearing masks and breathing in their own Carbon Dioxide would be helpful. Of course, they got it wrong once again.

My question is that why this COVID-19 is so significant? Why other viruses that were much more deadlier such as Ebola came and went like the wind? Because of the timing. That’s right timing. You see, Gerald Celente’s prediction of the Greatest Depression to ever exist was originally due to happen within the last three months of 2020 or the first three months of 2021 at the latest. When this Greatest Depression come, our politicians would have no answers as to why this Greatest Depression happened? They would have no clue as to why?!?! But we know much better than that! We clearly understand that we never learned anything from the 2008 Great Recession. We also recognize the public, private, corporate, consumer and household debt have been climbing ever since. We realized that the one percent has received 90 percent of the total wealth and income since 2008. We remembered all the protests, riots and demonstrations all over the world due to issues ranging from income / wealth disparities, cronyism, nepotism, political corruption, oppression, crime and violence have plaged peoples lives for a very long time before COVID-19 was ever heard of. We never forgot about the peristent global economic slowdown, which curtailed demand for raw materials and finished goods because nobody had money to spend. COVID-19 has been the most effective distraction and exit excuse our politicians could give to their unwary constituents. We know much better than that!

There’s a vast, fundamental difference between Authoritative and Authoritarian! Authoritative means that true leaders do their research and discover the facts of any given issue. They also, employ experience, observation and hard data to build a case for their objective decisions based upon these truths. They also would expain their decisions with logic, reason, common sense, comprehensiveness and transparency. The Authoritarian is one who barely have any leadership qualities and make up hogwash nonsense, based upon their own self induced assumptions. Research is too much for them and facts are just another obstacle they must avoid. But most of all the Authoritarian is one whose self interests overshadow the truth, facts, logic, reason, common sense and even the law!

It’s possible that this turn lockdown is being misused in numerous sources. Only a handful of articles seem to challenge this – they make the point that government issued orders that demand people stay at home are very rare in America, and generally rare in other countries. Do readers know more about this? But yes, locking down businesses is a problem… as Gerald says, most won’t come back. Lost profits from just a few weeks can sink a business. Some say that may business who trade trades seven days a week, need five to six days of trade to pay the rent. The seventh day is the profit.

Preparing the next generation or slaves

June 24, 2020 Zenith Trench
As Greg pointed out, we have a de facto cashless system already as physical currency is sparse at best. There will be no need to go over to a new currency platform as the USD is debt based and will continue to expand as the Fed is becoming the financier of last resort. As Gerald one said, ” digital currency not worth the paper it is not written on.”.
The issue becomes the monetary value of the currency and how the expanded currency or debt backed currency affects purchasing power in terms of tangibles. We are seeing this in gold and silver, but will see this in areas such as as oil. As the laws of supply and demand have been suspended, the future holds that tangible asset classes priced in the USD will increase in value relative to the USD. Not because of demand but because of the deflated value of the currency. Consumption of said resources such as oil may be anemic, this will not be reflected in the price. We used to call this stagflation.
Final note. Greg appeared many times on USA Watch Dog as does Gerald. Greg mentioned years back about the effect of debt destruction on global population. Would appreciate if Greg could elaborate on this in any future Journal addition.

THE U.S. DOLLAR WILL FAIL SOMEDAY, BUT “NOT YET”
It is true the United States Government plans to eventually roll-out a digital dollar, possibly in a few more years. China already is field testing a digital yuan in select markets in China. However, I do not think 5-G will replace 4G overall for at least 5 more years. Many cell towers have yet to be constructed and 5G requires many more cell towers to function. The current Covid-19 recession will slow down and delay the investment needed to realize fully operational 5-G networks nationally, but its certainly is coming. Our freedoms and privacy will only last that long.
As for the U.S. Dollar, there is insatiable demand for any form of U.S. Dollar or credit abroad. For this reason, the U.S. Dollar is much more likely to get stronger relative to all other fiat currencies around the world. Foreign currencies will collapse before ours by a number of years. The final act will be the fall of the U.S. Dollar but for now, it has not occurred. For example, the U.S. Dollar Index is only down a few points, at most. (To 97).
Now, if you ever see the U.S. Dollar Index fall to say 65, then yes, we would be taking-on water and sinking in high inflation. As markets stand, we are not near there at this time. The trend will take us to a conclusion, maybe in as little as 5 more years, but its hard to say and impossible to accurately predict. These global financial trends take much longer to play-out than most people realize. Just saying.

This is much ado about nothing. My personal opinion is that it definitely won’t hurt to wear a mask and if it relieves stress in the other people around you, it has a benefit even though it might not stop SARS-COV2. Get over it and stop criticizing people for wearing masks. If you don’t want to wear one, fine. I really couldn’t care less. What I do care about is people constantly bullying others if they disagree or have a somewhat different opinion about something. Don’t stomp on my free will and I won’t stomp on your’s.

A stock market supported by just a select group of big (tech) stocks in one or two sectors is lacking in Breadth. Its like a big rock formation with a large top formation and a tiny, narrow supporting column of rock. Gravity is waiting in-the-wings to take it down. All it takes is a tremor or other natural disturbance to topple it. Ditto with markets exhibiting narrow breath. High P/E Ratios below 35 can persist for some time and therefore, can not be used as a market timing factor with any success.
BAD BREATH
All the FED stimulus, asset purchases through various new “lending facilities” and money printing ( QE Infinity) have certainly distorted markets. Those with access to free chips ( zero interest rate loans) can take advantage of this kind of speculative market, while everyone else (retail investors) merely follow the herd or greater trends. FED economic stimulus practices tend to favor hedge funds and large investment banks, as well as large corporations over public investors. Insiders operate with inside information while others are prohibited from doing so by law. This is commonly referred to as “crony capitalism”. Not equivalent to free markets and true capitalism, long extinct.
Instead, manage investment risk by allocations. Too many stocks of any kind in globally synchronized markets ( all central banks in on this one ) means lack of diversity and too much systemic risk, as you allude to here. Once the ball starts to roll downhill again in the next correction, chances are ALL global markets will decline with a high correlation (.80). In the mean time, Gold, short term U.S. Treasuries, cash ( in USD ) and maybe some global real estate are good hiding places when markets look overly risky and over valued compared to individual company fundamentals. As the saying goes, eventually ( even years later ) everything tends to revert to the mean.

In the end; all fiat currencies function due to a trust and faith by the populace. If you – being a lifelong citizen of the USA are handed a paper note from another country; say Canada – it looks like a piece of worthless paper; which it is.. but alas ! A dollar looks very real – why? because you KNOW it can be exchanged for goods and services because someone else ( here in the USA ) thinks the same way. Regardless of the FACT that it has been devalued to the point of nothingness – a great example is gold. In 1900 you could walk into any gunshop in the USA and purchase a brand new Colt .45 peacemaker for a $20 dollar gold piece — worth at that time —- $20 dollars. 120 years later if you walk into the same gunshop – that Colt will still cost you a $20 gold piece; only difference is that now the gold piece is worth $1, 750.00 – which is exactly what that colt will cost if you pay in paper money. No one knows the day and time when enough people will say ” I don’t want your paper” & until that day arrives – – they can print Quadrillions without repercussion.

For sure this is a trend that will change the local and possibly global landscape over the decades. It’s hard to know what work people will be able to find locally in the metropolis. Lots of extra driving to work, back to the big cities? And their block of land is not big enough to grow a harvest or a range of foods like a homestead, which can also trade with other local homesteads. So I wonder if some will end up between the devil and the deep blue sea. I met a guy from the Air Force a few years ago who told me that you could be a four bedroom family home in Albuquerque for $250K. Never checked if this was true. He should know – he was from there.

Greg is a popular contributor. This succinct article is a tight summary of many of his interesting YouTube presentations. I question if his claim that the Fed will own the whole world is an idiom hyperbole. Perhaps he means that they will be the biggest holder of assets by far, perhaps. But this would still surely be less than half of the entire world. They probably won’t own all of China, for example.

Let’s have some real truth on what the Perpetrators and multiple Patent-holders of these idiotic viruses Planned to subvert and seize our liberties for what ultimate purpose. They pulled off a Constitutional coup. One of their group had announced, “You will have an epidemic.” in 2017 to Georgetown elite. He and his billionaire tech funder, the Big Pharmas. other dynastic sinister Investors – all holding the shared viral patents and the shared future vaccine patents (Huge conflicts of Interest issue). to heist dual profits from those with weakened immune systems – they released the virus in polluted Wuhan. Dec. 2019.
The virus plot need investigating on where exactly, which Labs weaponized it so it goes to the lungs. And how it was sent from U S CDC Labs over to Wuhan Labs. Who is in back of that? Or who gave the orders to do that? That’s a Crime against Humanity.
We have an International Court at The Hague .It seems like that s where this “Covert- 19” crime should be sent.
When will action be taken to open the Private Investigation on which Billionaire Investors and groups caused this epidemic / “Plandemic”J. Mikovitz) ? They genetically-engineered it ? They infected the elderly and those with obesity, diabetes, COPD, fibrosis or cancer, other ailments with patients who already had weakened immune systems. to start with culling the overpopulated globe, part of their goal.
Then their “scheduled” and manufactured corona-SARS II lungs-attacking virus was let out in Dec. 2019 in polluted Wuhan. It could hav been a lab worker or scientist who had lost their job when the funding was cut off. Funding was lost. It was totally cut off. Then before you noticed it, many doctors, Lab Assistants, and Medical Drs in China had tried to speak up, but were silenced.
We need the Legal Team to find out where the 3.4 million (Another figure given was 3.7 million ) that was sent over to that Wuhan Lab where more cultures of viruses were being “weaponized” was spent on. That’s an unacceptable vanished sum of our tax dollars for such an illicit purpose to be used to harm innocent persons globally. They used the oldest weapon known to bullies: Fear Propaganda tactics. And they’ve got you if that’s how much you have given up your healthy mind.
Take it back. Your Rights & Freedoms &Liberties. Do take your vitamins, minerals and supplements and get some natural vitamin D sunshine. No excuses not to.
Stop wearing the ridiculous masks EXCEPT if you are a caregiver of a sick patient or 2 ) you have symptoms.
My question is “Where is the Legal Team to investigate these pretenders who’s egos are stirring up such injustice economically, deaths by mismanagement ( sending those elderly into hospitals, then making them go back to Nursing Homes where many crossed over that needed to have their regular care for pre-existing conditions and not all had “Covert-19” but were systematically labelled as only “Covid-19” on Death Certificates to get more money into that institution, fabricating, and making rubber number statistics is Fraud. That is tip of iceberg.

What if the government declares gold and silver illegal to own (happened before) and illegal to use as currency and orders it turned in? We are under attack now by foreign and domestic enemies who wish to confiscate our wealth and dominate.

June 25, 2020 Robert
They say that physical gold and silver should be worth a lot more than what it currently is. The only thing therefore that is suppressing its worth is people’s lack of initiative to use it. If the people began transacting directly with the physical gold and silver, these metals would naturally come to show their true worth through market forces. However, because of the lack of convenience in using these metals to transact with, nobody does this. It is far easier and more convenient from the individual perspective to use fiat digital money and paper money for that matter, to transact with. And thus as a collective we pay a price for this convenience as the digital currency we use to allow for this convenience can be easily manipulated. It is our human greed therefore and our individual consideration that does not enable the price of gold and silver to stabilise to its true worth. We are more concerned with hoarding these precious metals than we are to transact directly with them. Of what use are physical gold and silver if that’s the case? Wouldn’t the very lack of use of these metals undermine their worth? If gold and silver are supposed to be real money, but they are not being used as real money, then wouldn’t the God who created them punish those who refused to use them by undermining its worth? The central banks have no real power over the people. The people have given their power over to them, it was the people’s choice. The very first time that the banks made off with the people’s gold because there was a run on the banks should have taught the people the lesson that no one is to be trusted with their gold. So what do people do today? They hoard their gold in the hope that one day the price will rise. But how are they measuring that rise, i.e. what are they using to price their gold? Fiat currency. And so the banks who are the epitome of greed continue to deceive the people. Why price gold and silver in fiat currency? If fiat currency is worthless, then that renders the gold and silver worthless as well.

A CLOUD OF FEAR COVERS AMERICA
Mandatory Mask Rules have further divided American society. In particular, most elderly wear a mask and are threatened by seeing anyone who does not conform and wear a mask. Obviously, they are living in a cloud of ongoing fear of Covid-19. In addition, quite a few minerals also wear a mask while walking the dog or walking solo, as well as while in the own car.
Of course, for a healthy young person to continually wear a mask, indoors or outdoor, is absolutely ridiculous but it shows the strong influence the politicians and media have on conditioning people, who have been trained since Kindergarten to be obedient, follow orders, and conform. In addition, Its part of their non-critical thinking skills refined in our public school system. Yes, we have “Zombies”.

Has anyone ever heard of anything more ridiculous than making a law which prohibits people from getting too close to one another? They are trying to defy nature. It would have been much better to let the virus spread throughout society and develop herd immunity. It seems logical to allow nature to take its course doesn’t it? We humans have no trust in nature anymore. Rather, we tend to regard nature as evil, something to be defied and we make “war” against her. Consequently, if you listen closely you can hear her saying, “Oh, ye of little faith, for your lack of trust in me, severe your punishment will be.”

Gold and silver will never attain their true value unless the people begin to actually use them to transact with instead of allowing them to remain dormant in their vaults. That’s why their values are low. Think about it, the intrinsic worth of anything consists in its utility. As a medium of exchange, there is nothing better than gold and silver to fulfil that function. They have all the desired attributes. Therefore, if the people used them for this purpose, they would quickly rise to their true worth. When we as an individual or as a collective do not use what is naturally suited to the purpose but use something else instead, suffering results. The way to beat the banks is for the people to start transacting with gold and silver at the local level and to use bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies over the digital medium. Digital cash and paper notes are not natural and so we as a body of people will pay a price for violating a basic principle of nature if we continue to use them. Our enslavement and suffering therefore is our own fault but it is borne out of a collective ignorance of what is natural and to our advantage as a society of human beings.

I am 78 years old and I don’t wear a mask unless I am not allowed to move freely without it. So far, I have gotten my hair cut, shopped at Walmart, Best Buy, Safeway, King Soopers, Neighborhood Restaurant, and other establishments without a mask. I do try to stay away from close encounters with other humans so they don’t feel threatened by my presence.
I am a bladder and kidney cancer survivor. I attribute my survival without the administration of chemo therapy to a highly boosted immune system, multiple natural supplements, and staying as far away from crowds as possible during the allergy and flu seasons as the main reason I am in good health. As far as I can tell, I don’t suffer from chronic diseases that would cause me health problems with COVID-19 virus.

They’re murdering the elderly in these nursing homes. 51,000 useless eaters out of the way AND if a family wants to sue, there’s a bill in con gress to protect the nursing homes and other elder care centers.
Sorry Gerald,,, we considered going to your freedom rally but we do not want to risk the asinine quarantine. We are in Florida and are hearing they are stopping people with Florida plates. It appears now they have eliminated our right to free travel.
I watch the insanity here in Florida and the rest of the country and wonder how they managed to get people to act like this. Did they spike our water,,, are cell phones somehow being used to zombify people,,, was it all the flu shots they been pushing the last few years? People are acting like mindless zombies People are acting as if the State officials have dictatorial power when they do not. Not one law has been passed requiring face diapers, social distancing, or any of the other dictates yet people are acting as if these “guidelines” are in fact law.
I can’t figure this out… makes no sense!

In order to dissolve a nationalist democratic civilization, preparing the way for full billionaire and psychopathic control of our planet via “one world government”, three areas need to be destroyed. First, the political. Well done here in America and the world – two criminal gangs running and ruining America have ruined any cooperation towards progress here in the US (D’s and R’s) now openly running a coup operation in DC, who then destroyed all international diplomacy in order undermine other nation state’s interests through sanctions and threats, especially targeting the two biggest and most recalcitrant states (Russia and China) in order to destroy their systems and resistance to the “coming” one world governing structure. Next, destroy the financial systems so that a single designed currency under the control of same madmen and madwomen controlling the banks can then replace it. Finally, you destroy the social structure. Gerald hectors about just this here in this Trends In the News – no need by me to break this down – Gerald does a great job – notice how we have been effectively isolated on a personal basis in order to break down all resistance to the plans of the mad. Obesity and the end of inter-personal relationships.
Remember Margaret Thatcher saying “there is no alternative”. The same guys who apparently saw Orwell’s “1984” as a playbook (along with Huxley’s “Brave New World”). People have been relieved of critical and abstract thinking – people now so afraid to speak of anything not approved by the controllers. The only hope is revolution, actually. How about rounding up these psychos, locking them in a pen and dropping in a nuke? Greed is what is killing the golden goose, and is why socialism could never succeed.

Pakistan had a target on its back when they completed the highway from Gwadar Port straight into Western China and Gwadar being the deepest sea port in the world. You can literally dock a ship on the beach there.
The Arab states don’t want it, especially UAE which has controlled ports in that area forever. USA does not want it and nor does India. The allied forces will continue to stop China and Pakistan any chance they get.
With no constant electricity and water (India restricting water flow into Pakistan for decades) and now the Kashmir issue has escalated. Border skirmishes and aerial dog fights are a daily norm between India and Pakistan. All the way from Israel to China, this whole area is a nuclear disaster waiting to be ignited.

SAD (Sad American Diet)
My neighbor, “Bo” is a small time contractor who hires mostly Hispanic (Mexican) Subcontractors. Recently (last week) he hired one of them to build a wood property boundary fence in his back yard. Jimmy ( Jime) goes to lunch and usually in my observation, eats “fast food” (Burger King or Carl’s Jr.), such as hamburger and fries. This is a high calorie, high cholesterol diet. Most informed consumers would consider a “fast food” diet quite unhealthy. In addition, Jimmy is overweight (obese), as well. Perhaps some Nutritional Guidance would benefit the poor and low wage workers. They seem not to connect the importance of diet to long term health. He does not apparently care. Its the system.

AMERICA’S FAIR WARNING
First, I SUPPORT Gerald Celente’s gallant effort to try to stage a public event that is pro-Liberty and pro-America. I think and feel courage is in short supply in today’s America, unfortunately. Few individuals care to get involved in-support of traditional Liberty. Instead, many are more concerned with themselves (wearing a mask everywhere ) and do not want to ‘get involved’ or put themselves “out-there” ( not new for “me” generation ). Essentially, the “silent majority” are proving to be an obedient majority. It may take another major financial crisis or stock market crash to get their attention. If so, I hope not. America has already been given a “fair warning”.
I also think the majority of Americans despise the attempts of the Left to destroy our nation’s history (statues) and culture and remake it into a Communist State ( think Cuba ). If the majority stand-down long enough and don’t know how to vote their self-interest in future elections, then America may only exist in its current form for 20 more years, then, its all over. I probably won’t be around by then but young people today will suffer the most, I predict.
One disturbing sign under President Trump is he evidently has lost the support of the U.S. Military whose upper level Generals (Liberals) do not want to back him up in any Federal effort to restore order in our large, Blue State Cities. Usually a (cultural) revolution requires the military to side with those who are pushing hardest for change, as was the case in the French revolution or other major political realignments. Basically, its either stand-up now for freedom or be known in history as the “Cowardly Generation” who “Lost It”. Not an honorable distinction for the history books either, in my opinion.

Lol. Peggy hall…the one in California? Blonde and brilliant dentures? This is great, I see why numbers are going back up. This is from her website regarding her training..”Trained as a spiritual lay counselor, Peggy specializes in emotional healing and soul care.” Ok nothing wrong with that, she actually uses some great techniques and promotes a healthy lifestyle that is important now more than ever. And she is in every right to promote her enthusiasm for healthy lifestyle. But the videos I reviewed, she was informing us on how to “fight back ” but she never stated her supporting documents or research. She definitely had a good career in emotional healing and soul care. She’s out of her league…but the has the right to catch whatever she wants. Good luck

2020 Census Results Should Tell us What’s Really Going-On
Same situation in California. The 2020 census and reapportionment of Congressional seats will give us the state and city population facts in a few years once the data is tabulated and summarized. Until then, we have many opinions and perceptions. Some say its still growing, others say many are leaving for warmer climates or more tax friendly states/jurisdictions. Its not simple to figure out the overall picture just from where you stand. There are always people coming and going. What is the makeup of those leaving vs. new arrivals? What is their income and how much state income taxes do they pay, if any? Details, details.

You go to a hospital or elder home, They test you with a RT-PCR test that errors 50-70pct positive, shove a vent tube down your throat, drug the crap out of you,,, you die and they collect $52,000 reward from Medicare for murdering you,,, plus all the drugs, equipment and bed costs.

Everyone needs to testify the truth to the people around us before we perish with the deceived. This is a spiritual war that we are in. We will not be able to out-evil evil. We need to defeat evil with truth, love and peace. The Bible is on our side; the organized groups calling themselves Christian are under the control of the terrorists.

What I find strange and unusual is how we have nearly 50 percent unemployment, however take a look at Hudson Yards, Billionaires’ Row, Financial District, MIdtown Manhattan and other key places and you’ll see construction projects and plans that would’ve been fantasy around five years ago. However, if you go back to the 1933, which was at the height of the Great Depression, plenty of skyscrapers in Manhattan were constructed. I’ve always suspected that there’s two ecoomies. The One Percent Economy and The Rest of Us Economy. The differences are fundamental and while the One Percent Economy has record highs in the markets and in real estate building. The Rest of Us Economy has suffered so much loss that’s it’s just a few pulses before being pronounced dead. 90 percent of all the world’s wealth and income went to the one percent, while the rest of us fought over the crumbs. Two economies – two realities.

I see people these wearing stupid masks all over the place: exercising outdoors, in their cars, young healthy teenagers forced to wear them while working at check out counters in grocery stores, physical laborers in manufacturing plants. This is insane, possibly impairing the health of teenagers ( and others) as they re-absorb microbes into their bodies, especially through the nasal passages which could infect the brain!! Maybe that is the plan: those who wear masks will be more susceptible to microbes and The- Powers- That- Be may actually have the pandemic they so yearn for.

The only reason why COVID-19 has been hyped up so much is because of the timing this virus showed up. Gerald Celentie were among the first to predict the Greatest Depression is due to arrive either at the last quarter of 2020 or within the first quater of 2021. For certain, these politicians would have absolutely no answer as to why this Greatest Depresion of all time occurred and who’s at fault. These politicians wouldn’t have any exit strategy to deal with this Greatest Depression of all time. COVID-19 is the perfect excuse to use so they could shut down the economy and scare people into obeying social distancing. Now that the Greatest Depression is here, these politicians could now come up with an excuse! Not to mention, China could likely be blamed on this disease because of the cover-up and lies they made with the World Health Organization about COVID-19. If all fails then war will be inevitable. This is why I think COVID-19 is an exaggeration and hype.

ROUND-UP CIVIL LITIGATION IS A LEGAL SCAM ( “Ambulance Chasers”, L.L.C.)
Roundup is a herbicide and is formulated to kill ALL vegetation. I use it sparingly to kill hard to get rid-of weedy species such as Oxalis ( has a very deep taproot ). Its a Federally regulated chemical product ! Technically, its a pesticide but includes other special purpose chemical products such as insecticides ( Malathion for Mosquitoes), Rhodenticides ( Decon Rat and Mice Pellets), Fungicides, etc. All pesticides are dangerous if used incorrectly or carelessly.
All must have a EPA Label outlining the the safe & proper application techniques and conditions ( wind drift, wind speed limitations, distance from surface water, etc. IT IS A FEDERAL CRIME TO FOR A LICENSED APPLICATOR TO NOT APPLY A PESTICIDE ACCORDING TO THE EPA LABEL INSTRUCTIONS. Thus, Roundup’s label is an integral part of the EPA product license, for those ( the great unwashed) to read if they choose. It has been certified as safe, IF used as directed.
Strictly speaking, the public should wear rubber gloves and boots when apply a strong chemical like Roundup and avoid direct dermal contact, per label instructions. Wash your hands afterwards, as well for safety sake. Those who fail to obey and follow a pesticide’s label instructions are taking avoidable risks and also committing a crime in the process. You better believe that commercial Agricultural applicators ( crop dusters) have made mistakes like spraying a defoliant on a section of land with a light wind which then kills a farmer’s crop next door, resulting in a multi-million dollar Civil Lawsuit for the crop loss (damages).

DON’T GET SWABBED !
In California, some Urgent Care Clinics are now receiving a windfall, as the public forms long lines daily to be tested for Covid-19. Such testing is 100% paid for by Medicare or private health insurance companies ( such as Obama Care Compliant individual health insurance policies) with NO Deductible or Co-pay. I assume the free money is from the Federal Government.
I read the test procedure is to insert a long Q-Tip swab into your nose and down your nasal cavity to obtain a tissue sample for lab analysis ( a biopsy). Remember the fuss that was made about “water boarding” terrorist suspects during interrogation by the CIA and other parties? These fools are lining-up like lemmings to get swabbed. Go figure. P.T.

Is 2020 the New 1932
1932: The Unexpected Second Shock
They will say, nobody saw it coming. Who could have predicted it… It is worth noting that the 1932 stock market crash is deemed to be the worst in the 20th century and NOT the one in 1929. By mid-1930, the market was up 30% from the trough of the 1929 crash.
However, by the summer of 1932, the Dow reached a low of just 11% of its high in 1929, or a loss of roughly 89%, trading more than 50% below the low it had reached on October 29th, 1929. If one had $1000 on September 3rd 1929, it would have gone down to $108 by July 8th, 1932 — end of the worst crash — or an 89.2% loss. To recover from such a loss, one would have to watch one’s portfolio go up by 825%!
All this happened despite assurances from prominent government and business leaders of-the-time that the worst was behind. Here is a news headline that may sound familiar:
September 1929: “There is no cause to worry. The high tide of prosperity will continue.” – Andrew W Mellon, US Secretary of the Treasury
After the stock market crash in October 1929, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) partially recovered in November-December 1929 and early 1930.
Reassuring headlines such as the following became increasingly common:
May 1, 1930: “I am convinced we have now passed the worst and with continued unity of effort we shall rapidly recover. There is one certainty of the future of a people of the resources, intelligence and character of the people of the United States – that is, prosperity!” – US President Hoover
August 29, 1930: “American labor may now look to the future with confidence.” – James J Davis, US Secretary of Labor
October 16, 1930: “Looking to the future I see in the further acceleration of science continuous jobs for our workers. Science will cure unemployment.” – Charles M Schwab.
On July 8th, 1932 the Dow reached its lowest level of the 20th century and did not return to pre-1929 levels until 23rd November, 1954. The full impact was not felt until the next year. By 1933, the Great Depression was very real and it would take more than 22 years before the market would regain what had been lost.

History does repeat. Study history to know the future. I was born in 1935 and remember the Pearl Harbor attack. I agree with what Mr. Celente has forecast about the gov’t going to war to cover up the depression.

In the Navy I learned that there was nothing lower than Whale Excrement at the bottom of the sea. I thought that this expression was axiomatic, absolutely true with no argument. Then, a time came when I went into business and made several observations, one of which was that ‘BSA’ just didn’t stand for ‘Boy Scouts of America’. It has another meaning, brought into being by this world the way it is today: Bull Shit Abounds! It comes from politicians, so-called business leaders and the media. That’s when I made the discovery that there is actually things lower than Whale Excrement, the aforementioned! Thank you Gerald for Trends.

It’s interesting to me how the general public can be led along by the nose through a developing financial collapse with little comprehension of the gravity of what’s happening. Clearly public education isn’t preparing people to do critical thinking. This level of control of the narrative through the media would have been much more difficult if not impossible prior to the telecommunications act of 1996 under Bill Clinton which allowed the consolidation of news sources from hundreds down to 5. Consider the contiguous stream of legislation going back to Ross Perot and his pronouncement that the giant sucking sound is our jobs leaving that have brought us to this point. For those paying attention it’s obvious that the overall message comes from the mainstream media comes from a single source based on conformity and consistency of the message. Even the supposed opposition seldom really confronts the really important issues. In the mean time half of the population gobbles it up without question while the rational are shouted down with ad hominem attacks. The population becomes more and more polarized between left and right brain people. The emotional appeal is apparently working with the complicity of a controlled media. This period in our history clarifies the methods of leftist movements of the past which always build their movements on those who consider themselves disenfranchised in some way (black people, homosexuals, transsexuals, feminist women). While our attention is on black lives matter, transsexual rights, gay rights, women’s issues and so on, the loss of the middle class and wealth flowing to the 1% is lost in the fog. The appeal is to emotion not reason and it works. Ask your friends and family if they understand how the federal reserve works, or where money comes from when a bank makes a loan. Invariably they will think they know and be totally wrong. We’re facing the kind of social and economic collapse that we’ve seen throughout the 20th and early 21st century in many places and now it’s coming home to roost here, and the general public is largely oblivious. The term, “Break a leg” in the entertainment industry goes back to Shakespeare’s day when people would come to see a performance never having seen anything like that in their lives. As the story goes, they would sit next to the stage with their chins on the stage watching fascinated in rapt attention, drooling. Break a leg means that the performance was so good that the actors would slip on the drool and break a leg. As a veteran and patriot I find it sad and disturbing but not historically different from civilizations that have come and gone, all destroyed from within. It’s our turn to be bled dry.

I have a feeling that the numbers on all these elder care deaths are so skewed that we will never have an actual count of purely Covid 19 deaths. Most of these facilities are corporate run and they are going for what pays the most and the government is actually supporting this fraud.

I have hayfever and my nose drips so I’m constantly using my mask to wipe my nose lol. I sneeze only a couple sneezes a day that all go it my mask. I suspect that a mask for me is dangerous to my health.

Accordingly as of today the Market is being run by fear and yet it is up. Is the Fed trying to buy up the Market as Rothschild did after Waterloo? Is it doing this through lending in the Repo market?

I made myself a mask out of a lace doily. At least I can breathe through it but I still hate it. My stupid county has made it mandatory but while at the post office today the chief of Police was not wearing one and did not even have one in his pocket. So with that said I took mine off.

Torturing people with fear, then offer relief by way of vaccines. Peer pressure and work requirements will “lock it in”.

Politicians like AOC and Deblassio has accelerated people leaving the city. NY may one day become another RIO De Jennario. A few rich people with their private security with the majority of people living in the slums.

When Bayer bought Monsanto, the law firm that sells chemicals, they must have laid off Monsanto’s legal team.

Gerald – You really got to get with the program, here. The deaths are RIGGED!!! And why? Follow the money!! Dr Scott Jensen – an MD and Senator from MN. He talks about advice that he got from the CDC (the CDC!!) on how to properly fill out a death certificate. If there is the “possibility” that the person had COVID, then the MD can put COVID as the reason for death – even if they didn’t even test for the virus.
Hospital admissions for COVID get more money. Deaths from COVID get even more money.
THE DEATH STATS ARE OVER STATED!
And lest you think I am lying, it happened to my aunt. She died of alzheimers. She didn’t even have a COVID test. But what did the death cert say? Death was due to complications resulting from COVID.
Get clued up on this Gerald. You’re putting out false information on the number of deaths!!!

Yes, especially when you consider the massive turn out rates for the Republican primaries where Trump was getting 99% of the votes whereas Biden (even after Bernie dropped out) could only muster around 60% of the votes.
But yeah those polls are accurate. Sure they are.

Do you set stop losses with your broker? I have heard you should never set stop losses with your broker as marker makers can see this and use it to grab your shares on the cheap.

How exactly does the state of New York know when someone from another state enters NY?

July 2, 2020 John Kennedy
The reason I had to stop listening to Greg Hunter a few years ago was because he is suffering from a severe case of Trump Worship Syndrome, rendering him blind to the things that Trump does. He’s saying that the Democrats are trying to sabotage Trump’s re-election, when Trump is Fauci’s boss? He declared himself a wartime president, ordering GM to build ventilators, and Apple to build face shields? This whole thing happened under his watch. He could have stopped the governors from this assault on the Constitution, instead he let it happen. Only a fool could think that Trump is somehow on the side of the people and the American Constitution, when he has declared himself the leader in this war against humanity. The people have already lost this next election for spokesman of the Deep State. But what does is matter?

Do me a favor, GC, when you see Judge Napolitano ask him if he would mind being a write-in candidate for president this November. We need someone who we know loves our country and respects our Constitution like he does. For that matter, Napolitano-Celente 2020 has a nice ring to it for me!

Good one Gerald
This market is sickening, my heart wants to short it, but this ponzi sheme broke the stock market since 2009 *sadface*
