The Financial Mess

I've seen 2 articles that summarize the major problems with the US economy. The garbage on mainstream news that passes for truth is merely propaganda to keep people complacent with the status quo.

If you do not learn the facts about the US economy, you may lose all of your savings. Even if the FDIC insurance gives you the nominal value of your bank deposits in the case of a financial catastrophe (which is doubtful since the FDIC only has approximately 3-5% of total bank deposits in their possession), your deposits will be paid with money the government creates from inflation. This means that the value of your dollars will be reduced. In short, your spending power will diminish.

The first article is entitled US Policies Will Fail to Avert Hyperinflation. This is a great article that speaks about the major problems that make a financial recovery in America improbable. But it also outlines the steps that we can take to rebuild and repair the US economy. The road is not an easy one, but it will be easier to make the changes while we have a chance rather than having no other alternative.

The worst part of this situation is that instead of people facing the facts and acting responsibly, we continue to embrace delusions, lies and false promises. This is not good, and the worst is yet to come, especially if changes are not made. The current financial policy virtually guarantees that financial destruction and economic hardship are in the future of the United States. Lies, deception and fraud are not a solid foundation for long-term economic prosperity. That's a self-evident fact.

The second article is entitled Financial Fraud on Wall Street. This is a short article that explains the fact that there is still massive fraud occurring on Wall Street. The bottom line is that if the banks were honest, they would acknowledge that they are all insolvent. Government collusion and connections keep this truth from being accepted. The banks can get bailouts and pretend to be solvent, and they can keep 'earning' their fat bonuses. But the massive bailouts are creating the financial environment that leads to economic calamity. Short term gain leading to long term pain.

Everybody in the financial community knows about all of this fraud and theft. The Justice Department, the SEC, the CFTC, and the rest of the regulatory agencies know what is going on. It's a mass collusion to maintain the current state of operations. From what I've seen, the plan is for the bankers to continue to earn massive amounts of money, and then when the system melts down, they then pass the bill to the people. But meanwhile, they will have taken their obscene profits and used them to purchase tangible assets. So when the US Dollar (and most other fiat currencies) collapses, they will be relatively unscathed, and will still have the ability to stay wealthy, while normal people will become the equivalent of 21st century serfs.

Remember: wealth is neither created or destroyed--it only changes hands. This will be one of the greatest shifts in wealth in history. Don't be an ambivalent dupe.

Are you listening? The Bailouts Just Don't Make Sense

We've turned America into a socialist, dishonest country, and it didn't just start with Obama. This is not a good situation, and there are no 'green shoots'. The plan appears to be to take America down, and it is mostly an accomplished feat. Most people are so disillusioned, so confused, so programmed that they can't see or hear the truth, and have been narcotized into quiet submission. Check this video out & tell me what you think.

The Great Depression of the 21st Century: Collapse of the Real Economy

In short, this is all about the people behind the financial sector of the economy taking the 'bailout' money and using it to buy up all the industries and other tangible assets for pennies on the dollar. So we've basically been fleeced to finance the next stage of the 'rape and pillage' of America and the rest of the world.

Does The Bailout Pass The Smell Test?

http://www.rense.com/general83/snlkl.htm

It has been my opinion that this 'bailout' does not pass the 'smell
test' as well. One of the major problems has been the hyperinflation of
the US Dollar. It is creating price inflation simultaneously with wage
deflation, which is a double-whammy for most average working people. It
will only continue to get worse because the financial system will
require a lot more 'bailouts' if it is to survive. What the PTB are
doing (i.e., the 'bailouts') will only make the final denouement that
much worse than if they would have just left it alone. But these people
are going for the maximum profits and are hell-bent on inflicting the
absolute maximum amount of financial pain and destruction that they can
muster upon the heads (and pocketbooks) of the normal people of the US,
and of the world. This event is going to have consequences on most of
the economies of the world.

Naomi Klein: "Now Is the Time to Resist Wall Street's Shock Doctrine"

The following article says just about all of it. The bottom line is that this bailout of Wall Street is for the benefit of the 'Fat Cats', and we get the bill for their lavish lifestyles and golden parachutes. The economy is already doomed to have a significant recession-depression. This bailout will only make it that much worse. These people have profited from this real estate bubble and the exorbitant profits they made from investing in financial derivatives. Now they want US to finance the mess THEY created! Don't let them get away with it! Do whatever you can to stop this! Contact your congressman & senators, forward this (and other) e-mails and web sites that tell the truth about this to everybody you know... We have to stop these crooks & criminals in suits from totally wrecking this country. They're trying to protect their own butts from the meat grinder by putting OUR butts in it. Let's not give them the satisfaction. There is a video stream and audio associated with the following link so that you can listen or view the video if you don't want to read it. Now go forth and 'unleash hell' upon the heads of these greedy oligarchs!
