Indeed, I woke up to this headline on Drudge Report. The first thing that came to mind. (((They))) want you divided, by race, by….
the moar the (((rats))) get cornered, the moar the attacks escalate.
Good point,
I was a youth exchange student in the early 70's. I observed a slow creep of western American culture. I stayed with 4 families while there, all of them kind, generous, inquisitive, respectful. I enjoyed their culture,
then as I do now.
problem is they have a huge debt problem, like the EU, they had to allocate buying equities to compensate for bond purchases a few years back. as large government pensions are forced to buy debt at extremely low or negative interest (NIRP and ZIRP) they've forced capital to buy elsewhere, who would buy gov't debt at 0 or -0 interest rates.
foreign capital is moving to equities, which is why our share market has steadily gone up, I believe this will continue as the EU collapses then probably Japan. figure POTUS will negotiate to draw capital into America from Japan, where else can they go?
currency market is huge, much money to be made but consider not even half the retail market is in equities. despite volatility which will continue probably until 2020-21. so capital inflows from unstable gov't due to lack of confidence as the public sector dies off, private sector stocks will launch, then comes the other half of the retail market as their fear of 2008 collapse subsides. Dow will be off the charts.
to your point, there will come a time where the monetary system will be overhauled and reset, the Keynesian economics theory has died, total disaster and those responsible are the usual suspects gov't over spending and borrowing and of course the big banks.
one big ass debt-O-rama.
