It’s called preferential treatment.

A bond is a promise of an entreprizer to make good on his idea on a piece of land. So he gets money or land in exchange for a bond and pays double at the end.

This time everything is skewed because the government has promised no matter what to make good on that bond. It’s powerful. It’s Obama’s power and hostage situation, really. IF he “fails” (and he is successful however in spreading that market cancer), then everything fails.

He can act and do whatever he wants. The government is screwed and the bureaucrates behind him are in for a big surprize.

However, as all such deals and preferential treatment, it usualy degenerates really really badly to the point of total endangerment. The result is coming collapse.

It’s not a recession nor a depression, it’s a financial and moral cancer. IT’s going to start bleeding at one point in time.

I would invest in, say, some kind of gas station franchise or something of that nature that works always in any time. The serious raw stuff of all economics. Maybe even going into the survival and bullet business.

Things like Tobacco, coffee and other addictive stress stuff that goes out the window and gets taxed... yep sir.

You talk about your back? Invest in pain killers or pharmacy stuff.

Rule of thumb, during a depression, “sin stocks” work, ie. entertainment of any kind, because people are unemployed and buy into that stuff.

Never invest in Facebook style IPOs. They know the stock will go down and that is why they initiate. Only invest when FB is about to buy back stocks because of the depression everyone will be screwing around on the net.

You could also turn your house into a beer brewry, or, better yet, invest in a shrimp fishing franchise. If they try to tax you here, you can always sell your shrimp in Canada or Mexico and base yourself there...

Thanks for your input.

I will take it all into consideration.

All that is but for the idea of investing into “sin stocks”. The return would be great I agree, but the damage to my soul could be irrevocable. I try to keep my money invested in things that are not dependent upon the ability, or inability of others to stay clear of moral depravity.

I do agree that there are those things I have no control of, and it is those that i give over to the Lord.

Thanks again for all the insight though,

OV
