I agree with you that a deflationary depression and social chaos are on the way. While Obama might be much worse than a Lenist/Marxist, he does understand from them that revolution and chaos are manageable. Results in Russia, China, Cuba, Vietnam, etc., prove them to be right. The right place at the right time with the right forms of power do make a dictatorship possible.

I never liked the spiking gold price as an investment unless it was the metal itself. (And, even with the metal, what goes up quickly can come down quickly.) Gold on paper is still paper. Shares of anything are useless. I tend to agree with Pearl Buck’s Wang Lung that land is real wealth. With it a man can sustain himself and his family. Some of the old timers in our church speak of the depression, and emphasize that farm families were best off because, if nothing else, they always had food. So, land, some arable and some wooded, makes it possible for a family to live. (IF they will work.)

Obama’s gambit is to throw the nation into chaos to see what can be gained from it.

Some have pointed out that ammo should be on the list of real wealth. I agree. I had some chili the other day made from the King’s deer. Tasty. And ammo has other uses.

My sense, sister, is that your 401k is probably worth at least double in middle american rather than Massachusetts or anyplace else in the northeast. Glen Beck is urging people to move to Texas. He has a point.

Yeah — "Never let a good crisis go to waste."

FWIW, I totally agree with the idea that Republicans should just walk away from the "negotiations." There are no negotiations to be had, from 0bama's perspective: He is demanding total surrender.

He thinks he has a "mandate," because "elections have consequences." Okay, let him OWN his mandate; let the (clueless!!!) people see what they actually voted for.

The Republicans do not have the political capital to stop him. So they shouldn't even try. They should just step away from the table....

Thank you so much, dear brother in Christ, for your outstanding analysis!
