“When we hear the mainstream media assuring us in soothing, condescending tones that we’re in an economic “recovery” – despite all evidence to the contrary – we want desperately to believe them.”
Eaxctly the same thing happened during the Great Depression. (From “The Great Crash 1929” by John Kenneth Galbraith, copyright 1954)
The mainstream media kept assuring Americans that “the bottom is here, no way to go but up” and “recovery is here”. This continued for years as the Depression deepened.

50% of the public believes that it can’t happen here simply because it hasn’t happened YET.

We actually surrounded by retards every day.

I read an article the other day that seemed to indicate were looking at anther massive crash due to the fact that current market explosion is an artificial product of the Federal reserves inflationary policy. In other-words investors are in the unenviable position of either investing money in the market and hoping for a return or watching it melt away due to devaluation.

While there are many good economic prospects in theses united States the fact remains we are in an international market with an enormous disadvantage in the cost of labor, taxes, and regulations.

A very accurate article in it's assessment as to WHY no one seems to be concerned with all the "tell-tale" signs being observed.

As the Boy Scouts taught me many, many years ago, "BE PREPARED."

Any Marxist worth his salt - and, let’s face it, Obama is a hardcore Marxist - knows that you cannot usher in the revolution without massive social unrest.

From Keynes' "The Economic Consequences of the Peace":

Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency.

By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily; and, while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some. The sight of this arbitrary rearrangement of riches strikes not only at security, but at confidence in the equity of the existing distribution of wealth. Those to whom the system brings windfalls, beyond their deserts and even beyond their expectations or desires, become 'profiteers,' who are the object of the hatred of the bourgeoisie, whom the inflationism has impoverished, not less than of the proletariat.

As the inflation proceeds and the real value of the currency fluctuates wildly from month to month, all permanent relations between debtors and creditors, which form the ultimate foundation of capitalism, become so utterly disordered as to be almost meaningless; and the process of wealth-getting degenerates into a gamble and a lottery.

Lenin was certainly right.
There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose.

Can you say QE?
What do you think happens when you have $2.5Trillion in income, but budget $3.75Trillion and have $100Trillion in debt, pay $2.5Trillion in interest on that debt and must pay $2.5Trillion for entitlements.

Do you think there were survivalists in Russia and China before they went socialist? How did that work out for them? If you want your opponent to lose, fragment his forces and have some of them completely retreat. And yes, they will infiltrate people into the opposition to fragment them and try to convince them that all is lost.

Turn around the outsourcing of American jobs now.

People need to work.

America needs money.

Both of those things are heading the wrong way. America is dissolving in front of our very eyes.

BUILD IT BACK. Stop sending US factories to China.

Deliberate?  Can't imagine what could make them think that.

"Oops"
