I have a strong suspicion that Obama and his troops are trying to provoke a massive selloff in stocks and bonds to further their political position. And a selloff like that could conceivably become a self-fulfilling prophecy, driving the economy into recession. Indeed, it could drive the whole global economy back into recession, since U.S markets are the epicenter of the world's system.

Has it occurred to anybody that this result just might be the objective that Obama seeks: the destroy the U.S. economy...utterly?

That it might be no misjudgment, no miscalculation, and instead be Obama's ultimate political objective.

That’s what the Iranians were saying last year. That’s the aim, to collapse the US economy.

Yes. Cloward Piven. Crash the system. It’s been the plan all along.
