Make a guess and place you bets – we all know it’s on it way, the next crash is going to happen sooner or later, it's just a question of what the left will try to do to not waste another “serious crisis”
Think about it – the Fed is Printing money.. .excuse me “Digitizing” – they can’t even go through the motion of spitting out worthless paper that diminishes our savings, they have to add insult to injury with that sort o chicanery
Let’s face it, somewhere in the deep dark crevices of the leftist mind, they have their socialist national wish list, waiting to be sprung on the country at the right opportunity.
And what would be better than a Serious crisis they create and they can unleash at any time.

Yes, I know they are those who think the current occupant of the oval office is an incompetent neophyte
Recent events in Florida have highlighted that there is a very good chance that Obamacare will be an anchor around the neck of the DNC.
Ask yourself – what will happen if the GOP retakes the senate?
Most assuredly Obama will want to continue with his pen and phone retinue, and at some point the GOP will have to step in to stop him.
The ‘they won’t even dare impeach the first black president’ can only go so far. At some point history and freedom will mandate that those who support the cause of liberty will have to do just that.
Let’s list these possibilities by their probabilities coupled with how outrageous they are – a close correlation I might add.
Odds on Favorites
1). Another “Stimulus” – this almost goes without saying.
Obama and his comrades’ love redistributing other people’s money – and it would be easy to see them trying this given this opportunity for them.
2). Debt write off - this is also a great way for the national socialist left to do an instant wealth redistribution scam.
It would an instant way of rewarding those in debt and royally screwing those who hold this debt.
3). ‘One-Time’ wealth taxes or taxes on savings – again another easy form of wealth redistribution.
They would do as was done in Cyprus taking a ‘haircut’ of people’s savings.
[I say ‘one time’ because with the , one time is never really one time]

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financialcrisis/10548104/IMF-paper-warns-of-savings-tax-and-mass-write-offs-as-Wests-debt-hits-200-year-high.html
4). Nationalizing 401 K’s - this has already been batted around. Let ‘s face it – there are huge piles of money they droll over and they will steal it and hand it out to their parasite voters if given the opportunity.
Democrats Are After Your 401(k)
http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2012/11/29/democrats_are_after_your_401_k
The left has already made noises about written off debt and forgiving loans – after all it would be great way for them to instantly transfer trillions in wealth.
5). Raise Taxes – yes, this should be number one, after all the knee jerk reaction the have to any issue is to raise taxes and increase regulation.
6) Draconian regulation – this goes hand in hand with raising taxes. They will go through the motions of investigation why the economy blew up – and lo and behold, if all you have is a hammer ( and sickle) everything looks like a nail
Expect them to decide is our freedom that lead to this unfortunate events and fully expect them to call for a clamp down on that freedom – for the common good of course.
7). Carbon Taxes on Carbon ‘pollution’
8). Mortgage bailouts – what better way to screw the banksters and reward Obama’s friends with easy mortgage money?
With clock ticking on mortgage relief, homeowners wonder what’s ahead

9). Student loan bailouts – again, it’s all about spreading that wealth around.
Student debt may hurt housing recovery by hampering first-time buyers

Remember this isn’t all about grabbing power, it’s also about using a crisis to buy votes and future constituency loyalty – and what better way to do than with other people’s money?
Even money – these are the less obvious items on the socialists national wish list. Items they haven’t tried before but given the seriousness of the “Crisis”, are likely to be trotted out
Getting down into the more outrageous solutions – and that term outrageous being relative to the degree of the crisis.
1). Delaying the midterm elections – Obama has already set a precedent in doing this in other areas – with a sufficiently big enough crisis, this might be in the cards…
Of course this would depend on when the crisis occurs, but would anyone put ti past them to read the tea leaves about their impending political doom and trigger a crisis to forgo this ‘unfortunate’ event?
This idea was already floated as a trial balloon a few years ago
Perdue: Cancel congressional elections September 27, 2011

Apparently she drew the short straw to put this out there to foreshadow the idea and see what kind of reaction it gets.
And this is why:
Why a Republican Wave in 2014 is Looking More Likely Now
http://www.nationaljournal.com/politics/why-a-republican-wave-in-2014-is-looking-more-likely-now-20140311
2). Universal amnesty AND instant citizenship – this has been knocking around capitol hill for quite awhile now.
It’s like the monster in a B grade horror movie that keeps on coming back to life just when you think it’s dead.
Amnesty is dead! No its alive! Now it’s dead..
You can expect then to come out with this – it’s on their wish list, it’s just a question of just what they think they can get away with.
3). Nationalizing other industries besides healthcare and automobile.
Firearms? Oil and energy companies?
4). Granting voting rights to felons (something Obama is going to do for himself futurewise)
5). Pushing through National Socialist healthcare
Long shot
1). Declaring martial law [presumably after some coincidental] civil disturbances or terrorist attacks
2). Suspending the Constitution
Pen and a Phone anyone?
3). Banning and Confiscating guns in civilian possession
You know this has to be on their wish list
4). The creation or coalescing of state security apparatus
Obama civilian national security force.

5). Foreign UN ‘helpers' to keep order
Saw this online and thought I would re-post it here – it brings up some interesting questions on what our rulers are up to.
So what do you think?
Do you have any additions to the lists?
Would you move any of their items from their wish list to different categories?
The regime is either incredible incompetent or incredibly evil.
What difference does it make? He doesn’t think the current crisis are crisis...
:: Place You bets ::
Ebonics? Itali-onics?
Forewarned is fore armed
Obviously, that should be ‘Place Your Bets’..
Like what crises? He runs out of KOOLS?
You can rule out the ones that require bills from congress.
If a crisis doesn’t materialize, they will create one. Not a problem for Oblarney and company.
BHO does not intend to leave the office. He desires to be dictator for life.
The economy works in cycles – you can’t just print money forever without it having a negative effect.
Think of 2008 on steroids.
Obama has already shown a willingness to violate the law to get what he wants.
Example:
Treasury didn’t check for legal authority before delaying Obamacare mandate
http://washingtonexaminer.com/treasury-didnt-check-for-legal-authority-before-delaying-obamacare-mandate/article/2545995
The proper way to handle the crisis is to go golfing before the fundraiser
And they can do that almost at the flip of a switch with a sudden cutback in the Quantitative Easing program.
That seems to be the only thing propping up the economy at this point.
OK, keep the ones that involve him not enforcing laws that he doesnt like if you like, that will still decimate the list.
Barry wont be doing anything but kickin back and watching games for the next week..
the cats away ..
Oh, I’m sure that given the right timing just before the midterms, there could be another serious crisis that lets them do what they couldn’t have done before.
Things like suspending an election… just for a couple of months…. Then for a few months more…
The Dems would still hold control of the government and the GOP church mice wouldn’t dare be ‘unpatriotic’ and challenge Obama’s authority to do what needs to be done in crisis.
Obama has already ignored other parts of our founding documents, what’s to stop him from ignoring the ‘suggestion’ that he be limited to two terms.
Just don’t forget that the GOP trembles in their boots at the prospect of being labeled as Racist.
Think of a situation of the country being the midst of a catastrophic economic disaster and the Dems and the media (that’s repeating myself, but I digress) brow beating them for being obstructionists.
Enough of them could cave to make a great deal of that speculation possible.
I think he going appease my state Demo party Cali demos in Sac-Town probably immigration I think Israel bomb Iran nukes might be next security foreign crisis to him it is
He don’t want mean ole jews mess up his March Madness games watching
