It's the Obama socialist borrowing 17 trillion $ that is crashing the world economy.

by election time in 2016 the USA and world will be in a full depression (mark my words you heard it here first). This will allow Republicans to finally capture a super majority in Congress which will allow something to finally be done about this huge government and tyranny

I’ve said this before. Our policies and sanctions have pushed others into war, and this will push Russia into war. The question is, how many will die from this next war?

Putin could embargo Russia’s ~~ 8 million barrels per day of oil, and embargo Russia’s exports of 1/3 of Europe’s natural gas.

Overnight Russia would replace Saudi Arabia as OPEC’s price-setting power-broker.

I like the low prices too.

Although don’t ever tell me again that the oil prices are not manipulated. We can clearly see it cab be driven any time they want.

What I find most interesting is the following.

The Admin station is using the same tactic the Reagan Admin to defeat the Soviet Union. Every time we bought a tank the Soviet Union bought 10, and it eventually bankrupted them.

However, Russia economically are Capitalist and not Communist. They have a 13% flat tax and nothing else.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_tax

The lower gas prices is going to be a boom for businesses around the world. This is because it will not cost so much to fuel the trucks, planes, etc... The cost of doing business will go down which means more people will be hired, and that translates into more tax payers.

I don’t know who fooled the Admin to think this would hurt Russia. It’s going to do the exact opposite. Now if the Russians were communist economically, then yes it would work. However, again they have a 13% flat tax. This is going to help Russia and not hurt them.

Beck this morning in agreement with this headline. Hannity this afternoon suggesting the opposite. Hannity doesn’t get it, underestimates Putin.

“Russia’s suddenly escalating financial crisis risks spilling beyond its borders and endangering parts of the global economy.”

It’s the friggin’ AP. Who besides leftist commies, fascists and Nazis believes the liars at AP?

I believe we could be seeing the global chess board positioning for WWIII. It’s all falling into place for it.

I hope something will happen that will stop it.

Remember, hackers, probably backed by Russia, have put all this bad code into our energy infrastructure. All the Russians have to do is to activate it, and it’s American Blackout.

Since we export very little now as our manufacturing base is overseas how does a down turn in the gloBULL economy affect the USA? We already laid off our manufacturing workforce on purpose decades ago.

——This means Russia’s GDP has been halved in dollar terms, putting it roughly on par with Mexico and Indonesia as the world’s 15th largest economy.——

Russia Population 143,900,000

Mexico Population 118,395,054

Indonesia Population 252,164,800

So, Russia should be compared to Mexico and Indonesia and not the real first tier nations of the world. Mexico is one of the largest auto manufacturers in the world.

Putin is in reality a pretender and a pretender rapidly going down the tubes

War? Perhaps but I doubt he has the ability for sustained projection
