Bring it ON! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1352142Ron Paul 2012! I love Ron Paul, but he needed to be elected instead of the original Bush, (or Douche) for America to have had a chance. I am certain that it is too late to prevent the US death spiral. But that's just me. |

Heavyheadfred User ID: 1474461 United Kingdom 07/19/2011 07:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Like the man said, you are not going to stop it, it is planned to happen this way, why do you think that all this bailout nonsense does not work, because they are simply buying time, ease the jitters for a short time before they appear again, and again until the time is right, then they take the net away, and we all fall down. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1474331 United States 07/19/2011 08:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What would happen if the euro does collapse? Would they all go back to their old currencies or would their be no money. This may seem like a daft question but I am genuinely interested, would everything stop? Food, fuel, etc. Would people stop going to work? Please someone tell me what will happen? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1474392Thanks Good question. I'm not sure you'll get a definitive answer though. I don't think anyone really knows how far this will go yet. I could very well lead to war down the road. Thank you this is what I thought. Who knows? But surely they have destroyed the old currencies and you wouldn't be able to go to the cashpoint and wtf would be the point in going to work and if so the shelves won't be stocked and you wouldn't be able to buy fuel and all HELL would break loose. OMFG!!!!! Ordo ab chao |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1470956 Australia 07/19/2011 08:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Slow Fuse Will Keep Burning Through July July 18, 2011 "Although it is impossible to predict exactly how the smoke will twirl off the end of a cigarette, you can predict with certainty that eventually the smoke will be evenly distributed throughout the room. In the same way, while it is impossible to predict the individual twists and turns of the collapse of the Federal Reserve Board and the Western financial system, the end game is not in doubt. In this case, a look at the macro numbers, such things as balance of payments, external debt, tax revenue etc. show clearly that the fall of small dominoes like Greece will lead inevitably to the big Kahuna: the United States. For now though, the order of collapse appears to be as follows: Greece, Ireland, the Baltic States, Spain, Italy, France and finally the United States. Have no doubt, there is money in the rest of the world to help these countries rebuild and restructure their economies. The rest of the world is also willing and eager to help. However, as a precondition for this help, these countries need to fundamentally change their behavior. So far, they seem too arrogant to understand the reality that they are no longer in charge of the global show. They no longer have the money to pay the actors." [link to eclinik.wordpress.com] |

This full scale attack to the Euro started when the Chinese decided to get rid of the Dollar. This is financial warfare in progress. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1472082The attack on the Euro started with the war in Iraq. Euro dies, dollar lives. No one is trading in Yuan or Yen. Eurocatastrophe is good for America.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1458601 United States 07/19/2011 08:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Euro vs USA tards, You're idiots on both sides. Any GLPer should know reported debt figures are complete BS. USA gov't claims 9.2% unemployment and 3% inflation when both figures are over 15% by everyone's estimate besides theirs. Similarly, they claim debt of approximately $15 trillion when Fannie and Freddie have $6 trillion easy, not to mention the $1500 trillion of derivatives debts that were admitted to exist two years ago before QE1 and QE2. The ONLY question is whether the collapse will be a collapse of the banking families into restored Republics, or the collapse of Republicans into a permanent fascist world empire. Both systems are slated for collapse without politicians stepping forward that are simultaneously not afraid to challenge the banking families and lucky enough to survive long enough to get their ideas out and build public momentum behind them. |

Quoting: Sediive said it before and ill say it again we need these types of stories to be in the mainstream media news fox/ccn/sky etc before it will have an afect on the markets...other wise it means shit One would think that maybe if the normal media will not take this news mainstream, you need to come up with a way to bring the mainstream to you.... Classic television and news reporting is dead, it is time to re create the business. Kids now days dont watch TV, they watch things like netflix, how and when they want it... Not like when we grew up... If we wanted to watch something our buts had to be parked in the couch at the time when our boradcaster wanted us sitting on a couch... Time for a change.... Get it ?

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1474349So, if it does happen, everyone with a good stash of pre-Fukushima organic food and potable spring water is welcome to email me their location. In case the internet is permanently down, just send up some smoke signals in the general direction of Atlantic Canada. I'll bring the marshmallows. And a cat. Much obliged. Deal! I'll smoke you from over here and you can pop over and we'll have a nice cup of tea followed by some kangaroo steaks (plenty of those). Please bring your delightful Canadian wit, excellent written and oral communication skills and a good understanding of astrophysics. Y'all are both welcome in Tulsa, Oklahoma should you meet the "trusted traveler" stamp of approval!

Luvapottamus User ID: 1428854 United States 07/19/2011 08:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A comment to the article: Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1472082Reason is simple; the British media obsess with Europe because the only way the US/UK can avoid total implosion of the bankrupt Anglosphere financial economy is by attempting to trigger a currency crisis in a rival region like the Eurozone. The US is completely bankrupt; there is no way out ; this year they will run a $ 2 trillion deficit ; their debt is $ 14 trillion and they have $ 114 trillion unfunded liabilities. The US regime is fighting 5 losing wars in AfPak,Iraq, Libya and Yemen and 50% of all US states including California are bankrupt. The US/UK are desperate therefore to avoid the total implosion of their ponzi scheme financial system; they are desperately attempting to trigger a financial collapse in a rival to trigger fund flows into their bankrupt financial system. This is why every European should understand that the number 1 national security threat to all Europeans is the financial terror orchestrated by the US/UK and launched via their armies of US Credit ratings agencies, US/UK news agencies and US/UK hedge funds. The US Credit ratings agencies, US/UK news agencies and US/UK hedge funds are engaged in full blown financial terror against Europe in a desperate attempt to trigger a collapse to send fund flows into the bankrupt anglosphere. ^THIS^ And it's not "Americans" or the "British" that are in control of it. I do think we owe the world a favor to take control and oust the evil dicks that are. In a bloodless way. General strike-don't go to work. Hard to coordinate, but that'd be the most effective.
