If the average sheep had a clue they would pull all of their money out of banks, out of the market, Tell the corporate world to fuck off, we have the power to shut it down just not the intellegence to see it.

Re: Americans Have No Clue!
This has been in the making for 40 years, the economy is not collapsing due to one mans policies, the manufacturing base was not lost in America due to one president. American workers did not become the most spoiled, well paid population in the world overnight, The derivitives market did not reach 650 trillion in a few years, Debt did not overpower GDP due to a presidents decisions. Americans expect to be taken care of by their government, expect sick days, vacation, insurance, holidays off, unemployment insurance, coffee breaks. We are entitled and dillusional. We have no idea how to stop expecting what we have always known and it will be our demise. Hostess is a good expmple today... The unions have destroyed america and we have made this bed we now are being forced to lay in. History is clear, and the refusal of americans to learn history is what will insure our repeating it.

Re: Americans Have No Clue!
But as the crisis mood congeals people will come to the jarring realization that they have grown helplessly dependent on a teetering edifice of anonymous transactions and paper garuntees. Many americans wont know where their savings are, who their employer is , what their pension is, or how their government works. The era will have left the financial world arbitraged and tentacled; Debtors wont know who owns their mortgages, and shareholders who runs their equities and vise versa. Strauss & Howe 1997
 Quoting: smokahontas


Nafta, the WTO, none of that had anything to do with Obama, HE IS A PUPPET! It is retarded to blame the president for the economy,,, any of them
 Quoting: smokahontas


You have everything exactly right!!!!
I was trying to tell people that Goldman did the restructuring of debt for the country of Greece years ago and I said it was going to be the end of them because they were going to cook the books. People thought I was nuts.

I guess if American Idol is still on and the mall is still open to most people there can't be any REAL problems.

I applaud you for all of your well-thought and factual comments.

Re: Americans Have No Clue!
We will se the end of entitlements, EBT, section 8, welfare, Medicaid, SSI, Disability. We cannot afford to pay 50% of the country to sit on their asses anymore, when it happens all hell will break loose as the sheep cannot fathom the idea of getting dirty, manual labor ar sweat. This is what happens when you tell 2 generations of people to go get useless degrees and get a good job so they do not have to work as hard as their parents and grandparents did. Human nature got us here, and there is no stopping it now.

This monetary system was set up for us....we did not get to decide, whether we wanted to have a debt ridden credit system..of trade and barter!

The elites set this train wreck up....we as a unified people,if we knew any better, and were educated enough about our economy, we would have stayed with a bartering and trade system...from back in the day.

So, to sit there, blaming us for something we had no control over to begin with, is asinine.

Our only recourse, is to stop using the very system that was designed for us. To many people have no clue as to how to survive off this current system. It would be pure chaos.

Re: Americans Have No Clue!
Even if you could get back the 56,000 factories closed since 2001, I doubt you could find enough people to work in them. The gen xers, and millineum gen are opposed to hard work or manual labor. Getting sweaty is not their idea of a good job. Degrees in Liberal arts and Buisness, we were told to go to college and get a good job so that we did not have to work as hard as our parents and grandparents did. That is why we have no farmers, no innovation. The last thing america invented was Spanks. Our number one export is Trash, number two is the dollar. We have off-shored our manufacturing base, we have allowed the idustrial centers to collapse and rust, the UAW and Teamsters insured that big buisness would leave this country as it is impossible to pay the labor here. We score at the bottom of the industrial world in Math, Science, and history. We have 4.8% of the world population and 25% of the world prisoners... free labor! Wake up people this is the end of Empire.
 Quoting: smokahontas


Willfull ignorance is to blame as much as anything. It is easier to watch t.v. than to figure out how we got here. The perfect example is the new card halmark has made for kids to send to santa, they can record thier list rather than writing it down, How fucking lazy can we get?

Re: Americans Have No Clue!
Americans will bitch and moan themselves right into Martail Law. The pentagon is activley war gaming for civil unrest due to economic collapse. The FEMA camps will have a big blinking sign that reads: Three Hots and a Cot, Internet, Cable, and Prscriptions filled. The Sheep will fight to get in to be taken care of. They wont have to round people up, they wont have to fire a shot. This population is the least self reliant society in the world. Granted by design...yet no excuse to put your head in the sand and hope the gov makes it all go away

Re: Americans Have No Clue!
From the Harvard Economic Research Project 1948:

When subject citizens are rendered unable to control their financial affairs, they of course become totally enslaved, a source of cheap labor.

The general rule is that there is profit in confusion; the more confusion the more profit. Therefore, the best approach is to create problems and then offer solutions.

The primary reason why the individual citizen of a country create political structure is a subconcious wish or desire to perpetuate their own dependancy relationship of childhood. Simply put, they want a human God to eliminate all risk from their lives, pat them on the head, kiss their bruises, put a chicken on every dinner table, clothe their bodies, tuck them into bed at night and tell them everything is going to be alright when they wake in the morning. This public demand is incredible, so the human God, the politician, meets incredibility with incredibility by promising the world and delivering nothing. So who's the bigger liar? The Public or the Godfather


They have had it figured out for a long time!
