Harry Dent: America Is Headed Off The ‘Demographic Cliff’ And Another Crisis Is Near
Take one look at Harry Dent’s body of work and you’ll know he likes to make predictions.

He wrote The Great Boom Ahead in 1993, The Great Jobs Ahead in 1995, The Great Depression Ahead in 2009, and The Great Crash Ahead in 2011.

What’s ahead now? A “demographic cliff,” according to Dent’s new book… Demographic Cliff: How to Survive and Prosper During the Great Deflation of 2014-2019.

“At Dent Research we have a not-so-secret weapon: demographics,” Dent writes. “It is the ultimate indicator that allows you to see around corners, to predict the most fundamental economic trends not just years but decades in advance.”

Dent spends the bulk of his book arguing that the demographic story has turned against the U.S.

As Boomers retire, it’s not an unfamiliar argument. Dent writes that an aging U.S. will cause deflation that will weaken the economy from 2014-2019.

Here are some of his main points:

This is a good time to make certain any assets we may still have are diversified. A cash holding is a good idea during a deflationary period to take advantage of opportunities.

An article on CNBC.com this morning indicates that people are just not spending. I cannot blame them, sitting on my cash as well.

I don't think deflation will be allowed. It rewards savers who can afford to buy more with lower prices and it makes it harder for us to repay our debt. The debt is stationary so if we decide to print $1 trillion to pay it off, right now we can do that, albeit with serious, most likely world war three, consequences. I think they will ramp up printing at the smallest hint of a deflationary collapse and continue to devalue the dollar until it just collapses, sparking hyperinflation. At this point, Congress will have (probably already have) their alternative currency savings to let them continue to live like kings. So will the rich who are eagerly buying the artificially cheap gold right now. The middle class, dumb as most are, will be left holding the bag and will disappear into poverty with one bank holiday after another, each time their dollar worth less and less.

expect a 50% devaluation real soon now. The insane plan when that happens is your loans get adjusted - x 2 in this case so deval does nada for the average guy. Being in debt will be very bad. We all end up sharecroppers.

 Quoting: Rogue Messenger


The fact that the idiots will be given a VoterID card is secondary to the fact that they are violent and will continue to become more so - both social and genetic factors will drive African violence "through the knee" into a vertical line as we pass the tipping point where the 2nd and 3rd quintiles of the black population can no longer resist the biological imperative to war -

As population densities are driven higher, and standards of living continue to be driven lower, we will see wave after wave of increasing violence among blacks, particularly in the highest-density urban areas. The leading edge of this is already plainly visible, even to the casual observer.

This violence is a neuro-biological response to environmental signals of overpopulation, resulting in an activation of "the war genes" as I have described elsewhere.


So yes, I believe we will see race war as socio-economic conditions continue to worsen, and yes, the data indicates that it will be blacks who will initiate and sustain the violence.

Among black aboriginals (African and Australian) more than 65% engage in tribal warfare with regularity. The average outbreak of inter-tribal violence is <=2 years. In contrast, only 10% of aboriginal tribes abstain from violence for a period of 20 years or greater.

There is a substantial warning in these facts - tribes who participate in warfare, tend to see favorable selection for those most fit for war, and adept at engaging in it. In the event of widespread and open racial violence in North America lasting 18 months or more, there will likely be a trailing wave of births in which the "war genes" are much more active (>1.5 SD) than the present baseline of the male African population in N.A. The implication being that once initiated, racial violence has a very high likelihood of becoming perennial due to neuro-genetic reinforcement effects upon the active population, in addition to the generational desire for revenge upon the opposing faction/race.

As I have elsewhere stated, the outcome of racial conflict for blacks will not be good. They will either be killed, deported, or returned to slavery. Since mass deportation is prohibitively cost and labor intensive, and would be heavily resisted, I don't expect that to be seriously considered... leaving two very undignified outcomes, which are not mutually exclusive by any standard.

WE HAVE BEEN WARNED

YOU, and only YOU are responsible for maintaining the balance of power between you and the rest of the semi-sentient beings in this world. You cannot disclaim or delegate that responsibility; it is a function of being a living, breathing "adult" in this world. If you can't manage yourself on those terms, someone else *will* manage you on their terms. Your terms are irrelevant. Buy a rifle; prepare to defend yourself. If you don't, what happens is *your* fault. Period.
