Guns or Butter?
America Will Have To Choose
This year, America will have to choose between funding its plans for global military supremacy, or feeding its poor and homeless.
It no longer has enough money to do both, and the rest of the world won't lend America any more money.

Recession Deniers
Go See "The Big Short" Movie
Just before the last financial meltdown in 2008, everyone - including the chairman of the US Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan - denied that there was a housing bubble that was about to cause a massive financial meltdown.
Nothing has changed since the 2008 financial meltdown. The US banks are just as corrupt, stupid and greedy. No US banker or mortgage broker went to jail for causing the 2008 meltdown because of their corrupt business practices. The "too big to fail" banks were bailed out by the US taxpayer. In fact, the banks even gave bonuses to the bankers that caused it all.
Now we are about to have a re-run of the 2008 meltdown. Same financial corruption, stupidity and greed is causing this re-run.
The same people that denied that our financial system was about to collapse in 2008 are now denying that we are starting a re-run of this collapse in 2016.

Banks Are Telling Their Rich Clients To Get Out Of Stocks
At The Same Time, Banks Tell Small Investors To Stay In Stocks
That's exactly what the banks did in 2007; thus their rich clients got out of the stock market before it crashed. The small stock investor went down with the ship.

Commodity Prices Are Plummeting: Is A Global Deflationary Recession Coming?
Actually, Commodities Have Been In A Recession Since Last Year
The major thing that kept our stock markets from collapsing was central banks massively inflating the money supply, and keeping near zero interest rates. That flooded global stock markets with more money for speculation; however it did little to spur growth in the "real economy".
Since the global "real economy" is in recession - except for its financial markets - international trade is dramatically decreased (as exemplified by the very low Dry Baltic Index). Since international trade is depressed, commodity prices are depressed. Dramatically dropping commodity prices are the best indicator that the world has entered a deflationary recession.
So forget the stock market - it isn't a true measure of the "real economy". Instead, look at commodity prices, the Dry Baltic Index, and national unemployment rates; they are far better indicators of the "real economy". 23% Of The U.S. Labor Force Is In A Recession
Also, don't be misled by the official American unemployment rate. It is totally bogus because it defines everyone who is unemployed longer than 6 months as no longer "unemployed" - instead, these individuals are counted as "out of the job market" because "they are no longer looking for work". That's how the American government hides the truth about it's unemployment rate.
If you calculate the American unemployment rate the way the U.S. government did back in the 1990's before they started to fudge their statistics; the current U.S. unemployment rate is 23% ( www.shadowstats.com ). So for 23% of the U.S. labor market; America is already in a recession and people can't find employment.
However, if you work on Wall Street, everything is rosy.

Deutsche Bank Predicts Good Times In 2016
Proof There Is No Consensus In Banking Circles
Earlier this year two major banks, UBS and RBS, predicted that there would be a stock market correction/collapse. Now Deutsche Bank predicts the opposite.
So what are you to believe?
At this point, as usual, all you can conclude is that nobody can predict what's coming.
When I look at commodity prices, world trade (i.e., the Dry Baltic Index) and the "real" U.S. unemployment rate of 23% - I predict we are entering a deflationary recession.
If my prediction is correct; watch oil and commodity prices fall more. Why? Because world trade is drying up.

You Have To See "The Big Short" Movie
This Movie Tells The Story Of The Biggest Banking Fraud In History
This movie tells how the greed and stupidity of banks led to the 2008 financial meltdown.
After this massive banking fraud, not one American banker has gone to prison. One or two major U.S. banks were slapped with fines equal to a small fraction of what they made by doing these frauds. So basically these fines were just paying a business license to continue defrauding the public.
Nothing has changed in the banking sector since 2008. That's why we are about to repeat this financial meltdown this year (or in 2017). Today's corrupt bankers can not keep this scam going; it will collapse.
