Click on my name in this post (above) and it should take you to my latest writings. I wrote about what was coming in a February post on my blog here: http://youcanmakeadifference.org/fedup/archives/5

I was a financial adviser for over 20 years. I left the business 3 1/2 years ago to write a book to expose what I viewed as the flaws in the industry. This book has now evolved into three to resolve bigger issues that confront the U.S., but your conclusion that “The real problem is that it won’t fix the crisis” is spot on. It’s like pouring gasoline on the fire or giving a heroin addict another hit.

It is indeed fear that the government is peddling. It is indeed a form of Marxist socialism. Plank #5: “Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.”

Is this not what they did with Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan? What about Fannie and Freddie? The list goes on and it won’t stop there.

In reality it is both the left and the right that are taking this country down a socialistic path. It will be difficult to overcome this new wave of socializing to the tune of over a trillion dollars that they have put upon us.

With over 10 trillion of current debt, the U.S. is heading down a slippery slope as eventually the dollar will head back below 80 and towards self implosion.

Look at the analysis I did comparing the economic data of Iceland and the U.S. here: http://youcanmakeadifference.org/fedup/archives/31

Iceland had better economic data than the U.S. in 2007 and only 1% unemployment and a trade surplus yet their currency called the Krona lost 75% this year and their stock market lost 77% with interest rates currently at 18%. This is the future of the U.S. It’s a matter of “when,” not “if.”

But you can trust the government to keep trying to print more money to bail us out, erm, excuse me, “rescue” the Americans. But how long can this game continue with a balance sheet your financial adviser would have you short? If Americans don’t know any better, who is going to tell them they’re getting a raw deal? Americans are the ones thinking that Treasuries are a good, safe investment!

Hopefully my books will be out soon enough to warn them. This isn’t going to end well. How can it when congress never stops spending and the Fed never stops the printing press? Where’s the checks and balances the Bible speaks of? It will soon change from “We The People,” to “We The Serfs!” (yes…I have that website too…for future use!)….

Peace and keep up the good writing!

I’m guessing you may be panicking over the election your favorite candidate is about to lose. Losing sucks. Better luck next time to you.[/quote]

I am on Kenrick’s Point Of View. By a simple Reframe, the shift clicks in and voila, it doesn’t sound like it’s a problem anymore. However I wonder what crisis needs to be fixed here? And is crisis for one, opprtunity for others? Certainly the arguement could be made that the government actions are taking them where they shouldn’t be, that is, if we wish to remain in a free market system. Thanks for challenging us KC!
