Obama to Imitate Stalin?
http://www.sovereignman.com

Senator Tom Harkin introduced a bill requiring Obama to develop a comprehensive national manufacturing strategy.    In effect, Senator Harkin wants Obama to centrally plan the economy.    Never mind that Obama has zero experience in business or manufacturing.   So, how big of a piano needs to be dropped on people’s heads before they notice what is happening?

Government Transparency Hits Record Low
http://www.zerohedge.com

According to the AP, who examined 5600 data elements measuring transparency, the Obama administration has hit a record low in transparency.    Specifically, the number of times the government withheld, or censored, reports in 2012 was up 22% from 2011.   What is even more scary is that fact that the government has cited “national security” in legal cases and won without having to present evidence.

FAA Grounds Private Drones
http://minnesota.cbslocal.com

A Minnesota business, using drones for aerial photographic work on construction sites, had a booming business until the they received a call from the FAA ordering them to ground their drones because current regulations don’t allow unmanned aircraft for commercial purposes.   The government can fly drones, but American citizens cannot.  Sounds like tyranny; however, the good news is that the U.N. is trashing the U.S. governments use of drones in infringing on Pakistan’s sovereignty.

Manufactured Eggs
http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com

Duplicating China’s efforts, a company, based in where else…  San Francisco, has come up with a way to produce a fake egg made up of a variety of plants and other plant-based protein sources.    Just imagine the chemicals used in the manufacturing process.    I think I will pass as I head for the Hen house.

Finally, please prepare now for the escalating economic and social unrest.   Good Day!

Is Gold Finished?
http://seekingalpha.com

It is healthy to second-guess one’s decisions.    Since the early 2000s, gold prices have risen by several multiples; however, since 2011, gold has traded sideways.    With that said, the debt-to-GDP ratios across the developed world are going from bad-to-worse.    Then, there is the backwardation that is going on and the increased printing by central banks.    So, is gold finished?    In the short term, that is debatable; however, in the long term, it is far from finished.

Consumer spending in the U.S. rose 0.2% in January even as incomes dropped by 3.6% – the most in 20 years. In addition, disposable income dropped 4%.    So could inflation and the tax increases be the reason for these numbers?

Codes On Stickers Of Fruits And Some Veggies
http://www.drfranklipman.com

Ever wonder what those numerical codes mean on those fruits and veggies you buy?    If the Price Look-Up, or PLU code only has four numbers this means that it was grown conventionally or “traditionally” with the use of pesticides.    If there are five numbers, and the number starts with “8?, this means that the item is genetically modified.    If there are five numbers, and the number starts with “9?, this means that it was grown organically and is not genetically modified.

Dirty Harry
http://cnsnews.com

Harry Reid, in talking about the sequester, believes the news media have an obligation to report that Republicans are unwilling to do what Americans want done.    Well, Harry, with all of the unconstitutional legislation passed over the past 12 years, from the Patriot Act to the NDAA, the same could be said for both political parties.   So, a plague on both your houses.

Index of Government Departments and Agencies
http://cnsnews.com

There is a huge number of Federal government departments and agencies.    There are 34 of them under the letter “A” alone.   Then there are all the state governments that are virtual duplicates.    Yet, there are those who say we cannot make the government any smaller.    Pretty sure I could find more than 2% from this index.

Finally, please prepare now for the escalating economic and social unrest.    Good Day!

China Breaches World Trade Rules
http://www.telegraph.co.uk

Washington has issued a blistering attack on China for persistent breaches of world trade rules.   China forces foreign firms to give up trade secrets in clear violation of WTO rules.    Of course, this should not be surprising coming from a communist nation that employs slave labor for manufacturing.    If not for the US debt that China owns, the obvious solution is to block all Chinese imports.

Ordinary Folks Losing Faith in Stocks
http://news.yahoo.com

More and more people are not trusting either the government or Wall Street.    Gee…  I wonder why…    Could it be that the legislation passed like the NDAA, or no real punishment, for MF Global or HSBC?    Could it be the continual lying by both bankers and politicians?    Could it be the false flags that are becoming more apparent?   Or, could it be all of these and more?

What Happens When the Bond Markets Turn Against the US?
http://gainspainscapital.com

The US Fed is committed to keeping interest rates low because if interest rates were to rise, debt payments would send the US into an EU-style debt crisis.    With that said, to increase profits, the bond markets want higher interest rates; thus, the battle between the Fed and the bond market is set.

The simple answer is no. In fact, for twenty dollars, you can get well on your way with rice, beans, and other necessities.    Focus on what you can do and block out the static of the herd.

Sweden’s War On Cash Stumbles
http://lewrockwell.com

The Swedish people, faced with a number of banks that refuse to use cash, are beginning to gain the upper hand.    In fact, despite the anti-cash propaganda spewed by private bankers and government officials, people are using cash in their daily transactions.    Perhaps it is because cash does not rely on the internet.   Perhaps it is because cash does not record peoples purchases.    Whatever the reason…    Keep using the physical and get out of the digital.

Finally, please prepare now for the escalating economic and social unrest.    Good Day!
