Kicking Spain Out?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk

While it was absolutely necessary to fall over backwards to help Greece, the same cannot be said for Spain, and soon Italy. Mario Draghi’s promise to do “whatever it takes” to save the euro may mean more urgent measures when it comes to Spain.    If being kicked out of the euro-zone is Spain’s only option, hopefully, they will follow Iceland’s example and remain free.

QE4? Banks Complaining QE3 Not Enough
http://www.hangthebankers.com

Surprise folks, the $40 billion a month is not enough to satisfy the crack heads on Wall Street.    For example, Adam Parker, of Morgan Stanly says that “QE3 will likely be insufficient to significantly boost equity markets…”    So what is the Fed going to do when the stock market crashes and the credit market freezes up like in 2008?    Announce QE4 and then very shortly after, these crackheads will start calling for QE5.

Silver is Hot
http://dollarcollapse.com

Tom Cloud, of the FTM Daily radio show and who has been in the precious metals business for three decades, says that the gold/silver ratio got out of kilter because central banks are buying a lot of gold in anticipation of Basel III making it a Tier One asset.    He says that he is seeing a lot of new buyers and those increasing their portfolio in precious metals percentage wise.    So, after preparing, keep stacking physical.

U.S. Consumer Spending Increases
http://www.reuters.com

The good news is that consumer spending increased 0.5 percent in August.   The bad news is that 70 percent of the increase was due to gas increasing by 28.2 cents per gallon.   Remember that energy price increases are not counted in the official inflation calculations.   Translation: stagflation.

America Turns to Mobile News
http://washingtonexaminer.com

According to a Pew Research Center survey, more people are turning to social network sites, online news and websites like Drudge Report to get their news.   Those getting their news from TV is down to 55 percent and only 23 percent read a newspaper.    Fully 29 percent of Americans under 25 said they didn’t pay attention to news.    A possible reason is that more and more people are sick and tired of being lied to being lied and intellectually insulted by these corporate has-beens.

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

120928 – Spain Becomes Greece

Spain Becomes Greece
http://www.bloomberg.com

Spanish Ministers meet to discuss the 2013 budget that will cut their deficit by at least 18 billion euros.    Needless to say, the increased cuts will impose more unneeded austerity; which in turn, will deflate the Spanish economy even more. Spanish bond yields, which rose by the most in two months, are above 6 percent.    This means that borrowing, by Spain, gets more expensive as Germany, the Netherlands, and Finland fight for austerity in Spain.    All this, as Spanish bank outflow continues, at a record 5%, in August.

Al Qaeda Responsible
http://www.nytimes.com

Who would have guessed that our allies, Al Qaeda, were responsible for the September 11th attacks on the US consulate in Libya.    That is what was suggested by Hillary Clinton.    She did not offer any new evidence since the FBI still has been doing their investigation state-side of the attack in Africa.    Like Nixon, what did Obama, Clinton, and Susan Rice know and when did they know it?

Fed Virtually Monetizing US Deficit
http://www.cnbc.com

According to Lawrence Lindsey, if quantitative easing, by the FED, has become the new normal, then what happens when a another crisis hits?    The central bank’s recently announced bid to stimulate the economy has also has taken some pressure off of politicians, in both parties, to deal with the U.S. fiscal cliff that starts in January.    The latest round of extraordinary Federal Reserve stimulus is risky and leaves little room to maneuver when the next disaster hits.   Speaking of disasters….

1.25% Second Quarter GDP for US
http://www.zerohedge.com

The fourth quarter GDP of 2011 was 4.1% and the first quarter GDP was 2 percent.     Now for the second quarter of 2012, it is coming in at a ridiculously low 1.25%.    Add to this, the fact that durable goods orders crashed 13.2% and one wonders…    How anyone can say, with a straight face that we are on the road to recovery is amazing.     Yet, we have both Obama and Romney saying the economy is improving.     Yep, these two buffoons apparently want us to stay the course.

Silver Is Outshining Gold by a 2-to-1
http://finance.yahoo.com

Gold may have more prestige and a broader fan base, but experts say, silver is where the real action is.    Gold and silver are becoming a foundation investment; thus, the demand will become the “Must Have” investment to survive.    Coupling this with emerging market demand and silver, because it is cheaper to get now, is more in demand than gold.    Just a warning, do not invest in ETF’s believing that you are getting the physical without the storage problems.

US Bank Run Imminent As FDIC Expanded Deposit Insurance Ends December
http://www.silverdoctors.com

As of January 2013 the FDIC stops offering 100% coverage for all insured deposits.    That amounts to $1.6 trillion in deposits.    This could lead to bank runs much larger than the Euro banks flight to safety.

4th Muni Bankruptcy Looms in California
http://www.zerohedge.com

Atwater, California to join 4 other counties to become the 4th Muni bankruptcy is up for vote on October 3rd.   This cash starved city is in need of Obama money.    Anyway, one can only imagine what will happen right after the elections in early November for other cities, and counties,
across the nation.

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

Courtesy of the unsuspecting German public, they are about to fund the bloc’s permanent bailout fund to more than 2 trillion euros and rescue big countries if necessary.

Fed May Need to Boost QE ‘Dramatically’
http://www.cnbc.com

If economic and corporate news continues to deteriorate, the FED may juice up its quantitative easing. As it stands, the latest round of easing will see the Fed create $40 billion a month out of thin air. Of course, its not like Bernanke is declaring war on the Canadian economy… Wait, he is because QE hurts exports from Canada to the US.

War In The Gold & Silver Markets
http://kingworldnews.com

James Turk believes that there is a fierce battle taking place between the bulls and the bears in the gold and silver markets. It appears that physical buyers of gold and silver are gaining the upper hand, while shorts and central planners are losing. None of the underlying reasons for the bull market have gone away. In fact, mining shares are starting to do better than the precious metals themselves – which is bullish for the metal themselves. Remember, after preparing, keep stacking physical.

Michelle Obama’s New Lunch Menu
http://townhall.com

Here are some of the repercussions of the First Wookie’s err. Lady’s Lunch program.
1. Costs per plate, that has food that kids are revolted by, have increased 20 to 25 cents.
2. Capitalist kids are black-marketing chocolate syrup by the squeeze.
3. Elementary children are actually thumbing their noses up at hummus and black bean salads and are having hunger pains through the day.
4. Kids are blaming the government for their hunger and government officials are acting like children blaming the kids.
Michelle… Go back to gardening and leave the children alone… You pervert.

Howard Stern
http://www.youtube.com

Howard Stern does it again with his Man-on-the-street interview of Obama supporters.
Did you know that Obama is pro-life, anti-gay marriage, a Mormon, and chose Paul Ryan, who is black, as his Vice President?
Did you know that Mitt Romney is black and is pro-gay marriage?
Did you know that we are still hunting for Osama Bin Laden?
Did you know that John McCain may get 40% of the vote in the coming election?
Do you really believe that these people interviewed are shining examples of our education system?
Needless to say, one could easily find just as brilliant supporters for Romney as well.

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