I see an economic diasater coming...

Those problems are slated to get much worse in the
not too distant future.  Nothing is left to chance...


The Group will be meeting soon to finalize the plan.

Quoted from the post immediately above...
"The continued presence of Bilderberg is just one more indication that banking elites do not intend to hide anymore.   Perhaps in this Internet era, they don't believe it's possible."
       I agree.  And I think they'll find their plans could be capable of unraveling without warning and without their hopes of remedy.   Conspirators like them are all on this planet with everyone else.   Even if they tried to hide under a  mountain in the Rockies similar to the Gov't hideout waiting for the President and member of Congress in a national emergency(correct location?), they'll find when they leave the 'hideout' they put themselves in, that there may not be an economic or political country to govern.   I believe this'll be more than a depression like the one in the Thirties.   Total collapse should be coming in the future.   However, time will tell, as the adage goes.

Paul Craig Roberts has a few words to say about the
"economy" of the U.S.

The economic picture is equally dismal and unpromising.  The latest payroll jobs report was even more awful than reported.  Hardly any new jobs were created, but what largely escaped reporting is the fact that the economy actually lost 59,000 full-time jobs.

Increasingly the US economy consists of part-time jobs that cannot support an independent existence. Thus, more Americans age 19-34 live at home with parents than independently with spouses or partners.  Fully half of 25-year old Americans live in their childhood rooms in their parents' homes.

This is the "New Economy" that the filthy lying neoliberal economists promised would be reward for the American work force giving up their manufacturing and professional skill jobs to foreigners.  What a monstrous lie the neoliberal economists told so that corporate executives and shareholders could put into their own pockets the living wage of the American work force. These neoliberal economists, and, alas, libertarian "free market" ones, have not been held accountable for their impoverishment of the American work force deeply buried in debt with no future prospects.

Those few Americans who have any awareness are beginning to realize that the One Percent and the western governments that serve them are re-establishing feudalism.  The brilliant and learned economist, Michael Hudson, has labeled our era the era of neo-feudalism.

He is correct. The majority of young Americans come out of university heavily indebted, primed for debtor prison. When half of 25-year olds cannot marry and form households, how can anyone believe that housing sales and prices are rising except as a result of speculative investors banking on rental income from a population that cannot even pay its student loans.

I think full-out nuclear war (mutually assured destruction) is off the table.
This would actually be the best case scenario.  THEY don't want us dead.
THEY want us locked into a permanent living hell while we are continually
used as target practice.  And like George Carlin said,

"And they'll get it too.  They'll get it all some day, because they own this f_cking place."


People refuse to accept they have been lied to, cheated and stolen from.
They cannot believe it, so to them, it didn't happen and is not happening.
They will never admit to themselves they have been outplayed, outconned
and overwhelmed.  They are incapable of getting angry.  Many just write
it off as God's will.  Soulless, spineless creatures scurrying the earth under
a constant barrage of attacks, never recognizing they have done this to
themselves.  Plenty pitiful.
