il Salto del Gatto Morto

"The cycle we are in is non-interruptible, too. Even if they wanted to, the central bankers could not stave off what now has become inevitable, because they have exhausted the means of supporting the economic bubbles they created: lowering interest rates (already negative when inflation is factored in) and expanding the money supply (Herculean quantities were added in 2004 with no effect other than to maintain the status quo for a brief additional period - raining money down from helicopters would be the next step, but that would lead to hyperinflation just as surely as will interest rates already set to rise by demand of the world economy). Record personal and corporate bankruptcies are occurring. Major auto companies, who really make their money financing the sale of their cars, and America's major federally-guaranteed mortgage lenders all are insolvent, though operating on cash flow for the time being. Their eventual bankruptcy now is a foregone conclusion. In the face of a real estate/mortgage bubble, America is experiencing record foreclosures by banks of their loans to American homeowners, ranchers and small businessmen. Bad though that already is, what it portends for the future is positively hair raising."

così scriveva Edgar J. Steele nel 2004 in Defensive Racism ...

e ora lo stesso autore si complimenta con se stesso per la preveggenza e ne annuncia una nuova... "il carrello da miniera su cui stiamo viaggiando all'impazzata senza freni incontrerà la fine dei binari sul ciglio dell'abisso nei prossimi mesi, o comunque entro 2 anni..."

e poi fantastico! questa è da salvare per i posteri...
" As I said, be very afraid. Word came out this past week that Mountain House, a premier supplier of long-term storage food, had its entire stock for the next two years bought up by some mysterious government agency. This is the second food-storage company in the past month to tell this tale. What does that tell you? They are making sure that they take care of themselves (using our tax and inflationed-away dollars, naturally). Once again, what is it that we all get? (The shaft, of course.)"

questa fa il paio con la notizia delle 500mila bare di plastica... c'è qualcuno negli States che fa incetta di cibo in scatola, e predispone 500mila feretri vicino a un grosso aeroporto... ma cosa accidenti bolle in pentola?!?!?

... che dire? condivido... ci separa solo il fatto che io so dove cercare la via d'uscita... ciò che scarseggia un po' è il tempo... staremo a vedere!
