“A Tremendous Secret”

These are the kind of things I love, but at the same time hate to hear….

Now, at least three things can be gleaned from all this:
1) FOFOA is right that the world’s governments stand to gain most from a surprise devaluation, since it will prevent us commoners from preemptively swapping our paper for real things, setting off an inflation that would make an even deeper devaluation necessary.

There’s a rumor that I was reluctant to mention when it first started circulating, because it seemed a little too far down the tin foil hat / black helicopter road. But in this context it seems pretty reasonable. According to widely-followed newsletter writers Harry Schultz and Bob Chapman:

”Some US embassies worldwide are being advised to purchase massive amounts of local currencies; enough to last them a year. Some embassies are being sent enormous amounts of US cash to purchase currencies from those govts, quietly. But not £’s. Inside the State Dept there is a sense of sadness & foreboding that ‘something’ is about to happen, unknown re a date—just that within 180 days, but could be 120-150 days.”

Bob quotes another source that “Panasonic has told their people to be back in Japan by Sept 09.”

Harry Schultz’s remarkable take on the situation:
“My HSL suspicion is that the elite plan another FDR style “bank holiday” of indefinite length, perhaps very soon, to let the insiders sort-out the bank mess which is getting more out of their control every day. Insiders want/need to impose new bank rules. Widespread nationalization could result, already under way. It could also lead to a formal US$ devaluation, as FDR did by revaluing gold (& then confiscating it). But devalue against what? The euro? Doubtful. Gold? Maybe. Or vs. the IMF basket of currencies (which seems more likely)—& much in the news recently.

Any kind of bank holiday will push the US$ lower, which may be a bonus benefit to their ongoing scenario of letting the $ fall. Such a fall would get the devaluation they want without having to declare it. In sum, the insiders want more bank & system control, fewer banks & a lower US$. A bank holiday would suit all their needs.”

2) The details of the plan will spread within an ever-widening circle of banking and government folks who, like Sir Robert, will demand the chance to profit from the insider trade of the century. Because such a secret is impossible to contain for long, once in place the plan has to be executed as soon as possible.

3) If the rest of us play it right, we’ll be able to at least protect ourselves, and maybe even make out (in percentage terms at least) like Goldman Sachs no doubt will.

BOOK REVIEW: The County Sheriff – America’s Last Hope

Mack explains his own transformation from a “jerk” cop into what a sheriff should be. If he can make the transition, so can your sheriff. This book is the road map to get there.

If America continues to give up her freedoms to the U.S. of A, where then will the unjustifiably persecuted of the world go? Any ideas? I wonder if there is some sort of group or institute that has already defined what constitutes more or less freedom and measured numerous G-8 and non G-8 countries against them, would/is America still the “most free” nation on earth?

Currency collapses since the War for Southern Independence

The US has not had a currency collapse since 1861, since that time there has been many other nations that have fallen victim to this vice, Germany, Vietnam, Argentina, Yugoslavia, and finally, Zimbabwe just to name a few.
History is about to give the US a reminder of what we’ve forgotten:

Most people don’t spend any amount of time thinking about the value of the dollar. It has never occurred to nine out of 10 Americans that the last 35 years mark the first time in recorded history that every major financial power in the world operated with fiat (paper) money in the absence of a World War. No monetary backstop exists anywhere no limit in any country to the amount of paper the government can create on a whim. Meanwhile, the track record of every experiment with fiat money is 100% perfect: In every case, the currency regime was eventually destroyed by an inflationary crisis.

I worry about the middle class, people who generally lack the financial knowledge and resources to protect their savings. They will probably believe the lies they’re told by the mainstream press about greedy speculators and evil oil companies. They will almost surely support the policies and the politicians who are actually responsible for their increasing poverty.

I also worry about people who are retired and depending on the government to support them. They will surely see their standard of living decline substantially.

And finally, I worry most of all about my infant son. Will he grow up in a vastly different kind of America than I did? He could. And that makes me saddest of all.
